| | The Fashion Business: Theory, Practice, Image (Dress, Body, Culture Series)This book derives from a series of lectures organised by Kingston University in collaboration with the Italian manufacturer retailer MaxMara. The lectures, entitled ‘Perspectives in Fashion’, were launched in 1994 to explore emerging themes in the history and theory of fashion, with the objective of considering them in the context of... | | The Internet: An Ethnographic ApproachAn examination of Internet culture and consumption. The Internet is increasingly shaping, and being shaped by, users' lives. From cybercafes to businesses, from middle class houses to squatters settlements, the authors have gathered material on subjects as varied as personal relations, commerce, sex and religion. Websites are also analyzed as new... |

Computational Fluid Dynamics in Practice
Computational Fluid Dynamics in Practice explores the current and future developments in CFD, with the authors detailing advanced applications and case studies to demonstrate successes, illustrate the limitations, and identify methods for good practice. Designers, engineers, and researchers working in this field of fluid mechanics will... | | Cranes: Design, Practice, and Maintenance
This book looks at all types of cranes and deals with container and
grab unloader cranes in some detail.
The objective has been to give a general overview of this very wide
subject and then to provide positive, practical guidance to anyone
involved in the design, specification, selection, or operation and... | | Finite Element Methods for EngineersThe advent of high-speed electronic digital computers has given tremendous impetus to all numerical methods for solving engineering problems. Finite element methods form one of the most versatile classes of such methods, and were originally developed in the field of structural analysis. They are, however, equally applicable to continuum mechanics... |

Experiments in Undergraduate Mathematics: A Mathematica-Based ApproachAll students need to master a variety of mathematical tools and concepts at the start of their university career. This distinctive book helps students learn these by doing. The approach is interactive, using experiments, performed in the symbolic algebra package Mathematica, to impart the fundamentals of many of the topics students encounter. A... | | Green's Functions for Solid State PhysicistsThis volume shows how the analytic properties in the complex energy plane of the Green's functions of many particle systems account for the physical effects (level, shifts, damping, instabilities) characteristic of interacting systems. It concentrates on general physical principles and, while it does not discuss experiments in detail, includes... | | Gauge Theories In The Twentieth Century
By the end of the 1970s, it was clear that all the known forces of nature (including, in a sense, gravity) were examples of gauge theories, characterized by invariance under symmetry transformations chosen independently at each position and each time. These ideas culminated with the finding of the W and Z gauge bosons (and perhaps also the... |
