Book excerpt: El objetivo fundamental que se pretende alcanzar con esta publicación de exámenes resueltos, es proporcionar material de trabajo a aquellos estudiantes que tengan inquietud por ampliar sus conocimientos y adquirir una mayor preparación para afrontar con éxito sus estudios. La disposición de los exámenes y prácticas resueltos se ha estructurado colocando inicialmente los enunciados de cada uno de ellos y en páginas siguientes la resolución de todos los detalles constructivos y cuestiones solicitadas. Posiblemente algún detalle constructivo pueda parecer similar al de otros exámenes. Pese a ello se mantiene el mismo examen porque cada detalle no se puede estudiar y resolver como un elemento aislado, sino que hay que contemplarlo vinculado al resto de la estructura, analizando cargas y disposición de los restantes elementos estructurales que influyen sobre el mismo. Son enfoques diferentes y contienen matices distintos sobre la misma cuestión. Todo ello siempre desde el punto de vista constructivo, independientemente de los cálculos y dimensiones. Esta publicación forma parte de un amplio trabajo concebido especialmente para los estudiantes de Arquitectura Técnica, Ingenierías y otros estudios vinculados a la Construcción de Edificios. Está estructurado en 4 volúmenes: Tomo 1.- Estructuras de hormigón armado: cimentación, muros, pilares y jácenas, uniones, según normativa vigente. Tomo 2.- Forjados unidireccionales de viguetas de hormigón, forjados reticulares y de chapa nervada colaborante. Tomo 3.- Estructuras metálicas en edificios y naves. Uniones. Tomo 4.- Escaleras. En la resolución de los detalles se han contemplado las Instrucciones EHE, EFHE, NCSE-02 y CTE.

This book was released on 2010-02-25 with total page 478 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El objetivo que se pretende alcanzar con esta publicación es la exposición, de forma sencilla y detallada, de un conjunto de criterios sobre el funcionamiento de las estructuras de acero, enfocando estrictamente, hacia su construcción, sin entrar en el estudio de los cálculos. El libro se ha adaptado, en los apartados que ha sido posible, a la Instrucciones EA-95, a la Instrucción EAE, al Eurocódigo 3, a la Instrucción EHE, y a la Norma Sismorresistente NCSE-02, y se ha concebido pensando los estudiantes de Arquitectura Técnica, sin olvidarla posible utilidad para otros estudios relacionados con la Construcción de Edificios. El acero es el material estructural por excelencia para grandes alturas, puesto que resuelve con éxito los planteamientos estructurales de: soportar el peso con pilares de dimensiones reducidas, resistir el empuje ante el vuelco y evitar movimientos debidos a la acción del viento, auxiliado en ocasiones por algún núcleo de hormigón armado. En el contenido del libro se incluyen gran número de perspectivas y detalles constructivos que, unidos al texto escrito, ayudan a comprender el funcionamiento de la estructura y con ello tener la oportunidad de elegir las opciones idóneas para resolver cada encuentro, de acuerdo a las exigencias estructurales. Se analiza la estructura completa del edificio, tanto si es un edificio industrial como si es para uso administrativo o de viviendas. Se estudia el encuentro del edificio con la cimentación, las placas de anclaje, pilares, jácenas, forjados, vigas de celosía, cubiertas con estructura metálica, analizando y detallando las uniones y arrostramientos, completando su contenido con un amplio apartado sobre estructuras mixtas.

This book was released on 2012-01-14 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mechanical design includes an optimization process in which designers always consider objectives such as strength, deflection, weight, wear, corrosion, etc. depending on the requirements. However, design optimization for a complete mechanical assembly leads to a complicated objective function with a large number of design variables. It is a good practice to apply optimization techniques for individual components or intermediate assemblies than a complete assembly. Analytical or numerical methods for calculating the extreme values of a function may perform well in many practical cases, but may fail in more complex design situations. In real design problems, the number of design parameters can be very large and their influence on the value to be optimized (the goal function) can be very complicated, having nonlinear character. In these complex cases, advanced optimization algorithms offer solutions to the problems, because they find a solution near to the global optimum within reasonable time and computational costs. Mechanical Design Optimization Using Advanced Optimization Techniques presents a comprehensive review on latest research and development trends for design optimization of mechanical elements and devices. Using examples of various mechanical elements and devices, the possibilities for design optimization with advanced optimization techniques are demonstrated. Basic and advanced concepts of traditional and advanced optimization techniques are presented, along with real case studies, results of applications of the proposed techniques, and the best optimization strategies to achieve best performance are highlighted. Furthermore, a novel advanced optimization method named teaching-learning-based optimization (TLBO) is presented in this book and this method shows better performance with less computational effort for the large scale problems. Mechanical Design Optimization Using Advanced Optimization Techniques is intended for designers, practitioners, managers, institutes involved in design related projects, applied research workers, academics, and graduate students in mechanical and industrial engineering and will be useful to the industrial product designers for realizing a product as it presents new models and optimization techniques to make tasks easier, logical, efficient and effective. .

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Long considered a classic in Bolivia, Juan de la Rosa tells the story of a young boy's coming of age during the violent and tumultuous years of Bolivia's struggle for independence. Indeed, in this remarkable novel, Juan's search for his personal identity functions as an allegory of Bolivia's search for its identity as a nation. Set in the early 1800s, the novel is narrated by one of the last surviving Bolivian rebels, octogenarian Juan de la Rosa. Juan recreates his childhood in the rebellious town of Cochabamba, and with it a large cast of full bodied, Dickensian characters both heroic and malevolent. The larger cultural dislocations brought about by Bolivia's political upheaval are echoed in those experienced by Juan, whose mother's untimely death sets off a chain of unpredictable events that propel him into the fiery crucible of the South American Independence Movement. Outraged by Juan's outspokenness against Spanish rule and his awakening political consciousness, his loyalist guardians banish him to the countryside, where he witnesses firsthand the Spaniards' violent repression and rebels' valiant resistance that crystallize both his personal destiny and that of his country. In Sergio Gabriel Waisman's fluid translation, English readers have access to Juan de la Rosa for the very first time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "John Paul Lederach's work in the field of conciliation and mediation is internationally recognized. He has provided consultation, training and direct mediation in a range of situations from the Miskito/Sandinista conflict in Nicaragua to Somalia, Northern Ireland, Tajikistan, and the Philippines. His influential 1997 book Building Peace has become a classic in the discipline. In this book, Lederach poses the question, "How do we transcend the cycles of violence that bewitch our human community while still living in them?" Peacebuilding, in his view, is both a learned skill and an art. Finding this art, he says, requires a worldview shift. Conflict professionals must envision their work as a creative act-an exercise of what Lederach terms the "moral imagination." This imagination must, however, emerge from and speak to the hard realities of human affairs. The peacebuilder must have one foot in what is and one foot beyond what exists. The book is organized around four guiding stories that point to the moral imagination but are incomplete. Lederach seeks to understand what happened in these individual cases and how they are relevant to large-scale change. His purpose is not to propose a grand new theory. Instead he wishes to stay close to the "messiness" of real processes and change, and to recognize the serendipitous nature of the discoveries and insights that emerge along the way. overwhelmed the equally important creative process. Like most professional peacemakers, Lederach sees his work as a religious vocation. Lederach meditates on his own calling and on the spirituality that moves ordinary people to reject violence and seek reconciliation. Drawing on his twenty-five years of experience in the field he explores the evolution of his understanding of peacebuilding and points the way toward the future of the art." http://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0616/2004011794-d.html.

Book excerpt: Today Bayt al-'Aqqad is one of 23 buildings in old Damascus which come under the UNESCO World Heritage programme, but when the Danish Institute in Damascus took over the house in 1997 it had been derelict for 50 years and was in a very sorry state indeed. In the following years Danish architects and restorers worked together with Syrian colleagues on an admirable restoration of the house. Step by step new aspects turned up, showing that the building was not only a beautiful house with a long history - the house is founded on the Roman theatre of Herod - but also that it contained fine examples of the most important periods in the architectural history of Damascus. In this lavishly illustrated book the story of the house and its resurrection is told by architects, restorers, archaeologists and historians and it is a must for anybody who has experienced the joy and fascination of Islamic art and architecture.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ángel Rama was one of twentieth-century Latin America's most distinguished men of letters. Writing across Cultures is his comprehensive analysis of the varied sources of Latin American literature. Originally published in 1982, the book links Rama's work on Spanish American modernism with his arguments about the innovative nature of regionalist literature, and it foregrounds his thinking about the close relationship between literary movements, such as modernism or regionalism, and global trends in social and economic development. In Writing across Cultures, Rama extends the Cuban anthropologist Fernando Ortiz's theory of transculturation far beyond Cuba, bringing it to bear on regional cultures across Latin America, where new cultural arrangements have been forming among indigenous, African, and European societies for the better part of five centuries. Rama applies this concept to the work of the Peruvian novelist, poet, and anthropologist José María Arguedas, whose writing drew on both Spanish and Quechua, Peru's two major languages and, by extension, cultures. Rama considered Arguedas's novel Los ríos profundos (Deep Rivers) to be the most accomplished example of narrative transculturation in Latin America. Writing across Cultures is the second of Rama's books to be translated into English.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why does a particular landscape move us? What is it that attaches us to a particular place? Tall’s From Where We Stand is an eloquent exploration of the connections we have with places—and the loss to us if there are no such connections. A typically rootless child of several American suburbs, Tall set out to make a true home for herself in the landscape that circumstance had brought her—the Finger Lakes region of upstate New York. In a mosaic of personal anecdotes, historical sketches, and lyrical meditations, she interweaves her own story with the story of this place and its people—from the Seneca Nation of the Iroquois, to European settlers, to the many utopians who sensed and were inspired by a spiritual resonance here. This edition includes an introduction by William Kittredge and a foreword by Stephen Kuusisto, both highlighting the book’s significance and Tall’s exquisite skill in tracing the relationship between homelands and storytelling.
