Control of Solar Energy Systems details the main solar energy
systems, problems involved with their control, and how control
systems can help in increasing their efficiency. Thermal energy
systems are explored in depth, as are photovoltaic generation and
other solar energy applications such as solar furnaces and solar
refrigeration systems. This second and updated edition of Advanced
Control of Solar Plants includes new material on: solar towers and
solar tracking; heliostat calibration, characterization and offset
correction; solar radiation, estimation, prediction, and
computation; and integrated control of solar plants. This new
edition contains worked examples in the text as well as proposed
exercises and simulation models and so will be of great use to the
student and academic, as well as the industrial practitioner.

Pia Marais' semi-autobiographical debut feature recounts the
adolescence of Stevie (Ceci Schmitz-Chuh), a resourceful
14-year-old girl who finds methods of her own to cope with the
unstable upbringing afforded her by her hippy parents. When the
family moves to a small town in Germany, Stevie attempts to forge a
normal life for herself. While her parents spend their days dealing
drugs, getting high and filling the house with aimless hangers-on,
Stevie does her best to make an impression on her new classmates,
weaving her own narrative of an imaginary homelife that is stable,
comfortable and conventional.
The Storyteller, a man who has hailed from a mysterious plane of
existence by the name of Earth has decided to finally tell the
stories surrounding it to the young and impressionable children of
Bathum. Despite how young and frail he looks, the children have
grown to respect their protector and entertainer, but it's only a
matter of time before he has to leave, and the Storyteller knows
that. His collection of short stories span multiple different times
and places throughout Earth, maybe even above the world itself, but
they all carry that need for strength that he's trying to get
through to the children. If he's not there to protect them, then
they must protect themselves.
The 69 Club se ha convertido en un refugio para los londinenses en
la situacion tan delicada por la que atraviesa la ciudad. Una
oleada criminal ha surgido de la nada y tiene en jaque a todas las
fuerzas de seguridad. Cualquier esfuerzo en la busqueda de un
patron para relacionar a los criminales parece inutil. John
Ferdinand es el unico detective de todo Scotland Yard que cree en
la existencia de un genio maligno capaz de elaborar semejante plan
maestro. Junto a su incansable companero Richard West, no cesara en
su empeno por encontrarle. Paralelamente, Jack Hill, huerfano a una
temprana edad, y su hermano adoptivo Edward Hill, millonario de
nacimiento y dueno del club, trataran de resolver el misterio y
salvar la ciudad. Sus vidas estan a punto de cambiar. "Londres
Rojo" sumerge al lector en un intrigante enigma del que no podra
escapar mientras expone su vision acerca de temas como el bien y el
mal, la religion o el papel de la etica y la moral a la hora de
alcanzar un objetivo.
Este trabajo se centra en el modelado y fabricacion de celulas
fotovoltaicas en un semiconductor III-V de ancho de banda prohibida
reducido, el Antimoniuro de Galio (GaSb), para su uso en sistemas
de conversion fotovoltaica de radiacion termica en energia
electrica, mas conocidos como sistemas termofotovoltaicos. La
Introduccion del documento describe los fundamentos basicos y
aplicaciones mas comunes de las tecnicas termofotovoltaicas. Tras
ello, en la Primera Parte se aborda el modelado, simulacion y
optimizacion de los dispositivos de GaSb. La Segunda Parte se
dedica a detallar la tecnologia de fabricacion de los mismos,
basada en difusiones de Zn en fase vapor sobre obleas de n-GaSb. En
la Tercera Parte se aplica dicha tecnologia y se presentan las
celulas fabricadas y sus caracteristicas electricas y opticas.
Ademas, se realiza una comparacion de los resultados experimentales
obtenidos y las predicciones de los modelos desarrollados, con la
intencion de corroborar la validez de los mismos. Por ultimo, en la
Cuarta Parte se disenan y fabrican varios prototipos de sistemas
termofotovoltaicos, para su aplicacion en el autoabastecimiento
electrico de electrodomesticos a gas."

La importancia del contrato de seguro se encuentra en su relacion
al riesgo, es decir, a la exposicion en que se encuentra una
persona o un patrimonio de que se le cause un dano por la
ocurrencia de un evento o siniestro y la posibilidad que existe de
poder transferir dicho riesgo a un tercero. El seguro fomenta la
iniciativa privada, estimula la prevencion de riesgos y permite un
desarrollo general de la economia, lo que resulta en la creacion de
empleos, frena la inflacion que pudiera generar un siniestro, entre
otros beneficios mas. Por ello es que la reticencia y agravacion
del riesgo ya no solo perjudican el patrimonio del sector
asegurador, sino que trasciende a la economia de un pais. Estos
intereses deben ser adecuadamente protegidos en aras de una mayor
seguridad juridica y social."
Los modelos de simulacion en computadora aplicados a las ciencias
sociales, no son aun la opcion metodologica mayoritaria entre
antropologos y arqueologos. Sin embargo debido al auge de la
computadora personal, que permite a cualquiera con minimas
habilidades informaticas ejecutar una serie de procedimientos
impensables hace 20 anos, los modelos de simulacion comienzan a
aparecer entre las opciones metodologicas. Este libro presenta
primero a los modelos en su ubicacion epistemologica y filosofica.
Luego los describe en sus aspectos formales y en sus aportes
metodologicos. Por ultimo ilustra con un modelo de simulacion
demografico de una poblacion de camelidos sudamericanos, sometidos
a restricciones en su crecimiento, tanto de origen natural como
cultural. Esta simulacion permite observar escenarios plausibles de
crecimiento demografico y de manejo pastoril de los camelidos
sudamericanos, asi como poner a prueba hipotesis acerca de los
procesos de domesticacion de los animales."
