This textbook is aimed at newcomers to nonlinear dynamics and chaos, especially students taking a first course in the subject. The presentation stresses analytical methods, concrete examples, and geometric intuition. The theory is developed systematically, starting with first-order differential equations and their bifurcations, followed by phase plane analysis, limit cycles and their bifurcations, and culminating with the Lorenz equations, chaos, iterated maps, period doubling, renormalizatio...

What are you, who are you and where are you going? - the beginner's guide to modern science

Focuses on the well-known genes, developmental processes and taxa. This book builds logically from developmental genetics and regulatory mechanisms to evolution at different genetic morphological levels.

A little over a decade since its first publication, the hypotheses set out in Manuel Castells' groundbreaking trilogy have largely been verified. In a substantial new preface to the first volume in the series, Castells demonstrates, in the light of major world trends, how the network society has now fully risen on a global scale.

This engaging and clearly written textbook/reference provides a must-have introduction to the rapidly emerging interdisciplinary field of data science. It focuses on the principles fundamental to becoming a good data scientist and the key skills needed to build systems for collecting, analyzing, and interpreting data. The Data Science Design Manual is a source of practical insights that highlights what really matters in analyzing data, and provides an intuitive understanding of how these core...

Dit boek over ontwerpen in tijden van klimaatcrisis – het eindspel is een gegeven, we zitten er middenin – is het laatste project van DOWN TO EARTH, de antitypische negende editie van de Internationale Architectuur Biennale Rotterdam. In een wereld in lockdown zag hoofdcurator George Brugmans kans het traditionele biennale-model binnenstebuiten te keren en zich te concentreren op het openvouwen van het ontwerpend onderzoek in de IABR–Ateliers: verkenningen naar hoe de energietransitie e...

The construction industry is a project-based sector with a myriad of actors such as architects, construction companies, consultants, producers of building materials (Anumba et al., 2005). The interaction between the project partners is often quite limited, which leads to insufficient knowledge sharing during the project and knowledge being unavailable for reuse (Fruchter et al. 2002). The result can be a considerable amount of extra work, delays and cost overruns. Design outcomes that are sup...
