El Código Técnico de la Edificación (CTE), que regula la construcción de todos los edificios nuevos y la rehabilitación de los existentes, tanto los destinados a viviendas como los de uso comercial, docente, sanitario, deportivo, industrial o sociocultural, introduce elementos novedosos sobre materiales y tecnicas de construccion para lograr edificios mas seguros y eficientes desde el punto de vista energetico, y establece los requisitos para ello.Posteriormente se promulgo el Real Decreto 1.371/2007, de 19 de octubre, por el que se aprueba el documento basico DB-HR Proteccion frente al ruido y se modifica el CTE. Se incluye, dentro de este, dicho documento basico DB-HR y se incorporan, a lo largo de las paginas, los 300 cambios introducidos por el mencionado Real Decreto. Poco despues, en enero de 2008, el Boletin Oficial del Estado publico una extensisima correccion de errores del propio CTE. A continuacion, la Orden VIV/984/2009, de 15 de abril, introdujo centenares de cambios en el CTE, que asimismo figuran incluidos en el texto de este. El Real Decreto 173/2010, de 19 de febrero, modifico nuevamente el CTE en materia de accesibilidad y no discriminacion de las personas con discapacidad, sustituyendo el documento basico DB-SU Seguridad por el DB-SUA Seguridad y accesibilidad. Finalmente, la Orden FOM/1.635/2013, de 10 de septiembre, ha venido a actualizar todo el Documento Basico DB-HE Ahorro de Energia.Ademas de mucha otra normativa, se incluye el Real Decreto 235/2013, de 5 de abril, por el que se aprueba el procedimiento basico para la certificacion de la eficiencia energetica de los edificios.Los indices sumario y sistematico, asi como los dos extensos indices analiticos de materias referidos a los textos legales y al CTE facilitan la consulta del contenido de esta nueva edicion.

The growing use of polymer composites is leading to increasing demand for fractographic expertise. Fractography is the study of fracture surface morphologies and it gives an insight into damage and failure mechanisms, underpinning the development of physically-based failure criteria. In composites research it provides a crucial link between predictive models and experimental observations. Finally, it is vital for post-mortem analysis of failed or crashed polymer composite components, the findings of which can be used to optimise future designs. Failure analysis and fractography of polymer composites covers the following topics: methodology and tools for failure analysis; fibre-dominated failures; delamination-dominated failures; fatigue failures; the influence of fibre architecture on failure; types of defect and damage; case studies of failures due to overload and design deficiencies; case studies of failures due to material and manufacturing defects; and case studies of failures due to in-service factors. With its distinguished author, Failure analysis and fractography of polymer composites is a standard reference text for researchers working on damage and failure mechanisms in composites, engineers characterising manufacturing and in-service defects in composite structures, and investigators undertaking post-mortem failure analysis of components. The book is aimed at both academic and industrial users, specifically final year and postgraduate engineering and materials students researching composites and industry designers and engineers in aerospace, civil, marine, power and transport applications. * Examines the study of fracture surface morphologies in uderstanding composite structural behaviour* Discusses composites research and post-modern analysis of failed or crashed polymer composite components* Provides an overview of damage mechanisms, types of defect and failure criteria

Master's Thesis from the year 2010 in the subject Engineering - Aerospace Technology, grade: 1,3, University of Applied Sciences Wildau (WIT Wildau Institute of Technology), course: Aviation Management, language: English, comment: Bewertung: Die eingereichte Arbeit beschaftigt sich mit der sehr komplexen Thematik der europaischen Luftfahrtgesetzgebung und der sich daraus ergebenden Verpflichtungen fur die Teilnehmer am Luftverkehr. Es wurden die zum gegenwartigen Zeitpunkt verfugbaren Unterlagen gepruft und bewertet, um daraus eine Handlungsempfehlung zu entwickeln um ein technisches System auch fur den Einsatz genehmigt zu bekommen. Die Arbeit lasst berufliche Erfahrung und eine vertiefte Fachkenntnis erkennen, die weit uber das innerhalb des Masterkurs vermittelte Wissen hinaus geht. Insgesamt eine sehr gute Arbeit., abstract: With the amendment of the European Regulation (EC) No 216/2008 by the new Regulation (EC) No 1108/2009 (into force since 14 December 2009), the area of competency of the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) is progressively extended towards a "total system approach" including ATM, ANS as well as airport safety and interoperability. This new regulation allows airport operators to continue with providing apron management service - but they have to "declare their capability" for offering this service within the certification process of the aerodrome. An advanced surface movement guidance and control system is one important tool for providing this service at large and complex airports. With the implementation of an advanced surface movement guidance and control system (A-SMGCS), the airport contributes to the precise surface guidance of aircraft to and from a runway while maintaining safe distance to each other as well as to obstacles and vehicles. The system is aimed to assist the ground controllers in managing the traffic situation on the movement area in all weather conditions.

Diploma Thesis from the year 2012 in the subject Engineering - Aerospace Technology, grade: A, - (University of Zilina), course: Aviation, language: English, abstract: The economic situation of recent years forces to operate at highest payloads possible and therefore maximum allowable take-off masses of an aircraft. An optimization of the take-off performance plays important role as never before. The take-off performance data for several flight and ambient conditions are usually presented in so called runway analyses. This paper answers possible questions about their application and computing, which may interest a personnel of flight engineering departments or pilots. Moreover, this thesis offers a summary of factors affecting the maximum take-off mass and appropriate take-off speeds, which together represent necessary performance data for a safe take-off. Particular sections describe a principle of the optimization process and offer a designed conceptual model in a form of flowcharts according to which it is possible to perform a calculation for various aerodrome or weather conditions. The created conceptual model may also serve as a core for the software application, which reduces the time required to do the calculation manually.

The development of clean, sustainable energy systems is one of the pre-eminent issues of our time. Most projections indicate that combustion-based energy conversion systems will continue to be the predominant approach for the majority of our energy usage, and gas turbines will continue to be important combustion-based energy conversion devices for many decades to come, used for aircraft propulsion, ground-based power generation, and mechanical-drive applications. This book compiles the key scientific and technological knowledge associated with gas turbine emissions into a single authoritative source. The book has three sections: the first section reviews major issues with gas turbine combustion, including design approaches and constraints, within the context of emissions. The second section addresses fundamental issues associated with pollutant formation, modeling, and prediction. The third section features case studies from manufacturers and technology developers, emphasizing the system-level and practical issues that must be addressed in developing different types of gas turbines that emit pollutants at acceptable levels.
