Conservation and Restoration of Built Heritage A History of Conservation Culture and its More Recent Developments

Conservation and Restoration of Built Heritage A History of Conservation Culture and its More Recent Developments

The word conservation when used in the context of the preservation of built heritage implies an intrinsically complex concept that evolved over time since it has been influenced by the perception of history throughout time. This volume emphasises why an understanding of the cultural evolution of the conservation approach must be considered a prerequisite for architects and engineers if they are to cooperate in full harmony with historic-artistic culture for the preservation of global built heritage. In particular the volume highlights how during the second half of the last century the preservation process also involved engineering – the science of making practical applications of knowledge – which for a long time made an uncritical use of techniques and materials and devised interventions on historical heritage that were heavily invasive. The volume also devotes special attention to the problems related to seismic risk to which Italy Greece and Portugal are particularly prone. Problems that emerge during the crisis and reconstruction phases are dealt with in detail as is scheduled maintenance as this latter approach always constitutes an improvement in the performance of the monument and is the most appropriate tool for the conservation of the built heritage. Finally the volume collects examples of building restoration with case studies of many outstanding monuments. The work will appeal to professionals and academics in the broader fields of civil engineering (both geotechnical and structural engineering) architecture art history the history of architecture restoration and cultural heritage management. This book will: Provide a critical reading of the history of conservation; Discuss materials and techniques of ancient architecture; Cover seismic vulnerability and preservation of the historic integrity of the monument; Advocate an approach based on programmed maintenance; Feature numerous case histories including St Mark’s Basilica in Venice and the complex restoration of the cathedral of Notre-Dame in Paris. | Conservation and Restoration of Built Heritage A History of Conservation Culture and its More Recent Developments

Labyrinth and Piano Key Weirs III Proceedings of the 3rd International Workshop on Labyrinth and Piano Key Weirs (PKW 2017) February 22-24

Since the first implementation by Electricité de France on the Goulours dam (France) in 2006 the Piano Key Weir has become a more and more applied solution to increase the discharge capacity of existing spillways. In parallel several new large dam projects have been built with such a flood control structure usually in combination with gates. Today more than 25 Piano Key Weirs are in operation or under construction all over the world. More than 15 years of research and development have enabled detailed investigations of the hydraulic and structural behaviour of the Piano Key Weir complex structure and have provided more and more accurate design equations. Following the proceedings of the first two workshops held in Liege (Belgium – 2011) and Paris (France – 2013) Labyrinth and Piano Key Weirs III collects the contributions presented by people with varied background from researchers to practitioners at the 3rd International Workshop on Labyrinth and Piano Key Weirs - PKW 2017 (22-24 February 2017 Qui Nhon Vietnam). The papers reviewed and accepted by an International Scientific Committee summarize the current state-of-the-art on Piano Key Weirs from a theoretical to a practical point of view and present most of the main projects in operation or under construction. Labyrinth and Piano Key Weirs III is thus a reference for students practitioners and researchers interested in Dams Engineering. | Labyrinth and Piano Key Weirs III Proceedings of the 3rd International Workshop on Labyrinth and Piano Key Weirs (PKW 2017) February 22-24

Mathematical Statistics With Applications

Mathematical Statistics With Applications

Mathematical statistics typically represents one of the most difficult challenges in statistics particularly for those with more applied rather than mathematical interests and backgrounds. Most textbooks on the subject provide little or no review of the advanced calculus topics upon which much of mathematical statistics relies and furthermore contain material that is wholly theoretical thus presenting even greater challenges to those interested in applying advanced statistics to a specific area. Mathematical Statistics with Applications presents the background concepts and builds the technical sophistication needed to move on to more advanced studies in multivariate analysis decision theory stochastic processes or computational statistics. Applications embedded within theoretical discussions clearly demonstrate the utility of the theory in a useful and relevant field of application and allow readers to avoid sudden exposure to purely theoretical materials. With its clear explanations and more than usual emphasis on applications and computation this text reaches out to the many students and professionals more interested in the practical use of statistics to enrich their work in areas such as communications computer science economics astronomy and public health.

Structure and Functions of Amine Oxidases

Structure and Functions of Amine Oxidases

A good portion of this book has been devoted to the copper-dependent enzymes these being the more numerous. The chapter dealing with serum amine oxidases also focuses attention on their catalytic mechanism as these enzymes have been studied in greater depth. As the presentation of topics whose experimental basis is rapidly developing is likely to stimulate the reader‘s interest many bibliographic references have been included. Readers could find this book poor as far as many topics are dealt with in a relatively little space but we believe it essential to trace the background of our present knowledge in the field of amine oxidases stressing the future outlook of research on these enzymes for they are becoming more and more important in general and medical biochemistry. | Structure and Functions of Amine Oxidases
