Il Villaggio dei Ding è un pugno di case di paglia disteso lungo l'antico letto del Fiume Giallo. Il suo è un equilibrio che sembra immutabile, ma negli anni '90 tutto è sommerso dall'"ondata rosso sangue": la spregiudicata campagna del governo cinese per promuovere la vendita del sangue tra i contadini, che aderiscono in massa con il sogno di costruire case di mattoni e nuovi pollai. Mentre alcuni si arricchiscono con questa compravendita, altri si ammalano di una strana "febbre": l'AIDS....

This book thoroughly analyzes the crucial role of supersonic separator technology in addressing the challenges of environmental degradation and climate change, particularly highlighting its importance in the dehydration and decarbonization of natural gas. Employing computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modeling and experimental research, along with meticulous data processing and image presentation, the authors extensively investigate the complex phenomena of flow field characteristics and hea...

La muerte recorre las calles de la otrora próspera aldea Ding. Sus habitantes desaparecen igual que las hojas de los árboles en otoño. Una extraña fiebre se lleva sus vidas. Es la enfermedad de quienes hace ocho años vendieron su sangre por unas pocas monedas. Narrada por el pequeño Xiao Qiang, esta novela, de una sobrecogedora belleza, nos adentra en la historia de la aldea Ding, una de tantas afectadas por el escándalo de la sangre contaminada de la provincia china de Henan

This book focuses on the environmental property of minerals including mineralogical record of environmental changes, mineralogical influence on the environmental quality, mineralogical evaluation of the environment, mineralogical processing of environmental pollutants and interaction between minerals and microbes. Understanding of the environmental property of minerals is a good supplement to the traditional concept of “mineral”.By demonstrating plenty of case studies with easy-to-...

华人文坛独一无二的奇书，作者用半个世纪积累的日记和诗词，一步一个脚印地解密自己怎么从街头混混，自学成翻译；从卑微小工，折腾成华商；只有小学文凭的他又是怎样忝列蜚声中外的作家协会群体的。书中一些章节曾在网上试读，快人快语，自黑不怕丢丑，接地气，不少读者被感动得热泪盈眶，纷纷留言和转发。有读者情不自禁地来信:"我大学毕业后工作受挫，心灰意冷，看到严丁先生这么大岁数才开始自学，白手起家，顿时为自己的躺平羞愧，You Raise Me Up。"一诗词协会秘书长感动地说:"要将此书作为传家宝，用其考埸受挫和商场翻身的现身说法，激励我的儿孙。

This book is mainly focused on the global impulsive synchronization of complex dynamical networks with different types of couplings, such as general state coupling, nonlinear state coupling, time-varying delay coupling, derivative state coupling, proportional delay coupling and distributed delay coupling. Studies on impulsive synchronization of complex dynamical networks have attracted engineers and scientists from various disciplines, such as electrical engineering, mechanical engineering...

The key to the solution of geological hazards such as Karst water inrush and mud burst in tunnel lies in the accurate prediction or detection of Karst and groundwater. By means of on-site monitoring, theoretical analysis and indoor simulation experiments, the authors conduct in-depth research on the characteristics of water-bearing media and their mechanism of action, and explored the relevance of "Karst morphology", "Karst groundwater" and "fractal characteristics". An evaluation model of...
