  • Gender and Boyle's Law of Gasesby Elizabeth Potter

    Indiana University Press 2001; US$ 15.15

    Gender and Boyle's Law of Gases Elizabeth Potter Re-examines the assumptions and experimental evidence behind Boyle's Law. Boyle's Law, which describes the relation between the pressure and volume of a gas, was worked out by Robert Boyle in the mid-1600s. His experiments are still considered examples of good scientific work and continue to be studied along with their historical and intellectual contexts by philosophers, historians, and sociologists. Now there is controversy over whether Boyle's work was based only on experimental evidence or whether it was influenced by the politics and religious controversies... more...

  • Gas Tables by S.M. Yahya

    New Age International Pvt. Ltd., Publishers 2006; US$ 20.00

    The subject of compressible flow or gas dynamics deals with the thermo-fluid dynamic problems of gases and vapours. It is now an important part of the undergraduate and postgraduate curricula. Fundamentals of Compressible Flow covers this subject in fourteen well organised chapters in a lucid style. A large mass of theoretical material and equations has been supported by a number of figures and graphical depictions. Author's sprawling teaching experience in this subject and allied areas is reflected in the clarity, and systematic and logical presentation. more...

  • Concentration Fluctuations and Averaging Time in Vapor Cloudsby David J. Wilson

    John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 2010; US$ 134.00

    This book contributes to more reliable and realistic predictions by focusing on sampling times from a few seconds to a few hours. Its objectives include developing clear definitions of statistical terms, such as plume sampling time, concentration averaging time, receptor exposure time, and other terms often confused with each other or incorrectly specified in hazard assessments; identifying and quantifying situations for which there is no adequate knowledge to predict concentration fluctuations in the near-field, close to sources, and far downwind where dispersion is dominated by atmospheric turbulence; identifying areas where further information is required to define concentration variability statistics; and formulating an operation model... more...

  • The Matter of Airby Steven Connor

    Reaktion Books 2010; US$ 39.00

    Take a deep breath. Air—without it, life on Earth would cease to exist. Though not usually seen, its presence is relied upon. At once both ethereal and physical, air has been associated with flight and spirit, and yet it has progressively become a territory that can be claimed through communications, warfare, travel, and scientific exploration. At the same time, air is no longer a completely reliable part of our daily life: like water, it has become an environmental element that must be watched closely for quality and purity.             A Matter of Air investigates the meanings of air over the last three centuries, including our modern concern over emissions and climate change.... more...

  • Interactions in Ultracold Gasesby Weidemü; Matthias ller; Claus Zimmermann

    Campus Verlag 2012; US$ 32.16

    Hauptbeschreibung Water is never just Hv(2)O. It is always more. It has its own ways of world-making and is much more than just a substance or a commodity. Water is also a focal point of religious meanings and inspires cultural practices. The book shows the different forms, the wide range and the impressive diversity of people´s dealings with water in different cultures. It presents case studies from various parts of the world, staging problems about changing accessibility of water and the expectations of men and women at different places. While focusing on the micro level the transdisciplinary approach highlights the fundamental differences of water related meanings and practices.   Biographische Informationen Hans Peter Hahn ist... more...
