Book Synopsis Lectures on Buildings by : Mark Ronan
Download or read book Lectures on Buildings written by Mark Ronan and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2009-10-15 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In mathematics, “buildings” are geometric structures that represent groups of Lie type over an arbitrary field. This concept is critical to physicists and mathematicians working in discrete mathematics, simple groups, and algebraic group theory, to name just a few areas. Almost twenty years after its original publication, Mark Ronan’s Lectures on Buildings remains one of the best introductory texts on the subject. A thorough, concise introduction to mathematical buildings, it contains problem sets and an excellent bibliography that will prove invaluable to students new to the field. Lectures on Buildings will find a grateful audience among those doing research or teaching courses on Lie-type groups, on finite groups, or on discrete groups. “Ronan’s account of the classification of affine buildings [is] both interesting and stimulating, and his book is highly recommended to those who already have some knowledge and enthusiasm for the theory of buildings.”—Bulletin of the London Mathematical Society

Download or read book Ten Lectures on Cognitive Construction of Meaning written by Gilles Fauconnier and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2018-07-17 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As we think and talk, rich arrays of mental spaces and connections between them are constructed unconsciously. Conceptual integration of mental spaces leads to new meaning, global insight, and compressions useful for memory and creativity. A powerful aspect of conceptual integration networks is the dynamic emergence of novel structure in all areas of human life (science, religion, art, ...). The emergence of complex metaphors creates our conceptualization of time. The same operations play a role in material culture generally. Technology evolves to produce cultural human artefacts such as watches, gauges, compasses, airplane cockpit displays, with structure specifically designed to match conceptual inputs and integrate with them into stable blended frames of perception and action that can be memorized, learned by new generations, and thus culturally transmitted.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lectures on Building Construction Yet the design was such that the forces had always to be counterbalanced in a very indirect and costly way. Only the religious enthusiasm of the Middle Ages and a fine artistic sense, combined with the modern engineer's skill, without his sense of economy, could have produced such a type of building. The modern architect seems often to have inherited the artistic sense of his medieval predecessor-but not always his skill as a structural designer. With buildings of the simpler and cheaper type, the engineer has not often much to do; yet. they present many interesting points in construction, though not requiring any great amount of mathematics in their design. On the subject of frame buildings, little can be added to Part II of Kidder's Building Construction and Superintendence. Some points brought out by him, however, may well be emphasized. In the matter of the frame, the method shown in Figure 19, page 50, could hardly be improved; considering cost and efficiency together, it is probably the best that can be done. The importance of having at all points the same amount of timber capable of shrinking in a vertical direction can not be overestimated. The lengthwise shrinkage of timber, while by no means inappreciable, is not enough to cause cracks in plaster or to spoil the fit of doors and windows. But its crosswise shrinkage is a very different matter. If one end of a partition is supported on 6 inches more of shrink-able timber than the other, cracks will surely appear in time, and the fit of doors will be noticeably impaired. Where inequalities in the amount of shrinkable timber are inevitable, it would be well, in the case of those members whose shrinkage will cause trouble, to buy kiln-dried lumber, if obtainable in suitable sizes, and give it a priming coat of paint before exposing it to the weather in the unfinished building. Even this will not entirely cure the trouble, but it will greatly lessen it. Thoroughly aired seasoned lumber would be better, but it can not always be obtained. Kiln drying is of doubtful utility in large pieces; if thoroughly done, it is likely to cause serious checking; if not thoroughly done, the shrinkage is not taken out, and ordinary lumber might as well be used. The expense of kiln drying large pieces would also be prohibitive in most cases. A certain amount of shrinkage and a few cracks in a frame building are probably inevitable. The method shown by Kidder for the support of an interior partition, in Figure 62, page 80, is one of the few mistakes in his Part II. Partitions weigh a good deal themselves, and often support floors above. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2018-01-19 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lectures on Building Construction The art of building has never been fully discussed from the engineer's standpoint, and it is not proposed herein to attempt such discussion, but there are a number of points resulting from practical experience which will be touched upon with a view to supplementing the course in Building Construction at the Engineer School. Every military engineer should be master of construction in all its forms. Probably the first really difficult structures erected by man had their origin in military requirements; so, military engineering may fairly claim to be the father of all construction.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mechanics of Building Construction During the summer of 1906 the author was requested by the Board of Education to give a course of lectures at South Kensington upon "The Mechanics of Building Construction" to a number of Science teachers selected by the Department from all parts of the Kingdom, with the object of perfecting their knowledge of the subject and at the same time illustrating the manner in which it should be taught. The course was so well appreciated by the teachers that a repetition was asked for in 1907, and was duly given to another selected group. Those lectures form the basis of the present work; but in preparing his notes for the press the author has made some alteration in the division of the sections and many additions to the text and drawings, and has revised the remainder where expedient. The details have been expanded, and explained more fully than they were in the first instance, so that what was originally prepared for teachers only is now available also for students, and forms a complete text-book of all the more important branches of the subject. The matter is divided up into thirty chapters so that, if used as lectures, each would occupy not more than one and a half hours in delivery, including the time taken up in sketching the diagrams on the blackboard. The want of a good general work upon the principles of Structural Engineering, which covers the whole ground that a student needs to traverse before he begins to specialise, has often been felt by young architects and engineers, although there are many books dealing with some of the elementary branches which leave little to be desired. This work is intended to supply the deficiency. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
