Overview: THIS BOOK IS THE COMPANION VOLUME TO ANALYTIC METHODS FOR PARTIAL DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS..THE EMPHASIS IS ON THE PRACTICAL SOLUTION OF PROBLEMS RATHER THAN THE THEORETICAL BACKGROUND * CONTAINS NUMEROThe subject of partial differential equations holds an exciting and special position in mathematics. Partial differential equations were not consciously created as a subject but emerged in the 18th century as ordinary differential equations failed to describe the physical principles being studied. The subject was originally developed by the major names of mathematics, in particular, Leon

Overview: Arturo J.Cruz, Jr argues that political learning, trust-building, and institutional innovation by political elites broke Nicaragua‘s post-colonial cycle of anarchy and petty despotism, leaving in its place an increasingly inclusive oligarchic democracy that made possible state-led economic development for the next thirty years. Subsequent economic development gave rise to new social groups and localist power centres that remained politically disparate, and in turn forged an outsiders‘ coalition to bring down the Republic.978-1-349-42950-9978-1-4039-1943-4Series ISSN 2633-5964 Series

Overview: Presents the most current research in Information and Communication Technologies.Includes supplementary material: The increasing demand for sophisticated network applications, allied to the growth of the Internet traffic, has lead to great efforts in the search of improvements in data transmission technologies with the intention of satisfying the increasing demand for bandwidth. So far as optical networking is concerned, WDM (Wavelength Division Multiplexing) appears as the main advance in the transmission area, because it allows transmission rates near to the theoretical limit of op

Overview: Presents unique case studies, examining media and political representations of distant suffering.Focuses on empathy across cultural lines associated with conflict, misunderstanding or domination.Offer.This book focuses on American political discourse connected to war, dissent, and empathy. Through interdisciplinary methods of history, politics and media studies, the book examines ways in which American self-identity alters as a consequence of media portrayal of human suffering and of its existential .others..

Overview: This book is the first one dealing with the electromagnetic field on the nanometer scale.Includes supplementary material: Many books on mesoscopic systems have been published as progress has con­ tinued in the fields of nanoscience and nanotechnology. The focus in these books is mainly on quantum mechanical behavior in artificial electronic sys­ tems fabricated by nanometer-scale structuring. Such quantum mechanical behavior is projected to macroscopic observers and the quantum nature can be utilized in practical devices. Quantum computers, another hot topic nowa­ days, are character

Overview: Offers valuable insight to acoustical, physiological and biological measures of the voice development.Based on the scientific project COST 2103 of the European Union of advanced voice assessment of 17The technical measurement of individual parameters in an area as complex as music and song has achieved acceptance only in recent years. However important objective parameters of normal voice development may be, they are especially so when patholo- cal deviations have to be recognised and defined. It is nevertheless also possible to a certain extent to describe different qualities of nor
