Hardcover. Etat : Fine. 1st Edition. Fine. 406pp. RRP at time of listing £226.00. Illustrated within text. Published by the Wit Press, Southampton, 2009. First edition, first printing. 8vo; 9 1/4". WIT Transactions on Modelling and Simulation, Volume 49. This book contains papers from the thirty-first conference on the Boundary Element Method and other meshless techniques. The major motivation behind the Boundary Element Method (BEM) was to reduce the dependency of analysis on the definition of meshes. This has allowed the method to expand naturally into new techniques such as Dual Reciprocity. Mesh Reduction Methods (MRM) and BEM continue to be very active areas of research with many of the resulting techniques being successfully applied to solve increasingly complex problems. The topics of the thirty-first conference included: Advanced Meshless and Mesh Reduction Methods; Heat and Mass Transfer; Electrical Engineering and Electromagnetics; Fluid Flow; Advanced Formulations; Computational Techniques; Advanced Structural Applications; Dynamics and Vibrations; Damage Mechanics and Fracture; Material Characterisation; Financial Engineering Applications; Stochastic Modelling; Emerging Applications.

Hardcover. Etat : new. Hardcover. The exergy method makes it possible to detect and quantify the possibilities of improving thermal and chemical processes and systems. The introduction of the concept "thermo-ecological cost" (cumulative consumption of non-renewable natural exergy resources) generated large application possibilities of exergy in ecology. This book contains a short presentation on the basic principles of exergy analysis and discusses new achievements in the field over the last 15 years. One of the most important issues considered by the distinguished author is the economy of non-renewable natural exergy. Previously discussed only in scientific journals, other important new problems highlighted include: calculation of the chemical exergy of all the stable chemical elements, global natural and anthropogenic exergy losses, practical guidelines for improvement of the thermodynamic imperfection of thermal processes and systems, development of the determination methods of partial exergy losses in thermal systems, evaluation of the natural mineral capital of the Earth, and the application of exergy for the determination of a pro-ecological tax.A basic knowledge of thermodynamics is assumed, and the book is therefore most appropriate for graduate students and engineers working in the field of energy and ecological management. This book contains a short presentation on the basic principles of energy analysis and discusses new achievements in the field over the last 15 years. One of the most important issues considered by the distinguished author is the economy of non-renewable natural energy.

Hardcover. Etat : new. Hardcover. Studies, repairs and maintenance of heritage architecture are becoming increasingly important in modern society.The rapid growth recently experienced in many regions of the world has added a particular urgency to the need to preserve our built cultural heritage. This requires the collaboration of different parties including not only architects, engineers and scientists but also artists, socio-economic professionals and all other stakeholders to ensure the effective integration of the rehabilitated buildings within the community.Comprising specially selected papers, this book addresses a series of topics related to the historical aspects and reuse of heritage architecture, as well as technical issues on the structural integrity of different types of buildings. Restoration processes require the appropriate characterisation of materials, the modes of construction and the structural behaviour of the building. Modern computer simulation can provide accurate results demonstrating the stress state of the building and possible failure mechanisms affecting its stability. Equally important are studies related to their dynamic and earthquake behaviour, aiming to provide an assessment of the seismic vulnerability of heritage buildings.Of particular interest is the need for Heritage Building rehabilitation to conform to energy consumption reduction goals framed within climate change initiatives. It is necessary to encourage actions to improve energy efficiency, harmonised with both appropriate amounts of investment and transnational commitments to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
