Beschreibung

Insect Flight Innovations explores the aerial capabilities of insects, particularly dragonflies and bees, revealing their unique flight strategies shaped by evolutionary adaptations. The book delves into the biomechanics, aerodynamics, and neurobiology that enable these insects to perform remarkable feats in the air. 

 
One intriguing fact is how dragonflies, ancient predators, use asynchronous flight muscles and intricate wing venation for exceptional maneuverability, while bees employ a "clap and fling" mechanism for efficient hovering during pollination. 

 
This book stands out by integrating detailed morphological and physiological analyses with computational modeling, providing a comprehensive understanding of insect flight. The approach progresses from fundamental principles to specific adaptations in dragonflies and bees, supported by high-speed videography and computational fluid dynamics. 

 
The insights gained have implications for micro-aerial vehicles and materials science, offering a valuable perspective on evolutionary adaptation.

ISO 22301: 2019 - An...

Alan Calder

In an increasingly volatile world, exemplified by the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic, organisations are looking at business continuity with a fresh perspective. While most organisations believe they are prepared for disruption, COVID-19 has proved otherwise. The need for business continuity has never been clearer.
If you were hit by a cyber attack and lost the use of your IT systems, would you be able to carry on? If your business premises were forced to close, what would you do? If you were affected by unexpected staff absence, how could you reassure your customers that you can still offer them the service they expect?
Being unprepared can lead to financial and reputational damage, which could prove disastrous. You could fail to keep up with customer demand or lose important business, or your customers could go elsewhere. Without a proper risk assessment strategy, your company directors could even face prosecution if a major incident occurs and results in loss or injury.
An introduction to ISO 22301
To minimise the impact of a disaster on your business, and to continue to provide essential services to your customers, you need to put in place a BCMS (business continuity management system). This pocket guide will help you understand the basics of business continuity and ISO 22301:2019, the international standard that describes the specification for a BCMS.
It covers:

- What business continuity is;
- Key terms and definitions;
- A brief history of business continuity management;
- The BCMS;
- ISO 22301 BCMS requirements; and
- Certification
ISO 22301:2019 - An introduction to a business continuity management system (BCMS) provides an easy-to-read and straightforward introduction to a BCMS that business continuity managers, compliance managers, C-suites and disaster recovery planners – or any organisation implementing, or considering implementing, an ISO 22301 BCMS – will find valuable.

The Future of Energy

Scientific American

Since the Industrial Revolution, our civilization has depended on fossil fuels for energy—first it was coal; then petroleum. If business as usual continues, we are looking at a world where sea levels will be high enough to submerge many coastal cities and extreme weather events like 2012’s Hurricane Sandy are the new normal. In this audiobook, The Future of Energy: Earth, Wind, and Fire, we review the energy problem and analyze the options from the mundane to the far out.
