Overview: This book describes the classical aspects of the variational calculus which are of interest to analysts, geometers and physicists alike. Volume 1 deals with the for­ mal apparatus of the variational calculus and with nonparametric field theory, whereas Volume 2 treats parametric variational problems as well as Hamilton­ Jacobi theory and the classical theory of partial differential equations of first ordel;. In a subsequent treatise we shall describe developments arising from Hilbert‘s 19th and 20th problems, especially direct methods and regularity theory. Of the classical variation

Overview: Is written by internationally leading experts in this new emerging field.Gives a cutting-edge review of novel innovative application areas: quantum systems, soft matter systems, complex networks.Expla..The book summarizes the state-of-the-art of research on control of self-organizing nonlinear systems with contributions from leading international experts in the field. The first focus concerns recent methodological developments including control of networks and of noisy and time-delayed systems. As a second focus, the book features emerging concepts of application including control of

Overview: Nominated by Tsinghua University as an outstanding Ph.D. thesis.Reveals the significance of charge transfer process at the anode/electrolyte interface.Reports folded-graphene as the ultrafast and highThis book focuses on the development of high-performance carbon electrodes for sodium ion batteries (SIBs). By proposing folded-graphene as the high-density cathode with excellent rate capability, it provides insight into the interplay between oxygen functional groups and folded texture. It also highlights the superiority of ether electrolytes matching with carbon anodes, which are shown

Overview: Demonstrates optimal board composition by including directors with specific characteristics and experiences.Provides a suggestion for improving the reporting quality of family-controlled firms.Elabora.This book expands on the literature on the characteristics of management boards by especially focusing on family-listed and family-controlled companies, as they are ideal for studying board heterogeneity. It uses specific multidimensional indices and in-depth econometric analysis to introduce new variables, such as international experience, that represent a source of competitive advanta

Overview: All the leading lights in European non-linear control, fault identification and fault tolerance have contributed to this work.The book introduces ideas from research groups purposely set up to be multThe world of artificial systems is reaching complexity levels that es­ cape human understanding. Surface traffic, electricity distribution, air­ planes, mobile communications, etc. , are examples that demonstrate that we are running into problems that are beyond classical scientific or engi­ neering knowledge. There is an ongoing world-wide effort to understand these systems and develop

Overview: Provides a coherent view on the professional practice of alliances, networks, chains and strategic partnerships.Offers a multidisciplinary approach of collaborative processes that will appeal to both This publication focuses on the conditions for promising collaboration. Collaboration is becoming a dominant instrument in today‘s economy and society and manifests itself in many shapes and forms. It is a challenging instrument which still isn‘t very well understood and poses the business community in front of a number of challenging dilemma‘s. We position collaboration as a multidiscip

Overview: Introduces the research background and significance as well as recent research in Markovian jump systems and semi-Markovian jump systems.Focuses on the stability analysis and control design for some c.This book presents up-to-date research developments and novel methodologies on semi-Markovian jump systems (S-MJS). It presents solutions to a series of problems with new approaches for the control and filtering of S-MJS, including stability analysis, sliding mode control, dynamic output feedback control, robust filter design, and fault detection. A set of newly developed techniques suc

Overview: The design of complex artifacts and systems requires the cooperation of multidiscip- nary design teams using multiple commercial and proprietary engineering software tools (e.g., CAD, modeling, simulation, visualization, and optimization), engineering databases, and knowledge-based systems. Individuals or individual groups of mult- isciplinary design teams usually work in parallel and separately with various en- neering software tools which are located at different sites. In addition, individual members may be working on different versions of a design or viewing the design from diffe

Overview: Provides a highly unique and provocative perspective on the topic of creativity and education.Brings together leading cross-disciplinary experts to weigh-in on the creative contradictions in educationCreative Contradictions in Education is a provocative collection of essays by international experts who tackle difficult questions about creativity in education from a cross-disciplinary perspective. The contributors to this volume examine and provide fresh insights into the tensions and contradictions that researchers and educators face when attempting to understand and apply creativity

Overview: The first edition of my book "Climate and Circulation of the Tropics" was reasonably up to date to the middle of 1985. In a second printing in 1988 it was possible to complete a few literature references and to correct some misprints. However, vigorous research has taken place over the past five years in various areas of tropical climate dynamics, especially in the atmosphere-ocean mechanisms of climate anomalies, climate prediction, ocean circulation, and paleoclimates. Promising progress has also been made in the application of general circulation modelling to tropical climate prob
