Book excerpt: This book presents and uses a major, new database of the most serious forms of internal resistance to the Nazi state to study empirically the whole phenomenon of resistance to an authoritarian regime. By studying serious political resistance from a quantitative historical perspective, the book opens up a new avenue of research for economic history. The database underpinning the book was painstakingly compiled from official state records of treason and/or high treason tried before the German People’s Court (Volksgerichtshof) between 1933 and 1945. It brings together material on resistance groups stored in the archives of the Federal Republic of Germany and Austria with previously inaccessible files from the former German Democratic Republic, Czechoslovakia and Soviet Union. Through searching these records, the authors have been able to reconstruct in hitherto unattainable detail the economic, social, political, ethnic and familial profiles, backgroun ds, and influences of all 4,378 civilians of the Third Reich active in Germany, Austria and the outside territories for whom there are complete records. The findings of their research afford fresh, new interdisciplinary insights and perspectives, not only on the configuration, timing, impact and profile of resistance to the Nazi state, but also on a range of real-world behaviours common within authoritarian states, such as defection, reward and punishment, and commitment to group identities. The book’s statistical analysis reveals precisely the who, how, where and when of serious resistance. In so doing, it advances significantly our understanding of the overall pattern and nature of serious resistance within Nazi Germany.

Book excerpt: A multidisciplinary reference of engineering measurement tools, techniques, and applications Volume 1 "When you can measure what you are speaking about, and express it in numbers, you know something about it; but when you cannot measure it, when you cannot express it in numbers, your knowledge is of a meager and unsatisfactory kind; it may be the beginning of knowledge, but you have scarcely in your thoughts advanced to the stage of science." Lord Kelvin Measurement falls at the heart of any engineering discipline and job function. Whether engineers are attempting to state requirements quantitatively and demonstrate compliance; to track progress and predict results; or to analyze costs and benefits, they must use the right tools and techniques to produce meaningful, useful data. The Handbook of Measurement in Science and Engineering is the most comprehensive, up-to-date reference set on engineering measurements beyond anything on the market today. Encyclopedic in scope, Volume 1 spans several disciplines Civil and Environmental Engineering, Mechanical and Biomedical Engineering, and Industrial Engineering and covers: New Measurement Techniques in Structural Health Monitoring Traffic Congestion Management Measurements in Environmental Engineering Dimensions, Surfaces, and Their Measurement Luminescent Method for Pressure Measurement Vibration Measurement Temperature Measurement Force Measurement Heat Transfer Measurements for Non-Boiling Two-Phase Flow Solar Energy Measurements Human Movement Measurements Physiological Flow Measurements GIS and Computer Mapping Seismic Testing of Highway Bridges Hydrology Measurements Mobile Source Emissions Testing Mass Properties Measurement Resistive Strain Measurement Devices Acoustics Measurements Pressure and Velocity Measurements Heat Flux Measurement Wind Energy Measurements Flow Measurement Statistical Quality Control Industrial Energy Efficiency Industrial Waste Auditing Vital for engineers, scientists, and technical managers in industry and government, Handbook of Measurement in Science and Engineering will also prove ideal for members of major engineering associations and academics and researchers at universities and laboratories.

Download or read book Methods of Measuring Electrical Resistance written by Edwin F. Northrup and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-26 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Methods of Measuring Electrical Resistance This treatise contains a compilation of many methods of measuring electrical resistance, most of which are fully described. Some of the methods are new and are described here for the first time. Several are illustrated with records of sample measurements. While it is not claimed that the work is exhaustive, the author has selected for presentation all methods which in his judgment are useful, for commercial tests and measurements, for purposes of instruction in educational institutions and for application in technical and research laboratories. Rules for the estimation of errors are briefly considered in the first chapter. One chapter is devoted to methods of measuring temperature by means of resistance measuring apparatus, and in another chapter methods are considered for locating faults upon telephone and other land lines. While few descriptions of specific types of instruments are given, two chapters are devoted to a consideration of the broad principles which should apply when designing, selecting and using apparatus intended for the measurement of electrical resistance. An appendix contains data and information useful in connection with the subjects treated. Methods employed for the absolute determination of the ohm are not considered because few persons have occasion to make this determination. In the examples recorded to illustrate specific methods, it may at times appear to some that the precision obtained is unsatisfactory. The measurements recorded, however, are real and not hypothetical cases, and they were made under such working conditions as ordinarily obtain. They are thought, therefore, to be more instructive than specially selected cases where the measurements have been made with unusual skill and care resulting in exceptionally high precision.

Book Synopsis Quantifying Flow Resistance in Natural Environments by : Yunxiang Chen
Download or read book Quantifying Flow Resistance in Natural Environments written by Yunxiang Chen and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quantifying flow resistance is important for understanding and predicting energy and momentum transfer processes in natural environments such as ice-melting in the polar ice sheet and sediment transport in mountain streams. Flow resistance represents the retarding forces experienced by flow and the associated energy loss (dissipated through heat) in these systems. Flow resistance is mainly due to skin friction and form drag. Among many factors, the geometry of flow conduit and channel plays the dominant role. Though important for predicting the ice-sheet dynamics and mountain stream bed evolution, a general methodology for accurate and rapid quantification of flow resistance in natural environments has not been established due to either the inaccessibility of harsh polar environments or the lack of accurate measurements of realistic mountain streams. Many of existing flow resistance predictors are empirical and indirect. To fill this knowledge gap, this thesis work tried to directly quantify the flow resistance in these two geophysical settings using a workflow combing structure-from-motion (SfM) photogrammetry and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) models. Based on the high-resolution topographic data of a realistic subglacial conduit and three mountain streambeds, a series of CFD simulations were performed. The simulations based on a realistic subglacial conduit surface quantified the bulk flow resistance, in the form of Darcy-Weisbach friction factor, as around 2.41. Additional CFD simulations based on three simplified conduits revealed that cross-sectional shape and size variations of, and sinuosity in, this conduit dominate (~95%) the bulk flow resistance, whereas the contribution from surface roughness due to bottom rocks and icy roof is relatively unimportant (~5%). This result suggests that most glaciological models, which use surface roughness to quantify resistance and ignore the effects of cross-sectional variation and sinuosity, may significantly underestimate the flow resistance in realistic subglacial conduits. To evaluate the implications of the CFD simulated flow resistance, an open-source one-dimensional subglacial conduit model, conduitFoam, was developed and used to model the subglacial conduit dynamics and its dependence on different forcing conditions, such as entrance water head, ice-melting/creep-closure rate, discharge, water velocity, conduit size, and effective pressure. With the CFD simulated flow resistance, the results show that realistic subglacial conduits may have a smaller water velocity and effective pressure but larger conduit size compared to those currently predicted in glaciology models due to the choosing of a much smaller friction factor in the range 0.01-0.5. Real conduits also need longer time to reach a quasi-steady state because they have much larger flow resistance than the ones used in these models. This finding suggests that a re-evaluation of the effect of subglacial flow resistance may be necessary for ice-sheet or climate models.Applying the same workflow of combining SfM and CFD to mountain streams, we quantified the microtopography of mountain streambeds and directly calculated the flow resistance. The roughness of the streambeds can mainly be represented by the standard deviation of the surface microtopography. A new resistance relationship between the standard deviation and the flow resistance was then established. This new resistance formula links the flow resistance directly to the surface features which are easily quantifiable with data acquired from SfM photogrammetry. With the workflow and the new formula, it is possible to rapidly quantify flow resistance in natural mountain streams which may be hard to access. This thesis work further tested the applicability of traditional resistance relationship/formulas. CFD simulations with rough pipes reconstructed from different detrending/smoothing methods show that most traditional resistance relationships for rough pipes are still valid when relative surface roughness is less than 20%. Under this scenario, the hydraulic roughness required by traditional rough pipe theories can be estimated by 1.1-1.4 times of the surface roughness. For surfaces with relative surface roughness larger than 20%, direct simulations are necessary to determine the flow resistance.
