Technische Mechanik 3 - Dynamik

by Andreas Huber

Der dritte Band dieser Buchreihe beschäftigt sich mit der Dynamik, nachdem in den ersten beiden Bänden die Strukturmechanik behandelt wurde. Zunächst beschäftigt man sich mit den grundlegenden Bewegungsformen (Kinematik) bis man im Anschluss auf die Bewegungsursache und Kräfte (Kinetik) eingeht. Im Anschluss wird die Allgemeine Schwingungslehre behandelt, wodurch die Dynamik auf Grundlage der Technischen Mechanik abgeschlossen wäre. Dieses Buch zeichnet jedoch aus, dass auch noch auf die Grundlagen der Getriebelehre und Maschinendynamik sowie der Robotik eingegangen wird, denn auch diesen Kapiteln sind im Maschinenbau eng mit der Dynamik verbunden und erweitern die Dynamik um wichtige Gleichungen. Im letzten Abschnitt geht man spezifisch auf die FEM-Berechnung (nicht lineare- und lineare Dynamik) ein. Im Kapitel der Dynamik wird einem wieder speziell vor Augen geführt, dass man ohne die theoretischen Grundlagen keine Chance auf eine sinnvolle FEM-Berechnung hat, speziell wenn es um den Unterschied von Schwingungsanalysen: Frequenz-, Harmonische-, Modal- und transiente Analyse geht. Da in der Industrie diese FEM - Berechnungen unumgänglich verwendet werden müssen, werden zahlreiche Beispiele mittels SolidWorks (FEM und Motion) gelöst. Speziell geht man hier auf die Bewegungsanalyse in SolidWorks Motion und auf die dynamische FEM Berechnung (linear- und nicht linear) ein.

Techno-Fix: Why Technology Won't Save Us or the Environment

by Michael Huesemann Joyce Huesemann

Nanotechnology! Genetic engineering! Miracle Drugs! We are promised that new technological developments will magically save us from the dire consequences of the 300-year fossil-fueled binge known as modern industrial civilization, without demanding any fundamental changes in our behavior. There is a pervasive belief that technological innovation will enable us to continue our current lifestyle indefinitely and will prevent social, economic and environmental collapse. Techno-Fix shows that negative unintended consequences of technology are inherently predictable and unavoidable, techno-optimism is completely unjustified, and modern technology, in the presence of continued economic growth, does not promote sustainability, but hastens collapse. The authors demonstrate that most technological solutions to social and technology-created problems are ineffective. They explore the reasons for the uncritical acceptance of new technologies, show who really controls the direction of technological change, and then advocate extensive reform.This comprehensive exposé is a powerful argument for why we can and should put the genie back in the bottle. An insightful and powerful critique, it is required reading for anyone who is concerned about blind techno-optimism and believes that the time has come to make science and technology more socially and environmentally responsible.For more information, please visit technofix.org .

Technocrats and the Politics of Drought and Development in Twentieth-Century Brazil

by Eve E. Buckley

Eve E. Buckley's study of twentieth-century Brazil examines the nation's hard social realities through the history of science, focusing on the use of technology and engineering as vexed instruments of reform and economic development. Nowhere was the tension between technocratic optimism and entrenched inequality more evident than in the drought-ridden Northeast sertao, plagued by chronic poverty, recurrent famine, and mass migrations. Buckley reveals how the physicians, engineers, agronomists, and mid-level technocrats working for federal agencies to combat drought were pressured by politicians to seek out a technological magic bullet that would both end poverty and obviate the need for land redistribution to redress long-standing injustices. Scientists planned and oversaw huge projects including dam construction, irrigation for small farmers, and public health initiatives. They were, Buckley shows, sincerely determined to solve the drought crisis and improve the lot of poor people in the sertao. Over time, however, they came to the frustrating realization that, despite technology's tantalizing promise of an apolitical means to end poverty, political collisions among competing stakeholders were inevitable. Buckley's revelations about technocratic hubris, the unexpected consequences of environmental engineering, and constraints on scientists as agents of social change resonate with today's hopes that science and technology can solve society's most pressing dilemmas, including climate change.

Technofutures, Nature and the Sacred: Transdisciplinary Perspectives

by Celia Deane-Drummond Sigurd Bergmann Bronislaw Szerszynski

The capacity of human beings to invent, construct and use technical artifacts is a hugely consequential factor in the evolution of society, and in the entangled relations between humans, other creatures and their natural environments. Moving from a critical consideration of theories, to narratives about technology, and then to particular and specific practices, Technofutures, Nature and the Sacred seeks to arrive at a genuinely transdisciplinary perspective focusing attention on the intersection between technology, religion and society and using insights from the environmental humanities. It works from both theoretical and practical contexts by using newly emerging case studies, including geo-engineering and soil carbon technologies, and breaks open new ground by engaging theological, scientific, philosophical and cultural aspects of the technology/religion/nature nexus. Encouraging us to reflect on the significance and place of religious beliefs in dealing with new technologies, and engaging critical theory common in sociological, political and literary discourses, the authors explore the implicit religious claims embedded in technology.

Technological Challenges in Antibiotic Discovery and Development

by National Research Council Chemical Sciences Roundtable Division On Earth Life Studies Joe Alper Board on Chemical Sciences Technology Douglas Friedman

Technological Challenges in Antibiotic Discovery and Development is the summary of a workshop convened by the Chemical Sciences Roundtable in September 2013 to explore the current state of antibiotic discovery and examine the technology available to facilitate development. Through formal presentations and panel discussions, participants from academia, industry, federal research agencies discussed the technical challenges present and the incentives and disincentives industry faces in antibiotic development, and identified novel approaches to antibiotic discovery. Antibiotic resistance is a serious and growing problem in modern medicine and it is emerging as a pre-eminent public health threat. Each year in the United States alone, at least two million acquire serious infections with bacteria that are resistant to one or more antibiotics, and at least 23,000 people die annually as a direct result of these antibiotic-resistant infections. In addition to the toll on human life, antibiotic-resistant infections add considerable and avoidable costs to the already overburdened U.S. health care system. This report explores the challenges in overcoming antibiotic resistance, screening for new antibiotics, and delivering them to the sites of infection in the body. The report also discusses a path forward to develop the next generation of potent antimicrobial compounds capable of once again tilting the battle against microbial pathogens in favor of humans. Technological Challenges in Antibiotic Discovery and Development gives a broad view of the landscape of antibiotic development and the technological challenges and barriers to be overcome.
