Overview: The Editors have pleasure in presenting a further volume in the se­ ries to our international audience. Perhaps the most significant event of the passing year has been the publication by the IAEA of its study of the prob­ lem of continuing radiation protection in the lands surrounding Chernobyl. The major international project undertaken in 1990 and reported in 1991 is worth reading, not only for its assessment of how radiation protection intervention should be applied de facto in accident conditions, but equally for its account of the modern view of the philosophy of radiation prote

Overview: Employs both conventional and sophisticated efficiency techniques to assess banks’ performance after fifty years of nationalization.Analyses the banking market structure under which Indian banks operaThis book assesses the performance of banks in India over the past several decades, and discusses their current status after fifty years of nationalization. The performance of different categories of banks is evaluated by employing both the traditional ratio analysis and more sophisticated efficiency techniques. The book also explores the market conditions under which Indian banks operat

Overview: Scientific papers that bring out latest research on atmospheric and oceanic meso scale processes.Top scientists from various countries around the world have contributed.Understanding, modeling and prediction of mesoscale processes in the atmosphere, ocean and environmental systems, have gained importance in the last decade or so. This is because of the availability of more sophisticated observational systems, provided by technological innovations and more realistic simulations using advanced dynamical models...This volume contains many original findings on mesoscale processes in atmo

Overview: Introduces a method to divide layer arrangements in additive manufacturing.Divides fabrication problems in AM into two types: solvable and unsolvable .Written in the form of questions and concise answ.This is the first book on Additive Manufacturing that provides an original theory for the entire subject.  It is the culmination of a search for the root cause of manufacturing problems that occur in practice.  The author finds a reason why there are only two types of layer arrangement for manufacturing products and divides fabrication problems in additive manufacturing into two types:

Overview: .This book scrutinizes pervasive games from a technological perspective, focusing on the sub-domain of games that satisfy the criteria that they make use of virtual game elements. In the computer game industry, the use of a game engine to build games is common, but current game engines do not support pervasive games. Since the computer game industry is already rich with game engines, this book investigates: (i) if a game engine can be repurposed to stage pervasive games; (ii) if features describing a would-be pervasive game engine can be identified; (iii) using those features, if an

Overview: Eine empirische politikwissenschaftliche Studie zur Erklärung von Akzeptanz.Daniela Strüngmann entwickelt ein integratives Legitimitätsmodell, mit dem sie die Akzeptanz öffentlicher Verwaltung bei den Bürgern erklärt. Anhand eines Mehrmethodenansatzes gewinnt sie aus der Empirie eine Typologie von Akzeptanztypen und untersucht Einflussfaktoren wie bspw. Behördenkontakte, Einstellungen im sozialen Umfeld oder Medienberichte sowie ihr Zusammenspiel. Es zeigt sich, dass die Bewertung der Verwaltung nicht auf ihr negatives Image verkürzt werden kann. Überdies wird deutlich, dass die Eins
