Analytical solutions to the orbital motion of celestial objects
have been nowadays mostly replaced by numerical solutions, but they
are still irreplaceable whenever speed is to be preferred to
accuracy, or to simplify a dynamical model. In this book, the most
common orbital perturbations problems are discussed according to
the Lie transforms method, which is the de facto standard in
analytical orbital motion calculations.
Participatory Modelling for Resilient Futures: Action for Managing
Our Environment from the Bottom-Up, Volume One provides an
important contribution to environmental management by introducing
an integrative framework for participatory research for better land
use and natural resource planning, organized around compelling
recent case studies. It is a valuable guide for the increasing
number of students looking for solutions in sustainability science
and also practitioners who are on the ground working with local
communities to improve specific places. The book was developed in
response to the need to provide a clear and synthetic account, in
accessible and non-technical language, of the way in which
innovative integrative research can help solve real world
human-environment interaction problems at a range of levels and
scales, e.g., participatory modelling to secure a sustainable
future for a natural protected area, working with stakeholders to
break the deadlock on renewable energy implementation in Europe or
tackling social exclusion and reducing food carbon footprint
through local agroecology schemes.
