Book excerpt: Paper and cardboard as sustainable building materials are currently the subject of research and testing. They can be produced inexpensively, are made from renewable raw materials and are completely recyclable. The focus of their application is on temporary uses, such as for transitional schools, emergency shelters or "microhomes". Properly protected from moisture and fire, the material proves to be durable. Design and aesthetic qualities are by no means neglected, as case studies by Pritzker Prize winner Shigeru Ban demonstrate: the Chengdu Elementary School, the Paper Concert Hall in Aquila or the Cardboard Cathedral in Christchurch all provided a sign of hope after devastating earthquakes. This introduction explains the technology of building with cardboard and paper and shows a wide range of examples.

This book was released on 2010-04-12 with total page 536 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Physics for future world leaders Physics and Technology for Future Presidents contains the essential physics that students need in order to understand today's core science and technology issues, and to become the next generation of world leaders. From the physics of energy to climate change, and from spy technology to quantum computers, this is the only textbook to focus on the modern physics affecting the decisions of political leaders and CEOs and, consequently, the lives of every citizen. How practical are alternative energy sources? Can satellites really read license plates from space? What is the quantum physics behind iPods and supermarket scanners? And how much should we fear a terrorist nuke? This lively book empowers students possessing any level of scientific background with the tools they need to make informed decisions and to argue their views persuasively with anyone—expert or otherwise. Based on Richard Muller's renowned course at Berkeley, the book explores critical physics topics: energy and power, atoms and heat, gravity and space, nuclei and radioactivity, chain reactions and atomic bombs, electricity and magnetism, waves, light, invisible light, climate change, quantum physics, and relativity. Muller engages readers through many intriguing examples, helpful facts to remember, a fun-to-read text, and an emphasis on real-world problems rather than mathematical computation. He includes chapter summaries, essay and discussion questions, Internet research topics, and handy tips for instructors to make the classroom experience more rewarding. Accessible and entertaining, Physics and Technology for Future Presidents gives students the scientific fluency they need to become well-rounded leaders in a world driven by science and technology.

This book was released on 2016-07-06 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes a novel strategy to design magnetic paper materials and gain a deeper understanding for the bending behavior of paper-based magnetic actuators upon the application of an external magnetic field. Magnetic paper sheets have been prepared by using different strategies, including the physical entrapment of magnetic beads within surface-attached polymer networks and the covalent attachment of polymer-modified magnetic particles to cellulose fibers. After preparation, the magnetic paper sheets have been characterized with respect to the loading degree, wetting properties, morphology and magnetism by using different methods. Furthermore, paper-based actuators have been fabricated and the bending behavior of such actuators within an external magnetic field has been studied in detail. Thereby, a simple model has been developed to understand the bending behavior of magnetic paper in more depth. In addition, first concepts for the use of magnetic paper sheets in high-tech applications, including magnetic fluid shutters, that allow the fluid transport between adjacent paper sheets, are described.
