Physics of Societal Issues

by Peter M. Schwarz (Author)

This volume presents a rich diversity of case studies that showcase applications of geomechanics to hydrocarbon exploration and field development, reservoir stimulation, contemporary tectonics and subsurface fluid flow. The papers provide a representative snapshot of the exciting state of geomechanics and establish it firmly as a flourishing subdiscipline of geology that merits broadest exposure across the academic and corporate geosciences.

This book uses an interdisciplinary approach to explain the complex issue of scientific and technological innovations largely based on intelligent computing.

This book contains the Proceedings of the International Conference on Robot Ethics, held in Lisbon on October 23 and 24, 2015. The conference provided a multidisciplinary forum for discussing central and evolving issues concerning safety and ethics that have arisen in various contexts where robotic technologies are being applied.
