Anderson's Introduction to Flight is designed for first or
second-year engineering students and any reader looking for an
introduction to aerospace engineering. It is written in an
intentionally easy-to-understand style. Readers are introduced to
the basic areas of aerodynamics, flight dynamics, propulsion, and
space flight (astronautics). In this edition, space flight content
covers the expanding role of space vehicles within the field of
aerospace engineering. Continuing the tradition of the previous
edition, the 9th edition is intended not only to educate but also
to motivate the reader to pursue the subject of aerospace
engineering. In addition, new sections continue the unique
tradition of including historical content discussing the origins of
the technology. If you want to understand the engineering behind
how airplanes fly, how spacecrafts are launched into space, and how
they are able to follow the right path to their destination, this
book is for you.
This timely book explores the likely success or failure of
potential transport innovations. Chapters examine societally
relevant effects of transport transitions, including impacts on the
environment, accessibility, safety and more. It focuses on complex
innovations in which both public and private actors are involved.
Combining insights from innovation sciences with evolutionary
economics, business economics, managerial sciences, psychology and
history, the chapters consider state-of-the-art innovation theories
applied to sustainable transport, with an emphasis on approaches to
understanding behaviour. The book then explores a range of
potential transitions, covering technological innovations such as
vehicle electrification, e-bikes and light electric vehicles in
city logistics, before moving on to look at service innovations
including carsharing, mobility as a service and e-shopping.
Offering coverage of both frameworks and innovation examples
themselves, this book will be an interesting read for transport
studies and innovation scholars. It will also be a useful tool for
policy makers and planners working in the area.

This is an illustrated celebration of the pioneering development of
Formula E - the FIA-approved class of auto racing dedicated to
electric-powered cars.The Founding Partners of Formula E decided
that the event would be a platform to boost sustainable
innovations, a gateway to the cities of tomorrow and alternative
transport. After the very first Formula E season in 2014-2015, this
dream is already becoming a reality - and the best is yet to come.
Without fear or favour, Formula E is now moving forward with a
critical and (more importantly) enthusiastic approach to
encouraging and promoting development of the format. You will find
in this book examples of innovations developed at Formula E, or for
which Formula E is a fast-track to growth. The set-up of the race
is in itself an exceptional event. Here we focus on what is
happening behind the scenes. As you will see, Formula E is (much)
more than a race. Year after year, we will update this book with
new innovations and new exciting partnerships.
Advances in Urban Engineering and Management Science contains the
selected papers resulting from the 2022 3rd International
Conference on Urban Engineering and Management Science (ICUEMS
2022). Covering a wide range of topics, the Proceedings of ICUEMS
2022 presents the latest developments in: (i) Architecture and
Urban Planning (Architectural design and its theory, Urban planning
and design, Building technology science, Urban protection and
regeneration, Urban development strategy, Ecological construction
and intelligent control, Sustainable infrastructure); (ii)
Logistics and supply chain management (Warehousing and
distribution, Logistics outsourcing, Logistics automation,
Production and material flow, Supply chain management technology,
Supply chain risk management, Global service supply chain
management, Supply Chain Planning and Inventory Management,
Coordination and collaboration of supply chain networks, Governance
and regulatory aspects affecting supply chain management); (iii)
Urban traffic management (Smart grid management, Belt and Road
Development, Intelligent traffic analysis and planning management,
Big data and transportation management). The Proceedings of ICUEMS
2022 will be useful to professionals, academics, and Ph.D. students
interested in the above-mentioned fields. Emphasis was put on basic
methodologies, scientific development and engineering applications.
ICUEMS 2022 is to provide a platform for experts, scholars,
engineers and technical researchers engaged in the related fields
of urban engineering management to share scientific research
achievements and cutting-edge technologies, understand academic
development trends, broaden research ideas, strengthen academic
research and discussion, and promote the industrialization
cooperation of academic achievements. Experts, scholars, business
people and other relevant personnel from universities and research
institutions at home and abroad are cordially invited to attend and
exchange.

The relationship between the shape of transportation networks and
the optimal locations and allocations of human activities is
examined in this unique volume. Simulations are performed on
different toy-networks: several transportation networks are
designed and their effects on location-allocation results are
tested on different markets. Several optimal location models are
used. The author then attempts to discover how the modelling
results are affected by negative externalities or zone pricing
policies. Finally, these results are applied to real-world
situations, illustrating and confirming the results of the
simulations performed on toy-networks. This volume will be
considered as an interesting and original approach for
location-modellers as well as planners. Transportation Networks and
the Optimal Location of Human Activities will also appeal to
geographers, spatial economists, location-allocation practitioners
and transportation researchers.
