Beams/Foundations/Frames - Buildings/Structures by Constro Facilitator

One of the most significant aspects of constructing a building or structure is structural engineering and design. It can include a variety of services for the analysis and design of the renovation of existing arrangements, new structures and foundation systems. As well, services can consist of assessing existing structures such as the analysis of a failing structure. The structural design process of a building can be divided into three stages: load calculation, structural analysis and design. With rigorous structural testing, evaluations, and inspections, structural designing plays a significant role in satisfying the operational safety, practical functioning, and budgetary resources of the project while ensuring that all structural elements remain stable and safe.

Bayesian Methods for Interaction and Design
English | 2022 | ISBN: 110883499X | 373 Pages | PDF | 66 MB
Intended for researchers and practitioners in interaction design, this book shows how Bayesian models can be brought to bear on problems of interface design and user modelling. It introduces and motivates Bayesian modelling and illustrates how powerful these ideas can be in thinking about human-computer interaction, especially in representing and manipulating uncertainty. Bayesian methods are increasingly practical as computational tools to implement them become more widely available, and offer a principled foundation to reason about interaction design. The book opens with a self-contained tutorial on Bayesian concepts and their practical implementation, tailored for the background and needs of interaction designers. The contributed chapters cover the use of Bayesian probabilistic modelling in a diverse set of applications, including improving pointing-based interfaces; efficient text entry using modern language models; advanced interface design using cutting-edge techniques in Bayesian optimisation; and Bayesian approaches to modelling the cognitive processes of users.

Bach's Legacy: The Music as Heard by Later Masters by Russell Stinson
English | May 22, 2020 | ISBN: 0190091223 | True EPUB | 192 pages | 8.5 MB
Johann Sebastian Bach's legacy is undeniably one of the richest in the history of music, with a vast influence on posterity that has only grown since his rediscovery in the early nineteenth century. In this latest addition to his long list of Bach studies, renowned Bach scholar Russell Stinson examines how four of the greatest composers of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries - Felix Mendelssohn, Robert Schumann, Richard Wagner, and Edward Elgar - engaged with Bach's legacy, not only as composers per se, but also as performers, conductors, scholars, critics, and all-around musical ambassadors.
