Sinopse

"Floating Building Physics" explores the burgeoning field of floating architecture, addressing the urgent need for resilient coastal development in the face of rising sea levels. It examines the fundamental physics governing these innovative structures, focusing on buoyancy—the principle that allows objects to float—and hydrodynamic stability, which ensures structures can withstand wave and current forces. The book uniquely bridges architectural theory with practical engineering, offering insights into how advanced materials and maritime engineering techniques are used to create habitable floating environments. The central argument emphasizes that a solid grasp of hydrodynamic principles is essential for successful floating and amphibious design, making it a vital resource for architects, engineers, and urban planners.

 
The book begins with the basics of buoyancy and stability, progressing to detailed analyses of various floating foundation types, such as concrete pontoons and steel structures. A key aspect of the book is its focus on wave-structure interaction, demonstrating how hydrodynamic research is applied to analyze floating building behavior under different environmental conditions. Case studies of existing floating buildings are presented, highlighting the practical implications of floating architecture for addressing climate change and urbanization. This science-based approach offers a balanced perspective on the challenges and opportunities associated with sustainable floating development.

    'You don’t have to be able to hum Mozart to find this book utterly engrossing . . . I couldn’t put it down' - Joanna LumleyAn expertly researched and vividly written account of Mozart’s formative trips to Italy. At thirteen years old Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart was a child prodigy who had captured the hearts of northern Europe, but his father Leopold was now determined to conquer Italy. Together, they made three visits there the last when Mozart was seventeen, all vividly recounted here by acclaimed conductor Jane Glover.Father and son travelled from the theatres and concert salons of Milan to the church-filled streets of Rome to Naples, poorer and more dangerous than the prosperous north, and to Venice, the carnivalesque birthplace of public opera. All the while Mozart was absorbing Italian culture, language, style and art, and honed his craft. He met the challenge of writing Italian opera for Italian singers and audiences and provoked a variety of responses, from triumph and admiration to intrigue and hostility: in a way, these Italian years can be seen as a microcosm of his whole life.Evocative, beautifully written and with a profound understanding of eighteenth-century classical music, Mozart in Italy reveals how what he experienced during these Italian journeys changed Mozart – and his music – for ever.

    Whether you called it electro, indie dance, or were too busy scouring the internet for MP3s to care about a genre name, Never Be Alone Again: How Bloghouse United the Internet and the Dancefloor connects the disparate parts of an under-documented era in the first book focused on the musical and cultural phenomenon called bloghouse. 
     
     
     
    For a brief period in the mid-2000s, a network of independent music bloggers and fans merged the digital and physical worlds in a never-before-seen way. Their punk-inspired DIY ethos elevated noname DJs, music producers, and parties to a level of international success that was quickly eclipsed by corporatized EDM and the music festival boom. But before that, for a moment, there was bloghouse. 
     
     
     
    Never Be Alone Again: How Bloghouse United the Internet and the Dancefloor chronicles the rise of the DJ-slash-It Girl, roaming party photography, illegal Mp3 file sharing, canonical scene reports of bloghouse capitals Los Angeles and Paris, the overlooked impact of suburban Latino communities on nightlife, Kanye West's contribution to the movement, and the slow death of the blog itself.
