BOOKS with Alphabet A (Aa, Ab,Ac, Ad, Ae…... )

Overview: This series of books, which is published at the rate of about one per year, addresses fundamental problems in materials science. The contents cover a broad range of topics from small clusters of atoms to engineering materials and involve chemistry, physics, and engineering, with length scales ranging from Ångstromsup to millimeters. The emphasis is on basic science rather than on applications. Each book focuses on a single area ofcurrent interest and brings together leading experts to give an up-to-date discussion of their work and the work ofothers. Each article contains enough refe

Overview: Dieser Buchtitel ist Teil des Digitalisierungsprojekts Springer Book Archives mit Publikationen, die seit den Anfängen des Verlags von 1842 erschienen sind. Der Verlag stellt mit diesem Archiv Quellen für die historische wie auch die disziplingeschichtliche Forschung zur Verfügung, die jeweils im historischen Kontext betrachtet werden müssen. Dieser Titel erschien in der Zeit vor 1945 und wird daher in seiner zeittypischen politisch-ideologischen Ausrichtung vom Verlag nicht beworben.978-3-642-89294-3978-3-642-91150-7

Overview: Identifies a new limit to the CP violation of the R-parity-violating supersymmetry using the linear programming method.Revises the two-loop level Barr-Zee type RPV contribution to the fermion EDM.Prov.In this thesis the author discusses the phenomenology of supersymmetric models by means of experimental data set analysis of the electric dipole moment. There is an evaluation of the elementary processes contributing to the electric dipole moments within R-parity-violating supersymmetry, which call for higher-order perturbative computations..A new method based on linear programming is d

Overview: Merges classical concepts of plant cell biology with the recent findings of molecular studies and real-world applications.Shows that plant cell biology evolved from the continuous and intensive dialog.The aim of this volume is to merge classical concepts of plant cell biology with the recent findings of molecular studies and real-world applications in a form attractive not only to specialists in the realm of fundamental research, but also to breeders and plant producers. Four sections deal with the control of development, the control of stress tolerance, the control of metabolic acti

Overview: In early 1986, one of us (D.M.S.) was constructing an artificial intelligence system to design algorithms, and the other (A.P.A.) was getting started in program transformations research. We shared an office, and exchanged a few papers on the systematic development of algorithms from specifications. Gradually we realized that we were trying to solve some of the same problems. And so, despite radical differences between ourselves in research approaches, we set out together to see what we could learn from these papers. That‘s how this book started: a couple of graduate students trying t

Overview: Modelltheoretisch gestützte Empfehlungen für eine anreizoptimale VertragsgestaltungCaroline Schäfer analysiert die aus einer langfristigen Kooperation mit wechselseitigen Abhängigkeiten resultierende Double-Moral-Hazard-Anreizproblematik und entwickelt darauf basierend für die Energiedienstleistung Energie-Performance-Contracting spezifische Anreizvertragsmodelle, welche eine Teilung des gemeinsam realisierten Einsparergebnisses vorsehen. Die modelltheoretisch abgeleiteten Gestaltungsempfehlungen für eine anreizoptimale Vertragsgestaltung sind leicht auch auf ähnlich gelagerte Dienst

Overview: Deutschland, Japan und die USAWie wird kollektives Handeln zwischen staatlichen Akteuren möglich? Diese zentrale Frage, der sich die IB seit langem widmet, ist der Ausgangspunkt der Untersuchung. Als Antwort wird ein Theoriemodell entworfen, das versucht, konstruktivistische und diskurstheoretische Einsichten zu verbinden. Nur durch die Analyse der Kultur des internationalen Systems, so das Argument, kann die Frage nach Erfolg und Misserfolg der Zusammenarbeit von Staaten beantwortet werden. Als Fallbeispiel dient die Konstruktion der Allianz gegen den Terror nach dem 11. September 2

Overview: The available books are very technical and written by scientists for scientists, whereas most archaeology students have a background in the Humanities, and find that approach daunting.Aims to explain .Geophysics operations in archaeology have become well known through exposure on television. However, the technique is presented as the action of specialists and something of a mystery, where people walk about with strange contraptions, and results appear from a computer. This is not the case, however. Some scientific knowledge is needed in order to understand how the machines work and w

Overview: The title of our collection is owed to Hannah Arendt herself. Writing to Karl Jaspers on August 6, 1955, she spoke of how she had only just begun to really love the world and expressed her desire to testify to that love in the title of what came to be published as The Human Condition: "Out of gratitude, I want to call my book about political theories Arnor Mundi. "t In retrospect, it was fitting that amor mundi, love of the world, never became the title of only one of Arendt‘s studies, for it is the theme which permeates all of her thought. The purpose of this volume‘s a- ticles is t

Overview: Addresses a number of scholarly communities including Arthurian scholars, medievalists, and Victorian scholars.Extends the study of Arthurian characters by focusing on female characters via a feminist.This book investigates adaptations of The Lady of Shalott and Elaine of Astolat in Victorian and post-Victorian popular culture to explore their engagement with medievalism, social constructions of gender, and representations of the role of art in society.
