Beschreibung

Underground Cargo Transport examines subterranean networks as a solution to increasing urban congestion and environmental concerns. It addresses the architectural, technological, and design considerations for implementing underground logistics systems, highlighting their potential to revolutionize urban freight distribution. These systems are vital considering escalating demands on urban infrastructure and the need for sustainable transport options. The book emphasizes integrating such systems with surface transportation networks and considers their architectural impact on the urban environment.

The book explores the historical context of underground infrastructure and delves into essential geological principles, tunnel boring methods, and traffic flow analysis. It presents case studies of existing and proposed underground freight systems worldwide, analyzing their successes and challenges. Did you know that strategically designed underground transport networks could substantially contribute to sustainable and efficient urban freight distribution?

The book progresses from fundamental concepts of underground logistics to discussions of geological surveys, case studies, and integration with surface networks, culminating in an analysis of economic, social, and environmental benefits. This book uniquely adopts a holistic approach by considering the technical, economic, social, and environmental implications of underground cargo transport. It is professionally written and informative, making complex details accessible to urban planners, engineers, architects, policymakers, and students alike.

Memoirs of a White Elephant

Judith Gautier

We are told by writers of antiquity that elephants have written sentences in Greek, and that one of them was even known to speak. There is, therefore, nothing unreasonable in the supposition that the White Elephant of this history, the famous Iravata" so celebrated throughout Asia, should have written his own memoirs.The story of his long existence—at times so glorious, and at other times so full of misfortune—in the kingdom of Siam, and the India of the Maharajahs and the English, is full of most curious and interesting adventure.After being almost worshipped as an idol, Iravata becomes a warrior; he is made prisoner with his master, whose life he saves, and whom he assists to escape.Later he is deemed worthy to be the guardian and companion of the lovely little Princess Parvati, for whose amusement he invents wonderful games, and to whom he renders a loving service.We see how a wicked sentiment having crept into the heart of the faithful Elephant, usually so wise and good, he is separated for a long time from his beloved Princess, and meets with painful and trying experiences.But at last he once more finds his devoted friend the Princess, and her forgiveness restores him to happiness." - Summary by the author's foreword

Machine learning - A subset of...

Bright Mills

Machine Learning (ML) is a subset of Artificial Intelligence that empowers systems to learn from data and make decisions or predictions without being explicitly programmed. It represents a major shift from traditional rule-based programming to systems that adapt and improve over time. This comprehensive guide delves into the theoretical foundations, types, algorithms, tools, applications, challenges, and the future of Machine Learning. It covers supervised, unsupervised, semi-supervised, and reinforcement learning in detail, explains key techniques such as neural networks, decision trees, support vector machines, and deep learning, and explores real-world applications across domains like healthcare, finance, security, and robotics. Ethical concerns, bias in AI, explainability, and interpretability are also discussed, offering a well-rounded understanding of the state and direction of Machine Learning.
