Sinopsis

Bioinspired Insulation explores how nature's thermal regulation strategies, perfected by animals in extreme environments, can inspire innovative and sustainable insulation technologies. The book examines the unique adaptations of polar animals, desert dwellers, and high-altitude species, revealing insights into creating more efficient and eco-friendly materials. For example, the intricate structure of polar bear fur, with its remarkable heat-trapping capabilities, offers valuable lessons for designing advanced insulation.

 
This book bridges biological research and engineering, presenting a comprehensive overview of nature-inspired insulation materials like aerogels and bio-based foams. It progresses from introducing biomimicry and its applications to detailing animal insulation strategies and translating these insights into engineering principles.

 
By emphasizing the translation of complex biological systems into tangible designs, Bioinspired Insulation provides a practical guide for engineers, scientists, and designers interested in biomimicry and sustainable technologies.

    A vibrant account of how measurement has invisibly shaped our world, from ancient civilizations to the modern day. 
     
     
     
    From the cubit to the kilogram, the humble inch to the speed of light, measurement is a powerful tool that humans invented to make sense of the world. In this revelatory work of science and social history, James Vincent dives into its hidden world, taking listeners from ancient Egypt, where measuring the annual depth of the Nile was an essential task, to the intellectual origins of the metric system in the French Revolution, and from the surprisingly animated rivalry between metric and imperial, to our current age of the "quantified self." At every turn, Vincent is keenly attuned to the political consequences of measurement, exploring how it has also been used as a tool for oppression and control. 
     
     
     
    Beyond Measure reveals how measurement is not only deeply entwined with our experience of the world, but also how its history encompasses and shapes the human quest for knowledge.

    There are many types of cars, or automobiles, as some people like to call them. There are the ‘family’ types that facilitate our daily lives, and get us to work and the shops; then there are the work-horses, the vans, lorries and trucks, named after the animals that they replaced; and the dream cars... the Lamborghinis, Maseratis, Rolls-Royces and the like. However, a new class has arrived too – the hybrid  
    The conception of modern hybrid vehicles with their twin engines received a rather dubious first hearing by the automotive industry and the public. The cost was incredible, and the weight of two engines in one vehicle sounded unfeasible. We all know how that has turned out, but do you know how long mankind has actually been using hybrids? 
    It will probably surprise you to learn that hybrid vehicles were among the very first cars produced in the Nineteenth Century. However, they were not powerful, and mighty oil was looking for a niche. Oil, in the forms of petrol and diesel eventually shoved hybrids aside, and set the path for the automotive industry for 150 years. 
    As for auto accessories, it is in mankind’s nature to customise anywhere he spends a lot of time, such as the home, the workplace and, yes, even the car. We hang things from the rear view mirror, put items on the rear windscreen shelf, and add our favourite accessories to the dashboard. It has ever been thus. 
    I hope that you will find the information in this booklet helpful, useful and even profitable. It is relevant to the topics just mentioned, and organised into eighteen chapters of about five to six hundred words each. 
    I am certain that it will interest people who love cars and technology, and auto accessories. 
    As an added bonus, I am granting you permission to use the content on your own website or in your own blogs and newsletter, although you should rewrite them in your own words first.
