Overview: This book covers methods adopted for undertaking the design and construction of civil engineering projects. The options for separate design and construction are compared with design and build projects, construction management, and man­ agement contracting. The salient differences are shown between the various con­ ditions of contract used. The roles of the engineer, employer‘s project manager or his representative under different forms of contract are compared. Requirements for the production of contract documents, specifications, tendering procedures and choice of contractor are set

Overview: First monograph presenting cardinality theory of fuzzy sets with triangular norms, including its scalar and fuzzy streams.Self-contained, systematic presentation equipped with many examplesCounting is one of the basic elementary mathematical activities. It comes with two complementary aspects: to determine the number of elements of a set - and to create an ordering between the objects of counting just by counting them over. For finite sets of objects these two aspects are realized by the same type of num­ bers: the natural numbers. That these complementary aspects of the counting pro

Overview: Brings together a collection of scholars celebrating John Tomer’s contributions.Discusses the latest research in behavioural economics.Enriches course delivery, providing with approach to economic andJohn Tomer was a leading intellectual figure in behavioural economics, making distinct contributions to the theory of the firm, social economy, choice theory, and government policy. His underlying methodology as an economist was to incorporate different disciplinary approaches to the subject at hand, whilst maintaining an underlying respect and understanding of how and why humans behave

Overview: A recently discovered biological entity attracting growing interest from academics worldwide.Plays key roles in normal physiological processes whilst aberrant biosynthesis can lead, or contribute to, This book puts hydrogen sulfide in context with other gaseous mediators such as nitric oxide and carbon monoxide, reviews the available mechanisms for its biosynthesis and describes its physiological and pathophysiological roles in a wide variety of disease states. Hydrogen sulfide has recently been discovered to be a naturally occurring gaseous mediator in the body. Over a relatively sh

Overview: Membrane interaction is a large research area involving various disciplines. A symposium entitled "Cell and Model Membrane Interactions" which took place in Boston, MA during the 155th American Chemical Society Meeting, April 25, 1990, focused on membrane adhesion and fusion. The topics were explored in studies involving lipids, virus envelopes and cell membranes. Especially discussed, were the roles of polymers, lipids, and proteins on these membrane interactions. Fusion of membrane is an important molecular event which plays a pivotal role in many dynamic cellular processes, such a

Overview: Provides a multifaceted analysis of modern propaganda and disinformation from a political, technical, legal and broad sociological viewpoint.Based on theoretical and empirically-based studies in the cDisinformation has recently become a salient issue, not just for researchers but for the media, politicians, and the general public as well. Changing circumstances are a challenge for system and societal resilience; disinformation is also a challenge for governments, civil society, and individuals. Thus, this book focuses on the post-truth era and the online environment, which has change

Overview: Presents recent research in Cyber Security Intelligence and Analytics.Contains proceedings of the 2021 International Conference on Cyber Security Intelligence and Analytics (CSIA 2021), held at ShenyaThis book presents the outcomes of the 2021 International Conference on Cyber Security Intelligence and Analytics (CSIA 2021), an international conference dedicated to promoting novel theoretical and applied research advances in the interdisciplinary field of cyber security, particularly focusing on threat intelligence, analytics, and countering cybercrime. The conference provides a foru

Overview: How THIS BOOK DIFFERS This book is about the calculus. What distinguishes it, however, from other books is that it uses the pocket calculator to illustrate the theory. A computation that requires hours of labor when done by hand with tables is quite inappropriate as an example or exercise in a beginning calculus course. But that same computation can become a delicate illustration of the theory when the student does it in seconds on his calculator. t Furthermore, the student‘s own personal involvement and easy accomplishment give hi~ reassurance and en­ couragement. The machine is lik

Overview: Includes supplementary material: .This bookconstitutes revised selected papers from the 4th International Workshop onClinical Image-Based Procedures, CLIP 2015, held in conjunction with MICCAI2015 in Munich, Germany, in October 2015. .The 15 papers presented in thisvolume were carefully reviewed and selected from 22 submissions. CLIPfocuses on translational research; therefore, the goal of the works presentedin this workshop is to bring basic research methods closer to the clinicalpractice. A highlight of this workshop is the subject of strategies forpersonalized medicine to enhance

Overview: Every three years early Spring witnesses the convening of a small group of neuroscientists from many parts of the world. They are devoted to the study of acetylcholine, the oldest of the known neurotransmitters. To assess the level of knowledge, to take stock of the still unsolved problems, to evaluate the practical meaning of their findings, the cholinologists first met in 1969 in the eerie atmosphere of a snow-covered Swedish forest, the second in the Swiss Alps, the third facing the surf and foam of the Paci­ fic waves. Finally in March 1980 Florence, her trees burgeoning in the m

Overview: Prof. Leon Mestel has been an inspiration to many to study the role of magnetism in the Cosmos. To mark the occasion of his retin‘ment from the University of Sussex after 43 years in astrophysics, several of his friends and former students decided to hold an advanced research workshop in his honour. NATO agreed to finance this venture which was held at the Institute of Astronomy at Cambridge. The scientific organizing committee was J. Landstreet, D. Lynden-Bell, F. Pacini, M.A. Rud0rman and N.O. Weiss and most leading experts on Cosmical magnetism agreed to come. We are particularly
