Kastellet Frederikshavns fængselshistorie gennem 250 årDenne bog er en moderniseret, opdateret version af Victor Krohns ”Kastellets Fængselshistorie” der oprindeligt udkom i blot 100 spritduplikerede eksemplarer i 1926. Bogen har lige siden været hovedværket for denne både spændende og tragiske del af Kastellets 350-årige historie, men grundet sin sjældenhed har den været svær at opdrive. Derfor har ”Kastellets Venner & Historisk Samling” valgt at fejre Kastellets 350 års jubilæum ved at genudsende bogen, men i Krohns ånd i en stærkt udvidet, opdateret og moderniseret udgave. Victor Krohn stræbte selv efter at bestandigt forbedre sine publikationer – vi tror, han ville have kunnet lide denne nye version.

Erik den Rødes efterkommere, de norrøne grøn­lændere, beboede det sydvestlige Grønland i et halvt årtusinde indtil midten af 1400-årene, hvor de sidste nordboere af endnu uopklarede grunde forsvandt. Den grønlandske jord har bevaret den unikke kulturarv efter nordboerne, og Woven into the Earth præsenterer et fuldstændigt katalog over de norrøne tekstilfund fra 28 lokaliteter udgravet af danske arkæologer igennem de sidste par hundrede år.

I denne bog viser Moa Brännström Ott, hvordan du kommer i gang med at snitte, hvordan du får fat i træ, og hvilke snittegreb du skal kunne. Trin for trin lærer du at snitte lige skeer, bøjede skeer, smørknive, spatler og kopper, du kan have med på tur. Du lærer også, hvordan du holder kniven skarp og plejer din økse.”Når jeg snitter, bliver jeg rolig indeni. Det er min måde at slappe af på, og samtidig minder det mig om skoven – et sted, jeg altid savner, når jeg ikke er der. Skeer, grydeskeer og salatbestik er ting, jeg tit bruger i køkkenet, og hver gang minder de mig også om, hvor vigtigt det er for mig at skabe noget. Selv noget så beskedent som en smørkniv i birketræ,” fortæller forfatteren.

During the 1980's, research was being carried out to instrument and monitor the piled foundation beneath one leg of the BP Magnus platform in order to determine the actual loads imposed on the piles and seabed by the structural and environmental forces. This volume brings together the findings and discussions resulting from this research.

In the modern world, travel and commerce within the aviation industry are major drivers of global economic growth. Nonetheless, a number of barriers stand in the way of the aviation industry's continued expansion and viability. The largest of these issues is the fuel usage in aircraft. An increase in fuel consumption results in a rise in operating costs and anthropogenic emissions.In order to evaluate aviation fuel consumption criteria, the author's goal in this book is to evolve, conceptualize, and develop a reliable Reduction in Aviation Fuel Consumption (RAFC) model.A thorough assessment of the literature served as the foundation for the development and conceptualization of the RAFC framework. Therefore, this book examined a mix of qualitative and quantitative methods to implement the methodology with primary and secondary data. It carried out analysis utilizing a variety of techniques, including regression analysis, factor analysis, structural equation modeling, and AHP-entropy. This combination guaranteed the study's adaptability, economy, and consistency. Future interest in minimizing fuel consumption and emissions and maximizing revenue under prevailing social, economic, political, environmental, and other restrictions might be stoked by knowledge of RAFC correlations with factors and sub-factors. Consequently, it will lead aviation toward a future that is both ecologically friendly and fuel-efficient. This book is a vital resource for academics, researchers, engineers, airline personnel, and decision-makers (governments and regulatory organizations) as it offers a thorough framework that gives an overall view of the aviation industry with regard to fuel usage.

This book showcases Nigerian and South African experiences on space politics, policy and strategy vis-à-vis their development and security aspirations, while contributing to the broader African and the Global-South perspectives on the subject. Space policy in developing countries such as Nigeria and South Africa is motivated by utilitarian promises that space and the attendant technologies have the potential to advance development and security interests of the affected nations. However, several decades into the orbital journey of these countries, little is known of their space politics, policies, strategies, capacities and capabilities, and realisation of desired objectives. Beyond pure and applied sciences reductionism, this book offers social science perspectives on space studies in Africa, as it examines the intricate relationships of historical, geographical, social, demographic, economic, political, administrative, and strategic factors, nationally, regionally and globally thathave shaped research and development of space science and technologies, and their benefits, in Nigeria and South Africa.

This study assumes Space Elevators can and must be built. "Space Elevators: The Green Road to Space," completed in April 2021, emphasizes that Space Elevators will not replace rockets but would join them on parallel paths towards the stars. This Dual Space Access Strategy will carry out the missions that are now planned and ensure the future we dream of becomes a reality. Space Elevators are needed to do the "heavy lifting" for movement off planet. Their transformational characteristics will enable so many of humanity's dreams by moving huge mass to far away destinations.Space Elevator Vision: Space Elevators are the Green Road to Space while they enable humanity's most important missions by moving massive tonnage to GEO and beyond. They accomplish this safely, routinely, inexpensively, efficiently, daily and they are environmentally neutral.
