We remember still a single farm with chickens and pigs on the farm and cows in the pasture. Increasingly we see grain silos appear with consumption animal farms, whose pigs, chickens or cows never outside come. Diseases, which can be transmitted from animals to humans, are the result. The expansion in the intensive livestock and tropical bird breeding threatens the health of us all. It is of great importance that the air we breathe indoors in private homes, public transport, public buildings ...

This book

- is aimed at mechanical engineering students who already have experience in calculating stresses analytically.

- teaches students how to interpret stress-results in FEM-analyses.

- teaches students the difference between solid, shell and beam-elements.

- is written independent of FEM-software, therefore any FEM- software can be used in combination with this book.

MINOAN LINEAR A, VOLUME I: HURRIANS AND HURRIAN IN MINOAN CRETE, PART 2: The author identified the idiom written with Linear A as a language of agglutinative character. The Hurrian language appeared to be the best candidate from a linguistic and historical point of view. The predominantly Hurrian kingdom of Mitanni, with its vassal states in Syria such as Alalakh and Aleppo (Khalba in Hurrian, Khalab in Semitic), was the only great political and military power next to Egypt, contemporary with...

The one event in our history that has been least understood, is the coming of Jesus Christ to our world, to transfer humanity and our planet into a grand new reality.

What he has done is clear and simple. Yet it is so far beyond our limited imagination, that its significance has escaped the entirety of the human population, including Christian religion. The small number of individuals, and sometimes small groups, that really understood, was so free of this world and its trouble, that they hav...

Nikola Tesla has been one of the greatest scientists who has ever lived. His inventions still are amazing the world by his creativity and his unique way of thinking. One of his most powerful and unique ideas has been the concept of the possibility to transport massive amounts of energy through the air without any wires and finally (almost) realized before his death by his famous “Wardenclyffe Tower”.

Till now the “Wardenclyffe Tower” has not been very successful. Because at his time N...

The one who falls and rises again is so much stronger than the one who never fell.

Infinitus Intellectus - The Workbook.

The human, the technical system, and the environment are the three elements for safety or three axes for the safety coordinate system. They have three mutual interactions. These form the six fundamental aspects for safety assessment system, represented by the Safety Cube. The Safety Cube is a theory, a method, and a game-changer for engineering safer products and systems.

Bishop John Charles Ryle (1816-1900) was a prolific writer, faithful pastor and preacher. His classic “Expository Thoughts on the Gospels” are among the finest expository writings ever written on the Gospels. They are a combination of doctrinal and practical comments on the text and are written in simple, plain English.
