Australian Metropolis A Planning History (Planning, History and Environment Series)


Free Download Australian Metropolis: A Planning History (Planning, History and Environment Series) By Robert Freestone (editor), Stephen Hamnett (editor)
1999 | 240 Pages | ISBN: 0419258108 | PDF | 4 MB
The Australian Metropolis splendidly fills a huge gap in the literature on Australian cities. It is the definitive account of the history of Australian cities and the crucial role which planning has played in their genesis and growth. Spanning two centuries from the very beginning until the present day, it will instantly become a standard work ‘ Professor Sir Peter Hall, author of Cities in Civilisation..The Australian Metropolis provides a single-volume introduction to the development of urban planning. It fills the need for a convenient, initial resource for anyone interested in the broad evolutionary sweep of modern planning. By setting the evolution of Australian planning within its broader societal context, The Australian Metropolis presents a balanced appraisal of the positive, negative and ambivalent legacies resulting from attempts to plan Australia’s major cities. This book is the winner of two Royal Australian Planning Institute Awards for Planning Excellence in 2000/2001, including the New South Wales’ Division Prize for Planning Scholarship in February 2001.

Barbarossa Planning for Operational Failure


Free Download John D. Snively, "Barbarossa: Planning for Operational Failure"
English | 2014 | ASIN: B008U28ZF2, B06XGPV2NV | EPUB | pages: 25 | 0.4 mb
The German planning process for the 1941 invasion of Soviet Russia is analyzed through the presentation of the major plans developed from July 1940 until June 1941. The final plan is then critiqued within the context of the applicable Principles of War. The planning process was characterized by significant disagreements between Hitler, the German High Command and the Army High Command. The major points of contention relate to the selection of primary objectives and force deployment patterns. A set of conclusions is presented which argues that the planning process was faulty due to a number of assumptions which were generally held by the officers who were involved in the process.

Motion Control and Path Planning of Marine Vehicles


Free Download Motion Control and Path Planning of Marine Vehicles by Bowen Xing and Bing Li
English | PDF | 2024 | 412 Pages | ISBN : 3036597808 | 38.3 MB
With the continuous improvement of artificial intelligence and sensing technologies, the marine field is ushering in unprecedented change. In this wave of change, the design and application of marine transportation have become significant tools for promoting the marine economy and environmental protection. Motion control and path planning have become key technologies to ensure that marine transportation vehicles operate efficiently and intelligently in complex marine environments. Therefore, this Special Issue focuses on motion control and path planning for marine vehicles and explores how autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs), surface unmanned vehicles (USVs), and deep-sea landers (DSLVs) can play a key role in the oceans through optimization strategies and new approaches. We will delve into the application of intelligent and autonomous motion control systems on marine vehicles, and the innovation and optimization of path-planning techniques. In this Special Issue, we brought together the latest results from experts and researchers, aiming to share their cutting-edge research in motion control and path planning for marine vehicles. We expect that the presentation of these papers will provide new ideas and solutions to promote marine science and technology development and application. Finally, we would like to convey our most profound gratitude to the staff of MDPI Books and the editorial team of Marine Science and Engineering, in particular the assistant editors, talented authors, and diligent reviewers.

Level: Intermediate | Genre: eLearning | Language: English
Have you ever wanted to see strategic planning frameworks applied to real situations? Would you find it helpful to see an integrated strategic case study for an organization like yours? Go more deeply into the strategic planning process by diving into three real-world cases studies. Join instructor Mike Figliuolo as he shares examples from a consumer goods business, a professional services company, and a nonprofit organization. For each case he shares five key aspects of the strategy planning process: defining the strategic environment, determining how to compete, evaluating and prioritizing opportunities, assessing the initiative portfolio, and organizing and allocating resources. Use these thorough examples to think through how you would apply strategic planning to your own organization.
