Sinopse

Self Healing Roads explores the revolutionary concept of roads that can repair themselves, focusing on smart materials and sustainable infrastructure. This technology promises to reduce road maintenance and extend pavement lifespan, addressing the escalating costs and environmental concerns associated with traditional methods. Imagine asphalt repair happening autonomously through encapsulated rejuvenators! The book dives into the science behind these self-healing mechanisms, discussing polymers and bio-based additives, and how they interact with engineering principles like crack propagation. The book uniquely combines material science, civil engineering, and economic analysis to present a holistic view of self-healing roads. It showcases how proactive approaches can not only save resources but also lessen the carbon footprint of road construction. Beginning with an overview of current infrastructure challenges, the book systematically introduces self-healing materials, explores various repair mechanisms for asphalt and concrete pavements, analyzes performance through testing and simulations, and evaluates the economic and environmental feasibility of these innovative roads.

    Demystify AI Decisions and Master Interpretability and Explainability Today
    Book Description
    Interpretability in AI/ML refers to the ability to understand and explain how a model arrives at its predictions. It ensures that humans can follow the model's reasoning, making it easier to debug, validate, and trust.
    Interpretability and Explainability in AI Using Python takes you on a structured journey through interpretability and explainability techniques for both white-box and black-box models.
    You’ll start with foundational concepts in interpretable machine learning, exploring different model types and their transparency levels. As you progress, you’ll dive into post-hoc methods, feature effect analysis, anchors, and counterfactuals—powerful tools to decode complex models. The book also covers explainability in deep learning, including Neural Networks, Transformers, and Large Language Models (LLMs), equipping you with strategies to uncover decision-making patterns in AI systems.
    Through hands-on Python examples, you’ll learn how to apply these techniques in real-world scenarios. By the end, you’ll be well-versed in choosing the right interpretability methods, implementing them efficiently, and ensuring AI models align with ethical and regulatory standards—giving you a competitive edge in the evolving AI landscape.

    At its core, quantum mechanics reveals that particles at the smallest scales do not adhere to the deterministic laws of classical physics. Instead, particles such as electrons and photons behave in ways that are probabilistic and inherently uncertain. One of the fundamental aspects of this theory is the dual nature of matter and light. The concept of wave-particle duality suggests that entities can exhibit both wave-like and particle-like characteristics depending on the experimental setup used to observe them. This duality led to groundbreaking experiments that demonstrated light interfering with itself and particles existing in multiple states simultaneously. 
    Central to quantum mechanics is the uncertainty principle, which posits that certain pairs of physical properties, like position and momentum, cannot both be precisely known at the same time. This principle does not imply a lack of precision in measurement techniques but rather indicates an intrinsic property of the quantum world. The probabilistic nature of these measurements means that we can only predict the likelihood of finding a particle in a particular state rather than determining its exact state. Such ideas were not only philosophically challenging but also required a fundamental rethinking of what it means to "know" something in the realm of physics.

    While doing fieldwork on the remote Indonesian island of Flores, anthropologist Gregory Forth came across people talking about half-apelike, half-humanlike creatures that once lived in a cave on the slopes of a nearby volcano. Over the years he continued to record what locals had to say about these mystery hominoids while searching for ways to explain them as imaginary symbols of the wild or other cultural representations. 
     
     
     
    In Between Ape and Human, we follow Forth on the trail of this mystery hominoid, and the space they occupy in islanders' culture as both natural creatures and as supernatural beings. In a narrative filled with adventure, Lio culture and language, zoology and natural history, Forth comes to a startling and controversial conclusion. 
     
     
     
    Unique, important, and thought-provoking, this book will appeal to anyone interested in human evolution, the survival of species (including our own), and how humans might relate to 'not-quite-human' animals. A must-listen for all those interested in cryptozoology, it is the only firsthand investigation by a leading anthropologist into the possible survival of a primitive species of human into recent times—and its coexistence with modern humans.

    This book consists of two titles: 
    1 - Chemical engineering is a multidisciplinary field that integrates principles from chemistry, physics, mathematics, and economics to tackle complex challenges across a diverse range of industries. At its core, chemical engineers focus on efficiently harnessing, transforming, and transporting chemicals, materials, and energy on a large scale. This involves not only designing and optimizing processes but also understanding the fundamental properties of substances and the underlying mechanisms governing their behavior. 
    One of the primary areas of focus for chemical engineers is process design and optimization. They develop innovative processes for the production of chemicals, fuels, pharmaceuticals, and materials, striving to maximize efficiency, minimize waste, and ensure safety. This often involves breaking down complex systems into manageable unit operations, such as distillation, reaction kinetics, heat transfer, and separation techniques, which are then studied and optimized individually to achieve specific goals within a larger process framework. 
    2 - Mechanical technology encompasses a broad spectrum of techniques and tools used in the design, analysis, manufacturing, and maintenance of mechanical systems. This field merges principles from physics, engineering, and materials science to create and improve machinery and devices that perform specific functions.
