Free Download Sally Cummings, "Domestic and International Perspectives on Kyrgyzstan’s ‘Tulip Revolution’: Motives, Mobilization and Meanings"
English | 2009 | ISBN: 0415491908, 0415847125 | EPUB | pages: 160 | 1.1 mb
In early 2005 regional protests in Kyrgyzstan soon became national ones as protesters seized control of the country’s capital, Bishkek. The country’s president for fifteen years, Askar Akaev, fled the country and after a night of extensive looting, a new president, Kurmanbek Bakiev, came to power. The events quickly earned the epithet ‘Tulip Revolution’ and were interpreted as the third of the colour revolutions in the post-Soviet space, following Ukraine and Georgia. But did the events in Kyrgyzstan amount to a ‘revolution’? How much change followed and with what academic and policy implications? This innovative, unique study of these events brings together a new generation of Kyrgyz scholars together with established international observers to assess what happened in Kyrgyzstan and after, and the wider implications.

Free Download Mark E. Steinke, "Contemporary Perspectives on Air Cooling of Electronic Components"
English | 2013 | ISBN: 1567003044 | PDF | pages: 63 | 4.7 mb
In this book, the author discusses the roots of electronics cooling and how air cooling is still dominant over water cooling and will remain so for the near term. For over a century now, this area has been ripe with active research in many disciplines spanning heat transfer, thermodynamics, materials science, and structural engineering. Perhaps the most appealing feature of the electronics cooling field is the very multidisciplinary nature of the challenges being overcome. Unlike some other areas, the electronics cooling system designer must have knowledge of several disciplines to design and deliver the most optimal electronics cooling solution. In the future there will be a new roadmap laid out before us and there may be a time liquid cooling is required in mainstream computing. However, I see many current years where air cooling will play a critical role and must be improved to meet future needs.
