Abstract

First published in 1992. Aluminium is a relatively new material, first used on a commercial basis just over 100 years ago. Today it has taken its place alongside other traditional materials as an established building element. In this variable reference source, John Lane discusses the history and development of aluminium usage in the building industry. Its characteristics of strength, lightness and durability, coupled with easy formability, make it and ideal medium for this market. The first section of this book is a general discussion of the metal, covering such areas as its properties, alloys, fabrication, joining and finishing. The second part details the aspects of aluminium which are of particular importance in construction, while the final section highlights some of its major uses in architecture and building. The text is amply illustrated with diagrams and photographs, and the appendices provide the reader with comprehensive details of relevant standards and contact addresses.

Abstract

The overall purpose of this monograph is to integrate and critically evaluate the existing literature in the area of optimal joint savings population programs. The existing diverse presentations are all seen to be discussions within a unified framework. The central problem is to compare the desirability of alternative inter-temporal sequences of total savings and population sizes. Of critical importance is whether one regards persons as the fundamental moral entities or whether one takes Sidgwick's viewpoint that something good being the result of one's action is the baSic reason for dOing anything. The latter viewpoint is consistent with defining a complete social preference ordering over these alternative sequences. Since part of one's interest is to evaluate the consequences of various ethical beliefs a com­ parative study of several such orderings is presented; in particular the Mill-Wolfe average utilitarian, and Sidgwick-Meade classical utilitarian) formulations. A possible problem with the social preference ordering approach is that the ordering may indicate the desirability of increasing the population size, if this increases the total amount of good, even though people may receive less than the welfare subsistence level of consumption. However, there are other ways of evaluating actions and, if persons are the fundamental moral entities, then perhaps these actions should be evaluated by their implications for the rights of individuals i. e. people Who are currently alive, people who one can predict will exist in the future (e. g.

Abstract

Ce catalogue fait le point sur les nouveaux et récents travaux de Sigmar Polke. Sigmar Polke, est né en Silésie en 1941, il a étudié l'art à la Staatliche Kunstakademie à Düsseldorf de 1961 à 67. Au début de sa carrière, les travaux de S.Polke ont souvent été attribués à la tendance "Pop art européen". Vers les années septante, S.Polke explore la relation entre photographie et peinture. Ses voyages au Pakistan et en Afghanistan ont été utilisé comme source d'inspiration pour ses photographies manipulées et travaux en peinture. En 1980, S.Polke se lance dans des expérimentations avec des matériaux et des éléments chimiques, des mélanges de pigments traditionnels avec des solvants, des résines...Ces expériences l'entraîne vers une peinture de l'abstraction. Ces vingt dernières années, S.Polke a réalisé un certain nombre de travaux décrits comme "allegorical history paintings"
