Overview: Treats in a unified way many problems which currently form the object of separate theories.Aims to present a comprehensive view of the general aspects of material behavior.Accessible to a large spectr.This book exposes a number of mathematical models for fracture of growing difficulty. All models are treated in a unified way, based on incremental energy minimization. They differ from each other by the assumptions made on the inelastic part of the total energy, here called the "cohesive energy". Each model describes a specific aspect of material response, and particular care is devote

Overview: Architekturwahrnehmung aus Sicht der Philosophie.Einführung und Theorie der Architekturwahrnehmung.Architekturwahrnehmung als Voraussetzung für die Planung.Includes supplementary material: Was ist Architekturwahrnehmung? Sicherlich ist sie Voraussetzung für praktisches Handeln. Aber was uns in diesem Zusammenhang mehr interessiert: Sie ist auch Voraussetzung von Architekturtheorie. Ist sie einfach die reflektierende Bewusstwerdung der gebauten Umwelt? Oder ist sie ein plötzlich sich offenbarendes Aha-Erlebnis, ein Gewahrwerden der Mauern um uns herum? Gründet sie auf einer Tradition

Overview: PRIMA is a series of workshops on agent computing and multi-agent systems, integrating the activities in Asia and Pacific Rim countries. Agent computing and multi-agent systems are computational systems in which several autonomous or se- autonomous agents interact with each other or work together to perform some set of tasks or satisfy some set of goals. These systems may involve computational agents that are homogeneous or heterogeneous, they may involve activities on the part of agents having common or distinct goals, and they may involve participation on the part of humans and int

Overview: M. B. A. OLDSTONE Viruses are generally studied either because they cause significant human, animal or plant disease or for their utility as materials to probe a basic phenomenon in biology, chemistry, genetics or molecular biology. Arenaviruses are unusually interesting in that they occupy both of these categories. Arenaviruses cause severe human diseases known primarily as the hemor­ rhagic fevers occurring in South and Latin America (Bolivia: Machupo virus and Argentina: Junin virus) and in Africa (Lassa virus). Because such viruses produce profound disability and may kill the per

Overview: Provides insight and instruction on a variety of mastopexy procedures and accompanying types of breast augmentation.Helps the clinician determine the optimal surgery for each individual patient.FeaturBreast augmentation paired with mastopexy is often regarded as a challenging procedure since it is essentially two surgeries in one. Because of the complexity of the dual procedure, as well as the careful planning required, many doctors avoid performing these surgeries together, instead preferring their patient to undergo two separate surgeries.These two procedures can be safely performe
