Synopsis

Skyscraper Wind Design examines the critical interplay between wind and tall buildings, offering insights for creating resilient high-rise structures. It highlights how early skyscrapers faced wind-related challenges, leading to retrofits and failures, while modern design employs wind tunnel testing and computational modeling for proactive solutions. The book stresses the importance of integrating architectural aesthetics with structural engineering to create safe, sustainable, and economically viable skyscrapers.

 
The book progresses from fundamental aerodynamic principles to design strategies like aerodynamic shaping and damping systems. Emphasizing a holistic approach, it uniquely combines quantitative data from wind tunnel tests with qualitative design principles. For example, the orientation and spacing of buildings in urban planning significantly impacts wind patterns.

 
The book analyzes wind tunnel testing, compares structural systems under wind loads, and studies iconic skyscrapers. It is a resource for architects and engineers, promoting innovation and resilience in the built environment by addressing ongoing debates, such as the balance between structural stiffness and flexibility.

Go Break Bad - An In-depth...

Howard Jackson

This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.
The TV show 'Breaking Bad' is not just habit forming but dangerous. Walter White was killed, and Jesse Pinkman has had to rebuild a new and perhaps innocent life in Alaska. But, without taking crystal meth or contravening the law, fans of the hit TV show now at least have an excuse or another reason to 'go break bad.' And those who are not fans? Well, you have to start somewhere, especially if you have a curious nature. 'Breaking Bad' was more than a hit TV show. Walter White and his adventures deserve to be remembered.
'Go Break Bad' avoids the format of the other books written about the TV hit 'Breaking Bad'. Rather than work through the shows chronologically and offer thematic analysis for each episode, 'Go Break Bad', like Combo and Skinny Pete on the streets in ABQ, searches for the street corners. It lingers in places where it is not expected.
'Go Break Bad' is driven by different and at times what might appear to be unrelated topics. Main men like Franz Kafka, William Shakespeare, Samuel Beckett and Herman Melville make an appearance but within 'Go Break Bad' there is plenty of room for the unexpected. The odd but illuminating connections include motor transport, economic theory, nuclear weaponry, education, the work ethic, left wing politics, the family, Hollywood cinema and more. 'Go Break Bad' can be read using natural daylight or at night on the roadside and under the glow from a streetlamp. Whichever way you read 'Go Break Bad' worry about what might be on the road ahead.
