2013 International Conference on Biological, Medical and Chemical Engineering (BMCE2013)
Author: E. Purshotaman
Publisher: DEStech Publications, Inc
ISBN: 1605951447
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 741
Book Description
This proceeding is indeed the result of remarkable cooperation of many distinguished experts, who came together to contribute their research work and comprehensive, in-depth and up to date review articles. We are thankful to all the contributing authors and co-authors for their valued contribution to this book. We would also like to express our gratitude to all the publishers and authors and others for granting us the copyright permissions to use their illustrations. 2013 International Conference on Biological, Medical and Chemical Engineering (BMCE2013) which will be held on December 1-2, 2013, Hong Kong, aims to provide a forum for accessing to the most up-to-date and authoritative knowledge from both Biological, Medical and Chemical Engineering. The dynamic Hong Kong, officially the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People's Republic of China, is a largely self-governing territory of the People's Republic of China (PRC), facing the Guangdong Province in the north and the South China Sea to the east, west and south. Under the "one country, two systems" policy, Hong Kong enjoys considerable autonomy in all areas with the exception of foreign affairs and defense (which are the responsibility of the PRC Government). As part of this arrangement, Hong Kong continues to maintain its own currency, separate legal, political systems and other aspects that concern its way of life, many of which are distinct from those of mainland China. In relation with the title of this proceeding, Biological and Medical Engineering, Developmental biology, Environmental Biology, Evolutionary Biology, Marine Biology, Chemistry and Chemical Engineering Fundamentals, Chemical engineering educational challenges and development, Chemical reaction engineering, Chemical engineering equipment design and process design, Thermodynamics, Catalysis & reaction engineering, Advances in computational & numerical methods, Systems biology, Integration of Life Sciences & Engineering, Multi-scale and Multi-disciplinary Approaches, Controlled release of the active ingredient, Energy & nuclear sciences, Energy and environment, CFD & chemical engineering, Food engineering etc, has been targeted and included in this proceeding. The proceeding is the results of the contribution of a number of experts from the international scientific community in the respective field of research.

High Performance Computing in Science and Engineering '10
Author: Wolfgang E. Nagel
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3642157483
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 594
Book Description
This book presents the state-of-the-art in simulation on supercomputers. Leading researchers present results achieved on systems of the High Performance Computing Center Stuttgart (HLRS) for the year 2010. The reports cover all fields of computational science and engineering, ranging from CFD to computational physics and chemistry to computer science, with a special emphasis on industrially relevant applications.

Interpretations of Greek Mythology (Routledge Revivals)
Author: Jan N. Bremmer
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317800230
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 293
Book Description
Interpretations of Greek Mythology, first published in1987, builds on the innovative work of Walter Burkert and the ‘Paris school’ of Jean-Pierre Vernant, and represents a renewal of interpretation of Greek mythology. The contributors to this volume present a variety of approaches to the Greek myths, all of which eschew a monolithic or exclusively structuralist hermeneutic method. Specifically, the notion that mythology can simply be read as a primitive mode of narrative history is rejected, with emphasis instead being placed on the relationships between mythology and history, ritual and political genealogy. The essays concentrate on some of the best known characters and themes – Oedipus, Orpheus, Narcissus – reflecting the complexity and fascination of the Greek imagination. The volume will long remain an indispensable tool for the study of Greek mythology, and it is of great interest to anyone interested in the development of Greek culture and civilisation and the nature of myth.

Guide to the Contemporary Harp
Author: Mathilde Aubat-Andrieu
Publisher: Indiana University Press
ISBN: 025303941X
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 193
Book Description
Harps and harp music have enjoyed a renaissance over the past century and today can be heard in a broad array of musical contexts. Guide to the Contemporary Harp is a comprehensive resource that examines the vibrant present-day landscape of the harp. The authors explore the instrument from all angles, beginning with organology; moving through composition, notation, and playing techniques; and concluding with the contemporary repertoire for the harp. The rapid diversification in these areas of harp performance is the result of both technological innovations in harp making, which have produced the electric harp and MIDI harp, and innovative composers and players. These new instruments and techniques have broadened the concept of what is possible and what constitutes harp music for today. Guide to the Contemporary Harp is an essential guide for any harpist looking to push the instrument and its music to new heights.

Guide to Greece
Author: Pausanias
Publisher: Penguin UK
ISBN: 0141963123
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 447
Book Description
Written in the second century AD by a Greek traveller for a predominantly Roman audience, Pausanias' Guide to Greece is an extraordinarily literate and well-informed guidebook. A study of buildings, traditions and myth, it describes with precision and eloquence the glory of classical Greece shortly before its ultimate decline in the third century. This volume, the first of two, concerns the five provinces of central Greece, with an account of cities including Athens, Corinth and Thebes and a compelling depiction of the Oracle at Delphi. Along the way, Pausanias recounts Greek legends that are unknown from any other source and quotes a wealth of classical literature and poetry that would otherwise have been lost. An inspiration to Byron and Shelley, the Guide to Greece remains one of the most influential travel books ever written.
