Book Description
Investigar la causa por la que es tan fácil quemarse el paladar al comer pizza, puede ser punto de partida de las interesantes consideraciones termodinámicas, y la aceituna en la copa de Martini, el comienzo de un viaje retrospectivo a través de una serie de importantes conquistas tecnológicas: cualquier pretexto es bueno para que el distinguido biofísico Harold J. Morowitz nos lleve, con un humor y una amenidad que no empañan en absoluto el rigor científico, de lo más particular a lo más general, de la anécdota cotidiana a las leyes universales, de las pequeñas preguntas a las grandes incógnitas y los incesantes esfuerzos del hombre por hallar respuestas. A través de sus ensayos, el autor pasa revista a los temas más apasionantes e insólitos de la ciencia y el pensamiento contemporáneos, desde las posibilidades y riesgos de la ingeniería genética hasta el paralelismo entre cerebros y ordenadores, pasando por las sutiles relaciones entre el béisbol y la filosofía.

The Design of Propeller Blade Roots
Author: G. Cordes
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Propellers, Aerial
Languages : en
Pages : 622
Book Description
Predicated on the assumption of certain normal conditions for engine and propeller, simple expressions for the static and dynamic stresses of propeller blade roots are evolved. They, in combination with the fatigue strength diagram of the employed material, afford for each engine power one certain operating point by which the state of stress serving as a basis for the design of the root is defined. Different stress cases must be analyzed, depending on the vibration tendency of engine and use of propeller. The solution affords an insight into the possible introduction of different size classes of propeller.

Innovation and ICT in Education
Author: José Gómez Galán
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 1000796922
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 161
Book Description
The adequate integration of information and communication technologies (ICT) in educational and training processes is one of the biggest current challenges in education. The classroom of the present is very different from just a few decades ago, new technological tools are completely transforming its characteristics and activities. This internationally authored book offers a timely, effective and practical vision of this new educational scenario. The book takes a multidisciplinary approach in looking at the problems and possible solutions that are faced by the educational professional of the 21st century when, by necessity or obligation, they face the use of ICT in their daily tasks. Divided into two parts, one theoretical and another practical, this book offers the highlights of the most important lines of research that are being developed today in educational technology, and importantly presents the innovations which have had the most impact over recent years. From the profound transformations in the physical classroom to everything that involves new virtual scenarios, where online teaching requires innovative strategies and training processes, this book describes the diverse scenarios that ICT has generated and will continue to generate in the field of education. It presents a new and a very different type of education that can be adapted to the needs of the citizen of the digital society.
