Flying Fresh

The Air Logistics Cool Supply Chain

A kaleidoscopic and original new history of urbanization—from Lisbon to New York, Paris to Rio de Janeiro, and Buenos Aires to Lagos For the past three centuries, urban dwellers and planners have imagined future cities that would be radically different from those of the past. Planners pursued progress, whether focused on flying vehicles above, sewage systems below, or daily life in between. Yet, as Bruno Carvalho shows in this original and wide-ranging history, which features some sixty illustrations, modern cities continuously defied predictions. Visionary designs and technological innovations created dramatic, unforeseen outcomes, and the ongoing urban boom is a story of continuity as well as rupture. A compelling history of imagined futures and the transformation of urban life, The Invention of the Future also suggests what we might learn from the stories of our cities as we shape them for the twenty-first century. Moving between large-scale changes and detailed examples, this captivating narrative tells the story of key moments and turning points: the rebuilding of Lisbon after the 1755 earthquake; the 1811 Commissioners’ Plan for Manhattan; Parisian reforms from 1853 to 1870; Le Corbusier’s plans for South American cities in the 1920s and 1930s; the postwar victory of the car; the utopian capital of Brasília; and urban growth in Africa. In recent decades, Carvalho argues, the capacity to invent urban futures has become increasingly constrained. Social and environmental challenges loom large. But the story is not over. While cities helped create current problems, compact and transit-rich urbanization might be our best hope to combine high living standards with sustainability. Sometimes, moving forward can involve reaching back to the future.

An exciting and illuminating discussion of the latest advancements in space travel, exploration, technology, and infrastructure In New Space: From Low Earth Orbit to the Moon and Beyond, renowned physicist and space entrepreneur Stephen Cheung delivers a comprehensive overview of the current state of--and opportunities offered by--the space infrastructure industry, while Prof. Chih-Yung Wen and his team members discuss the basics of reusable rockets and the most important subsystems within these advanced rockets, including subjects like delta-V, specific impulses, thrust-to-weight ratio, and introducing the Mars Missions. Cheung further explains new green energy technology that collects sunlight in geostationary orbits and then beams back the power in the form of microwaves. He also discusses how asteroids are categorized and targeted by missions with the goal of demonstrating new technology or collecting samples. Readers will also find: <ul> <li>A thorough introduction to new space infrastructure, destinations, refueling, and business considerations</li> <li>Comprehensive explorations of rockets, orbits, and low orbit satellites and space stations</li> <li>Practical discussions of reuseable rockets and low-earth orbit satellite internet constellations</li> <li>Complete treatments of precision agriculture, space tourism, space debris removal, and the settling of the moon and Mars</li> </ul> Perfect for anyone with an interest in recent developments in space exploration and technology, New Space: From Low Earth Orbit to the Moon and Beyond will also benefit science and engineering students seeking careers in the space industry.

Rules of Thumb for Reservoir Engineers

This book aims to provide the background knowledge, necessary tools, and guidelines for rationalized and consistent engineering approaches to design and construction in and on jointed and faulted rock. Three avenues will be exploited to that effect: mechanics, empiricism and analysis (including numerical analysis). The text will be permeated with informative and illustrated case records from the authors' total of 40 countries sphere of experience. Solutions of every-day problems will be interspersed with experiences from the longest tunnel, the widest cavern, the highest dam, the site of the largest underground power house, and the problems with the deepest TBM tunnels.

Engineering in Jointed and Faulted Rock aims to provide the background knowledge, necessary tools, and guidelines for rationalized and consistent engineering approaches to design and construction in and on jointed and faulted rock. Three avenues will be exploited to that effect: mechanics, empiricism and analysis (including numerical analysis).The book is uniquely dedicated to the theme of engineering in jointed rock to a much greater degree than earlier texts in rock mechanics and rock engineering, and there will be fundamental treatment and examples of the characterization, strength, deformability and permeability of joints and, in separate chapters, the same for rock masses. These fundamentals will be followed by their application in numerical models, for developing the engineering design for rock slopes, tunnels, bridge foundations, dam abutments, nuclear waste disposal, mine shafts and roadways. Empirical design will be validated and improved by numerical modelling where necessary.The text will be permeated with informative and illustrated case records from the authors’ total of 40 countries sphere of experience. Solutions of every-day problems will be interspersed with experiences from the longest tunnel, the widest cavern, the highest dam, the site of the largest underground power house, and the problems with the deepest TBM tunnels.This much needed text on the mechanics of jointed rock, based on extensive experiments and measurements both in the laboratory and in the field, will be indispensable for the rock engineering and rock mechanics community.
