Knowledge Transfer

This book delves into the benefits arising from research collaborations, shedding light on their multifaceted impacts. It explores the nexus of collaboration, knowledge convergence, and knowledge cohe

Concepts in Reproduction integrates the principal mechanisms of reproduction among eukaryotes. It emphasizes processes and approaches that evolved to address specific problems inherent in reproduction. It is recommended for advanced undergrad students, new grad students, and researchers or clinicians seeking to expand their knowledge.

This book is an introduction to epistemology written with the student foremost in mind. It provides an overview of basic concepts and problems in the theory of knowledge and directly addresses a quest

Combining an in-depth exploration of equine behaviour with clinical practice from a new progressive perspective, Equine Behaviour in Practice: Understanding Horses and Treating Behaviour Problems focuses not just on the horse’s behaviour but also on the behaviour of the human interacting with the horse. Acclaimed Clinical Equine Behaviourist Debbie Busby delivers evidence-based knowledge that will equip readers with the understanding and skills to become effective equine behaviour consultants. Supported by considered discussion of how and why horses sometimes struggle to cope, the book comprehensively explains how to consult on and treat a range of equine behaviour problems.Rather than providing a formulaic "here’s the problem; here’s how to fix it", Busby encourages readers to develop a critical biopsychosocial evaluation based on an understanding of how horses evolved, their ethological and physiological adaptations, how they learn, and how their welfare and wellbeing can be assessed

This book demonstrates how to formulate the equations of mechanical systems. Providing methods of analysis of complex mechanical systems, the book has a clear focus on efficiency, equipping the reader with knowledge of algorithms that provide accurate results in reduced simulation time.The book uses Kane's method due to its efficiency, and the simple resulting equations it produces in comparison to other methods and extends it with algorithms such as order-nKane's method compensates for the errors of premature linearization, which are often inherent within vibrations modes found in a great deal of public domain softwareDescribing how to build mathematical models of multibody systems with elastic components, the book applies this to systems such as construction cranes, trailers, helicopters, spacecraft, tethered satellites, and underwater vehiclesIt also looks at topics such as vibration, rocket dynamics, simulation of beams, deflection, and matrix formulationFlexible Multibody Dynamics
