Research Tracks in Urbanism: Dynamics Planning and Design in Contemporary Urban Territories

Research Tracks in Urbanism: Dynamics Planning and Design in Contemporary Urban Territories

Maybe the Global Village metaphor has never been more accurate than it is today where societies join forces in the fight against the COVID 19 pandemic in a global coordinated effort possibly never tested before in the known history of Humankind. Although we are sure that in the past some other shared demands have united the different peoples of the world this has never been so strongly necessary mainly in what the global scientific community is concerned. This is a fight for the survival of a society. However we should not lose sight of what we are fighting for. We fight together for people. Not just for the abstract value of Human life but for life in society as a whole including its moral and ethical aspects. The topics of this book are based on this claim on what makes it possible. We do not build our lives in a vacuum or in distant Invisible Cities but through a higher value which represents physical life in society: the City built by the discipline of Urbanism. This book is a spin-off of the International Research Seminar on Urbanism_SIIU2020. Inspired by the contents of twelve research seminars a group of researchers from the universities of Barcelona Lisbon and São Paulo discuss the contemporary agenda of research in Urbanism. Following the conference a selection of 35 original double-blind peer-reviewed research papers were brought together with different perspectives about such an agenda. | Research Tracks in Urbanism: Dynamics Planning and Design in Contemporary Urban Territories

Tissue Type Plasminogen Activity Volume I

Tissue Type Plasminogen Activity Volume I

This book is made possible by the enthusiastic contributions of the authors of the chapters. They have been invited from young and active scientists in the field of t-PA research. I am grateful for their contribution and for the fact that all accepted the specifications of their chapter in order to obtain a structured book. Inevitably some overlap does exist; on the one hand to enable controversial or unsettled areas to be discussed by the different experts with a different approach and background. It is a particular pleasure and honor that Dr. T. Astrup as an eye-witness and essential contributor to the history of t-PA discovery and research gives a unique account of the history of t-PA research in the first chapter of the book. | Tissue Type Plasminogen Activity Volume I

The Distributed Functions of Emergency Management and Homeland Security An Assessment of Professions Involved in Response to Disasters and T

The Distributed Functions of Emergency Management and Homeland Security An Assessment of Professions Involved in Response to Disasters and T

The Distributed Functions of Emergency Management and Homeland Security outlines the roles and responsibilities of various individuals and agencies involved in homeland security and all aspects of emergency management. Each chapter focuses on the practical and applied aspects of a range of public servants in various departments and the organizations that they represent. Rather than presenting a theoretical exploration alone the book examines the practical knowledge and hands-on skills related to various functions and how their decisions and actions play into the larger framework of safety and security —in the public private and nonprofit sectors. Every professional has a unique and integral part to play in fulfilling their roles and obligations whether it be in relation to prevention mitigation preparedness response or recovery operations. Personnel that frequently come to mind in such scenarios include emergency managers geographers and land-use planners EMTs and paramedics fire fighters police officers public health officials nurses public administrators and public information officers. And while these individuals are integral to homeland security and emergency management there are other professionals that also perform essential duties that—while they aren’t first-to-mind—are vital to efforts relating to terrorism and disasters; this includes pilots in the aviation sector the military attorneys psychologists and forensic professionals serving in pathology DNA and dentistry roles. Chapters provide a holistic rendering of the homeland security and emergency management landscape to present all these various professional capabilities and contributions. This includes how current functions are coordinated as well as how future efforts might change relative to a more proactive all-hazards and holistic approach. As such the book will be a useful resource for students and practitioners to understand the dynamic professions—and various disciplines and fields—that impact disaster and terrorism preparedness and response capabilities. | The Distributed Functions of Emergency Management and Homeland Security An Assessment of Professions Involved in Response to Disasters and T

Vibrations and Waves

Vibrations and Waves

The M. I. T. Introductory Physics Series is the result of a program of careful study planning and development that began in 1960. The Education Research Center at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (formerly the Science Teaching Center) was established to study the process of instruction aids thereto and the learning process itself with special reference to science teaching at the university level. Generous support from a number of foundations provided the means for assembling and maintaining an experienced staff to co-operate with members of the Institute's Physics Department in the examination improvement and development of physics curriculum materials for students planning careers in the sciences. After careful analysis of objectives and the problems involved preliminary versions of textbooks were prepared tested through classroom use at M. I. T. and other institutions re-evaluated rewritten and tried again. Only then were the final manuscripts undertaken. | Vibrations and Waves

Management of Hazardous Energy Deactivation De-Energization Isolation and Lockout

Management of Hazardous Energy Deactivation De-Energization Isolation and Lockout

Hazardous energy present in systems machines and equipment has injured maimed and killed many workers. One serious injury can stop the growth of your business in its tracks. Management of Hazardous Energy: Deactivation De-Energization Isolation and Lockout provides the practical tools needed to assess hazardous energy in equipment machines and systems and covers how to manage hazardous energy through elimination or control in order to ensure worker safety and regulatory compliance. Written in plain English with a minimum of jargon this book provides safety professionals with the knowledge they need to interact with specialists designers and engineers to ensure that appropriate and necessary protocols and safety practices and tools are put into place for assessing the dangers and steps taken to eliminate or control exposure to hazardous energy when needed. Approaching the subject from the bottom up the author starts at the workplace level to ensure that the right actions happen for the right reasons. The book explains a protocol for describing the flow of energy including transformation and/or storage; for capturing the logic of decisions about control including failure analysis and contingency planning; and ultimately for creating procedures that are technically sound and defensible. Creating simple procedures for ensuring worker safety and regulatory compliance the book offers US and international strategies for hazardous energy management and contains examples to illustrate the application of concepts to specific areas. | Management of Hazardous Energy Deactivation De-Energization Isolation and Lockout
