  • Managing Urban Rivers

    From Planning to Practice
    • 1st Edition
    • Victor R. Shinde + 3 more
    • English
    Managing Urban Rivers: From Planning to Practice captures the different facets of river management required for integrating rivers within the development landscape of cities in a sustainable manner. Sections cover the entire spectrum of urban river management, from planning to actual on-the-ground implementation, providing a one-stop destination for knowledge on urban river management. Edited by a team of four experts with practical experience in this domain, the different chapters of the book are authored by eminent scholars and practitioners with expertise in specific areas of urban river management. Urban rivers and their management is a hot topic as governments across the world are focusing on this aspect, especially since it has direct implications for SDG target 6.6, which aims to “protect and restore water-related ecosystems, including mountains, forests, wetlands, rivers, aquifers and lakes”.

  • Practical Programming of Finite Element Procedures for Solids and Structures with MATLAB®

    From Elasticity to Plasticity
    • 1st Edition
    • Salar Farahmand-Tabar + 1 more
    • English
    Practical Programming of Finite Element Procedures for Solids and Structures with MATLAB®: From Elasticity to Plasticity provides readers with step-by-step programming processes and applications of the finite element method (FEM) in MATLAB®, as well as the underlying theory. The hands-on approach covers a number of structural problems such as linear analysis of solids and structural elements, as well as nonlinear subjects, including elastoplasticity and hyperelasticity. Each chapter begins with foundational topics to provide a solid understanding of the subject and then progresses to more complicated problems with supporting examples for constructing the appropriate program.The book focuses on topics commonly encountered in civil, mechanical, and aerospace engineering, with special situations in structural analysis, 2D and 3D solids with various mesh elements, surface and body loading, incremental solution process, elastoplasticity, and finite deformation hyperelastic analysis each covered. Code that can be implemented and further extended is also provided.

  • Tropical Cyclones

    Observations and Basic Processes
    • 1st Edition

    • Roger K. Smith + 1 more
    • English
    Tropical cyclones are a major threat to life and property, even in the formative stages of their development. They include a number of different hazards that individually can cause significant impacts, such as extreme winds, storm surge, flooding, tornadoes, and lightning. Tropical Cyclones: Observations and Basic Processes provides a modern overview of the theory and observations of tropical cyclone structure and behavior.The book begins by summarizing key observations of the structure, evolution, and formation of tropical cyclones. It goes on to develop a theoretical foundation for a basic understanding of tropical cyclone behavior during the storm’s life cycle. Horizontally two-dimensional dynamics of vortex motion and other non-axisymmetric features are considered first before tackling the axisymmetric balance dynamics involving the overturning circulation. Following a review of moist convective processes, later chapters focus mainly on a range of three-dimensional aspects of the tropical cyclone life cycle. Building from first principles, the book provides a state-of-the-art summary of the fundamentals of tropical cyclones aimed at advanced undergraduates, graduate students, tropical meteorologists, and researchers.Members of the Royal Meteorological Society are eligible for a 35% discount on all Developments in Weather and Climate Science series titles.

  • Netter's Atlas of Human Embryology

    • 2nd Edition
    • Larry R. Cochard + 1 more
    • English
    Illustrated by the world-renowned Frank H. Netter, MD and artists working in his tradition, Netter's Atlas of Human Embryology, Second Edition, provides a rich pictorial overview of human prenatal development. For each stage of development and for each body system, you'll find a brief description of the developmental plan, with key concepts and terminology, followed by discussions of histological principles, the classification of congenital anomalies, and basic cellular, molecular, and genetic concepts. An emphasis on morphological patterns in the embryo and fetus makes it easy to understand the structure and function of the adult body and the embryonic basis of natural variation as well as birth anomalies.

  • Synthesis of 6- and 7-Membered Heterocycles

    The Role of DMF
    • 1st Edition
    • Navjeet Kaur
    • English
    Synthesis of Six- and Seven-Membered Heterocycles: The Role of DMF and its Synthesis compares different synthetic approaches using DMF, including the advantages and disadvantages of those reactions, green methods, and the sustainability of reported synthetic methodologies, especially the microwave methods. The book presents several methodologies for the synthesis of six- and seven-membered heterocyclic compounds using dimethylformamide. Users will find the most up-to-date information in this fast-moving field which can be particularly challenging. With DMF drawing the attention of synthetic organic chemists, this book will help readers understand further developments in the uses of dimethylformamide beyond just its use as a polar solvent. As it can be expected that the use of dimethylformamide as a precursor will continue to grow in organic synthesis with new applications in sustainable and green chemistry, this book provides an ideal primer on the topics covered.
