Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Although there are many books on project management, few address the issues associated with scientific research. This work is based on extensive scientific research and management experiences and is designed to provide an introduction to planning and managing scientific research for the beginning researcher. The aim is to build an understanding of the nature of scientific research, and the way in which research projects can be developed, planned and managed to a successful outcome. The book is designed to help the transition from being a member of a research team to developing a project and making them work, and to provide a framework for future work. The emphasis of the book is on broadly applicable principles that can be of value irrespective of discipline. It should be of value to researchers in the later stages of Ph.D. work and Postdoctoral workers, and also for independent researchers.…

Hardcover. Condition: Fair. Aus einer Bibliothek ausgesondert/ Stempel; Leichte Gebrauchsspuren. Geophysical Continua presents a systematic treatment of deformation in the Earth from seismic to geologic time scales, and demonstrates the linkages between different aspects of the Earth's interior that are often treated separately. A unified treatment of solids and fluids is developed to include thermodynamics and electrodynamics, in order to cover the full range of tools needed to understand the interior of the globe. The emphasis throughout the book is on relating seismological observations with interpretations of earth processes. Physical principles and mathematical descriptions are developed that can be applied to a broad spectrum of geodynamic problems. Incorporating illustrative examples and an introduction to modern computational techniques, this textbook is designed for graduate-level courses in geophysics and geodynamics. It is also a useful reference for practising Earth Scientists.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Seismic Wave Propagation in Stratified Media presents a systematic treatment of the interaction of seismic waves with Earth structure. The theoretical development is physically based and is closely tied to the nature of the seismograms observed across a wide range of distance scales - from a few kilometres as in shallow reflection work for geophysical prospecting, to many thousands of kilometres for major earthquakes. A unified framework is presented for all classes of seismic phenomena, for both body waves and surface waves. Since its first publication in 1983 this book has been an important resource for understanding the way in which seismic waves can be understood in terms of reflection and transmission properties of Earth models, and how complete theoretical seismograms can be calculated. The methods allow the development of specific approximations that allow concentration on different seismic arrivals and hence provide a direct tie to seismic observations.…

TATMAN, WITH A FOREWORD BY FIELD MARSHALL MONTGOMERY OF ALAMEIN. PUBLISHED IN 1970 BY LEO COOPER IN ASSOCATION WITH SECKER & WARBURG, THIRD IMMPRESSION 1984. A blue coloured hardback book with gilt titles on the spine and a pair of gilt crests on front board.

Please note for overseas buyers, postage/shipping abroad may increase from listed postage/shipping price depending on final destination. "From Rapier to Rocket" might well have been the title of this book which traces the story of the Corps, born in the darkest days of the Second World War, to the present time. Whilst it is historically correct, the work is a story rather than history. After an interesting chapter on the ancestry, and the awakening to mechanization in the First World War, the story traces the advances in technology which led inevitably to the formation of a Royal Corps of Electrical and Mechanical Engineers to cope with new and complex weapons in the Second World War.…
