 | | Composites for Construction: Structural Design with FRP MaterialsFiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composite materials have developed into economically and structurally viable construction materials for buildings and bridges over the last 20 years. FRP composite materials used in structural engineering typically consist of glass, carbon, or aramid fibers encased in a matrix of epoxy, polyester, vinylester, or... | | Long-term Effects of Sewage Sludge and Farm Slurries ApplicationsPrevious seminars organised by the working party under the auspices of the EEC Concerted Action have been devoted to the evaluation of the nitrogen, phosphorus and organic matter content of sewage sludges, almost invariably over the twelve month period of application. Depending on the type of sludge they have been shown to be useful sources of... |

| | Introduction to Environmental Analysis (Analytical Techniques in the Sciences)Global awareness of the importance of monitoring and protecting our environment has grown considerably over the last ten years. Environmental concerns are now an integral part of today's legislation, product design and development, waste minimization and disposal. As well as background monitoring of the environment, scientists are involved in... | | Material Substructures in Complex Bodies: From Atomic Level to ContinuumStringent industrial requirements for sophisticated performance and circumstantial control of microdevices or nanotechnology manufacturing, and other types of machinery at multiple scales, require complex materials. The adjective 'complex' indicates that the substructure influences gross mechanical behaviour in a prominent way and interactions due... |

Learning, Working and Living: Mapping the Terrain of Working Life LearningDebate about organization and workplace learning has now moved on from viewing learning as a way of fostering control. This book suggests that by focusing on learning as a way of living, the needs of production can be reconciled with the need for employees to have satisfying engagement with their work.
This book draws together two... | | Low Temperatures And Cold MoleculesNew, unexpected and largely unexplored physical phenomena occur in systems cooled to very low temperatures. The background temperature in the universe is approximately 2.7 K, but much lower temperatures have now been obtained in the laboratory. This book reviews the progress in a number of related fields in which the common themes are low... | | Principles of Measurement SystemsMeasurement is an essential activity in every branch of technology and science. We need to know the speed of a car, the temperature of our working environment, the flow rate of liquid in a pipe, the amount of oxygen dissolved in river water. It is important, therefore, that the study of measurement forms part of engineering and... |
