Overview: Der Verkehr in Städten und dessen positive und negative Wirkung gewinnen in der politi­ schen Diskussion seit Jahren an Beachtung. Sowohl weite Kreise der Bevölkerung als auch Vertreter aus Wissenschaft und Wirtschaft fordern eine Neugestaltung unseres Mobilitäts­ systems und stellen vielfältige Überlegungen an, um den verkehrsbedingten Problemen zu begegnen. Geht es jedoch darum, konkrete Maßnahmen zur Behebung von Schwachstellen zu bestimmen, differieren die Ansichten über eine adäquate Vergehensweise stark. Einigkeit herrscht lediglich darüber, dass einerseits dem Mobilitätsbedürf

Overview: Studie der Mobilitäts- und Verkehrsforschung.Includes supplementary material: Annika Busch-Geertsema untersucht, inwiefern sich Mobilitätsverhalten und mobilitätsbezogene Einstellungen im Zuge eines Lebensereignisses ändern. Auf einer zwischen Psychologie und Geographie angesiedelten theoretischen Grundlage sowie mittels einer dreistufigen Panelbefragung von Studierenden, die im Befragungszeitraum ins Berufsleben eingetreten sind, werden mithilfe bi- und multivariater Analysemethoden Erkenntnisse zur (In)Stabilität der Verkehrsmittelnutzung und der Einstellungen herausgearbeitet.

Overview: G. HASENFUSS, E. MARBAN Heart failure embodies the central irony of modern medicine. As we have become increasingly adept at treating the major proximate causes of death in Western society, we have effectively converted acute illness into chronic malady. The last twenty years have witnessed a revolution in the treatment of acute coronary syndromes, myocardial infarction in particular. Patients who reach the hospital now have every expectation of leaving alive, but not necessarily well. Our ability to blunt the edge of ischemic insults has en­ gendered new problems: a new cohort of pa

Overview: Mechanik der Metalle, Polymere und Keramiken - ein BrückenschlagWelches mechanische Verhalten zeigen Werkstoffe bei Beanspruchungen, denen sie bei ihrem Einsatz im Maschinenbau ausgesetzt sind? Um hierauf Antwort zu geben, führt das Buch Kontinuumsmechanik und Werkstoffwissenschaften zusammen und geht auf alle Werkstoffgruppen ein. Dabei werden die Mechanismen des Werkstoffverhaltens erklärt, und es wird die Frage beantwortet warum und wie etwas im Werkstoff passiert. Es werden alle wesentlichen Verformungs- und Versagensmechanismen wie Elastizität, Plastizität, Ermüden, Kriechen ode

Overview: Contains the state-of-the-art in the field of Magnonics.Selected invited papers from the "International Workshop on Magnonics", Porto de Galinhas, Brazil.Magnonics is rapidly becoming a popular and ma.Spin waves (and their quanta magnons) can effectively carry and process information in magnetic nanostructures. By analogy to photonics, this research field is labelled magnonics. It comprises the study of excitation, detection, and manipulation of magnons. From the practical point of view, the most attractive feature of magnonic devices is the controllability of their functioning by an

Overview: Introduces new models of system states with practical significance: spatial stress-strain states, volumetric damageability states, multi-criteria limiting states, and information states.Provides a genThis monograph addresses the foundations of mechanothermodynamics and analyzes two of its key principles—damage of everything that exists has no conceivable limits, and effective energy (entropy) flows caused by loads of a different nature do not have a cumulative property; they interact dialectically. The authors examine a generalized model of energy and entropy states of a mechanotherm

Overview: This book provides an introductory survey of Montesquieu‘s economic ideas and a fresh examination of the longstanding controversy over the meaning and purpose of Montesquieu‘s .The Spirit of the Laws.. No one doubts that Montesquieu helped to formulate the core liberal ideals at the heart of the development of liberal republican traditions on both the European and American continents. Yet, questions remain about Montesquieu‘s political intentions. In particular, the view of Montesquieu as a conscious proponent of commercial modernity has come under increasing scrutiny. While not igno
