Overview: Provides concise but comprehensive coverage of the topic.Offers data under different environmental conditions.Offers remedies to the current deficiencies in scientifically based modeling of phenomena..Fluid Effects in Polymers and Polymeric Composites., written by the late Dr. Y. Jack Weitsman, addresses the wide range of parameters that affect the interaction of fluids with polymers and polymeric composites. The book aims at broadening the scope of available data, mostly limited up to this time to weight-gain recordings of fluid ingress into polymers and composites, to the practical

Overview: Provides guidelines for engineers to improve the safety of aerospace engineering systems.Offers a systematic and comprehensive introduction to fault-tolerant cooperative control strategies.Provides an.This book focuses on the fault-tolerant cooperative control (FTCC) of multiple unmanned aerial vehicles (multi-UAVs). It provides systematic and comprehensive descriptions of FTCC issues in multi-UAVs concerning faults, external disturbances, strongly unknown nonlinearities, and input saturation. Further, it addresses FTCC design from longitudinal motions to attitude motions, and outer-

Overview: A basic principle governing the boundary behaviour of holomorphic func­ tions (and harmonic functions) is this: Under certain growth conditions, for almost every point in the boundary of the domain, these functions ad­ mit a boundary limit, if we approach the bounda-ry point within certain approach regions. For example, for bounded harmonic functions in the open unit disc, the natural approach regions are nontangential triangles with one vertex in the boundary point, and entirely contained in the disc [Fat06]. In fact, these natural approach regions are optimal, in the sense that con

Overview: Bringing the skills of a literary historian to the subject, Brian Moloney considers the genesis of Saint Francis of Assisi‘s Canticle of Brother Sun to show how it works as a carefully composed work of art. The study examines the saint‘s life and times, the structure of the poem, the features of its style, and the range of its possible meanings.978-1-349-45531-7978-1-137-36169-1Series ISSN 2945-5936 Series E-ISSN 2945-5944

Overview: Highlights the distinctive nature of family firms using different concepts, theories and frameworks and how their internationalization process and international networking might differ from that of no.Drawing on a series of case studies from Finland, this book examines the role of networking in the internationalisation process of family firms. Providing a comprehensive overview of recent literature alongside the empirical analysis of 24 family firms, the authors use theoretical concepts from family business research to create a model specifically for the internationalisation and netw

Overview: Gives a comprehensive account of full waveform tomography.Develops and describes state-of-the-art methodologies covering all aspects of full waveform tomography.Includes methods for the numerical soluRecent progress in numerical methods and computer science allows us today to simulate the propagation of seismic waves through realistically heterogeneous Earth models with unprecedented accuracy. Full waveform tomography is a tomographic technique that takes advantage of numerical solutions of the elastic wave equation. The accuracy of the numerical solutions and the exploitation of com

Overview: Geleitwort Die ökonomische Situation vieler Industriebereiche insbesondere jedoch der Automobil­ industrie in der Gegenwart läßt sich durch zwei charakteristische Merkmale kennzeichnen, die einen weitreichenden Einfluß auf Forschung und Entwicklung in diesen Bereichen aus­ üben. So sehen sich die Hersteller zum einen mit einer zunehmenden Individualisierung der Kundenbedürfuisse und einem wachsenden Qualitätsbewußtsein konfrontiert, was im allge­ meinen zu einer Steigerung der Produktkomplexität und dadurch ausgelöst, zu komplexeren Fertigungsprozessen führt. Zum anderen fordern Glob

Overview: Ein Bild sagt oft mehr als tausend Worte, und mit dem Fotoapparat ist es leicht, sich ein oder auch viele Bilder zu machen. Martin Schuster spürt den psychologischen Aspekten der Fotografie nach: Welche Motive werden gewählt? Was verbindet Fotografen und Fotografierte? Was erleben wir beim Betrachten eigener und fremder Fotos? Er zeigt, wie Fotos in der Psychotherapie genutzt werden können, um die Vergangenheit wieder lebendig zu machen und wie Presse- und Werbefotografen mit Fotos an unsere Wünsche und Sehnsüchte appellieren. Hinweise zur Alltagsfotografie ermuntern dazu, ungeachtet

Overview: Die Flora der Stadt Zürich behandelt alle 1400 Arten der Farn- und Blütenpflanzen, die im Gebiet der Stadt Zürich vorkommen oder in den letzten 160 Jahren vorgekommen sind und sich hier selbständig vermehren. Darüber hinaus werden 600 zusätzliche Arten erfasst, die gelegentlich eingeschleppt oder sehr häufig kultiviert werden. Die angeführten 2000 Arten sind mit Strichzeichnungen illustriert und ökologisch charakterisiert. Ein übersichtlicher morphologischer Schlüssel ermöglicht die Bestimmung der Pflanzenarten. Für die 1400 einheimischen oder eingebürgerten Arten liegen Verbreitungs

Overview: Synthetic resins have become increasingly important over the years, finding wide application in a variety of fields. Not least have been the tremendous strides made in the use of fibre reinforced resin systems. Although by far the bulk of all fibre reinforced products are made from unsaturated polyester r~sins reinforced with glass fibres, other resins and other fibres are playing an increasingly important role. It is with this in mind that the present book has been written. An attempt has been made to combine within one book information on the various resin systems and reinforcing f

Overview: This book constitutes revised selected papers from the 10th International Symposium on Foundations and Practice of Security, FPS 2017, held in Nancy, France in October 2017.. The 20 papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 53 submissions. The papers were organized in topical sections named: access control; formal verification; privacy; physical security; network security, encrypted DBs and blockchain; vulnerability analysis and deception systems; and defence against attacks and anonymity. .978-3-319-75649-3978-3-319-75650-9Series ISSN 0302-9743 Series

Overview: A few years ago, a motivation for organizing one more IAU Symposium on star for­ mation in Grenoble, was the anticipated completion of the IRAM interferometer on the Plateau de Bures, close to Grenoble. This choice was also a sort of late celebration of the genius of Joseph Fourier, born in Grenoble, whose work is the very fondation of in­ terferometry. At the time when we finally announced the advent of this conference, the first reactions we got from the community were expressions of saturation and even reject, the Symposium being unfortunately scheduled almost simultaneously as tw

Overview: New approach to the formulation of efficient laws.Quantitative empirical analysis of legal rule formulation.Includes supplementary material: Formulation of Appropriate Laws: A New Multidisciplinary Modelling Approach and an Application to Electronic Funds Transfer Regulation.
