Book Synopsis Batting In The Baltic by : Angus Bell
Download or read book Batting In The Baltic written by Angus Bell and published by Penguin Random House South Africa. This book was released on 2012-10-01 with total page 426 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scotsman Angus Bell is minding his own business in Montreal when a psychic tells him he'll be leaving North America to embark on a travelling media project. When the words 'cricket' and 'Ukraine' pop into his head, he sets off to fulfil his destiny. A voyage of surprising discovery is in store for him: not only do they play cricket right across central and eastern Europe, bu they're as passionate about the game as he is. From tournaments on ice in Estonia to university leages in the crumbling Crimea, from a Croatian military island to communist Belarus, Slavs are playing the Englishman's game. Angus uncovers a shadowy side of eastern European cricket too; with fingerless 'Tamil Tigers' in Prague, a bomb plotter in the Austrian Alps, Mafiosos and an MI6 secret agent making the team sheets. He becomes the first man to hit a ball between continents and ends up captain of an international cricket team. Between games he is pursued by the KGB, becomes embroiled in a drug bust on the Midnight Express and seeks emergency treatment from a Romanian dentist. Batting in the Baltic is a hilarious and unique traveller's tale. It redefines the spirit of cricket and will make the games' most sworn enemy a fan.
Book Synopsis Freezing of Lakes and the Evolution of Their Ice Cover by : Matti Leppäranta
Download or read book Freezing of Lakes and the Evolution of Their Ice Cover written by Matti Leppäranta and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-07-05 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book updates the first edition for the status of knowledge in the physics of lake ice and the interactions between the ice cover and the liquid water underneath. Since the first edition was written in 2013, there has been a lot of progress in the field, in particular concerning environmental questions and the impact of climate change. Life conditions in ice-covered lakes and practical matters are now brought more into the picture so that the revision also properly serves as a handbook for applications. The author has worked widely with boreal lakes, polar lakes and Central Asian lakes that provides a wide geographical spectrum. Chapter 1 gives a brief overview and presents the research fields. The second chapter contains the classification of ice-covered lakes and observation techniques, especially remote sensing. In Chapter 3, the structure and properties of lake ice are presented including optics and geochemistry. Ice growth and melting are treated in Chapter 4, while the following chapter focuses on ice mechanics with applications to traffic on ice and ice loads. Chapter 6 goes into the exotic environment of pro-glacial lakes. Chapter 7 contains the stratification and circulation of the water body beneath lake ice, Chapter 8 presents the winter ecology of freezing lakes and discusses the lake ice interface toward the society, and Chapter 9 summarizes the climate change impact on lake ice seasons. The book ends into a brief closing chapter and list of references. Research problems for student learning are listed throughout the book. Annexes are included to provide numerical data of constants and standard formulae to help practical calculations and student tasks. Lake ice closely interacts with human living conditions, but people have learnt to live with that and to utilize the ice. In the present time this is true for on-ice traffic and recreation activities. Ice fishing has become a widely enjoyed hobby, and winter sports such as skiing, skating, and ice sailing are popular activities on frozen lakes. The lake ice response to eventual climate warming would appear as a shortening of the ice season due to the increasing air temperature and also as changing of the quality of the ice seasons via changes in ice thickness and structure. The book gives the whole story of lake ice into a single volume. The second, revised edition updates the content based on recent progress in winter limnology and ice physics research and applications. The author has contributed to lake ice research since the 1980s. In particular, his topics have been lake ice structure and thermodynamics, light transfer in ice and snow, ice mechanics in large lakes, and lake ice climatology. Mathematical modeling of ice growth, drift, and decay are covered in this research.

Book Synopsis Techniques for Protecting Overhead Lines in Winter Conditions by : Masoud Farzaneh
Download or read book Techniques for Protecting Overhead Lines in Winter Conditions written by Masoud Farzaneh and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-02-10 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a comprehensive review of the various options for improving the performance of overhead power lines in winter conditions, taking into account both mechanical and electrical aspects. Experience within the CIGRE community reveals many strategies to protect overhead power lines from damage caused by heavy build-up of ice and snow or electrical issues such as insulator icing flashovers. The initial approach is to consider the predicted ice loads from the available databases. This is supplemented with some fundamental aspects of icing physics that affect accretion rate as well as factors in ice shedding on traditional (metal, ceramic) and novel treated surfaces. These ice physics concepts structure the ways to categorize and evaluate methods to reduce or prevent icing on conductors and ground wires or to prevent flashover of insulators. Many utilities in cold climate regions have developed and used methods and strategies to reduce ice loads using anti-icing (AI) and / or de-icing (DI) methods. In general, AI methods are used before or early during ice build-up, while DI methods are activated during and sometimes after ice build-up. The book describes and discusses some historical, operational, or potential AI / DI systems in the ice physics context. This supports a comprehensive review of AI coatings including concepts, relevant material properties, application methods, and finally test methods for characterizing the long-term performance.

Book excerpt: The final chapter in the series that began with The Quest for the Diamond Sword—will Steve and his friends find Mine Mountain and get the legendary treasure? When Steve’s friends Max, Lucy, and Henry get their hands on a map with the location of the legendary Mine Mountain, Steve questions if the map is a fake. Going to this fabled mountain, rumored to contain an endless supply of diamonds, is every treasure hunter’s dream. Many believe the mountain doesn’t exist, and although Steve is doubtful about the map’s authenticity, the gang convinces Steve and Kyra to embark on a journey to find this magical mountain. On their trip, Steve and his friends stumble upon a town filled with friendly folk. While there, they meet other treasure hunters who are also searching for Mine Mountain. As the group joins forces with their new treasure hunter friends, creepers attack them. The closer they get to the famed mine, the more creepers appear. The group doesn’t know if this is the work of a griefer or if the creepers are trying to hide something. Will they stop the creeper attack? Will they get the diamonds? And should Steve and his friends trust these new treasure hunters? It’s a test of trust in this journey for treasure.
