This book provides different engineering, management, economic solutions and methodologies regarding sustainable aviation, giving readers a great sense of how sustainable aviation works at the “systems” level. The aviation industry is one of the fastest growing in the world and can make a positive contribution to sustainability. This book presents environmental policies and their application to the aviation industry and evaluates solutions provided to address pollution. Chapters discuss novel technologies that the aviation industry can apply to reduce its environmental impact and become more energy efficient.
This book provides readers with a basic understanding of the concepts and methodologies of sustainable aviation.The book is divided into three sections : basic principles the airport side, and the aircraft side. In-depth chapters discuss the key elements of sustainable aviation and provide complete coverage of essential topics including airport, energy, and noise management along with novel technologies, standards and a review of the current literature on green airports, sustainable aircraft design, biodiversity management, and alternative fuels. Engineers, researchers and students will find the fundamental approach useful and will benefit from the many engineering examples and solutions provided.
Aerodynamics is a science that improves the ability to understand theoretical basics and apply fundamental physics in real-life problems. The study of the motion of air, both externally over an airplane wing and internally over a scramjet engine intake, has acknowledged the significance of studying both incompressible and compressible flow aerodynamics. The Handbook of Research on Aspects and Applications of Incompressible and Compressible Aerodynamics discusses all aspects of aerodynamics from application to theory. It further presents the equations and mathematical models used to describe and characterize flow fields as well as their thermodynamic aspects and applications. Covering topics such as airplane configurations, hypersonic vehicles, and the parametric effect of roughness, this premier reference source is an essential resource for engineers, scientists, students and educators of higher education, military experts, libraries, government officials, researchers, and academicians.
This book comprises select proceedings of the International Conference on Future Learning Aspects of Mechanical Engineering (FLAME 2018). The book gives an overview of recent developments in the field of thermal and fluid engineering, and covers theoretical and experimental fluid dynamics, numerical methods in heat transfer and fluid mechanics, different modes of heat transfer, multiphase transport and phase change, fluid machinery, turbo machinery, and fluid power. The book is primarily intended for researchers and professionals working in the field of fluid dynamics and thermal engineering.
This book gathers an in-depth collection of 45 selected papers presented at the Global Conference on Global Warming 2014 in Beijing, China, covering a broad variety of topics from the main principles of thermodynamics and their role in design, analysis, and the improvements in performance of energy systems to the potential impact of global warming on human health and wellbeing. Given energy production’s role in contributing to global warming and climate change, this work provides solutions to global warming from the point of view of energy. Incorporating multi-disciplinary expertise and approaches, it provides a platform for the analysis of new developments in the area of global warming and climate change, as well as potential energy solutions including renewable energy, energy efficiency, energy storage, hydrogen production, CO2 capture and environmental impact assessment. The research and analysis presented herein will benefit international scientists, researchers, engineers, policymakers and all others with an interest in global warming and its potential solutions.
This multi-disciplinary book presents the most recent advances in exergy, energy, and environmental issues. Volume 1 focuses on fundamentals in the field and covers current problems, future needs, and prospects in the area of energy and environment from researchers worldwide. Based on selected lectures from the Seventh International Exergy, Energy and Environmental Symposium (IEEES7-2015) and complemented by further invited contributions, this comprehensive set of contributions promote the exchange of new ideas and techniques in energy conversion and conservation in order to exchange best practices in "energetic efficiency". Included are fundamental and historical coverage of the green trans...
TAKDÎM Evvelâ: Rabb-i Rahîm’imize hadsiz hamd ü senâlar olsun ki; Kur’ân’ın kalbi mesâbesinde olan Yâsîn Sûresi’nin mev‘úd, mübeşşer, i‘câzî ve bürhânî bir tefsîri olan “Yirmi Beşinci Mektûb” nâmındaki bu eseri, lütuf ve rahmetinin bir tecellîsi olarak bize ihsân buyurdu. Kezâ, Resûl-i Ekrem (asm)’a nihâyetsiz salât ve selâm olsun ki; Kur’ân-ı Mu‘cizü’l-Beyân’ı bize teblîğ ve ta‘lîm buyurdu. Sâniyen: Üstâd Bedîuzzamân (ra) Hazretleri, “Yirmi Beşinci Mektûb” hakkında; “Sûre-yi Yâsîn’in yirmi beş âyetine dâir ‘Yirmi Beş Nükte’ olmak üzere rahmet-i İlâhiyyeden istenilmiş; fakat daha zamânı gel...
This book presents a holistic view of climate change by examining a number of energy and transportation technologies and their impact on the climate. High-quality technical research results from specific test-cases around the globe are presented, and developments in global warming are discussed, focusing on current emissions policies from air and maritime transport to fossil fuel applications. Novel technologies such as carbon capture and storage are investigated together with the corresponding process and systems analysis, as well as optimization for mitigating CO2 emissions. Water resources management, waste water treatment, and waste management issues are also covered. Finally, biomass, hydrogen and solar energy applications are presented along with some insights on green buildings. Energy, Transportation and Global Warming is of great interest to researchers in the field of renewable and green energy as well as professionals in climate change management, the transportation sector, and environmental policy.
Gregor Samsa, bir sabah yatağından kalkamadığında önce neye uğradığını bilemez. Zamanla bir böceğe dönüştüğünü anlar. Artık normalleri değişmiş ve kokuşmuş yiyeceklerden hoşlanmaya başlamıştır. Eskiden iğrendiği şeyler şimdi keyif objesi haline gelmiştir. ‘Dönüşüm’ bir bilim kurgu romanı değil; ekonomik gücün toplumsal ilişkileri belirleme ve dönüştürme gücünü analiz eder. Kafka, Metamorfoz’u bugünün Türkiye’sinde yazsaydı hayal gücüne fazla iş düşmezdi. 85 yaşındaki Sisi Bingöl’e ya da yeni doğum yapmış lohusa kadınlara eziyet etmekten haz alan bir ‘Yeni Türkiye’ var karşımızda. Nitelik ve nicelik olarak küçülen, dönüşen ama fark etmeyen bir toplum.
Muhtasar İslâm Tarihi adı altında yazmış olduğum bu eser, İslâm dininin, ne suretle kurulduğunu, hangi prensiplere dayandığını ve ne gibi şartlar altında muhafaza edilmeye gayret sarfedildiğini içine almaktadır. Peygamber Efendimiz (s.a.v.) ile ortaya konan İslâm dininin esaslarını anlamak, tefsir ilminin gerektirdiği esbab-ı nüzûl’ ü bilmek ve olayların izahında gereken hakikatleri hadis-i şeriflerle öğrenmek; nihayet, insanın günlük hayatına giren bazı dinî meselelerin menşeini bilmek için Peygamberimizin hayatını iyi bilmek icap etmektedir. Bunu öğrenmeye çalışırken de önce İslâm Peygamberinin yaşadığı devri bir bütün halinde, ya...
