"'What does the landscape architect actually do as a designer?' The authors of this book investigate this question, which only seems easy - and address some fundamental ideas about design in landscape architecture: What resources are available for designing open spaces? How is i…
""What does the landscape architect actually do as a design?"" The authors investigate this seemingly simple question: How are locations and spaces created in the open air, how are paths routed and boundaries set, how are hard and soft materials used? Drawing on practical and th…
This Tutorial Text focuses on the optics and detector aspects of infrared system design. It introduces the terminology, processes, and instrument design techniques available to engineers today. Design examples are based on real problems investigated by the author during his 30 y…
