Overview: Technology extrapolation of relevant powertrain systems for 2040.Simulations of 57 vehicle variants are carried out.Comprehensive results tables are available.This book deals with the simulative prediction of efficiency and CO.2.-emissions of future powertrain systems for the year 2040. For this purpose, a suitable simulation environment is first created. This is followed by a technology extrapolation of all relevant powertrain systems, for example: combustion engines, electric drives, fuel cells as well as all relevant additional components. These components are then used to build 5

Overview: Investigates and assesses residual stress phenomena in tempered glass.Optical anisotropy effects can occur in building envelopes made of tempered glass.Reviews methods for measuring anisotropy effects.Optical anisotropy effects can occur in building envelopes made of tempered glass. The visual effect has been neglected in the evaluation of the building product and increasingly leads to disputes between the parties involved. This thesis extends the state of knowledge on the cause and perception of optical anisotropic effects and presents a concept for measuring and evaluating them in flat

Overview: The conquest of Serbia was only one of the goals of the Austro-Hungarian Empire in the First World War; beyond this lay the desire to control much of South-East Europe. Employing previously unseen sources, Marvin Fried provides the first complete analysis of the Monarchy‘s war aims in the Balkans and tells the story of its imperialist ambitions.978-1-349-47143-0978-1-137-35901-8

Overview: Presents the history of endocavitary ultrasound.Gathers contributions by leading European experts.Reports on normal and pathological ultrasound scans of the ano-rectum.This book brings together lessons learned in the clinical use of anorectal endosonography and manometry in paediatrics. In contrast to adult medicine, where they are virtually indispensable for specialists dealing with colo-proctology, in paediatrics endoanal ultrasound and anorectal manometry are still the prerogative of very few international centres. This book collects the results of a Workshop organised at the Paed

Overview: The 3-volume set LNCS 14583-14585 constitutes the proceedings of the 22nd International Conference on Applied Cryptography and Network Security, ACNS 2024, which took place in  Abu Dhabi, UAE, in March 2024. .The 54 full papers included in these proceedings were carefully reviewed and selected from 230 submissions. They have been organized in topical sections as follows: .Part I: Cryptographic protocols; encrypted data; signatures; .Part II: Post-quantum; lattices; wireless and networks; privacy and homomorphic encryption; symmetric crypto; .Part III: Blockchain; smart infrastructure

Overview: Nominated by Hokkaido.University as an outstanding Ph.D. thesis.efficient catalytic systems for biomass conversion that are attractive in the.future of the chemical industry as well as sustainable soc.The topic of this thesis is catalytic conversion ofnon-food, abundant, and renewable biomass such as cellulose and chitin tochemicals. In biorefinery, chemical transformation of polymers to valuablecompounds has attracted worldwide interest for building sustainable societies.First, the current situation of this hot research area has been summarized wellin the general introduction of the

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.978-3-662-24526-2978-3-662-26671-7

Overview: Provides an advanced overview of the latest evidence-based current and emerging treatment recommendations.Written and edited by leading experts within the field of rheumatology and systemic lupus eryt.This book will provide an introduction to the epidemiology, etiology and pathogenesis of the condition while also exploring the classification, diagnosis, and current and emerging therapies for systemic lupus erythematosus. Systemic lupus erythematosus is an autoimmune disease in which the body‘s immune system mistakenly attacks healthy tissue. It can affect the skin, joints, kidneys, b

Overview: Ein Paradigmenwechsel im Umgang mit ArmutDas Buch bietet einen fundierten Einblick in die international viel diskutierte und neuerdings auch in Deutschland lebhaft verfolgte Resilienzforschung. „Resilienz“ bedeutet „seelische Widerstandsfähigkeit“ in belasteten und risikobehafteten Lebenssituationen. Aufwachsen in Armut ist ein zentrales Entwicklungsrisiko für Kinder..Wichtigste Erkenntnis ist, dass „Resilienz“ durch pädagogisches und sozialpädagogisches Handeln gefördert werden kann. Bisher fehlte jedoch eine theoretisch fundierte Begründung und eine substanzielle fachliche Erörteru

Overview: Focuses on various adaptive and dynamic techniques to optimize processor power and performance..Includes information on the underlying process technology for adaptive designs..Addresses the different The integrated circuit has evolved tremendously in recent years as Moore’s Law has enabled exponentially more devices and functionality to be packed onto a single piece of silicon. In some ways however, these highly integrated circuits, of which microprocessors are the flagship example, have become victims of their own success. Despite dramatic reductions in the switching energy of the t

Overview: System identification is a powerful tool in engineering. Its various methods in the frequency and in the time domain have been extensively discussed in earlier .CISM. courses. The aim of this course is to describe the state of the art in specific application areas, such as estimation of eigenquantities (in the aerospace industry, in civil engineering, in naval engineering etc.), noise source detection, fault detection by investigation of dynamic properties, such as machine sound characteristics, and the identification of the dynamic behaviour of flow induced systems (e.g. aerolastic

Overview: Adopts an innovative approach that stratifies the historical processes of Chinese traditional culture.Delves into the essence and basic structure of Chinese traditional culture.Offers a new perspectiv.Chinese traditions of Confucianism, Daoism, and Buddhism have a profoundly philosophical dimension. The three traditions are frequently referred to as three paths of moral teachings.
