This book provides the fundamental techniques required by anyone interpreting discrete test data, conducting time history analysis or interpreting its results. The concepts involved in the sampling of continuous phenomena to obtain discrete time series are presented mainly in the context of strong motion or ambient data. The book covers topics related to dynamic testing, modeling and analysis, as well as the selection of time history records. Some of the examples presented here can be used to verify or augment routines implemented in "black box" time history manipulation software that readers might already be using. The time histories treated in this book can be from strong motion recording, from measurements of structures during dynamic tests, or from outputs of time history analyses of structural models. The book provides the tools for the preparation and interpretation of the input data for dynamic analysis and for the evaluation of output data. This should allow the reader to understand the quality of the information that is fed into dynamic analysis algorithms. Thus, if properly applied, it should help guard against the "garbage in" problem, which affects a certain portion of dynamic analysis work. Many of the tools and techniques provided in this book should also allow an astute user to assess the quality of the output obtained from their own dynamic analysis. Readers are assumed to have some familiarity with basic statistics and differential and integral calculus equivalent to a first or second year science or engineering university education. The book covers the theory and provides worked examples that allow the readers to implement their own routines to; manipulate time histories, compute elastic response spectra, develop floor design spectra, linearly scale input motions or determine frequencies and mode shapes form ambient data. Dr. Felber has given several seminars and courses on this topic both in Switzerland and Canada. This book provides a comprehensive collection of over 100 completed examples from these seminars, courses and other publications by the author. The majority of examples in this book are presented using Mathcad 15 as its worksheets show the mathematical formulation and results in a manner similar to neat hand produced engineering calculations. Furthermore, Mathcad 15 rudimentary programing ability is sufficient for all the concepts in this book. If the reader is familiar with other programing tools that have comparable graphic output capabilities then it should be straightforward to convert the routines provided here to other structured programing languages such as C++. The first few examples in this book are designed to introduce the reader to Mathcad 15 concepts. Thus for these examples, the Mathcad 15 worksheets are described in great detail. As more complex examples are introduced throughout the book, the reader is expected to become familiar with Mathcad 15 syntax and the examples will focus more on the underlying problems. Using Mathcad 15 overcomes many of the notoriously time consuming aspects of performing hand calculations or the readability/traceablilty aspects involved in using spreadsheets, that has been associated with classical dynamic analysis texts and examples. Thus more representative examples are facilitated in this book.

There are several characteristics of Nathan Rotenstreich's work which are striking: his thoughtful writings are both subtle and deep; they are steeped in his critical appreciation of other thinkers of this and preceding times, an appreciation which is formed by his learned understanding of the history of philosophy; and with all this, he has an original and independent intelligence. He has from time to time brought his skills to bear upon historical scholarship, most notably perhaps in his book Between Past and Present (1958, 2nd edition, 1973), his interpretive essays in the philosophy of history Philosophy, History and Politics (1976) and his scholarly work concerned with the influence of historical development upon modern Jewish thought, Tradition and Reality (1972). Related to these, and equally works of that philosophical humanity which Professor Rotenstreich embodies, are his Humanism in the Contemporary Era (1963), Spirit and Man: An Essay on Being and Value (1963) and Reflection and Action (1983). Rotenstreich combines both the naturalistic and the phenomenological attitudes in an interesting and illuminating way through the full spectrum of issues in the philosophy of history in this century. Surely he sets boundaries to any doubtful extrapolation. Not only would he bring the understanding of history back from those who claim it as only a positive science but equally would he prevent the transformation of that understanding into merely speculative inquiry.

For more than five decades, John Hayes's scholarship has had a decisive influence on scholars and students in the field of Hebrew Bible study. This collection of ten essays, written between 1968 and 1995, displays his remarkable and thought-provoking elucidation of Israelite history, prophecy, and law. These essays make significant contributions that challenge the mainstream scholarship establishment with their daring interpretations and explanations, along with their bold, innovative theories. The way in which Hayes approaches the study of seminal figures, biblical texts, and historical reconstructions, combined with his analysis of specific methods, will have lasting implications for contemporary scholarship. He argues that biblical texts must be understood as being embedded within the particular historical, social, cultural, and political matrices from which they emerged. Whether exploring the social formation of early Israel, the final years of Samaria, or the social concept ofcovenant, he demonstrates a textually focussed and exegetically based approach. Hayes's essays provide valuable insights that help contextualise developments within mid- to late-twentieth-century interpretation, thereby granting scholars glimpsesof key moments in the evolution of particular methods, trends, and models that have given shape to current research approaches. Familiarity with Hayes's writings thus allows contemporary interpreters to envisage new avenues and perspectives in critical discussion of the Hebrew Bible.

In this volume, Devorah Dimant assembles twenty-seven thoroughly updated and partly rewritten articles discussing various aspects of the Dead Sea Scrolls that she published over the past three decades. An introductory essay written especially for this volume surveys the present state of research on the Scrolls. Dealing with major themes developed in the Dead Sea Scrolls, the author reflects the rapid expansion and change of perspective that has taken place in research on the collection in recent years following its full publication. Among the topics treated are the nature and contents of the Scrolls collection as a whole, the specific literature of the community that owned this collection, the Aramaic texts and the apocryphal and pseudepigraphic works found therein. The volume also includes discussions of particular themes such as the history of the community related to the Scrolls, its self-image and particular interpretation of biblical prophecies, and its notion of time.

Crucial to most research in physics, as well as leading to the development of inventions such as the transistor and the laser, quantum mechanics approaches its centenary with an impressive record. However, the field has also long been the subject of ongoing debates about the foundations and interpretation of the theory, referred to as the quantum controversy. This Oxford Handbook offers a historical overview of the contrasts which have been at the heart of quantum physics for the last 100 years. Drawing on the wide-ranging expertise of several contributors working across physics, history, and philosophy, the handbook outlines the main theories and interpretations of quantum physics. It goes on to tackle the key controversies surrounding the field, touching on issues such as determinism, realism, locality, classicality, information, measurements, mathematical foundations, and the links between quantum theory and gravity. This engaging introduction is an essential guide for all those interested in the history of scientific controversies and history of quantum physics. It also provides a fascinating examination of the potential of quantum physics to influence new discoveries and advances in fields such quantum information and computing.

The Christian Bible serves as the sacred scripture of the Christian community. It is read regularly by many people around the world today, as it has been for centuries. But how should one interpret this text? This reader presents a variety of perspective on how to relate historical and theological considerations when approaching the Bible. It encourages students and scholars to ponder how historical and theological categories shape one's view of three crucial realities: the text of the Bible, the human subject who reads the text, and the nature of the exchange between the two in the practice of reading. As historical and theological categories are applied to these realities, are they mutually exclusive, or can they be combined in some way? This reader encourages students and scholars to explore these important questions by bringing together a selection of some of modernity's most influential discussions of the issues as well as some of the present day's most distinguished attempts to weigh in on the debate.
