La obra surge de una búsqueda colectiva de herramientas y métodos de aproximación y comprensión de las dinámicas, patrones y acciones de ocupación y construcción de los asentamientos espontáneos, que se han sucedido en Colombia a través del tiempo y que en los últimos sesenta años, se han intensificado por razones de desplazamiento forzado, violencia y falta de oportunidades en el campo.
Accessible to all readers, including students of secondary school and amateur technology enthusiasts, Robotics, Mechatronics, and Artificial Intelligence simplifies the process of finding basic circuits to perform simple tasks, such as how to control a DC or step motor, and provides instruction on creating moving robotic parts, such as an "e;eye"e; or an "e;ear.
This book offers in-depth ethnographic analyses of key informants' interviews on the ecological urbanism and ecosystem services (ES) of selected green infrastructure (GI) in Yoruba cities of Ile-Ife, Ibadan, Osogbo, Lagos, Abeokuta, Akure, Ondo, among others in Southwest Nigeria.
Now in its second volume, Regreening the Built Environment provides an overview of physical and social environmental challenges that the planet is facing and presents solutions that restore ecological processes, reclaim open space, foster social equity, and facilitate a green economy.
Contemporary cities are shaped by the unlikely adjacencies of objects that are vastly different in kind, origin, and scale: buildings, infrastructure, and other urban components that over time accumulate into mismatched configurations.
The declared goal of this book, an extended and revised translation of the German edition (2021), is to show how a unified model of the psyche and body can be developed via insights from psychoanalysis, neurology and computer technology.
