Описание:
This book is the first comprehensive overview and evaluation of the origins, history and current size and condition of all of Iceland's major glaciers (including Vatnaj?kull, the largest in Europe) at the beginning of the twenty-first century. It is not only illustrated with many beautiful photographs and graphs of recent statistics and scientific data, but is also a collection of historical writings and drawings from annals, sagas, folk tales, diaries, reports, stories and poems, as it presents a unique approach to the study of glaciers on an island in the North Atlantic.
Balancing and comparing the world of man with the world of nature, the perceptions of art and culture with the systematic and pragmatic analyses of science, The Glaciers of Iceland present a wide spectrum of readers with a new and stimulating view of the origins, development and possible future of these massive natural phenomena, as well as the study and role of glaciology, within specific time lines and geographical locations. Icelandic glaciers the author argues could prove essential for understanding the current unsettling progress of global warming. The glaciers of Iceland, therefore, aims at presenting to a wide readership an original, historical, cultural and scientific overview of these geophysical features in Iceland while also suggesting increasingly important lessons and models for man's future interaction with the world's glaciers as a whole.

Описание: Sustainable landscaping is a set of practices that are designed as a response measure to environmental issues, such as global climate change, pollution, carbon sequestration, pesticide poisoning, etc. It encompasses all stages of landscaping including design, construction, management and implementation. Some of the unsustainable factors that have a detrimental effect on the environment include soil, air and water contamination, greenhouse gas emissions, toxic compounds in the environment, etc. Some of the sustainable landscaping solutions include bio-filtering of wastes by constructed wetlands, landscape irrigation using gray water, using Integrated Pest Management, recycling of products, etc. Such solutions can be integrated in building design, which encompasses all aspects of engineering, technical and architectural applications to the design of building. Most of the topics introduced in this book cover new techniques and applications of sustainable landscaping in building design. While understanding the long-term perspectives of the topics, the book makes an effort in highlighting their impact as a modern tool for the growth of the disciplines. For someone with an interest and eye for detail, this book covers the most significant topics in the field of sustainable landscaping and building design.

Описание: Engineering dynamics and vibrations has become an essential topic for ensuring structural integrity and operational functionality in different engineering areas. However, practical problems regarding dynamics and vibrations are in many cases handled without success despite large expenditures.
Описание: This book includes a collection of chapters that were presented at the International Conference on Earthquake Engineering and Structural Dynamics (ICESD), held in Reykjavik, Iceland between 12-14 June 2017. The contributions address a wide spectrum of subjects related to wind engineering, earthquake engineering, and structural dynamics. Dynamic behavior of ultra long span bridges that are discussed in this volume represent one of the most challenging and ambitious contemporary engineering projects. Concepts, principles, and applications of earthquake engineering are presented in chapters addressing various aspects such as ground motion modelling, hazard analysis, structural analysis and identification, design and detailing of structures, risk due to non-structural components, and risk communication and mitigation.
The presented chapters represent the state-of-the-art in these fields as well as the most recent developments.
