Overview: First book on this subject.Introduces a new generation of materials.Written and edited by pioneers in the fieldSince the 1997 Kyoto protocol of reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, the development of novel refrigerators has been a priority within the scientific community. Although magnetocaloric materials are promising candidates, they still need a large magnetic field to induce a giant ΔT as well as powerful and costly magnets. However, in electrocaloric materials (ECMs) a temperature change may be achieved by applying or removing an electric field. Since a giant electrocaloric ef

Overview: Kompakt und leicht verständlich für die Bachelor-AusbildungVORWORT ZUR 6. AUFLAGE Die „Einführung in die Betriebswirtschaftslehre“ findet weiterhin eine sehr gute Resonanz. Die 5. Auflage ist wiederum nach nur drei Jahren vergriffen. Schon deshalb war eine Neuauflage des Werkes erforderlich. Es gibt aber noch einen zweiten Grund für die Neuauflage: Die Zahlenangaben sind nach drei Jahren nicht mehr aktuell, neue Aspekte tauchen in der Fachdiskussion auf, die einbezogen werden sollten, bei den Literaturhinweisen sind Aktua- sierungen notwendig. Ein Werk, das in das gesamte Gebiet der

Overview: Welcome to the proceedings of the 2005 IFIP International Conference on - bedded and Ubiquitous Computing (EUC 2005), which was held in Nagasaki, Japan, December 6–9, 2005. Embedded and ubiquitous computing is emerging rapidly as an exciting new paradigm to provide computing and communication services all the time, - erywhere. Its systems are now pervading every aspect of life to the point that they are hidden inside various appliances or can be worn unobtrusively as part of clothing and jewelry. This emergence is a natural outcome of research and technological advances in embedded s

Overview: This volume is an outgrowth of a NATO Advanced Research Workshop on "Expert Judgment and Expert Systems," held in Porto, Portugal, August 1986. Support for the Workshop was provided by the NATO Division of Scientific Affairs, the U.S. Army Research Institute, and the U.S. National Science Foundation.

Overview: The only reference book on the subject.Electrostatic accelerators are an important and widespread subgroup within the broad spectrum of modern, large particle acceleration devices. They are specifically designed for applications that require high-quality ion beams in terms of energy stability and emittance at comparatively low energies (a few MeV). Their ability to accelerate virtually any kind of ion over a continuously tunable range of energies makes them a highly versatile tool for investigations in many research fields including, but not limited to, atomic and nuclear spectroscop
