In this sequel to his much-acclaimed first book, Once Aboard A
Cornish Lugger, Paul Greenwood draws on his own experiences in the
1970s and 1980s to graphically bring to life the hardships and
dangers faced by Cornish fishermen. More Tales From A Cornish
Lugger tells of gales, whales, wrecks and rigours of life aboard
the fishing luggers that worked off the south coast of Cornwall.
A 'Biddulph-like' witty and spaciously-designed survival guide
which is both practical and celebratory. Written by two generations
of one family with illuminating case studies, tips and practical
ideas - as well as a sensitive look at emotional issues - this
lightly humorous book has a user-friendly, lively design and
hilarious cartoons. There are also practical line illustrations to
accompany step-by-step essential procedures from happy changing and
preparing baby milks. The guide is a good introduction to
grandparents who want to be up-to-date with the modern style of
parenting and new technological innovations. Covers everything from
nappies to car seats, methods of discipline, sleep, feeding. It
also offers advice on how to offer the best kind of support and
advice without the parents of a new baby feeling crowded or
criticised. Includes full coverage of the grandfather's experience
as well.
Former Cornish fisherman Paul Greenwood vividly describes life as a
young crewman aboard the Looe lugger Iris in the 1960s. His frank
account of the hardships he encountered at sea in "Once Aboard a
Cornish Lugger", overcoming sea-sickness, fatigue, cold and wet
while working by day and night hauling nets and lines is a
brilliant evocation of a bygone age that contrasts with modern
conditions in the fishing industry. This illustrated account pays
tribute to the crewmen he left behind.
Electrochemical Phenomena in the Cathode Impedance Spectrum of PEM
Fuel Cells: Fundamentals, Modelling, and Applications establishes
how the electrochemical and diffusion mechanisms of a polymer
electrolyte membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) are related to
electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) measurements using
physics-based impedance models derived from fundamental electrode
and diffusion theories. The contribution of the different phenomena
occurring at the different layers comprising the cathode on the
impedance response of the PEMFC is revealed through EIS-modelling
analysis. The relation between EIS measurements and polarisation
curves representing the performance of PEMFCs is established.
Insight is gained into how the EIS response of the PEMFC changes at
different operating conditions e.g. relative humidity, load demand,
gas reactant stoichiometry and temperature using physics-based
impedance models. The application of impedance models with EIS
measurements carried out in the individual cells comprising a PEMFC
stack is demonstrated, while recent modelling approaches and other
impedance models reported in the literature to represent the EIS
response of the PEMFC are also considered and discussed.
