Research Studies on Flammability of Technical Fabrics

The flammability of a substance is a measure of its ability to burn. It would be convenient if all substances could be categorized as either flammable or non-flammable but, unfortunately, a significant proportion of substances fall into the category of burning under certain conditions. By burning, one generally means self sustained combustion. Thus, the heat generated when a substance...

It would be convenient if all substances could be categorized as either flammable or non-flammable but, unfortunately, a significant proportion of substances fall into the category of burning under certain conditions. By burning, one generally means self sustained combustion. Thus, the heat generated when a substance is oxidized must be sufficient to overcome any heat losses and heat up fresh fuel to its ignition temperature. The ability of a substance to do this will depend upon its condition, geometry, and environment. For example, flammability is normally considered with reference to burning in fresh air, but many substances which are not normally flammable will burn easily in an environment of pure oxygen. The Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is the governmental agency that administers the laws and standards that apply to fabric flammability.

The content of this book comes as a whiff of fresh air and provides an insight into digitization technique in ultrasonic instrumentation, implemented in a pulse-echo technique, generating ultrasonic waves in the range 1 to 10 MHz. An in-house designed digitizer module, using a low cost and slower analog-to-digital converter is found to be effective in acquisition of signals using synchronous digital delay under software control, developed in C at the back-end. Displaying results using suitable control panel has been developed in Visual Basic. The presented work articulates novel digitization technique in the design of cost effective digitization of signals in the measurement of ultrasonic attenuation and velocity of propagation in liquids. The authors expect this work will inspire and motivate young researchers, students and professionals who intend to pursue digital signal processing in their research.","merchants_number":1,"ean":9783845434162,"category_id":103,"size":null,"min_price":60.60000000000000142108547152020037174224853515625,"low_price_merchant_id":1087639,"ID":4301609,"merchants":["dodax"],"brand":"undefined","slug":"signal-processing-for-high-frequency-characterisation-of-liquids","url":"\/unterhaltung\/produkt\/signal-processing-for-high-frequency-characterisation-of-liquids\/","low_price_merchant_name":null}

My Brilliant Friend took my breath away. If I were president of the world I would make everyone read this book. It is so honest and right and opens up heart to so much. Reading Ferrante reminded me of that child-like excitement when you can't look up from the page, when your eyes seem to be popping from your head, when you think: I didn't know books could do this!\"-Elizabeth Strout, author of Olive Kitteridge\"I like the Italian writer, Elena Ferrante, a lot. I've been reading all her work and all about her.\" - John Waters, actor and director\"Elena Ferrante may be the best contemporary novelist you've never heard of.\"-The Economist\"Ferrante's freshness has nothing to do with fashion...it is imbued with the most haunting music of all, the echoes of literary history.\"-The New York Times Book Review\"I am such a fan of Ferrante's work, and have been for quite a while.\"-Jennifer Gilmore, author of The Mothers\"The women's fraught relationship and shifting fortunes are the life forces of the poignant book\" - Publisher's Weekly\"When I read [the Neapolitan novels] I find that I never want to stop. I feel vexed by the obstacles-my job, or acquaintances on the subway-that threaten to keep me apart from the books. I mourn separations (a year until the next one-how?). I am propelled by a ravenous will to keep going.\"-Molly Fischer, The New Yorker\"[Ferrante's Neapolitan Novels] don't merely offer a teeming vision of working-class Naples, with its cobblers and professors, communists and mobbed-up businessmen, womanizing poets and downtrodden wives, they present one of modern fiction's richest portraits of a friendship.\"-John Powers, Fresh Air, NPR\"Elena Ferrante is one of the great novelists of our time. Her voice is passionate, her view sweeping and her gaze basilisk . . . In these bold, gorgeous, relentless novels, Ferrante traces the deep connections between the political and the domestic. This is a new version of the way we live now - one we need, one told brilliantly, by a woman.\"-Roxana Robinson, The New York Times Book Review\"An intoxicatingly furious portrait of enmeshed friends Lila and Elena, Bright and passionate girls from a raucous neighborhood in world-class Naples. Ferrante writes with such aggression and unnerving psychological insight about the messy complexity of female friendship that the real world can drop away when you're reading her.\"-Entertainment Weekly\"It's just hypnotic. I could not stop reading it or thinking about it.\"-Hillary Clinton\"Ferrante seasons the prose with provocative perceptions not unlike the way Proust did.\"-Shelf Awareness\"It would be difficult to find a deeper portrait of women's friendship than the one in Ferrante's Neapolitan novels, which unfold from the fifties to the twenty-first century to tell a single story withthe possessive force of an origin myth.\"-Megan O'Grady, Vogue\"Ferrante's writing is so unencumbered, so natural, and yet so lovely, brazen, and flush. The constancy of detail and the pacing that zips and skips then slows to a real-time crawl have an almost psychic effect, bringing you deeply into synchronicity with the discomforts and urgency of the characters' emotions. Ferrante is unlike other writers-not because she's innovative, but rather because she's unselfconscious and brutally, diligently honest.\"-Minna Proctor, Bookforum\"Ferrante can do a woman's interior dialogue like no one else, with a ferocity that is shockingly honest, unnervingly blunt.\"-Booklist\"The truest evocation of a complex and lifelong friendship bet","merchants_number":1,"ean":9781609450786,"category_id":103,"size":null,"min_price":23.89999999999999857891452847979962825775146484375,"low_price_merchant_id":70255345,"ID":4418411,"merchants":["euniverse"],"brand":"undefined","slug":"my-brilliant-friend","url":"\/unterhaltung\/produkt\/my-brilliant-friend\/","low_price_merchant_name":"eUniverse"}
