Overview: This book demonstrates new ways of looking at wastewater processing - a subject of extreme importance in the increasingly urbanised world of the 21st Century, much of which still relies on the infrastby Professor Poul Harremoes Environmental engineering has been a discipline dominated by empirical approaches to engineering. Historically speaking, the development of urban drainage structures was very successful on the basis of pure empiricism. Just think of the impressive structures built by the Romans long before the discipline of hydraulics came into being. The fact is that the Roma

Overview: Sozialwissenschaftliche Studie.Includes supplementary material: .1780 Fotografien sind zur „Schule der Freundschaft“, einem bilateralen Projekt der Bildungszusammenarbeit zwischen der DDR und der VR Mosambik, überliefert. In diesem einzigartigen Quellenkorpus, den Jane Schuch untersucht, manifestieren sich das Scheitern politisch-pädagogischer Erziehungsambitionen der DDR, die DDR-weiße Sicht auf das afrikanisch Andere und die Widerständigkeit der Jugendlichen. Für die mosambikanischen AbsolventInnen dieser Schule wird zugleich Fotografie selbst, jenseits pädagogisch-politischer Zumu

Overview: This book is concerned with our ideological, technical and emotional investments in reclaiming medieval for contemporary popular culture. The authors illuminate both medieval and contemporary popular culture in surprising and productive ways while interrogating the many ways in which metamedievalism reinterprets and reconceptualises the medieval.978-1-349-34085-9978-1-137-10517-2Series ISSN 2945-5936 Series E-ISSN 2945-5944

Overview: Multidivisionalen Organisationen bietet sich mit der Kombination von Ressourcen verschiedener Geschäftsbereiche ein zusätzliches Potenzial zur Schaffung neuer Produkte oder Dienstleistungen. Markus Grote untersucht, wie das Top Management multidivisionaler Unternehmen gemeinsame Innovationen systematisch fördern kann und welche Herausforderungen ein bereichsübergreifendes Innovationsmanagement zu bestehen hat. Er zeigt, dass eine systematische Förderung gemeinsamer Vorhaben in den frühen Innovationsphasen über geeignete Integrationsmechanismen und Anreize von zentraler Bedeutung für

Overview: Ladies and Gentlemen, dear guests, It is my great pleasure and privilege to extend our heartiest wel­ come to you, the participants of this 33rd Nobel symposium. To those of you who have not attended a Nobel symposium before I would like just briefly to explain why Nobel‘s name is linked to this series of symposia. Alfred Nobel, who died in San Remo in 1896, donated the main part of his fortune to the promotion of in­ ternational science and culture by establishing annual prizes for outstanding discoveries or contributions within five fields, che­ mistry, physics, physiology or medic

Overview: Provides a rich sample of the vibrant archaeological research conducted in Africa today.Blends conceptual theoretical sophistication with inspired fieldwork.Combines archaeological, historical and ethThis volumeinvestigates the material production and expression of colonial experiences in Africa. It combines archaeological, historical, and ethnographic sources to explore the diverse pathways, practices, and projects constructed by Africans in their engagement with the forces of colonial modernity and capitalism. This volume is situated in ongoing debates in archaeological and anthrop

Overview: Written in a clear, accessible style.Establishes a relationship between Foucault‘s thought and militancy, showing how they are intertwined.Broadens and diversifies the understanding of Foucault‘s work.The relationship between two distinct periods in Michel Foucault‘s work is the starting point for this book. In "Truth and Power," an interview Foucault gave in 1976, he states that to create a new politics of truth is an intellectual‘s main task. In this book, Priscila Piazentini Vieira analyzes Foucault‘s study on ancient culture and courage of truth in the 1980s as his main contribut

Overview: It is a masterpiece. The author is to be congratulated on producing a considerable work which will be greatly appreciated by students‘ - Arthur Wheeler, Lecturer in Engineering, Colchester InstituteA unique book covering the ‘how‘ and the ‘why‘ of the solution of problems in electronic and electrical engineering. It is packed with information on how to solve a wide range of problems, and contains hints and tips which will enable students to master the world of problem solving.The work throughout is supported by BASIC language programs and includes a chapter on solving problems using

Overview: Illustrates the design, simulation, and measurement of multiband dual-function filter-switches.Provides an introduction to band-pass, high-pass/low-pass, and multiband-pass filters.Describes the advan.This book presents the theory, analysis, and design of multiband dual-function microwave and millimeter-wave CMOS radio frequency integrated circuit (RFIC) filter-switches capable of simultaneous switching and filtering, which are relevant for advanced multiband RF systems. Typical microwave and millimeter-wave switches are designed only for switching purposes without considering freque

Overview: Provides detailed introductions to algorithms and examples of their applications.Domains that appear far from one another such as speech and handwriting recognition are shown to be equivalent from the1. 1 TwoFundamentalQuestions There are two fundamental questions that should be answered before buying, and even more before reading, a book: • Why should one read the book? • What is the book about? This is the reason why this section, the ?rst of the whole text, proposes some motivations for potential readers (Section 1. 1. 1) and an overall description of the content (Section 1. 1. 2)

Overview: Multivariate Approximation Theory forms a rapidly evolving field in Applied Mathematics. The reason for its particular current interest lies in its impact on Computer Aided Geometric Design (CAGD), Image Processing, Pattern Recogni tion, and Mult idimensional Signal Processing. Mul ti var iate Bernstein polynomials and box splines, for example, play an important role in CAGD. Conversely, the highly important filter bank design problem of signal processing, for instance, gives rise to a new family of multivariate approximating functions, the Gabor wavelets, with interesting technologi
