Presented at the 1st International Conference on Urban Growth and the Circular Economy that was held in Alicante, Spain the papers included in this book focus on the continuing and rapid growth of cities and their regions of influence and how that has led to the need to find new solutions which allow for promoting their sustainable development. The quest for the Sustainable City has until recently focused on the efficient use of resources with the application of technical advances giving rise to the definition of SMART Cities. The economic model emphasised however is still “linear” in the sense that the design and consumption follows the pattern of extraction of natural resources, manufacturing, product usage and waste disposal. The continuous growth of urban population has recently given rise to the emergence of a new model which responds better to the challenges of natural resource depletion as well as waste management. This model has been called the “circular economy”. The circular economy is a recent concept based on the reuse of what up to now has been considered wastes, reintroducing them into the productive cycle. The objective of the circular economy is to reduce consumption and achieve savings in terms of raw materials, water and energy, thus contributing to the preservation of resources in order to reach sustainable development. One of the most important of these resources is water which is becoming a scarce commodity in an ever expanding world whose population demands a better standard of living. Water is required for agricultural purposes as well as by industry, in addition to its use by the general population. The recycling of water is an essential component of the circular economy. There is no possibility for the success of a long term economic policy without addressing the problems of natural resources and environmental pollution, which will affect the reuse of materials and products. The current market economy based on a linear model from resource extraction, manufacturing, consumption and waste disposal, has not proved a long term suitable solution, in spite of the substantial efforts made in reducing its environmental impacts. This is largely due to the continuous population growth, in a society that demands high standards of living, thus requiring an ever increasing share of natural resources.

They say that everything that happens, happens for a specific reason and Sebastian Blackwell and Michael Reed will soon come to realize that they are no exception of this age old rule. The events that will inevitably follow, shall entrap Sebastian within the unknown dimensions of his sleeping subconscious and as a result, a door shall be opened. Although not a sound penetrates the infinite darkness, a sound is made just the same. This door however, isn't technically a door at all and yet in the same breath, it is still an opening between the physical and spiritual realms. As for Michael Reed, Sebastian's best friend, his path will cast him down into eternal darkness from which there will be absolutely no return. Doorways are everywhere, even those that shouldn't be there to begin with. Still, just because they shouldn't, doesn't mean that they aren't there and just because we cannot see them, doesn't mean that they don't exist.

This book serves as a great reference for engineering technicians and researchers in a wide range of fields, including emergency management, public safety science, risk management, emergency communication, and transportation optimization. This book carried out researches about the public emergency behavior guidance strategies and methods for major chemical accidents. They put forward the classification model of emergency evacuation events, the selection of public emergency guidance strategies, the quantitative assessment of emergency response risk as well as the characteristics of sub-regional evacuation based on a wide range of theories, including safety engineering, social science, behavioral science, etc. Methods, such as case statistics and analysis, field research as well as modeling and simulation, were applied. Five chapters were covered by the book, including introduction of study background, statistics and analysis of hazardous chemical leakage accidents and emergency evacuation response in China in recent ten years, shelter-in-place risk assessment for high-pressure natural gas wells with hydrogen sulphide, dynamic emergency route planning, and characteristics analysis of sub-regional evacuation.

Tax Free Trade Zones Of The World And In The United States written by Susan Tiefenbrun and has been published by Edward Elgar Publishing this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2012 with Business & Economics categories.
This definitive and comprehensive book, with contributions from world-renowned foreign trade zone expert, the late Walter Diamond, provides an up-to-date guide to the free trade zones and subzones in the United States and around the world. Economic reasons for using free trade zones are explored, encompassing the benefits gained and profits earned, such as exemptions, reductions from customs duties, proximity to foreign export markets, and low-cost processing and packaging of goods designed to lower duties or freight charges. Practical, hard-to-locate data and contact details are provided on every free trade zone in the US, as well as information on the history, growth and types of users in each zone, storage space, transportation access, the cost of user facilities, utilities, communications, labor availability, warehousing features, and enterprise zones within the free trade zone. Tax Free Trade Zones of the World and in the United States will be an invaluable reference tool for a wide-ranging professional audience including: international, multinational and business law firms, tax advisory and finance firms, international sales and marketing executives, import, export and shipping companies, customs brokers and insurance agencies. In addition, it will prove a useful, practical resource for law students focusing on international business and international trade.

The book explains the classification of a set of Walsh functions into distinct self-similar groups and subgroups, where the members of each subgroup possess distinct self-similar structures. The observations on self-similarity presented provide valuable clues to tackling the inverse problem of synthesis of phase filters. Self-similarity is observed in the far-field diffraction patterns of the corresponding self-similar filters. Walsh functions form a closed set of orthogonal functions over a prespecified interval, each function taking merely one constant value (either +1 or −1) in each of a finite number of subintervals into which the entire interval is divided. The order of a Walsh function is equal to the number of zero crossings within the interval. Walsh functions are extensively used in communication theory and microwave engineering, as well as in the field of digital signal processing. Walsh filters, derived from the Walsh functions, have opened up new vistas. They take on values, either 0 or π phase, corresponding to +1 or -1 of the Walsh function value.
