Heating with Wolves Cooling with Cacti Thermo-bio-architectural Framework (ThBA)

Heating with Wolves Cooling with Cacti Thermo-bio-architectural Framework (ThBA)

This book describes the detailed process behind the development of a comprehensive thermo-bio-architectural framework (the ThBA). This framework systematically connects the thermal performance requirements of a building to relevant solutions found in the natural world. This is the first time that architecture has been connected to biology in this manner. The book provides an in-depth understanding of thermoregulatory strategies in animals and plants and links these to equivalent solutions in architectural design. The inclusion of this fundamental knowledge along with the systematic process of accessing it should open up new avenues for the generation of energy efficient and sustainable buildings. | Heating with Wolves Cooling with Cacti Thermo-bio-architectural Framework (ThBA)

Therapy with Children An Existential Perspective

Therapy with Children An Existential Perspective

This book explores the existential themes and challenges present in all therapeutic relationships when working with children. Existential ideas and concepts are a rapidly growing influence on the practice of psychotherapy and yet their application to work with children remains largely unexplored. This book begins to redress this imbalance in a practical and engaging way by presenting an existential perspective on some key themes in practicing psychotherapy with children including: play anxiety guilt choice family relationships language and process. Each chapter is punctuated with engaging vignettes of case material blending theoretical insight with the realities of practice. Through these narratives readers are challenged to question their own assumptions and beliefs whether they are new to existential psychotherapy or already immersed in its rich philosophical traditions. Children are born into the world without choice and are drawn towards making connections with others developing self-awareness and personal identity. | Therapy with Children An Existential Perspective

Understanding Optics with Python

Understanding Optics with Python

Optics is an enabling science that forms a basis for our technological civilization. Courses in optics are a required part of the engineering or physics undergraduate curriculum in many universities worldwide. The aim of Understanding Optics with Python is twofold: first to describe certain basic ideas of classical physical and geometric optics; second to introduce the reader to computer simulations of physical phenomena. The text is aimed more broadly for those who wish to use numerical/computational modeling as an educational tool that promotes interactive teaching (and learning). In addition it offers an alternative to developing countries where the necessary equipment to carry out the appropriate experiments is not available as a result of financial constraints. This approach contributes to a better diffusion of knowledge about optics. The examples given in this book are comparable to those found in standard textbooks on optics and are suitable for self-study. This text enables the user to study and understand optics using hands-on simulations with Python. Python is our programming language of choice because of its open-source availability extensive functionality and an enormous online support. Essentials of programming in Python 3. x including graphical user interface are also provided. The codes in the book are available for download on the book’s website. Discusses most standard topics of traditional physical and geometrical optics through Python and PyQt5 Provides visualizations and in-depth descriptions of Python’s programming language and simulations Includes simulated laboratories where students are provided a hands-on exploration of Python software Coding and programming featured within the text are available for download on the book’s corresponding website. Understanding Optics with Python by Vasudevan Lakshminarayanan Hassen Ghalila Ahmed Ammar and L. Srinivasa Varadharajan is born around a nice idea: using simulations to provide the students with a powerful tool to understand and master optical phenomena. The choice of the Python language is perfectly matched with the overall goal of the book as the Python language provides a completely free and easy-to-learn platform with huge cross-platform compatibility where the reader of the book can conduct his or her own numerical experiments to learn faster and better. — Costantino De Angelis University of Brescia Italy Teaching an important programming language like Python through concrete examples from optics is a natural and in my view very effective approach. I believe that this book will be used by students and appreciated greatly by instructors. The topic of modelling optical effects and systems where the students should already have a physical background provides great motivation for students to learn the basics of a powerful programming language without the intimidation factor that often goes with a formal computer science course. — John Dudley FEMTO-ST Institute Besançon France

Fortran 2018 with Parallel Programming

Fortran 2018 with Parallel Programming

The programming language Fortran dates back to 1957 when a team of IBM engineers released the first Fortran Compiler. During the past 60 years the language had been revised and updated several times to incorporate more features to enable writing clean and structured computer programs. The present version is Fortran 2018. Since the dawn of the computer era there had been a constant demand for a “larger” and “faster” machine. To increase the speed there are three hurdles. The density of the active components on a VLSI chip cannot be increased indefinitely and with the increase of the density heat dissipation becomes a major problem. Finally the speed of any signal cannot exceed the velocity of the light. However by using several inexpensive processors in parallel coupled with specialized software and hardware programmers can achieve computing speed similar to a supercomputer. This book can be used to learn the modern Fortran from the beginning and the technique of developing parallel programs using Fortran. It is for anyone who wants to learn Fortran. Knowledge beyond high school mathematics is not required. There is not another book on the market yet which deals with Fortran 2018 as well as parallel programming. FEATURES Descriptions of majority of Fortran 2018 instructions Numerical Model String with Variable Length IEEE Arithmetic and Exceptions Dynamic Memory Management Pointers Bit handling C-Fortran Interoperability Object Oriented Programming Parallel Programming using Coarray Parallel Programming using OpenMP Parallel Programming using Message Passing Interface (MPI) THE AUTHOR Dr Subrata Ray is a retired Professor Indian Association for the Cultivation of Science Kolkata. | Fortran 2018 with Parallel Programming

Counseling Boys and Men with ADHD

Counseling Boys and Men with ADHD

Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder primarily affects boys and male teens and the symptoms can continue on into adulthood. Consequently clinicians need to be well-versed in techniques to treat this disorder that are tailored specifically to the needs of males; there are however few resources available to them. This guidebook provides a review of the counseling educational and medical interventions that can benefit boys and men with ADHD. Kapalka begins with a review of symptoms etiology assessment and diagnosis and then discusses a variety of specific interventions: individual counseling parenting techniques classroom interventions and group counseling techniques. The use of medication in conjunction with counseling is also considered. Throughout all of the topics covered Kapalka emphasizes what it is like to be male and have ADHD and describes the impacts that masculinity and gender expectations can have on the expression of and response to the disorder. | Counseling Boys and Men with ADHD
