On Kink's Edge
Author: M.C. Roth
Publisher: Totally Entwined Group (USA+CAD)
ISBN: 1839433000
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 218
Book Description
FROM EXCITING AUTHOR OF LGBTQIA ROMANCE FICTION M.C. ROTH Book six in the It' s a Kink Thing series When kink gets boring, it' s time to play on the edge. “ Yes, Sir. No, Sir. Thank you, Sir.” It was the same old thing for as long as Keady could remember, and kink had officially become boring. Fresh out of a year-long contract, the only one who catches Keady' s eye is Cutler, a Dom who looks as menacing as his name. It' s too bad Keady is convinced Cutler is some kind of serial killer and not worth the risk of ending up in a freezer. To try to spark some excitement, Keady throws out his limits— every single one. The decision lands him in a dangerous situation with an unfamiliar Dom, and, surprisingly, it' s Cutler who comes to his rescue. But with Keady already thinking about leaving the community at Unkinked behind, it' s up to Cutler to push him to the edge and beyond.

Nonlinear Random Waves
Author: Vladimir V. Konotop
Publisher: World Scientific
ISBN: 9789810217259
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 312
Book Description
This book is mainly devoted to the dynamics of the one-dimensional nonlinear stochastic waves. It contains a description of the basic mathematical tools as well as the latest results in the following fields: exactly integrable nonlinear stochastic equations, dynamics of the nonlinear waves in random media, evolution of the random waves in nonlinear media and the basic concepts of the numerical simulations in nonlinear random wave dynamics. A brief outline of the localization phenomenon in the nonlinear medium is also given. The approach is interdisciplinary describing the general methods with application to specific examples. The results presented may be useful for those who work in the areas of solid state physics, hydrodynamics, nonlinear optics, plasma physics, mathematical models of micromolecules and biological structures, ?etc. Since many results are based on the inverse scattering technique, perturbation theory for solitons and the methods of the statistical radiophysics, the terminology of the respective fields is used.

The Sage Encyclopedia of LGBTQ+ Studies, 2nd Edition
Author: Abbie E. Goldberg
Publisher: SAGE Publications
ISBN: 1071891405
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 1657
Book Description
The SAGE Encyclopedia of LGBTQ Studies, 2nd Edition will be a broad, interdisciplinary product aimed at students and educators interested in an interdisciplinary perspective on LGBTQ issues. This far-reaching and contemporary set of volumes is meant to examine and provide understandings of the lives and experiences of LGBTQ individuals, with attention to the contexts and forces that shape their world. The volume will address questions such as: What are the key theories used to understand variations in sexual orientation and gender identity? How do LGBTQ+ people experience the transition to parenthood? How does sexual orientation intersect with other key social locations (e.g., race) to shape experience and identity? What does LGBTQ+ affirmative therapy look like? How have anti-LGBTQ ballot measures affected LGBTQ people? What are LGBTQ+ people’s experiences during COVID-19? How were LGBTQ+ people impacted by the Trump administration? What is life like for LGBTQ+ people living outside the United States? This encyclopedia will be a unique product on the market: a reference work that looks at LGBTQ issues and identity primarily through the lenses of psychology, human development, and sociology, and emphasizing queer, feminist, and ecological perspectives on this topic. Entries will be written by top researchers and clinicians across multiple fields—psychology, human development, gender/queer studies, sexuality studies, social work, nursing, cultural studies, education, family studies, medicine, public health, and sociology—contributing to approximately 450-500 signed entries. All entries will include cross-references and Further Readings.

Analysis of Geological Structures
Author: Neville J. Price
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9780521319584
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 524
Book Description
A knowledge of structural geology is fundamental to understanding the processes by which the earth's crust has evolved. It is a subject of fundamental importance to students of geology, experienced field geologists and academic researchers as well as to petroleum and mining engineers. In contrast to many structural textbooks which dwell upon geometrical descriptions of geological structures, this book emphasises mechanical principles and the way in which they can be used to understand how and why a wide range of geological structures develop. Structures on all scales are considered but the emphasis of the book is on those that can be seen on the scale of hand specimen or outcrop. Drawing on their considerable teaching experience the authors present a coherent and lucid analysis of geological structures which will be welcomed by a wide variety of earth scientists.

Dislocations in Solids
Author:
Publisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 0080524680
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 681
Book Description
Dislocations are lines of irregularity in the structure of a solid analogous to the bumps in a badly laid carpet. Like these bumps they can be easily moved, and they provide the most important mechanism by which the solid can be deformed. They also have a strong influence on crystal growth and on the electronic properties of semiconductors.·Influence of dislocations on piezoelectric behavior·New mechanisms for hardening in twinned crystals·Bringing theories of martensite transformation into agreement·Atomic scale motion of dislocations in electron microscopy·Dislocation patterns deduced from X-ray diffraction·Role of dislocations in friction·Dislocation motion in quasicrystals
