In Detail: High-Density Housing: Concepts, Planning, Construction (In Detail (englisch))
In view of the growing number of diverse life styles, the search for flexible, adaptable floor plans has become a fundamental issue in residential building. That the continued demand in urban centres can only be responsibly satisfied by high-density housing is undisputed. More than ever before, building high-density housing is a diverse and challenging task for planners and architects. This book presents international projects which document the complexity of the task, from the design of the floor plans, the development and use of resources, to the use of economically beneficial building systems. The high quality of the architecture and construction in such residential areas can be clearly seen in the uniform illustrations of the floor plans, and large-scale drawings of details. The introductory contributions discuss extensively the topic of floor plan design and development. This book is a comprehensive review of the current state of residential building, the perspectives and future developments..

High Density Plasma Sources: Design, Physics, and Performance (Materials Science and Process Technology Series)
This book describes the design, physics, and performance of high density (Ne> 10E11 cmE-3) plasma sources which have been extensively explored in low pressure (p -0.1-100 mTorr) plasma processing, such as plasma etching and planarization, plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition of thin films, sputtered deposition of metals and dielectrics, epitaxial growth of silicon and GaAS, and many other applications. Beginning from the early 1970s up to the mid-1980s, only one type of plasma source, namely, capacitive RF discharge excited at a frequency of 13.56 M Hz, was commonly used in etch and deposition tools. The relatively low plasma density (Ne = 10E9 -1 OE1 0 cmE-3) which is typical for this type of source, was one of the major factors that limited plasma process capability, in particular, etching rate and film growth. Low plasma density is an inherent feature of a 13.56 MHz plasma tool, and is the result of the low ionization efficiency of a capacitively coupled RF discharge operating at a RF frequency of a few MHz. The need for plasma process tools with high plasma densities of Ne> 1 OE12 cmE-3, was one of the motivations in the search for novel plasma sources with higher ionization efficiency. It was widely accepted that such plasmas could be generated in discharges excited at higher RF (including microwave) frequencies, or in discharges employing power coupling schemes which are more efficient than capacitive coupling, and by utilizing confinement and resonant effects of static magnetic field generated by external means (coils, permanent magnets). In the last few years, substantial progress has been made in the design, research, and development of various types of plasma sources which were considered as candidates for the re- placement of a "traditional" 13.56 MHz capacitively coupled source. The present book describes the physical principles, design features, plasma parameters, and process operation characteristics of RF and microwave high density plasma sources suitable for use in low pressure (1-100 mTorr) large area D = 15-25 cm) plasma processing. This book presents a comprehensive survey, and a detailed description and characterization of most advanced high-density plasma sources used in plasma processing. The book is balanced in that it gives both a theoretical treatment, and practical applications. This book should be of considerable interest to scientists and engineers working on plasma source design, and process development. .

High-Energy-Density Physics: Fundamentals, Inertial Fusion, and Experimental Astrophysics (Shock Wave and High Pressure Phenomena)
The raw numbers of high-energy-density physics are amazing: shock waves at hundreds of km/s (approaching a million km per hour), temperatures of millions of degrees, and pressures that exceed 100 million atmospheres. This book introduces the reader to the fundamental tools and discoveries of high-energy-density physics. It surveys the production of high-energy-density conditions, the fundamental plasma and hydrodynamic models that can describe them and the problem of scaling from the laboratory to the cosmos. Connections to astrophysics will be discussed throughout. The book is intended to support coursework in high-energy-density physics, to meet the needs of new researchers in this field, and also to serve as a useful reference on the fundamentals. .

solarCity Linz-Pichling: Nachhaltige Stadtentwicklung / Sustainable Urban Development
In den 90er Jahren entschied sich die Stadtverwaltung von Linz zu einem innovativen Schritt: Über 10.000 Wohnungssuchenden musste Quartier geschaffen werden, eine großflächige Stadterweiterung stand auf dem Programm. Da mit konventionellen Bauten ein hoher Verbrauch fossiler Energie einhergeht, entschied man sich – erstmals im verdichteten Wohnungsbau – für eine rein ökologische Variante. Die städtebauliche Planung des Arials stammt im Kern von Roland Rainer. Die Freiraumplanung vom Atelier Dreiseitl. Für das energetisch/architektonische Gesamtkonzept wurde die internationale READ-Gruppe gewonnen, bestehend aus Thomas Herzog, Renzo Piano, Norman Foster, Richard Rogers sowie dem Energietechnikplaner Norbert Kaiser. .

The High Strangeness of Dimensions, Densities and the Process of Alien Abduction
Anyone who wants to understand the hyperdimensional reality which is the "home" of alleged aliens, should pick up Laura Knight-Jadczyk's latest book, The High Strangeness of Dimensions, Densities and the Process of Alien Abduction.
