Overview: This work is a revised and enlarged edition of a book with the same title published in Romanian by the Publishing House of the Romanian Academy in 1989. It grew out of lecture notes for a graduate course given by the author at the University if Ia~i and was initially intended for students and readers primarily interested in applications of optimal control of ordinary differential equations. In this vision the book had to contain an elementary description of the Pontryagin maximum principle and a large number of examples and applications from various fields of science. The evolution o

Overview: The present study of patents and patent applications published in the United States, Japan and the countries of Western Europe, and of other technological about 1980, is the result of a comprehensive analysis literature published since of documents which reveal various processes for reinforcing composite materials by metals, the atoms of which have been arranged according to predetermined matrices. Pre-searches were conducted by the Patent Information Office of TNO in Rijswijk, The Netherlands, which also provided copies of the documents needed to carry out the analysis. The Internat

Overview: Comprehensively covers transporter regulation in bacteria, yeast, plant and animal cells.All living cells are strictly separated from their surroundings by a membranous lipid bilayer. Into these membranes a variety of transport proteins are embedded that ensure the uptake and secretion of various molecules and ions. In order to respond properly to a changing nutrient supply or demand, as well as to external stress factors, cells must be able to adapt both amount and activity of the corresponding transporters. This book provides readers with state-of-the-art knowledge on the various r

Overview: Effizientes Management im Krankenhaus - mit einer Vielzahl vorgestellter Instrumente und 12 internationalen FallstudienDas deutsche Gesundheitswesen befindet sich in einem radikalen Umbruch. Steigende Gesundheitsausgaben, eine Entwicklung der Bevölkerungspyramide, die noch höhere Ausgaben für die Zukunft erwarten lässt, und Patienten, die zunehmend individuellere Leistungen einfordern, sind hierfür nur exemplarisch. Ansätze zur Bewältigung dieser Herausforderungen finden sich in den vielfältigen Managementinstrumenten und Organisationsformen von Managed Care. Darunter versteht man de

Overview: Marine biological science is now studied at the molecular leveland although research scientists depend on information gained usingmolecular techniques, there is no book explaining the philosophy ofthis approach. Molecular Approaches to the Study of the Oceanintroduces the reasons why molecular technology is such a powerfultool in the study of the oceans, describing the types of techniquesthat can be used, why they are useful and gives examples of theirapplication. Molecular biological techniques allow phylogeneticrelationships to be explored in a manner that no macroscopic methodcan;

Overview: In this volume seven leading theoreticians and experimenters review the origin of the asymmetry of matter and antimatter in the Big Bang, solar neutrinos, the physics of enormous densities and temperatures in stars and of immense magnetic fields around collapsed stars, strong electric fields in heavy ion collisions, and the extreme conditions in quark-gluon plasmas. The articles address nuclear and particle physicists, especially graduate students, but also astrophysicists and cosmologists, since they have to deal with events under the extreme physical conditions discussed here.978-3

Overview: All materials contain numerous defects, such as microcracks, microvoids, inhomogeneities, dislocations, etc., which precede possible fracture. Thus mathematical modeling becomes necessary. This volume contains some introductory material, aspects of fracture mechanics, the theory of crystal defects, computational micromechanics, and the heterogenization methodology.978-3-211-82487-0978-3-7091-2716-2Series ISSN 0254-1971 Series E-ISSN 2309-3706
