Book Description

Effective teaching can be found where science and literacy overlap. This book helps teachers streamline busy schedules by focusing on cognitive skills shared by science and language arts. Designed to help build teacher confidence, it offers the background and insights teachers need to support students as they make sense of science content through language arts study. This unique approach pairs thinking routines from literacy—Observe and Wonder; Predict and Infer; Sort and Categorize; Analyze and Interpret; and Conclude and Apply—with hands-on science activities. The engaging strategies offer a fail-safe way for students to build knowledge and skills across the curriculum.

Book Description

In an era defined by rapid urbanization and the pressing need for efficient, sustainable transportation solutions, the emergence of metro rail systems stands as a testament to human ingenuity and innovation. As cities continue to expand and populations grow, the need for efficient, sustainable, and reliable modes of transportation becomes ever more pressing. Metro rail systems have emerged as a solution to the challenges posed by congestion, pollution, and limited urban space. These systems represent the culmination of decades of engineering prowess, incorporating cutting-edge technologies and forward-thinking design principles. The engineering marvel that is the metro rail system addresses these challenges head-on, revolutionizing urban mobility and reshaping the urban landscape. At the behest of the students, I tried to design this book primarily to provide clear-cut, contemporary, and stimulating text with a lot of sketches and photos of Kolkata Metro construction in a convenient form for the final-year Civil Engineering students. An attempt has been made to provide a quite modern and up-to-date coverage of the art of civil engineering which is changing by the day. This book has been divided into Five Modules, namely ‘Overview of Metro Systems’, ’Civil Engineering’,’ Mechanical and HVAC’, ‘Brief on Electronics & Communication Engineering’ and ‘Brief on Electrical Engineering’ covering 17 Chapters with questions and answers at the end of each Module in line with AICTE/ MAKAUT syllabi. Richly illustrated with diagrams, photographs, and architectural renderings, "Urban Arteries" offers a visual feast for readers interested in the intersection of engineering and urban development. I have sourced various details, specifications, and data made publicly available by Indian Metro Rail, and Kolkata Metro Rail on the web. This book is crafted to be a guiding light for aspiring civil engineering students who seek to unravel the complexities of metro railway systems. It serves as a comprehensive exploration of the principles, methodologies, and multidisciplinary facets that converge to create these marvels of modern engineering. By reorganizing and expanding upon the provided content, the book offers a comprehensive guide to metro systems and engineering, covering various aspects including planning, civil engineering, electronics, mechanical systems, and electrical systems. The content aims to provide readers with a thorough understanding of the complexities involved in designing, constructing, and operating modern metro systems in urban environments

Book Description

Demonstrating safety for the application of ever more complex technologies is a formidable task. System engineers often do not have the appropriate training, are unfamiliar with the range of safety approaches, tools and techniques, and their managers do not know when and how these may be applied and appropriately resourced. Aircraft system safety provides a basic skill set for designers, safety practitioners, and their managers by exploring the relationship between safety, legal liability and regulatory requirements. Different approaches to measuring safety are discussed, along with the appropriate safety criteria used in judging acceptability.A wealth of ideas, examples, concepts, tools and approaches from diverse sources and industries is used in Aircraft system safety to bring the theory of safety concisely together in a practical and comprehensive reference. Engineering students, designers, safety assessors (and their managers), regulatory authorities (especially military), customers and projects teams should find Aircraft system safety provides an invaluable guide in appreciating the context, value and limitations of the various safety approaches used in cost-effectively accomplishing safety objectives. - Explores the practical aspects of safety - Invaluable guide for students, designers, and safety assessors - Written by a leading expert in the field

Book Description

Given the complexity and expense of making and distributing a film, the process of filmmaking is by its very nature a political process. Moreover, given the power and persuasiveness of the cinema as a medium, film can be a powerful political tool. It should thus come as no surprise that film has had a long and extensive engagement with a variety of political topics, ranging from the actual mechanics of governance to electoral politics, to any number of specific political issues. Through a film-by-film examination of the movies explicitly concerned with American politics and American political issues, From Box Office to Ballot Box provides valuable new insights into our culture's perceptions of various political environments and serves as a witness to the cinema's own complex contribution to the media's coverage of, and relationship to, American politics at large. From Box Office to Ballot Box takes as its subject films exploring the electoral process, the process of governing, and the involvement of the media in both. Separate chapters also deal with films related to specific political issues or phenomena that are particularly relevant to the above three categories, including labor and class, the Cold War, the Vietnam War, and the other recent conflicts in which the media has played such a large role. Specific films discussed include: Citizen Kane, All the King's Men, The Manchurian Candidate, All the Presidents' Men, The Front, M*A*S*H*, JFK, Nixon, Wag the Dog, Three Kings, Black Hawk Down, The Quiet American, The Contender, and many more.
