In Animals in the World, renowned Aristotle scholar Pierre Pellegrin attempts to demonstrate that Aristotle, by proposing an original version of natural perfection, opposes the whole of the Greek tradition. Nature is perfect, not only in its harmony of a complete and well-organized whole, but also because it brings together functionally perfect individuals.

Anatomy, Age and Ecology of High Mountain Plants in Ladakh, the Western Himalaya
Anatomy, Age and Ecology of High Mountain Plants in Ladakh, the Western Himalaya by Jiří Doležal
English | PDF | 2018 | 618 Pages | ISBN : 3319786970 | 173.14 MB
This aesthetically unique book combines ecological, morphological and anatomical, as well as phylogenetic studies on plant material in a largely unexplored dry mountain region above the timberline. It offers the first comparative analysis of hundreds of plants - annuals, perennial herbs and dwarf shrubs - in an area of 87,000 km2 at altitudes from 2600 to 6150 m above sea level in the Western Himalaya. Characteristic landscape pictures of all major vegetation types and maps show at which locations and altitudes the individual species of vascular plants are distributed, while macroscopic plant pictures and plant age are related to high-quality micro-sections and micro-photographs.

Advanced Model Predictive Control for Autonomous Marine Vehicles
Advanced Model Predictive Control for Autonomous Marine Vehicles
English | 2023 | ISBN: 3031193539 | 356 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 30 MB
This book provides a comprehensive overview of marine control system design related to underwater robotics applications. In particular, it presents novel optimization-based model predictive control strategies to solve control problems appearing in autonomous underwater vehicle applications. These novel approaches bring unique features, such as constraint handling, prioritization between multiple design objectives, optimal control performance, and robustness against disturbances and uncertainties, into the control system design. They therefore form a more general framework to design marine control systems and can be widely applied.
