Overview: Up-to-date knowledge on mechanical aspects of plant life functioning.Gives an overview of the role played by mechanical forces and signals in plant cells and whole plant growth.Covers all levels of pl.Chemical reactions and interactions between molecules are commonly considered the basis of life, and thus the biochemical nature of cells and organisms is relatively well recognized. Research conducted in recent years, however, increasingly indicates that physical forces profoundly affect the functioning of life at all levels of its organization. To detect and to respond to such forces,

Overview: "Das zu besprechende Werk zählt in der nunmehr vorliegenden (überarbeiteten) 9. Auflage zu den Klassikern auf dem Gebiet der mathematischen Grundlagen für Ingenieure und Naturwissenschaftler. Den Autoren ist es nämlich gelungen (wie sie auch im Vorwort als Ziel angeben), ‘das mathematische Rüstzeug (für Ingenieure) immer in Verbindung mit der Physik und den Anwendungen in der Technik zu vermitteln, die Brücke von der Mathematik zur Technik zu schlagen‘. ....

Overview: Comprehensive overview of latest mass spectrometric techniques for protein analysis.Step-by-step methods complete with detailed instructions for successful implementation.Written by established expertWhen the last edition of this book was published in 2000, the field of proteomics was in its infancy. At that time, multidimensional liquid chromatographic separations were being introduced as an alternative to traditional gel-based techniques for separating complex protein and peptide mixtures prior to mass spectrometric detection. Today, this approach – referred to as shotgun proteomic

Overview: MOX fuel, a mixture of weapon-grade plutonium and natural ordepleted uranium, may be used to deplete a portion of the world‘ssurplus of weapon-grade plutonium. A number of reactors currentlyoperate in Europe with one-third MOX cores, and others are scheduledto begin using MOX fuels in both Europe and Japan in the near future.While Russia has laboratory-scale MOX fabrication facilities, thetechnology remains under study. No fuels containing plutonium are usedin the U.S. .The 25 presentations in this book give an impressive overview of MOXtechnology. The following issues are covered: a

Overview: Develops a new and cohesive treatment of the theory of monotone games.Focuses on identifying unifying threads across games with strategic complements, games with strategic substitutes, and combination.This Palgrave Pivot examines monotone games and studies incentives and outcomes when there are multiple players, and how the decision of each player affects the well-being of others in particular ways. Games with strategic complements exhibit codirectional incentives, or incentives for each player to move in the same direction as other players. Games with strategic substitutes exhibit c

Overview: .Mental Symbols. is an essay on mind and meaning, on thebiological implementation of mental symbols, on the architecture ofmind, and on the correct construal of logical properties and relationsof symbols, including implication and inference. The book arguesagainst the main contemporary trends in the cognitive sciences,preferring rather the classical early-modern tradition. The authorlooks at some logical paradoxes in the light of that tradition, andoffers a novel answer to the problem of the biological implementationof the mind in the brain.978-94-010-6374-6978-94-011-5632-5Series IS

Overview: Molecular biology has provided a tool with which problems in cellular differentiation can be answered. Recombinant DNA technology has been used to obtain quantities of the erythropoietic hormone, erythropoietin. The availability of the hormone has provided a much-needed impetus in learning how erythropoiesis is controlled. Knowledge of the genetic components, transcription and translation of the erythropoietin gene and finally the release of the mature hormone under various physiological conditions should be forthcoming in the near future. This volume will give the reader some indica

Overview: MOLECULAR ENZYMOLOGY, BECAUSE OF ITS CHEMICAL AND MATHEMATICAL content, is often regarded as a formidable and forbidding topic by undergraduates on a biology or biochemistry course, As a result of teaching enzymology to undergraduates for a number of years, we recognize the areas which appear to cause the most common difficulties in conceptual understanding. We feel that a book treating those areas by means of a logical approach carefully developed from basic principles fills a gap in the multiplicity of enzymology texts currently available. In writing this book we h;:lVe had in mind

Overview: Includes supplementary material: The liberalisation in the telecommunication market and thus the advent of competition has had a tremendous impact on business in this area. New operators have started to offer telecommunication services in competition with the classical national network operators. This in turn will have an impact on the market share, the tariff structure, the Quality of Service (QoS) and the services offered to the end customers. A way to maintain or increase revenue for network operators is to additionally offer new services to the customers. The final target is a so
