Overview: This book addresses the mathematical aspects of semiconductor modeling, with particular attention focused on the drift-diffusion model. The aim is to provide a rigorous basis for those models which are actually employed in practice, and to analyze the approximation properties of discretization procedures. The book is intended for applied and computational mathematicians, and for mathematically literate engineers, who wish to gain an understanding of the mathematical framework that is pertinent to device modeling. The latter audience will welcome the introduction of hydrodynamic and e

Overview: Synthesis of a wide range of materials from multiple subdisciplines within ecology.Focus on working at large scale with “need to know” screening of ideas.Provision of heuristic ‘working model’ schematThis is an ecology textbook focused on key principles that underpin research and management at the landscape scale. It covers (1) agents of pattern (the physical template, biotic processes, and disturbance regimes); (2) scale and pattern (why scale matters, how to ‘scale’ with data, and inferences using landscape pattern metrics); and (3) implications of pattern (for metapopulations, com

Overview: Offers a brief introduction to the general-purpose finite element program MSC Marc, specialized software for nonlinear problems.Provides simple examples that can easily be related to finite element co.This book offers a brief introduction to the general-purpose finite element program MSC Marc, focusing on providing simple examples, often single-element problems, which can easily be related to the theory that is discussed in finite element lectures. As such, it is an ideal companion book to classical introductory courses on the finite element method. MSC Marc is a specialized program

Overview: Since the last symposium on "Neuronal Mechanisms of Hearing" held in Prague in 1980 and published in the volume of the same name (J. Syka and L. Aitkin, Eds. , Plenum Press, 1981), remarkable progress has been achieved in the understanding of the auditory system. A variety of new ideas and new methods have emerged. This progress can be easily documented by comparing the volume based on the 1980 Symposium with the program for the 1987 Symposium. For example, there were 45 contributions to auditory physiology in each symposium but there were 27 contributions focusing on anatomy in 1987

Overview: Provides new insights into the mechanisms of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi-induced stress tolerance.Describes agro-ecological perspectives of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi in sustainable crop productionThis book covers the fundamentals of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) and higher plant symbiosis with potential implications in crop production. It provides new insights into our understanding of the mechanisms of AMF-mediated plant growth regulation and stress tolerance covering the most recent biochemical, physiological, molecular, environmental, and ecological studies. Focusing on A

Overview: Foregrounds the experiences, emotions and perspectives of mothers in order to better understand how Australian motherhood has developed historically and contemporaneously.Utilises a feminist perspecti.This collection defines the field of maternal studies in Australia for the first time. Leading motherhood researchers explore how mothering has evolved across Australian history as well as the joys and challenges of being a mother today. The contributors cover pregnancy, birth, relationships, childcare, domestic violence, time use, work, welfare, policy and psychology, from a diverse ra

Overview: Die Volkspartei - ein untergehendes Modell?Sind die ostdeutschen Parteien wirklich anders? Entfernen sie sich gar vom westdeutschen Standardmodell der Volkspartei? Um diese Fragen jenseits aller politischen Polemik empirisch klären zu können, wird in dieser Studie zunächst das wissenschaftliche Konzept der Volkspartei in seiner Merkmalskombinatorik rekonstruiert, rückgebunden an die methodischen Anforderungen der Typusanwendung und von den so genannten "neuen Parteitypen" abgegrenzt. Der so entstandene empirisch operationalisierbare Merkmalskatalog erbrachte für die Analyse sachsenan

Overview: Selection of the best papers of experts from geotechnology and applied mathematics.Deals with the advanced mathematical methods required for the solution of challenging geomechanical problemsGeomechanics is the mechanics of geomaterials, i.e. soils and rocks, and deals with fascinating problems such as settlements, stability of excavations, tunnels and offshore platforms, landslides, earthquakes and liquefaction. This edited book presents recent mathematical and computational tools and models to describe and simulate such problems in Geomechanics and Geotechnical Engineering. It incl

Overview: Offers an exhaustive history of post-independence Trinidad and Tobago.Examines the culture, society and politics of IndoTrinidadians as part of the whole, as opposed to their representation as an alieThis book offers a history of post-Independence Trinidad and Tobago. It explores how culture and politics have operated in tandem to shape the society. Drawing on a wide range of sources, including literature, government reports, official statistics, the press and the Carnival, it critically analyses the popular conception of creolization as the driving force in modern Trinidad and Tobag

Overview: In the late 1940s investigators observed that mice given supralethai doses of total body irradiation were protected by infusion of viable spleen or marrow cells following irradiation, and that this was accomplished by hemopoietic reconsti­ tution with donor cells as proven using genetic markers. If a similar approach could be applied to humans, it should be possible to treat leukemia patients with any dose of chemoradiotherapy as far as nonmarrow toxicity permitted, and then rescue them by marrow transplantation. Early clinical attempts were gen­ erally unsuccessful, mostly due to a

Overview: There is ample evidence in the visualization community that individual differences matter. These prior works highlight various personality traits and cognitive abilities that can modulate the use of the visualization systems and demonstrate a measurable influence on speed, accuracy, process, and attention. Perhaps the most important implication of this body of work is that we can use individual differences as a mechanism for estimating when a design is effective or to identify when people may struggle with visualization designs.These effects can have a critical impact on consequentia
