Conway Maritime Press | 1984 | ISBN: 0851772994 | English | 198 pages | PDF | 98.47 MB
The submarine was the first technologically ‘stealthy’ weapon system. Its great value, indeed its mystique, lies in its invisibility, and much of submarine technology is intended to preserve that invisibility in the face of in¬creasingly sophisticated means of submarine detection. Submarine tactics and doctrine are often traceable to just that quality of stealthiness. Paradoxically, the submarine commander must shed his cloak in order to perform most of his missions. For example, a submarine reveals itself when it attacks its target.

The follow-up to the 2000 Golden Pen Award-winning Structural Design for the Stage, this second edition provides the theater technician with a foundation in structural design, allowing an intuitive understanding of "why sets stand up." It introduces the basics of statics and the study of the strength of materials as they apply to typical scenery, emphasizing conservative approaches to real world examples. This is an invaluable reference for any serious theatre technician throughout their career, from the initial study of the fundamental concepts, to the day-to-day use of the techniques and reference materials.

Free Download Old & New: Design Manual for Revitalizing Existing Buildings
English | 2012 | ISBN: 3034605250 | 192 Pages | PDF | 43 MB
Die meisten Gebäude, die in den nächsten Jahrzehnten in Europa benötigt werden, sind längst gebaut. Die Bauaufgaben der Zukunft liegen in der geschickten (Um-)Nutzung und Veränderung von Bestehendem, ob bei der Sanierung von Altstädten, beim Anbau an Wohnhäuser, bei der Erweiterung öffentlicher Gebäude oder der Umnutzung ganzer Fabrikareale. Das Bauen im Bestand erfordert spezifische Vorgehensweisen bei Planung, Bauausführung und Umsetzung. Die Bandbreite reicht dabei vom Arbeiten mit den Vorgaben des Denkmalschutzes, dem behutsamen Sanieren, bis hin zum vollständigen Überformen des Vorgefundenen. Neben der ästhetischen Transformation spielen auch technische Aspekte wie die energetische Ertüchtigung oder der Umgang mit kontaminierten Baustoffen eine wichtige Rolle.

Free Download Multidisciplinary Aspects of Design: Objects, Processes, Experiences and Narratives
English | 2024 | ISBN: 3031498100 | 796 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 171 MB
This open access book gathers the contributions from the Design! OPEN International Conference, held in Parma, Italy in May 2022. The conference explored the multidisciplinary aspects of design starting from its dimensions: objects (design as focused on the object, on its functional and symbolic dimension, and at the same time on the object as a tool for representing cultures), processes (the designer’s self-reflective moment which is focused on the analysis and on the definition of processes in various contexts, spanning innovation, social engagement, reflection on emergencies or forecasting), experiences (design as a theoretical and practical strategy aimed at facilitating experiential interactions among people, people and objects or environments), and narratives (making history, representing through different media, archiving, narrating, and exhibiting design). The contributions, which were selected by means of a rigorous international peer-review process, highlight numerous exciting ideas that will spur novel research directions and foster multidisciplinary collaboration among different specialists.

Free Download Design for a Sustainable Circular Economy: Research and Practice Consequences by Gavin Brett Melles, Christian Wölfel
English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2023 (2024 Edition) | 236 Pages | ISBN : 981997531X | 16.7 MB
This multi-authored book aims to illustrate the social, economic, and ecological factors that should determine and be determined by design in the implementation of a sustainable circular economy and society. We take design to refer to a continuum of perspectives and applications from industrial design to policy design, and this broad perspective invites theoretical and methodological contributions from a range of fields. In addition to bringing scholarly diversity to circularity, we expand and challenge the mainstream circular economy narrative of material efficiencies and green growth to include the demands of inclusive growth and ecological boundaries consistent with sustainable development. Readers from within and beyond design, conscious of the limitations of circular green growth will find new inspiration in this book regarding the nature of a sustainable circular economy and society and the broad design agenda that must be implemented to enable a just and informed circular transition.
