Overview: Nominated as an outstanding Ph.D. thesis by the University of Science and Technology of China.Provides a brief introduction to the interfacial mechanics of graphene.Effectively combines the continuum This thesis shares new findings on the interfacial mechanics of graphene-based materials interacting with rigid/soft substrate and with one another. It presents an experimental platform including various loading modes that allow nanoscale deformation of atomically thin films, and a combination of atomic force microscopy (AFM) and Raman spectroscopy that allows both displacement and strai

Overview: First book on computational surgery and dual training.Provides a foundation in surgical methods for biomedical engineers who wish to do research in the surgical area.Includes material on surgery appliThe future of surgery is intrinsically linked to the future of computational sciences: the medical act will be computer assisted at every single step, from planning to post-surgery recovery and through the surgical procedure itself. Looking back at the history of surgery, surgery practice has changed drama- cally with the extensive use of revolutionary techniques, such as medical imaging

Overview: Up to date results.Fast track conference proceedings.State of the art resultsThis book includes extended versions of the selected papers from VISIGRAPP 2009, the International Joint Conference on Computer Vision, Imaging and Computer Graphics Theory and Applications, which was held in Lisbon, Portugal, during February 5–8, 2009 and organized by the Institute for Systems and Technologies of Information, Control and Communication (INSTICC). VISIGRAPP comprises three component conferences, namely, the International Conference on Computer Vision Theory and Applications (VISAPP), the Inte

Overview: The peace time stationing for collective security purposes of large numbers of military personnel of one country in the territory of an­ other country constitutes one of the most significant developments of postwar international relations. The United States, for example, has stationed nearly one half of its active military forces in over seventy 1 countries since the Korean War broke out. Stambuk noted that al­ though the theories rationalizing this situation have changed, "the overseas bases and forces remain. "2 As a direct result of this stationing of large numbers of troops in fo

Overview: Analyzes past and present communication of space research and exploration to the public and stakeholders.Casts light on how difficult it is, in today’s multimedia world, to communicate science.Explore.This book offers an enlightening analysis of the ways in which the communication of space explorations has evolved in response to political and social developments and the availability of new media and communication tools. Important challenges to effective communication are discussed, including the diversity of audiences, the risks associated with space missions, and continuing skeptici

Overview: .This book presents a holistic view on compiler assisted practical secure multi-party computation (MPC) over Boolean circuits. It discusses that two or more parties jointly evaluate a function over their inputs in such a way that each party keeps its input unknown to the other parties in MPC. MPC provides a generic way to construct Privacy-Enhancing Technologies, which protect sensitive data during processing steps in untrusted environments. A major obstacle in the past was to generate MPC applications by hand. Recently, special compilers have been developed to build all kinds of app

Overview: Written by the top experts in the field.Presents the principle reference information on the development of the second generation intact stability criteria by International Maritime Organization (IMO) .This book contains a selection of research papers presented at the 11.th. and 12.th. International Ship Stability Workshops (Wageningen, 2010 and Washington DC, 2011) and the 11.th. International Conference on Stability of Ships and Ocean Vehicles (Athens, 2012). The book is directed toward the ship stability community and presents innovative ideas concerning the understanding of the ph

Overview: Provides an expanded focus mainly on Japanese and Korean firms and compares them with German and American firms.Contributes to theoretical and practical aspects of the field, suggesting a theoretical This book discusses the ways in which characteristics of innovative firms and innovative talents with core competence in Japanese, Korean, German, and American contexts are developed and nurtured, and compares innovative firms with a long history of business operations from these four countries...Firstly, the book examines innovation practices of long-lived Japanese firms and compares th

Overview: Presents the emerging topic Cyber-Physical System Security and Resilience (includes case studies).Covers interdisciplinary methods that bridge over control theory, game theory, cryptography, and decis.This book introduces a cross-layer design to achieve security and resilience for CPSs (Cyber-Physical Systems). The authors interconnect various technical tools and methods to capture the different properties between cyber and physical layers. Part II of this book bridges the gap between cryptography and control-theoretic tools. It develops a bespoke crypto-control framework to address

Overview: Focuses on three influential cognitive motives: achievement, affiliation, and power motivation.Addresses practical issues for defining games, mini-games and in-game scenarios for virtual worlds.Useful.The focus of this book is on three influential cognitive motives: achievement, affiliation, and power motivation. Incentive-based theories of achievement, affiliation and power motivation are the basis for competence-seeking behaviour, relationship-building, leadership, and resource-controlling behaviour in humans. In this book we show how these motives can be modelled and embedded in a

Overview: Common Sense: Get It, Use It, and Teach It in the Workplace shows readers not only what common sense is, but how to acquire it and improve their personal common sense quotient..It also shows how to te.“He may have an MBA, but he’s got no common sense.” Assessments like that by a boss can stop a career dead in its tracks. Unfortunately, many believe that common sense is a trait you are either born with or you are not. This book dispels that myth. Through the pages of .Common Sense: Get It, Use It, and Teach It in the Workplace. readers will learn not only what common sense is, but how

Overview: Includes supplementary material: .The author emphasizes a non-uniform ellipticity condition as the main approach to regularity theory for solutions of convex variational problems with different types of non-standard growth conditions...This volume first focuses on elliptic variational problems with linear growth conditions. Here the notion of a "solution" is not obvious and the point of view has to be changed several times in order to get some deeper insight. Then the smoothness properties of solutions to convex anisotropic variational problems with superlinear growth are studied. In

Overview: The progress in Micromorphology and Biochemistry of the last decades has led to a rather far reaching understanding of the function of the genes. Much is also known about their morphological organization within the cell, particularly their reduplication and segregation in connection with the process of cell division. The intensive light microscopic studies of the earlier cytological era on cell division and chromosomes, which laid the basis for this understanding are very comprehensively covered by WASSERMANN (1929) in his masterly contribution "Wachstum und Vermehrung der lebendigen
