Emerald Publishing Limited FIDIC 2017
Book SynopsisFIDIC 2017: A definitive guide to claims and disputes is an essential reference on the claim and dispute resolution procedures in the second edition of the FIDIC contract suite.Trade ReviewIn FIDIC 2017: A definitive guide to claims and disputes, Nicholas Brown has produced a magisterial discussion of the claims and dispute process under the FIDIC second editions of Contract. The quality and usefulness of this book is hard to overemphasise. Covering as it does the processes of claim, entitlement, Dispute Board determinations and enforcement, and arbitration under the ICC Arbitration Rules, it will serve as a handbook for owners, contractors, project administrators, lawyers and arbitrators, for which all will be grateful. There is no doubt that it will be used as the go to reference work for those involved in, or considering the use of, the FIDIC suite of contracts. -- Professor Doug Jones AO, AustraliaAnyone considering making a Claim under FIDIC 2017 faces a difficult task of navigating a path to success. This book masterfully maps that path and provides a guide to the necessary steps in the multi-tiered process to be followed in establishing the Claim. It explains the difference between the provisions in the Red, Yellow and Silver forms and uses figures to explain some of the complexities involved in navigating the various processes. -- Sir Vivian Ramsey QC FREngFIDIC 2017: A Definitive Guide to Claims and Disputes is certainly a welcome addition to the existing texts on the FIDIC Second Edition. The book is brilliantly crafted with a clear objective – to provide a detailed and procedurally focused account of the FIDIC 2017 dispute avoidance and resolution process. Focused primarily on the FIDIC 2017 Red, Yellow and Silver Forms, the book offers a step-by-step explanation of the multi-tiered process concerning Claims and Disputes. -- Thayananthan Baskaran and Clement Ling, Baskaran, Kuala LumpurNicholas Brown’s stage-by-stage, step-by-step approach delivers very practical guidance that project team members will find invaluable. Indeed, the guide is so full of case law examples and other useful references, and in explaining what FIDIC intends, that it will cover most of the circumstances that practitioners on-site will be faced with. -- Dr Tony Farrow, Ankura Consulting, UKThe author has brilliantly brought out the wide and in-depth application and implications of the FIDIC 2017 claims and dispute resolution provisions. These provisions are explained in detail in each step, from the root cause of the claim until it is resolved. The author has aptly corelated the past case histories to the relevant provisions which gives the reader a crystal-clear understanding. Well-structured and the substance flows without any disconnect. This guide is a must for every practicing Contract / Claim management professional, Adjudicator, Arbitrator and Techno-Legal expert. -- Rajarathnam Karthikeyan and Venkatraman Mahadevan, ZEUS Project Consultants Private Limited, India and Sri LankaWhere Nicholas Brown’s FIDIC 2017: A Definitive Guide to Claims and Disputes stands apart from the field is in its detailed treatment of the provisions that deal with claims and disputes that may arise under [the FIDIC suite of contracts]. The book is peppered with flow-charts of how, for example, timelines work for certain kinds of claims or how various clauses interact. These are all illustrations of a very methodical approach that Nicholas Brown has taken to analyse the clauses and their implications in practice. To those who may be involved in such disputes, FIDIC 2017: A Definitive Guide to Claims and Disputes is a must-have addition for the bookshelf. -- Shourav Lahiri, Barrister, Atkin Chambers, UK

Nova Science Publishers Inc Electrospinning & Electroplating: Fundamentals,
Book SynopsisElectrospinning is a simple and efficient process in producing nanofibers. The use of an electrospinning process in fabricating tissue engineering scaffolds has received great attention in recent years due to its simplicity and ability to fabricate ultrafine nanofibers. Chapter One investigates the process of formation of ultrafine fibres and nonwoven membranes by electrospinning from natural degradable polymers -- polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs); physical, mechanical, and biological properties of the products have been included. Chapter Two aims to give an insight into the use of this interesting class of polymers in electrospinning as well as to explore the wide range of possible applications. Chapter Three reveals the fundamental working principles of electrospinning process and the effect of electrospinning process parameters towards the nanofibers morphology. Chapter Four provides detailed information on the background of electrospinning, fundamental principles and theory, investigation on parameters involved in nanofibers structural/ biological/mechanical characteristics, advantages of superb properties and biomedical applications of electrospun nanofibres, particularly in tissue engineering heart valves. Chapter Five focuses on the fabrication and characterisation of electrospun PVDF, PVDF/PLA (50/50 wt %) and PVDF/G (99.5/0.5 wt %) membranes. Chapter Six presents the main results of recent experimental investigation of the electrodeposition and characterisation of Fe/TiO2 composite coatings obtained from an environmentally friendly methanesulfonate iron plating bath containing colloidal TiO2 particles.

Nova Science Publishers Inc Friction Stir Welding (FSW): Advances in Research
Book SynopsisThe opening chapter provides a comprehensive insight into dissimilar materials joined by FSW technology. FSW parameters such as tool design, tool pin offset, rotational speed, welding speed, tool tilt angle and position of workpiece material in the fixture for dissimilar materials are summarized. In the next chapter the author confirms the emission of particles in the nanorange during FSW of the most commonly used aluminium alloys, AA 5083 and AA 6082, which are originated from the aluminium alloy itself, due to friction of the welding tool against the workpiece. In the closing chapter, feasibility to join 2.5 mm thick AA5052 aluminium alloy and 1.4 mm thick high strength steel, DP590, by conventional FSW process (FSW) and TIG-assisted HFSW process (HFSW) is studied through couple experimental and numerical analysis. A comparative study in joining of dissimilar materials by conventional FSW and HFSW processes is performed to realize the effect of different welding parameters on the growth of IMC layer thickness.

Special Interest Model Books Simple Workshop Devices
Book SynopsisHowever well equipped the workshop may be there seems to be an incessant need to make up special gadgets of one sort or another. These may range from mutilating a clothes peg to act as a 'third hand' up to major modifications to an existing machine tool. The making of such devices can be fun (indeed, some may appear to do nothing else!) but nevertheless the time taken up in 'devising the device' can often delay the completion of an important project. Shared experience is a most potent tool in reducing such delays, and can, moreover, often provide solutions to problems hitherto believed to be intractable. Tubal Cain has enjoyed more than sixty years' experience in designing and building engines and machines (in both full size and model dimensions) and over this time has made many ancillary devices. In this book he shares 52 of them with you. A number of these had been published in magazines from time to time and some were assembled in volume form about thirty years ago. The opportunity was later taken not only to reprint that book but to revise some of the entries to take advantage of user experience, to add new material and to introduce it into the popular Workshop Practice Series.Table of ContentsFive Clamp and Vice Projects. Ten Jigs and Fixtures. Twenty-five Projects Round and About the Lathe. Thirteen Miscellaneous Projects.
