Эта книга, написанная известными американскими специалистами, посвящена основам работы с программой Autodesk Revit на основе Revit Architecture 2013 и 2014 версий. В ней достаточно умело объясняется, как надо начинать работу с Revit, что делать на первой (эскизной) стадии проектирования, как развивать и улучшать уже начатый проект, как создавать и оформлять спецификации и чертежи. Но эта книга учит не только и не столько «нажимать кнопки», ее главная задача – помочь начинающему пользователю понять суть работы в Revit, основные принципы создания модели здания, суть проектной работы на основе технологии информационного моделирования зданий (BIM). Кроме традиционного изучения возможностей программы Revit, большое место в книге отводится вопросам организации проектирования в условиях внедрения BIM как на начальной, так и на последующих стадиях, взаимодействию членов коллектива, особенностям использования программы Revit, полезным советам и анализу возможных проблем. При этом через всю книгу проходит главная мысль, что переход на BIM – это не смена программного обеспечения, это освоение новой технологии проектирования, требующее переделки сложившихся ранее производственных отношений. Книга будет полезна как начинающим, так и опытным пользователям, желающим хорошо разобраться в особенностях работы программы Revit Architecture и озадаченным переходом в своей проектной практике на новую технологию BIM.

Die technische Komplexitat von Gebauden hat massiv zuggenommen. Fast alle Bereiche der Gebaudetechnik sind heute zumindest teilweise automatisiert, um z. B. das Raumklima zu optimieren, den Energieverbrauch zu senken, Brand- und Rauchentwicklung fruhzeitig zu erkennen und zu unterbinden und im Ganzen eine kostengunstigere Bewirtschaftung zu ermoglichen. Numerische Simulationsverfahren sind daher aus der Gebaudeplanung und im Bestand nicht mehr wegzudenken und werden auf allen Gebieten der Bauphysik eingesetzt. Ihre Anwendung erfordert Hintergrundwissen zu den verwendeten Berechnungsverfahren, um sie wirtschaftlich einzusetzen und Fehler zu vermeiden. Auch die Modellgenauigkeit spielt fur die Interpretation von Simulationsergebnissen eine bedeutende Rolle und wird haufig unterschatzt, ihre Verifikation muss nachvollziehbar sein. Au?erdem sind aufgrund von Vereinfachungen manche Ergebnisse nur fur bestimmte Parameter brauchbar. Nicht zuletzt erfordert die Anwendung und Interpretation von Simulationen auch die Berucksichtigung von eventuellen Ungenauigkeiten der Eingabeparameter. Der Bauphysik-Kalender 2015 gibt wertvolle Praxishinweise zur Softwareanwendung anhand von Beispielen.

Die Standardkapitel zur Brandschutzbemessung von Bauteilen f?r alle Bauarten nach den Eurocodes 1 bis 6 und gem?? Industriebau-Richtlinie wurden f?r die vorliegende Ausgabe aktualisiert und ?berarbeitet. Die ganzheitliche Betrachtung des vorbeugenden Brandschutzes unter Ber?cksichtigung der nutzungsbedingten Gef?hrdungspotentiale und Schutzziele spielt bei der Planung und Errichtung von Bauwerken eine wesentliche Rolle und verlangt von allen Beteiligten bei Entwurf und Planung, von Bauproduktenherstellern, Materialpr?fungs?mtern und Bauaufsichtsbeh?rden ein hohes Ma? an Fachkenntnis ?ber den aktuellen Stand der Technik aller relevanten Bereiche. Nur durch eine interdisziplin?re Zusammenarbeit k?nnen sichere und optimierte Brandschutzkonzepte entwickelt und realisiert werden, Umplanungen vermieden und Genehmigungsverfahren optimiert werden. Daher bietet die aktuelle Ausgabe des Bauphysik-Kalender spezielle Kapitel zur Anwendung der Ingenieurmethoden (z. B. Parkgaragen, Schulgeb?ude), zum spezifischen Brandverhalten ausgew?hlter Baumaterialien (z. B. D?mmstoffe aus nachwachsenden Rohstoffen) und zum spezifischen Brandschutz bei ausgew?hlten Baukonstruktionen (z. B. Au?enwandbekleidungen). Im Hinblick auf die Wirtschaftlichkeit von Planungsentw?rfen sind h?ufig Brandschutzkonzepte mithilfe von Ingenieurmethoden zielf?hrend, w?hrend es in der Planung selbst durch Building Information Modelling (BIM) Einsparpotentiale gibt. Die Stellung des Brandschutzes im Bauordnungsrecht sowie die Regelungen zur Verwendung von Bauprodukten und Bauarten sind grundlegend und werden praxisnah erl?utert. Wie immer bewegen sich alle Kapitel nahe an der Ingenieurpraxis und enthalten zahlreiche Beispiele. Auch verbreitete Fehler bei der Bauausf?hrung und w?hrend der Nutzung werden diskutiert. Der neue Bauphysik-Kalender 2021 mit dem Schwerpunktthema Brandschutz bietet eine solide Arbeitsgrundlage und ein verl?ssliches aktuelles Nachschlagewerk f?r die Planung in Neubau und Bestand, und zwar sowohl f?r den konstruktiven Brandschutz als auch f?r die ingenieurm??igen Brandschutzkonzepte.

Pipe jacking is a construction process for the no-dig laying of pipes. Successful pipe jacking demands low skin friction between the ground and the jacked pipe. This is achieved with bentonite lubrication. The bentonite slurry fed into the annular gap fulfils several purposes. It stabilises the annular gap by supporting the surrounding ground and reduces friction contact between ground and jacked pipe. The Bentonite Handbook deals comprehensibly with the relevant aspects of annular gap lubrication: starting with the ground conditions, which are of decisive importance for lubrication, through the rheological properties of the bentonite slurry to the technical components of lubrication technology and lubrication strategy. The use of standardised measuring apparatus is described as well as mixing equipment and the automatic lubrication system. Overview tables with calculations and suggested values for bentonite consumption quantities depending on the prevailing ground conditions and the pipe jacking parameters complete the recommendations.

In the nematic liquid crystal phase, rod-shaped molecules move randomly but remain essentially parallel to one another. Biaxial nematics, which were first predicted in 1970 by Marvin Freiser, have their molecules differentially oriented along two axes. They have the potential to create displays with fast switching times and may have applications in thin-film displays and other liquid crystal technologies. This book is the first to be concerned solely with biaxial nematic liquid crystals, both lyotropic and thermotropic, formed by low molar mass as well as polymeric systems. It opens with a general introduction to the biaxial nematic phase and covers: • Order parameters and distribution functions • Molecular field theory • Theories for hard biaxial particles • Computer simulation of biaxial nematics • Alignment of the phase • Display applications • Characterisation and identification • Lyotropic, thermotropic and colloidal systems together with material design With a consistent, coherent and pedagogical approach, this book brings together theory, simulations and experimental studies; it includes contributions from some of the leading figures in the field. It is relevant to students and researchers as well as to industry professionals working in soft matter, liquid crystals, liquid crystal devices and their applications throughout materials science, chemistry, physics, mathematics and display engineering.

As the state-of-the-art imaging technologies became more and more advanced, yielding scientific data at unprecedented detail and volume, the need to process and interpret all the data has made image processing and computer vision increasingly important. Sources of data that have to be routinely dealt with today's applications include video transmission, wireless communication, automatic fingerprint processing, massive databanks, non-weary and accurate automatic airport screening, robust night vision, just to name a few. Multidisciplinary inputs from other disciplines such as physics, computational neuroscience, cognitive science, mathematics, and biology will have a fundamental impact in the progress of imaging and vision sciences. One of the advantages of the study of biological organisms is to devise very different type of computational paradigms by implementing a neural network with a high degree of local connectivity. This is a comprehensive and rigorous reference in the area of biologically motivated vision sensors. The study of biologically visual systems can be considered as a two way avenue. On the one hand, biological organisms can provide a source of inspiration for new computational efficient and robust vision models and on the other hand machine vision approaches can provide new insights for understanding biological visual systems. Along the different chapters, this book covers a wide range of topics from fundamental to more specialized topics, including visual analysis based on a computational level, hardware implementation, and the design of new more advanced vision sensors. The last two sections of the book provide an overview of a few representative applications and current state of the art of the research in this area. This makes it a valuable book for graduate, Master, PhD students and also researchers in the field.

The ever expanding market need for information on how to apply project management principles and the PMBOK® contents to day-to-day business situations has been met by our case studies book by Harold Kerzner. That book was a spin-off from and ancillary to his best selling text but has gained a life of its own beyond adopters of that textbook. All indications are that the market is hungry for more cases while our own need to expand the content we control, both in-print and online woudl benefit from such an expansion of project management «case content». The authors propose to produce a book of cases that compliment Kerzner's book.

CHEMICAL PROCESS ENGINEERING [b]Written by two of the most prolific and respected chemical engineers in the world, this groundbreaking two-volume set is the “new standard” in the industry, offering engineers and students alike the most up-do-date, comprehensive, and state-of-the-art coverage of processes and best practices in the field today. This first new volume in a two-volume set explores and describes integrating new tools for engineering education and practice for better utilization of the existing knowledge on process design. Useful not only for students, professors, scientists and practitioners, especially process, chemical, mechanical and metallurgical engineers, it is also a valuable reference for other engineers, consultants, technicians and scientists concerned about various aspects of industrial design. The text can be considered as a complementary text to process design for senior and graduate students as well as a hands-on reference work or refresher for engineers at entry level. The contents of the book can also be taught in intensive workshops in the oil, gas, petrochemical, biochemical and process industries. The book provides a detailed description and hands-on experience on process design in chemical engineering, and it is an integrated text that focuses on practical design with new tools, such as Excel spreadsheets and UniSim simulation software. Written by two industry and university’s most trustworthy and well-known authors, this book is the new standard in chemical, biochemical, pharmaceutical, petrochemical and petroleum refining. Covering design, analysis, simulation, integration, and, perhaps most importantly, the practical application of Microsoft Excel-UniSim software, this is the most comprehensive and up-to-date coverage of all of the latest developments in the industry. It is a must-have for any engineer or student’s library.

This book is devoted to the problems of construction and application of chi-squared goodness-of-fit tests for complete and censored data. Classical chi-squared tests assume that unknown distribution parameters are estimated using grouped data, but in practice this assumption is often forgotten. In this book, we consider modified chi-squared tests, which do not suffer from such a drawback. The authors provide examples of chi-squared tests for various distributions widely used in practice, and also consider chi-squared tests for the parametric proportional hazards model and accelerated failure time model, which are widely used in reliability and survival analysis. Particular attention is paid to the choice of grouping intervals and simulations. This book covers recent innovations in the field as well as important results previously only published in Russian. Chi-squared tests are compared with other goodness-of-fit tests (such as the Cramer-von Mises-Smirnov, Anderson-Darling and Zhang tests) in terms of power when testing close competing hypotheses.
