Overview: Microcharacterization of materials is a rapidly advancing field. Among the many electron and ion probe techniques, the cathodoluminescence mode of an electron probe instrument has reached a certain maturity, which is reflected by an increas­ ing number of publications in this field. The rapid rate of progress in applications of cathodoluminescence techniques in characterizing inorganic solids has been especially noticeable in recent years. The main purpose of the book is to outline the applications of cath­ odoluminescence techniques in the assessment of optical and electronic proper

Overview: Sipke D.

Overview: This book examines the viability of non-provocative defence - the controversial idea that defensive military policies and practices reduce the risk of wars and provide a viable basis for defending a society should war break out. Drawing on case studies from Europe, the 1991 Persian Gulf War, and Asia-Pacific, the author concludes that non-provocative defence concepts remain relevant and that they can help in deterring, conducting, and settling wars.978-1-349-41878-7978-0-230-59637-5Series ISSN 2633-5964 Series E-ISSN 2633-5972

Overview: Invoking the machinery of Control Theory to control a real-world plant means, on the basis of available a priori knowledge of the plant, design­ ing/selecting a feasible controller accomplishing the control objective. A priori knowledge about the plant is normally represented as a mathemat­ ical model, given by physical laws or measurement data. Such a model is inevitably uncertain, due to measurement errors, simplified models of natural laws, neglected dynamics, and the desire to get a model tractable for further computations. Control of Uncertain Systems is therefore an im­ portant
