Beschreibung

Tunnels And Infrastructure explores the hidden world beneath our cities, examining the design, engineering, and construction of tunnels for transport and utilities. It addresses the growing need for sustainable infrastructure in expanding urban environments. Tunnels offer solutions to surface congestion, minimize environmental impact, and enhance urban resilience. The book highlights the historical evolution of tunneling and its connection to social and economic factors. For example, modern subway systems evolved from ancient aqueducts, demonstrating the enduring need for underground solutions. The book uniquely integrates technological innovation with environmental and social considerations.

 
The book begins with tunneling methods and materials, including traditional techniques and modern technologies like tunnel boring machines. It examines planning and design phases, including geological surveying and risk assessment. Case studies from around the world, both successful and unsuccessful, illustrate the factors influencing project outcomes. It progresses from transport tunnels to utility tunnels, then to the integration and future of both. Ultimately, this comprehensive approach helps readers make informed decisions about developing sustainable and resilient urban environments.

Planta Sapiens - The New Science...

Paco Calvo, Natalie Lawrence

An astonishing window into the inner world of plants, and the cutting-edge science in plant intelligence. 
 
 
 
Decades of research document plants' impressive abilities: they communicate with one another, manipulate other species, and move in sophisticated ways. Lesser known, however, is the new evidence that plants may actually be sentient. Although plants may not have brains, their microscopic commerce exposes a system not unlike the neuronal networks running through our own bodies. They can learn and remember, possessing an intelligence that allows them to behave in adaptive, flexible, anticipatory, and goal-directed ways. 
 
 
 
A leading figure in the philosophy of plant signaling and behavior, Paco Calvo offers an entirely new perspective on plant biology. In Planta Sapiens, he shows for the first time how we can use tools developed in animal cognition studies in a quest to deeply understand plant intelligence. He illuminates how plants inspire technological advancements: from robotics and AI to tackling the ecological crisis. Most importantly, he demonstrates that plants are neither objects nor resources; they are agents in themselves, and for themselves.
