this important five-volume series has been written with both the professional engineerand the academic in mind. Christian lalanne explores every aspect of vibration andshock, two fundamental and extremely significant areas of mechanical engineering,from both a theoretical and practical point of view. as all products need to be designedto withstand the environmental conditions to which they are likely to be subjected,prototypes must be verified by calculation and undergo laboratory tests to meet nationaland international standards.

the five volumes of Mechanical Vibration and Shock Analysis cover all the necessaryissues in this area of mechanical engineering. the theoretical analyses are placed inthe context of both the real world and the laboratory, which is essential for thedevelopment of specifications.

Sinusoidal VibrationVoluMe 1 • MechAnicAl ViBrAtion And Shock AnAlySiS SerieS By chriStiAn lAlAnne

the relative and absolute response of a mechanical system with a single degree of freedomis considered for an arbitrary excitation and its transfer function is defined in various forms.the characteristics of sinusoidal vibration are looked at from both a real world and laboratorypoint of view, along with the transient and steady-state response of the 1-dof system. Bothviscous and non-linear damping are considered.

the various types of swept sine and their properties are described and, for the 1-dof system, theconsequences of an inappropriate choice of sweep rate are discussed. rules governing the choice of suitablesweep rates are then developed from this.

MechAnicAl ViBrAtion And Shock AnAlySiS

by Christian lalannea new and fully revised edition

random VibrationVoluMe 3 • MechAnicAl ViBrAtion And Shock AnAlySiS SerieS By chriStiAn lAlAnne

the vast majority of vibrations encountered in the real environment are random in nature.such vibrations are intrinsically complicated and this volume describes the process thatenables us to simplify the required analysis, along with the analysis of the signal in thefrequency domain.the power spectrum density is also defined, together with the requisite precautions to be

taken in its calculations as well as the processes (windowing, overlapping) necessary to obtain improvedresults.an additional complementary method – the analysis of statistical properties of the time signal – is alsodescribed. this enables the distribution law of the maxima of a random Gaussian signal to be determinedand simplifies the calculation of fatigue damage by avoiding direct peak counting.

Mechanical ShockVoluMe 2 • MechAnicAl ViBrAtion And Shock AnAlySiS SerieS By chriStiAn lAlAnne

this volume considers the shock response spectrum, its various definitions, properties andthe assumptions involved in its calculation. in developing the practical application of theseconcepts, the forms of shock most often used with test facilities are presented together withtheir characteristics and indications of how to establish test configurations comparable withthose in the real, measured environment.

this is followed by a demonstration of how to meet these specifications using standard laboratory equipment– shock machines, electrodynamic exciters driven by a time signal or a response spectrum – with adiscussion on the limitations, advantages and disadvantages of each method.

fatigue damageVoluMe 4 • MechAnicAl ViBrAtion And Shock AnAlySiS SerieS By chriStiAn lAlAnne

Fatigue damage in a system with one degree of freedom is one of the two criteria appliedwhen comparing the severity of vibratory environments. the same criterion is also used for aspecification representing the effects produced by the set of vibrations imposed in a realenvironment. in this volume, which is devoted to the calculation of fatigue damage, Christianlalanne explores the hypotheses adopted to describe the behavior of material affected byfatigue and the laws of fatigue accumulation.

the author also considers the methods for counting response peaks, which are used to establish thehistogram when it is not possible to use the probability density of the peaks obtained with a Gaussian signal.the expressions for mean damage and its standard deviation are established and other hypotheses aretested.

Specification developmentVoluMe 5 • MechAnicAl ViBrAtion And Shock AnAlySiS SerieS By chriStiAn lAlAnne

this volume concerns the presentation of specification development according to the principleof tailoring. the extreme response and the fatigue damage spectra are defined for each typeof stress (sinusoidal vibration, swept sine, shock, random vibration, etc.).the process for establishing a specification from the lifecycle profile of equipment is thendiscussed, taking into account the uncertainty factor (designed to cover uncertainties related

to the real environment and mechanical strength) and the test factor (taking into account the number of testsperformed to demonstrate the resistance of the equipment).

Solid Mechanics using the finite element MethodAlain Berlioz, Toulouse University, France and Philippe Trompette, Consultant, France

after a short review of the basic principles of how the finite element method works, the authorsaddress some of the key aspects of solid mechanics: What is a beam? When and how cana structure be represented by beam elements? What are the basic assumptions? What kindof information does a beam model provide? a generalized beam element is also presented.the same approach is used for a discussion of stress concentrations and stress singularities.

Further chapters are devoted to plate modeling: coupling of membrane and bending, folded, stiffened,composite plates, and to a presentation of the dynamics of structures with a particular focus on the modalmethod. the influence of local failures in the modal response is also analyzed. a commercial software(ansys®) is used in the examples.

Mechanical instabilityTomasz Krysinski, Consultant and François Malburet, ENSAM, Aix-en-Provence,France

this book presents a study of the stability of mechanical systems, i.e. their free responsewhen they are removed from their position of equilibrium after a temporary disturbance.after reviewing the main analytical methods of the dynamical stability of systems, it highlightsthe fundamental difference in nature between the phenomena of forced resonance vibrationof mechanical systems subjected to an imposed excitation and instabilities that characterizetheir free response.

it specifically develops instabilities arising from the rotor–structure coupling, instability of control systems, theself-sustained instabilities associated with the presence of internal damping and instabilities related to thefluid–structure coupling for fixed and rotating structures.For an original approach following the analysis of instability phenomena, the book provides examples ofsolutions obtained by passive or active methods.

Contents

1. notions of instability.2. rotor–structure coupling: examples of ground resonance and air resonance.3. Chain torsion: instability of feedback systems.4. self-sustained instability.5. Fluid–structure interaction.

Arbitrary lagrangian-eulerian fluid–Structure interactionnuMericAl SiMulAtion

Edited by Mhamed Souli, Lille University, France and David J. Benson, University ofCalifornia, San Diego, USA.this book provides the fundamental basics for solving fluid-structure interaction problems,and describes different algorithms and numerical methods used to solve problems wherefluid and structure can be weakly or strongly coupled. the added mass technique is described first. Following this, for general coupling problems

involving large deformation of the structure, the navier-stokes equations need to be solved in a moving meshusing an ale formulation. the main aspects of the fluid structure coupling are then developed. the first andby far simplest coupling method is explicit partitioned coupling. in order to preserve the flexibility andmodularity that are inherent in the partitioned coupling, we also describe the implicit partitioned coupling usingan iterative process. in order to reduce computational time for large-scale problems, an introduction to theProper orthogonal decomposition (Pod) technique applied to Fsi problems is also presented. to extend theapplication of coupling problems, mathematical descriptions and numerical simulations of multiphase problemsusing level set techniques for interface tracking are presented and illustrated using specific coupling problems.Contents

this title starts with some basic notions concerning diffraction by polycrystals and some ofthe most common combined analysis instrumental set-ups are detailed. Powder diffractiondata treatment is introduced and in particular, the rietveld analysis is detailed. the book deals with automatic phase indexing, a necessary step to solve a structure ab-initio. since its effect prevails on real samples where textures are often stabilized,

quantitative texture analysis is also detailed. also discussed are microstructures of the powder diffractionprofiles; quantitative phase analysis from the rietveld analysis; residual stress analysis for isotropic andanisotropic materials; specular x-ray reflectivity and the various associated models. Finally, the bookintroduces the combined analysis concept, showing all the dilemmas that appear when one looks at only onepart of the analyses.

plastic forming processesMaurice Reyne, Consultant

Many books covering plastic materials analyze the behavior of these materials based on theirchemical components or their mechanical properties from mathematical concepts.these approaches, which are fundamental for research, do not concern “transformers” orusers who need practical advice. nevertheless, there are approximately 20 basicimplementation techniques and each of them is distinguished by specific case studies whichgradually become more functional.the aim of this book is therefore to analyze, in a quasi-exhaustive manner, the different

processes which are currently used or are being created in either design, coupling or treatments specificallyused. it is thus written to assist readers in their choice-making. in order to explain these different points in apractical, even pragmatic, way, the reader will find approximately 400 figures or photos that describe the points.

heat transfer in Materials forming processeswith eXerciSeS And SolutionS

Jean-Luc Battaglia, University of Bordeaux, France

this book presents the resolution of thermal problems in various processes of workingmaterial such as molding, cutting, welding or grinding. two steps are presented for each typeof application.the first is analytical, leading to general solutions that are well-adapted to the needs of the

engineer at the time of the first dimensioning of the processes.the second approach is based on the finite element method. this method makes it possible to solve eachproblem with greater precision but at the price of a longer and more expensive implementation, thus providingthe reader with the advantages and disadvantages of the different approaches, so that they can make a moreinformed decision when applying these methods. the inclusion of practical exercises and solutions alsoallows the reader to enrich their understanding by applying their knowledge to real-life cases.

duplex stainless steels (dsss) are chromium-nickel-molybdenum-iron alloys that are usuallyin proportions optimized for equalizing the volume fractions of austenite and ferrite. due totheir ferritic-austenitic microstructure, they possess a higher mechanical strength and a bettercorrosion resistance than standard austenitic steels. this type of steel is now increasing its

application and market field due to its very good properties and relatively low cost.this book is a review of the most recent progress achieved in the last 10 years on microstructure, corrosionresistance and mechanical strength properties, as well as applications, due to the development of newgrades. special attention will be given to fatigue and fracture behavior and to proposed models to accountfor mechanical behavior. each subject will be developed in chapters written by experts recognized around theinternational industrial and scientific communities.the use of duplex stainless steels has grown rapidly in the last 10 years, particularly in the oil and gasindustry, chemical tankers, pulp and paper as well as the chemical industry. in all these examples, topics likewelding, corrosion resistance and mechanical strength properties (mainly in the fatigue domain) are crucial.therefore, the update of welding and corrosion properties and the introduction of topics like texture effects,fatigue and fracture strength properties, and mechanical behavior modeling give this book specific focus andcharacter.

this book is a treatise that brings together some of the latest international research andadvances in the failure of granular geomaterials within a micromechanical approach. itprovides a view of the current scientific community on this topic, putting forward relevantmethods and efficient tools for analysis.

the chapters includes either phenomenological contributions enriched with micromechanical ingredients, orpurely micromechanical investigations. Various failure modes that are encountered in geomaterials and theirimplications in engineering applications are discussed throughout the chapters.the case of porous frictional materials with or without a fluid phase is considered together with the basic rolesof the sliding and opening of contacts as a failure mechanism. the influence of grain crushing as a plausiblemechanism under a variety of stress conditions and grain topologies is also addressed. Finally, fracture incontinuous materials containing grain inclusions is dealt within the context of damage theory.

Micromechanics of granular MaterialsEdited by Bernard Cambou, Ecole Centrale de Lyon, Michel Jean, LMA, Marseille, andFarhang Radjaï, University of Montpellier 2, France

this title’s main focus is devoted to static or dynamic loadings applied to dense materials,although rapid flows and widely dispersed media are also mentioned briefly.three essential areas are covered:local variable analysis: contact forces, displacements and rotations, orientation of contacting

particles and fabric tensors are all examples of local variables. their statistical distributions, such as spatialdistribution and possible localization, are analyzed, taking into account experimental results or numericalsimulations.Change of scales procedures: also known as “homogenization techniques”, these procedures make itpossible to construct continuum laws to be used in a continuum mechanics approach or perform smallerscale analyses.numerical modeling: several methods designed to calculate approximate solutions of dynamical equationstogether with unilateral contact and frictional laws are presented, including molecular dynamics, the distinctelement method and non-smooth contact dynamics.

Edited by Yves Guermond, University of Rouen, France

this title focuses on the evolution of the modeling process and on the new researchperspectives in theoretical and applied geography, as well as spatial planning.in this book, spatial analysis models are confronted by the real conditions of territorialprospect, regional dynamism, cultural policy, health maintenance organization (HMo) and

spatial segregation. this confrontation takes into account the instability of social behavior and thepermanence of partial determinist trajectories.

speech processing addresses various scientific and technological areas. it includes speechanalysis and variable rate coding, in order to store or transmit speech. it also covers speechsynthesis, especially from text, speech recognition, including speaker and languageidentification, and spoken language understanding. this book covers the following topics: how to realize speech production and perception

systems, how to synthesize and understand speech and using state-of-the-art methods in signal processing,pattern recognition, stochastic modeling and computational linguistics, and human factor studies.

from Speech physiology to linguistic phoneticsAlain Marchal, CNRS, University of Provence, France

Communicating by speech is one of the most seemingly-natural activities for humans.However, despite its apparent obviousness and ease, speech production is a very complextask with multiple levels of organization transforming cognitive intent into a meaningfulsequence of sounds.this book aims to establish a bridge between the physiology of speech and linguistics. it

provides a detailed account of the speech production processes and indicates how various languages of theworld make use of human anthropophonic capacities. numerous images are included to enhance thereader’s understanding. it also offers new insights into ways to unify articulatory-based phonetics andphonology, making it essential reading matter for anyone involved in this field.

Artificial Beingsthe conScience of A conSciouS MAchine

Jacques Pitrat, LIP6, University of Paris 6, France

everybody agrees that consciousness and conscience are essential characteristics of humanintelligence. some people believe that it is impossible to create artificial beings with thesepossibilities, and they conclude that the ultimate goal of artificial intelligence is hopeless.Artificial Beings shows that not only is it possible to create artificial beings with capacities in

both domains, but that they do it in a way different from ours, creating a new kind of consciousness.this affords them performances that we cannot reach, not for lack of intelligence, but because our intelligencedepends on networks of neurones imposing restrictions which do not apply to computers.at the start of the creation of an artificial scientist, the main goal was not to study the possibility of buildingthe conscience of a conscious machine. However, after some years of experimentation, it happened thatmany characteristics implemented for improving the efficiency of the system were linked to these capacities.so, when they are present, it is because they are essential for the performances. Moreover, as the goal wasnot to imitate human behavior, some of these methods are different from those used by the neurones in thehuman brain. in this way, we are at the threshold of a new science, artificial cognition, which is interested inthe methods for giving cognitive capabilities to artificial beings making full use of the power of computers.

A to z of Sudokuthe Science Behind Sudoku…

Narendra Jussien, Ecole des Mines, Nantes, France

the science behind sudoku…sudoku is a logic puzzle that has become a worldwide phenomenon in the last few years: but where has itcome from? How does it work? and what is the science behind sudoku – what are the rules for generatingand solving grids?answers to all of these questions can be found in the A to Z of Sudoku. as its title suggests, this bookprovides a “one stop shop” on sudoku, covering the history of the puzzle, its development and growth in theworld’s media, before moving on to the mathematics of sudoku and various techniques that can be used tosolve grids by hand.next, the essentials of software development relating to sudoku are presented along with the recent branchof computer science devoted to solving such problems: constraint programming, showing how the principlebehind solving sudoku grids can be used in other contexts. Finally, the book concludes with a large numberof grids ranging in difficulty from “very easy” to “expert” which the reader can use to apply the techniques theyhave acquired from the book in a practical context.

those interested in finding out more about the theory behind sudoku, its origins, its applications in other fieldsand (of course) how to improve their ability to solve it will find this book a must-read.

communicating embedded SystemsSoftwAre And deSign

Edited by Claude Jard, ENS Cachan and Olivier H. Roux, Nantes University, France

the increased complexity of embedded systems coupled with quick design cycles toaccommodate faster time-to-market requires increased system design productivity thatinvolves both model-based design and tool-supported methodologies.Formal methods are mathematically-based techniques and provide a clean framework in

which to express requirements and models of the systems, taking into account discrete, stochastic andcontinuous (timed or hybrid) parameters with increasingly efficient tools.this book deals with these formal methods applied to communicating embedded systems by presenting therelated industrial challenges and the issues of modeling, model-checking, diagnosis and control synthesis,and by describing the main associated automated tools.

Systems of SystemsEdited by Dominique Luzeaux and Jean-René Ruault, French Ministry of Defense, France

in recent decades, the systems designed in the fields of banking, health, transportation,space, aeronautics, defense, etc. have been becoming increasingly larger. With the growingmaturity of information and communication technologies, systems have been interconnectedwithin growing networks, yielding new services through the combination of the systemfunctionalities. this has led to an increasing complexity that has to be managed in order to

take advantage of these system integrations.Part 1 “systems of systems: concepts and practical illustrations” is a multidisciplinary work on the concept ofthe "systems of systems" that is discussed extensively in current literature. after a critical comparison of thedifferent definitions and a range of various practical illustrations, it provides key answers as to what a systemof systems is and how its complexity can be mastered.Part 2 “systems of systems engineering: methods, standards and tools”’ focuses on both engineering andmodeling, and standardization issues which are critical in order to deal with the key steps of systems-of-systems engineering: elicitation of stakeholders’ needs, architecture optimization, integration of constituentsystems, qualification and utilization.Contents

probabilistic combinatorial optimization on graphsCécile Murat and Vangelis Th. Paschos, University of Paris-Dauphine, France

this title provides a comprehensive survey over the subject of probabilistic combinatorial optimization,discussing probabilistic versions of some of the most paradigmatic combinatorial problems on graphs, suchas the maximum independent set, the minimum vertex covering, the longest path and the minimum coloring.detailed discussion is given to a priori optimization, which is adopted as the main working hypothesis: startingfrom an a priori solution of a ‘super instance’ of a problem, where any datum is present with a certainprobability, this hypothesis consists of creating modifications in order to fit the real instance to be optimized:that is, a sub-instance of the super instance. the main objective of the a priori optimization is thedetermination of a solution of the initial instance, known as the a priori solution, so that its restriction to theoffensive instance is optimized, and the determination of the complexity of its computation. the text alsoincludes a list of combinatorial optimization graph-problems together with a characterization of their optimala priori solution.

Edited by Hakima Chaouchi, TELECOM SudParis, France

the path towards communication ubiquity started years ago with the aim of offering usersdifferent services anytime and anywhere. this is becoming true only because wireless andmobile communication have had a remarkable evolution, as has the miniaturization of mobileterminals, while keeping high performance and security.

the internet of things appears to be the ultimate or next step of ubiquitous networks. it is the imminent futuregeneration of networks that will connect not only networked terminals (mobile phones, computers, smartdevices), but also everyday objects that were until now just “un-networked things” or “inert objects”. this willbe possible by combining the evolving technologies and networking frameworks to be capable of attainingthis very challenging new era of communication. this book puts forward the technologies and the networking architectures which make it possible to supportthe internet of things. amongst these technologies, rFid, sensor and PlC technologies are described anda clear view on how they enable the internet of things is given.this book also provides a good overview of the main issues facing the internet of things such as issues ofprivacy and security, application and usage, and standardization.

ultra-wideband radio propagation channelsPascal Pagani, France Telecom R&D, Friedman Tchoffo Talom, Satimo, Patrice Pajusco,Consultant and Bernard Uguen, University of Rennes 1, France

Ultra-Wideband (UWB) technology consists of transmitting radio signals over frequencybandwidths from 500 MHz to several GHz. its unique characteristics may be exploited for thedesign of high data rate wireless communication systems, as well as localization and imagingapplications. the development and optimization of such systems require a precise knowledge

of the radio transmission medium.this textbook examines all aspects of the propagation channel for UWB systems. UWB technology is firstpresented, with a particular emphasis being placed on its applications, spectrum regulation issues and thedifferent communication techniques.next, the authors introduce the theoretical bases of radioelectric propagation and give an overview of thechannel sounding techniques adapted for UWB signals. the two main principles of UWB channel modelingare finally shown and illustrated: deterministic channel modeling, based on the simulation of the propagationphenomena in a given environment, and statistical channel modeling, which relies on the experimentalanalysis of the main channel characteristics.

Energy Storage examines different applications such as electric power generation,transmission and distribution systems, pulsed systems, transportation, buildings and mobileapplications. For each of these applications, proper energy storage technologies areforeseen, with their advantages, disadvantages and limits.as electricity cannot be stored cheaply in large quantities, energy has to be stored in another

form (chemical, thermal, electromagnetic, mechanical) and then converted back into electric power and/orenergy using conversion systems.Most of the storage technologies are examined: batteries, hydrogen, super capacitors, sMes, flywheels,Caes, thermal storage and hydraulic gravitational storage.

Stéphane Charruau, University of Bordeaux I, France

this book covers the theoretical problems of modeling the electrical behavior of theinterconnections encountered in electronic products that figure in our daily lives. Mostelectronic products have digital processors that have increasingly tightened inner and outerconductors with smaller and smaller geometries. this means parasitic electromagnetic effects

increasingly occur inside and outside these processors, which then cannot work correctly.the aim of this book is to show the theoretical tools of waveform prediction at the design step of a complexand high-speed digital electronic system.

Concentrating its coverage on those 2-d signals comingfrom physical sensors (such as radars and sonars), the discussion explores a 2-d spectralapproach but develops the modeling of 2-d signals and proposes several data-orientedanalysis techniques for dealing with them.

unmanned Aerial VehicleseMBedded control

Edited by Rogelio Lozano, University of Technology of Compiègne, France

the development of unmanned aerial vehicles has interested many researchers in recentyears. the objective is to design aerial objects able to complete surveillance missions in themost autonomous way possible. this assumes they have the ability to complete stable andsolid, disturbance-free hovering or horizontal flights.

the authors present tools needed to obtain dynamic models for several types of aerial objects such ashelicopters, airplanes, airships, flying objects and quadri-rotors. they also address non-linear controlstrategies for each aerodynamic configuration as well as the use of cameras for locating and stabilizing theflying object. the approach presented discusses theoretical as well as practical aspects.this book presents several prototypes for the experimental validation of the aerodynamic configurations andalgorithms proposed. the computer architectures and sensors used are also explained in detail.

Artificial Beingsthe conScience of A conSciouS MAchine

Jacques Pitrat, LIP6, University of Paris 6, France

everybody agrees that consciousness and conscience are essential characteristics of humanintelligence. some people believe that it is impossible to create artificial beings with thesepossibilities, and they conclude that the ultimate goal of artificial intelligence is hopeless.Artificial Beings shows that not only is it possible to create artificial beings with capacities in

both domains, but that they do it in a way different from ours, creating a new kind of consciousness.this affords them performances that we cannot reach, not for lack of intelligence, but because our intelligencedepends on networks of neurones imposing restrictions which do not apply to computers.at the start of the creation of an artificial scientist, the main goal was not to study the possibility of buildingthe conscience of a conscious machine. However, after some years of experimentation, it happened thatmany characteristics implemented for improving the efficiency of the system were linked to these capacities.so, when they are present, it is because they are essential for the performances. Moreover, as the goal wasnot to imitate human behavior, some of these methods are different from those used by the neurones in thehuman brain. in this way, we are at the threshold of a new science, artificial cognition, which is interested inthe methods for giving cognitive capabilities to artificial beings making full use of the power of computers.

Branching random walks in non-homogenous

environmentsElena Yarovaya, Faculty of Mechanics and Mathematics, Moscow, Russia

the book is devoted to a modern section of the probability theory, the so-called theory ofbranching random walks. Chapter 1 describes the random walk model in the finite branching one-source environment.Chapter 2 is devoted to a model of homogenous, symmetrical, irreducible random walk

(without branching) with finite variance of the jumps on the multidimensional integer continuous-time latticewhere transition is possible to an arbitrary point of the lattice and not only to the neighbor state. this modelis a generalization of the simple symmetrical random walk often encountered in the applied studies.in Chapter 3 the branching random walk is studied by means of the spectral methods. Here, the property ofmonotonicity of the mean number of particles in the source plays an important role in the subsequent partsof the book. Chapter 4 demonstrates that existence of an isolated positive eigenvalue in the spectrum of δ-perturbed random walk generator and defines the exponential growth of the process in the supercritical case.Chapter 5 exemplifies application of the tauberian theorems in the asymptotical problems of the probabilitytheory. the final Chapters 6 and 7 are devoted to detailed examination of survival probabilities in the criticaland subcritical cases.Contents

1. Model description and Basic equations.2. random Walk without branching.3. spectral Classification of the First Moments.4. limit theorem for the supercritical Case.

5. Moments in the Critical and subcritical Cases.6. limit theorems for the Critical Case.7. limit theorems for the subcritical Case.

Mathematical Methods in Survival Analysis, reliability

and quality of lifeEdited by Catherine Huber, Nikolaos Limnios, Mounir Mesbah and Mikhail Nikulin

reliability and survival analysis are important applications of stochastic mathematics(probability, statistics and stochastic processes) that are usually covered separately in spiteof the similarity of the involved mathematical theory.this title aims to redress this situation: it includes 21 chapters divided into four parts: survival

Sustainable development in the uSAJean-Marc Zaninetti, University of Orléans, France

after the second World War, the Usa proposed their way of life, based on an unlimitedconsumption of land, goods and energy, as a model for the entire world. nowadays, thisexpansionist model is reaching its limit.this book attempts a comprehensive study of the geographical basis of the americansettlements, as part of the Us overshooting is related to geography due to harsh climates and

the continental size of the nation.However, another element is the result of the cultural habits of expansion and segregation. Urban sprawl, forinstance, is the real achilles' heel of america, because it challenges the cultural revolution required bysustainability.From continental physiography to the case of new orleans and hurricane Katrina, this book explores theseissues with maps and charts created with the help of a nationwide multiscalar Gis.
