Microwave and Radio-Frequency Technologies in Agriculture
Author: Mohan V. Jacob
Publisher: Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG
ISBN: 3110455471
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 396
Book Description
Humanity's ability to produce enough food is mostly due to adoption of new methods and technologies by the agricultural industries as they became available. New information, communication and high speed processing and precision agriculture technologies have the potential to transform the agricultural industry. These technologies incorporate radio-frequency and microwave radiation into their systems. This book presents an overview of how these technologies are being used in agricultural systems. The main purpose of the book is to provide a glimpse of what is possible and encourage practitioners in the engineering and agricultural industries to explore how radio-frequency and microwave systems might further enhance the agricultural industry. The authors have extensive experience in agricultural and microwave engineering, instrumentation and communication systems.

Inspection and Monitoring Techniques for Bridges and Civil Structures
Author: G Fu
Publisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 1845690958
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 283
Book Description
The safety, maintenance and repair of bridges and buildings depend on effective inspection and monitoring techniques. These methods need to be able to identify problems often hidden within structures before they become serious. This important collection reviews key techniques and their applications to bridges, buildings and other civil structures.The first group of chapters reviews ways of testing corrosion in concrete components. Given their continuing importance and vulnerability to decay, the next series of chapters describes ways of testing wood components within civil structures. A final group of chapters looks at visual and acoustic techniques and their use to assess bridges in particular.Inspection and monitoring techniques for bridges and civil structures is an invaluable reference for civil engineers involved in safety inspection, maintenance and repair of bridges and civil structures. - Reviews key inspection and monitoring techniques and their applications to bridges, building and other civil structures - Edited by a leading authority in the field

Thermo-Hydro-Mechanical Wood Processing
Author: Parvis Navi
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 1439860424
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 374
Book Description
Describing the history and state-of-the-art of the thermo-hydrous manipulation of wood, this book provides either a desk reference or a field manual of wood science. It examines the polymeric components of wood and its multilevel hierarchical structure that confer its unique general-purpose character and faculty for transformation. Exceeding all other material in its capacity to deform under controlled conditions and for a proscribed outcome, wood, under thermo-hydrous conditions, permits a multitude of industrial processes. Discussing the processes at work and the industrial applications, this book is a must for all interested in the manipulation of wood.

Publisher: Notion Press
ISBN:
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 581
Book Description
The Stri? Dharma Paddhati? unveils the Vaidika s?dhan? m?rg which is customised for a woman’s body and mind. As the English translation and interpretation of the 18th-century Sa?sk?tam compilation titled "Stri?dharmapaddhati?" by Tryambakayajvan, this book stands as a reliable authority on the religious and spiritual practices of Hindu women according to the Veda-s and ??stra-s. This book takes a scientific approach to interpreting the Sa?sk?tam verses, using the language of the subtle science of tridos?a-s, n?d?i?-s, pañcapr??a-s, marma-s and cakra-s to help us comprehend how the ? ? i-s perceived reality. It draws on ancient sciences such as ?yurveda, Tantra, V?stu and Jyotis?a ??stra, as well as modern research studies, offering a comprehensive understanding of the advanced science behind Hindu rituals and traditions. Part 1 of this book explains the daily rituals called A?hnika Dharma, which includes Dehali? pu?ja?, Svastika & Ran?gavalli? (sanctifying the entrance), ?auca?ca?ra (purificatory rites), ?camana (ritual sipping of water), Dantadha?vanam (cleaning the teeth), Goseva (taking care of cows), Sn?nam (bathing), Vastra dharana (wearing clothes), ?ayana and Sam?yog?cara (sleeping and sexual intercourse) and a few others. Additionally, Part 1 provides details on women’s role in daily rituals such as Agnikriy?, Arghyad?nam?, Deva pu?ja?, Vai?vadeva, Athiti pu?ja?, and Bali. Scientific explanations of the various practices that are part of ?r?n?ga?ram?, such as the use of tilak, kun?kuma, sindu?r, mangals?tra, nose and ear ornaments, toe rings and anklets, etc. are also included in Part 1.
