This self-contained comprehensive book has been written to cover almost all important topics on engineering drawing to introduce polytechnic and undergraduate students of engineering to the standards and convention of technical drawing. Initial chapters of the book cover basics of line work, engineering scales, engineering curves and dimensioning practices. In the next stage, fundamental principles of projection are discussed in detail. Subsequent chapters cover topics on orthographic projections of points, lines, planes and solids. First-angle projections have been adopted throughout the chapters covering orthographic projection. With a strong emphasis on creating accurate and clear drawings, a chapter on AutoCAD software is also included in the book. The chapter is organized such that it describes the application of the software presenting and applying these standards. More importantly, all the elaborations of the software are alone making use of screen captures taken from the AutoCAD screen so that a novice user will be able to understand its application easily. A large number of solved examples with detailed steps examining methods for solving them have been incorporated to help students solve the unsolved problems.

In writing the present book I have had in mind the following objectives: - To propose a theoretical, comprehensive view of the domain of intuition. - To identify and organize the experimental findings related to intuition scattered in a wide variety of research contexts. - To reveal the educational implications of the idea, developed for science and mathematics education. Most of the existing monographs in the field of intuition are mainly concerned with theoretical debates - definitions, philosophical attitudes, historical considerations. (See, especially the works of Wild (1938), of Bunge (1 962) and of Noddings and Shore (1 984).) A notable exception is the book by Westcott (1968), which combines theoretical analyses with the author’s own experimental studies. But, so far, no attempt has been made to identify systematically those findings, spread throughout the research literature, which could contribute to the deciphering of the mechanisms of intuition. Very often the relevant studies do not refer explicitly to intuition. Even when this term is used it occurs, usually, as a self-evident, common sense term.

Air pollution issues remain one of the most challenging problems facing society. This wide-ranging collection of high-quality works contains valuable research on issues related to the modelling, monitoring and management of air pollution. The papers included in this book develop the fundamental science of air pollution. Scientific knowledge derived from well-designed studies needs to be allied with further technical and economic studies in order to ensure cost-effective and efficient mitigation. Increasingly, it is being recognised that the outcome of such research needs to be contextualised within well-formulated communication strategies that help policymakers and citizens to understand and appreciate the risks and rewards arising from air pollution management. Details of the widespread nature of the air pollution phenomena and in-depth explorations of their impacts on human health and the environment are covered in this book.

Truly unique, this is the first book to present a thoroughly scientific and practical approach to designing highways for maximum safety. Based on original research plus scrupulously collected data amassed over more two decades in different continents by the main author, this important book originates vital criteria for safe design and shows you how best to achieve roads with the lowest possible accident risk and severity rates. A true must-read for highway engineers and safety officials, Highway Design and Traffic Safety Engineering Handbook provides up-to-date information that is available nowhere else and a complete, practical program for designing the safest possible roadways. The authors, who are noted international authorities on highway safety, give you essential information on sound new designs, design cases to avoid, examples of good and poor solutions, the redesign of existing roads, and far more. In addition, this valuable and necessary resource gives you serious help coordinating safety concerns with important economic, environmental, and aesthetic considerations. The new standard in highway design methods, this book will become a keystone in every highway designer's library.
