Abstract

CROguide est un concept qui allie à la fois guide d'architecture et carnet de croquis. Par une série d'intercalaires vierges, il invite le voyageur à compléter sur place les informations contenues dans l'ouvrage par des annotations personnelles, transcrites sous forme de croquis, de dessins, de relevés ou de notes. CROguide se veut ainsi un guide d'architecture participatif et interactif, un guide qui met "l'oeil dans la main".

Abstract

This manual describes the computer program CONTAM version 3.2, developed by NIST. CONTAM is a multizone indoor air quality and ventilation analysis program designed to help determine airflows, contaminant concentrations, and personal exposure in buildings. Airflows include infiltration, exfiltration, and room-to-room airflow rates and pressure differences in building systems, and can be driven by mechanical means, wind pressures acting on the exterior of the building, and buoyancy effects induced by temperature differences between zones, including the outdoors. Contaminant concentrations include the transport and fate of airborne contaminants, due to airflow, chemical and radio-chemical transformation, adsorption and desorption to building materials, filtration, and deposition to and resuspension from building surfaces. Personal exposure includes the exposure of building occupants to airborne contaminants, for eventual risk assessment.

Abstract

Ce travail analyse la perception que les enfants ont de l’architecture avec l’objectif de créer un guide d’architecture pour des enfants de 10 à 14 ans. Le travail commence par une analyse de la vision de l’enfant, de la ville et de l’architecture: ses connaissances s’avèrent limitées à ses lieux de vie (l’école, la maison, le parc). Divers guides pour enfants (sur un musée, la ville ou des monuments) sont analysés afin d’en retenir les principales qualités. Ensuite, suit un travail de recherche sur les styles et les bâtiments choisis. Les informations sont triées de manière à ne conserver que celles susceptibles d’intéresser les enfants : ce qu’il voit en façade et ce qu’il pourrait facilement reconnaître. Après ces études préliminaires, toutes les informations nécessaires à la création du guide sont rassemblées. L’élaboration du guide s’est faite grâce à la collaboration d’enfants. Ceux-ci ont été régulièrement sollicités afin de tester le guide et d’en repérer les qualités et les défauts. À ses débuts, chaque bâtiment était expliqué sur une page, mais il était plus question d’histoire que d’architecture. Il a donc été décidé de ne pas expliquer les bâtiments mais les styles de l’architecture en prenant les bâtiments comme support d’explication. Pour que la vision d’un style ne soit pas limitée à un unique bâtiment, un deuxième bâtiment a été ajouté pour chaque style. Le guide parcourt ces styles en s’appuyant sur des exemples bruxellois. Pour chaque style, l’enfant est invité à comparer des bâtiments d’échelles différentes, l’un à l’échelle du monument et l’autre de la maison. A chaque page, l’enfant peut faire travailler son imagination et tester ses acquis grâce à une petite activité. Le guide se termine par un jeu où ’enfant est invité à tester ses connaissances générales. Le guide a été expérimenté auprès d’enfants chez eux, auprès de groupes lors de balades dans Bruxelles ainsi que lors d’une activité scolaire en classe.

Abstract

Come, Let Me Guide You explores the intimate communication between author Susan Krieger and her guide dog Teela over the ten-year span of their working life together. This is a book about being led by a dog to new places in the world and new places in the self, a book about facing life's challenges outwardly and within, and about reading those clues-those deeply felt signals-that can help guide the way. It is also, more broadly, about the importance of intimate connection in human-animal relationships, academic work, and personal life.In her previous book, Traveling Blind: Adventures in Vision

Abstract

This small architectural guide provides a representative overview of the built environment in the north Indian metropolis of Ahmedabad. In addition to covering the citys notable legacy of modernist architecture, the work also treats diverse forms of informal urban arrangements: from architecture without architects (to borrow from Bernard Rudofsky) to ephemeral structures sprouting up on streets and plazas, everything is fair game. Clear axonometric drawings and short texts providing cultural and historical context make this idiosyncratic travel guide an accessible introduction to decoding Indian urbanism for the architect and layperson alike.

Abstract

About the publication This book examines the Malawian Personal Property Security Act (PPSA) of 2013 that is based on the United Nations Commission of International Trade Law’s Legislative Guide on Secured Transactions. The PPSA is the first of its kind in Africa but there are several countries, including Ghana, Kenya, Liberia, South Sudan and Zambia that are in the process of undertaking similar reforms. One of the authors is directly involved as a consultant to the International Finance Corporation of the World Bank Group in all of these countries. Secured transactions have already become an important area of law introducing new concepts for the legal profession, lenders and borrowers in Africa. The book provides commentaries on individual sections of the PPSA that include practical examples, hypotheticals, illustrations of lending practices, relevant scholarly writings, and case law from the jurisdictions that inspired this reform, including Australia, Canada, New Zealand and the United States. This book seeks to provide an easy to read guide that is accessible to lawyers, judges and creditors who will use the law on a daily basis but also to foreign policymakers considering a similar reform. The IFC is about to launch a reform initiative of this kind in South Africa. This remarkable work offers a rare, broad and comprehensive examination of the law relating to secured transactions in Malawi. It comes at the right moment as it focuses on the newly enacted Personal Property Security Act. The authors have succeeded in covering an impressive number of intricate legal questions on the subject with great ease and clarity. The book brings together topics that frequently raise problems in this area of law but which are rarely analysed together and it enriches the perspectives of the reader with a lot of cross -jurisdictional references. It is a’ must have’ for lenders, borrowers and their respective legal advisors. It is also a useful eye opener on the subject for the discerning law student. Kalekeni Kaphale Attorney General, Lilongwe, Malawi Comments: Modernisation of law or law reform in the area of Personal Property Security Law has always been thought as a romantic and an abstract goal. The recent reform in Malawi in this field is a good example of how modernisation of law can be achieved. This book does an excellent job in picking out the principal issues in and challenges associated with the law reform in the area of Personal Property Security Law by an insightful and incisive analysis of the emerging policy questions in Malawian Law. Dr Orkun Akseli Durham University Law School, UK This book offers clear and concise commentary on the Malawian law of secured transactions – the Personal Property Security Act (PPSA). It explains the fundamental concepts underlying the PPSA, such as that of unitary and functional security interest, illustrates the application of its provisions in hypothetical situations, references similar laws in Australia, Canada, New Zealand and the United States and overall provides useful guidance to the users. It is unique in that it provides insights into the drafting of the PPSA itself in which both authors were actively involved. In view of the fact that the PPSA of Malawi implements to a large extent the recommendations of the UNCITRAL Legislative Guide on Secured Transactions, the authors included numerous references to the relevant recommendations of the Guide and its commentaries to direct the user to an invaluable source for further guidance and interpretation. So, this book is yet another testament of the growing influence of the UNCITRAL Legislative Guide on Secured Transactions on both the drafting of secured transactions legislation and its interpretation. This book will not only provide indispensable guidance to the users of the Malawian PPSA but could become an important tool in the implementation of similar reforms in the Sub-Saharan African countries that have already undertaken or contemplate PPSA-like reforms.
