Super-High-Strength High Performance Concrete

Super-High-Strength High Performance Concrete

When produced correctly concrete can be extremely strong with high load-bearing capacity and superior durability. Another noteworthy property is the relatively low amount of energy and resources consumed during production. Super-High-Strength High Performance Concrete brings together the results of a major research project by the National Natural Science Foundation of China and the Doctoral Foundation of the Ministry of Education of China. This ten-year project explored the properties performance and potential of super-high-strength high performance (SHSHP) concrete. With a view towards improved production that optimizes the strength and durability of concrete the book presents a host of topics on the cutting edge of concrete research. These include: A new method for the specific strength analysis of the pozzolanic effect of active mineral admixtures Analysis of the strength composition of SHSHP concrete Optimization of raw materials and mix proportion parameters for strength and flowability Analysis of the mechanical properties deformation and durability of SHSHP concrete Methods for decreasing autogeneous shrinkage Testing methods for SHSHP concrete The book concludes with a consideration of the practical and economic benefits of these optimized concretes. A systematic study of the different aspects of this essential commodity as well as the future direction of concrete science and technology this book is a valuable resource for material scientists and engineers engaged in developing better structures.

Metal and Ceramic Biomaterials Volume II: Strength and Surface

Metal and Ceramic Biomaterials Volume II: Strength and Surface

The understanding of the in vivo performance of synthetic materials is largely dependent upon a profound knowledge of the properties of the materials in question. Analogous to materials science in its broadest sense the basis for biomaterials science is formed by microstructural there. It is therefore that in this series on structure property relationships in biomaterials a substantial part is devoted to the analysis of the basic properties of the various synthetic biomaterials. In addition the effect of microstructural aspects on properties is considered at great length. | Metal and Ceramic Biomaterials Volume II: Strength and Surface

Scientific and Medical Knowledge Production 1796-1918 Volume II: Humanity

Scientific and Medical Knowledge Production 1796-1918 Volume II: Humanity

This volume foregrounds humanity (in the sense of compassion or sympathy) which often supplied the motivation for medical experiment and scientific innovation. Though the results of experiments could not be known in advance often the stated goal was the reduction of suffering the cure of disease or the easement of life. Increasingly critics accused practitioners of hiding hubris behind their purported humanity and questioned whether an increasingly professional scientific community could retain its grip on the meaning of compassion. | Scientific and Medical Knowledge Production 1796-1918 Volume II: Humanity

Great Negotiators How the Most Successful Business Negotiators Think and Behave

Great Negotiators How the Most Successful Business Negotiators Think and Behave

What is it about the great negotiators? How is it they seem to manage to recover from disadvantageous positions? How do they adapt their approach to turn an unpromising start into a value creating deal? And why is it that they never seem to lose their appetite for negotiation? Some of this may be down to genes. There may genuinely be born negotiators but as far as the rest of us go it's down to preparation and knowledge; knowledge of how people think and how they behave. Tom Beasor's Great Negotiators is a collection of techniques that illustrate how the most successful negotiators think and behave. Good negotiators are always well prepared and there is a host of tips to help you prepare your strategy and your thinking before an important negotiation. There are also ideas to help you understand the philosophy behind your negotiating approach; to help you handle international negotiations; and to ensure every negotiation is a potential learning experience. Great Negotiators is a treasure trove of ideas from a highly successful international negotiator and trainer. | Great Negotiators How the Most Successful Business Negotiators Think and Behave

Scientific and Medical Knowledge Production 1796-1918 Volume III: Authority

Increasingly critics accused practitioners of hiding hubris behind their purported humanity and questioned whether an increasingly professional scientific community could retain its grip on the meaning of compassion. This volume presents a set of responses to this criticism and others showing the extent to which the lived-experience of scientific practice became a justification in and of itself for the expression of social political and cultural authority. Bare knowledge as it was presented came with an enormous social valuation. These sources show how that authority changed and grew over time. | Scientific and Medical Knowledge Production 1796-1918 Volume III: Authority

Two sections — ‘Narrative Method’ and ‘Subject-Matter’ — are used as the basis from which the author examines key themes in Trollope’s work with instructive extracts from the novels included to illustrate these points and upon which commentary is provided. This book will be of interest to students of literature. | Anthony Trollope

Personality in the Social Process

Personality in the Social Process

First published in 1985. This book presents a new way to ask an old question. Many fields have considered the nature of the influence that members of a group exert on the course of social events. Social science provides another way to examine this issue. Moreover social science has a particular strength: It helps us to phrase questions more precisely than before it encourages us to follow a line of rea­soning systematically and it requires us to evaluate our ideas in light of a par­ticular kind of evidence. The authors want to use these strengths to explore systematically the ways that factors in the person and in the environment to­gether may shape the emergence of social behavior. | Personality in the Social Process
