release predict aerosol rainou
ISBN: 9780816907458 / Angielski / Twarda / 1998 / 206 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book documents CCPS's Aerosol Research Program to develop a model to predict liquid rainout from release of a pressurized, liquefied gas--and, hence the residual amount of material in a vapor cloud, which may be greater than the amount calculated from an enthalpy chart. RELEASE predicts the rate of fluid discharge, the depressurization, flashing and formation of liquid drops, the entrainment of drops into the vapor cloud, the subsequent spreading of the jet, and rate of liquid rainout to a pool on the ground. Designed in a modular fashion to permit adjustment and corrections as new data...

Fort Amanda - A Historical Redress
ISBN: 9781547194759 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 382 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. A "redress" is defined as a "remedy to set things right." That is the purpose of this book. Much of what has been written about Fort Amanda during the past 100 years has been a repeat of what others had written before; namely, that Col. Thomas Poage built the fort and named it for his wife, Amanda, that a Captain at the fort was murdered by Indians while gathering grapes in a nearby tree and that war records were destroyed when the British burned government buildings in Washington, D.C. in 1814. None of those claims are true. In the early 1970s, armed with new information, I began a study of...

ISBN: 9780195382457 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 544 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Today, two-thirds of the world's nations have abolished the death penalty, either officially or in practice, due mainly to the campaign to end state executions led by Western European nations. Will this success spread to Asia, where over 95 percent of executions now occur? Do Asian values and traditions support capital punishment, or will development and democratization end executions in the world's most rapidly developing region? David T. Johnson, an expert on law and society in Asia, and Franklin E. Zimring, a senior authority on capital punishment, combine detailed case studies of the...

Posing a powerful challenge to dominant trends in cultural analysis, this book covers the whole history of the concept of culture, providing the broadest study of this notion to date. Johnson and Michaelsen examine the principal methodological strategies or metaphors of anthropology in the past two decades (embodied in works by Edward Said, James Clifford, George Marcus, V. Y. Mudimbe, and others) and argues that they do not manage to escape anthropology's grounding in representational practices. To the extent that it remains a practice of representation, anthropology, however complex,...

In the spring of 1944, Adolf Hitler firmly believed that the Allies would invade the Continent by landing troops on the beaches of Normandy, but anti-Nazi officers in German Intelligence ultimately persuaded him that Normandy would be a mere diversion.

The information context of the modern organization is rapidly evolving in the face of intense global competition. Information technologies, including databases, new telecommunications systems, and software for synthesizing information, make a vast array of information available to an ever expanding number of organizational members. Management's exclusive control over knowledge is steadily declining, in part because of the downsizing of organizations and the decline of the number of layers in an organizational hierarchy. These trends, as well as issues surrounding the Web 2.0 and social...
