Sinopsis del Libro

Libro Biomimicry for Materials, Design and Habitats

Biomimicry for Materials, Design and Habitats: Innovations and Applications and is a survey of the recent work of recognized experts in a variety of fields who employ biomimicry and related paradigms to solve key problems of interest within design, science, technology, and society. Topics covered include innovations from biomimicry in materials, product design, architecture, and biological sciences. The book is a useful resource for educators, designers, researchers, engineers, and materials scientists, taking them from the theory behind biomimicry to real world applications. Living systems have evolved innovative solutions to challenges that humans face on a daily basis. Nonlinear multifunctional systems that have a symbiotic relationship with their environment are the domain of nature. Morphological solutions for buildings inspired by nature can be used for skins, surfaces, and structures to facilitate environmental adaptation of buildings to increase occupant comfort and reduce energy demands. Birds can teach us to produce novel structures, 3D printing can be informed by oysters and mussels, and mycelium may show us the way to fabricate new biocomposites in architecture. Therefore, it is in nature that we seek inspiration for the solutions to tomorrow’s challenges. Presents new directions in education and the various applications of biomimicry within industry, including bio-inspired entrepreneurship Discusses the role of biomimicry in education, innovation, and product design Covers applications in systems engineering and design, novel materials with applications in 3D printing, and bio-inspired architecture Includes perspectives on sustainability detailing the role that bio-inspiration or biomimicry plays in sustainability

Practical Design of Reinforced Concrete Buildings

Libro Practical Design of Reinforced Concrete Buildings

This book will provide comprehensive, practical knowledge for the design of reinforced concrete buildings. The approach will be unique as it will focus primarily on the design of various structures and structural elements as done in design offices with an emphasis on compliance with the relevant codes. It will give an overview of the integrated design of buildings and explain the design of various elements such as slabs, beams, columns, walls, and footings. It will be written in easy-to-use format and refer to all the latest relevant American codes of practice (IBC and ASCE) at every stage....

El Sindicato de Trabajadores Petroleros y sus relaciones con PEMEX y el Estado, 1970-1985

Libro El Sindicato de Trabajadores Petroleros y sus relaciones con PEMEX y el Estado, 1970-1985

Despu s de su creaci n en 1935 y particularmente a ra z de su participaci n en la expropiaci n petrolera de 1938, muy pocos sindicatos han tenido tanta gravitaci n en la vida pol tica y sindical de M xico como el de los trabajadores petroleros. Esta importancia, gradualmente significativa en relaci n con el papel estrat gico que el petr leo lleg a desempe ar en la econom a y desarrollo del pa s, alcanz su expresi n m xima a partir de la d cada de los setenta, principalmente en la coyuntura del auge petrolero (1977-1981).
