Overview: Combines advanced methods for solving strongly coupled problems involving multirate dynamics in time and frequency domain with applications to Uncertainty Quantification and Fast Fault Simulation.Uniq.Designs in nanoelectronics often lead to challenging simulation problems and include strong feedback couplings. Industry demands provisions for variability in order to guarantee quality and yield. It also requires the incorporation of higher abstraction levels to allow for system simulation in order to shorten the design cycles, while at the same time preserving accuracy. The methods de

Overview: Leser zur Vertiefung seines Wissens anregen. Die zum Teil umfangreichen Lösungen sind ausführ­ lich in einem Anhang zusammengefaßt, so daß sich das Buch auch zum Selbststudium eignet. Bei vielen in diesem Buch behandelten Problemkreisen werden mehrere Verfahren entwickelt. In all diesen Fällen kann keinem Verfahren beim Einsatz in den Ingenieurwissenschaften ein absoluter Vorzug gegeben werden, vielmehr ist bei unterschiedlichen Aufgaben und bei unterschiedlichem Einsatz der Hilfsmittel (Taschenrechner, kleine oder größere Rechenanlage) einmal das eine, ein­ mal das andere Verfahren

Overview: The role of carcinogenic agents in the deveolopment of human cancers is now being defined using a variety of human cells as experi­ mental model systems. A workshop on "neoplastic transformation in human cell systems in vitro: mechanisms of carcinogenesis" was held at the Georgetown University Medical Center, Washington, DC, on April 25-26, 1991. The aims of the workshop were to present the state-of-the­ art in the transformation of human cells in culture, as well as to provide insight into the molecular and cellular changes involved in the conver­ sion of normal cells to a neoplasti

Overview: Provides an overview of recent concepts for a possible statistical description of turbulence.Focuses on non-perturbative methods for the closure problem of turbulence.Explains why common perturbative This book provides a comprehensive overview of statistical descriptions of turbulent flows. Its main objectives are to point out why ordinary perturbative treatments of the Navier–Stokes equation have been rather futile, and to present recent advances in non-perturbative treatments, e.g., the instanton method and a stochastic interpretation of turbulent energy transfer. After a brief int

Overview: Nachhaltige Wirtschaftspolitik am Beispiel GroßbritanniensSeit Ende der 1960er Jahre werden konkordante und korporatistische Entscheidungsmuster als wünschenswert für moderne Demokratien empfohlen. Wissenschaftler haben sich in internationalen Vergleichen bemüht, deren positive Performanz vor dem Hindergrund makroökonomischer Daten in verschiedenen Politikfeldern herauszuarbeiten. Seit einigen Jahren wird allerdings gefordert, die quantitativen Forschungszugänge stärker durch qualitative zu ergänzen. Dies ist hier für die Wirtschaftspolitik Großbritanniens geschehen. Die Longitudinal

Overview: Eighteenth-century philosophy owes much to the early novel. Using the figure of the romance reader this book tells a new story of eighteenth-century reading. The impressionable mind and mutable identity of the romance reader haunt eighteenth-century definitions of the self, and the seductions of fiction insist on making an appearance in philosophy.978-1-349-35053-7978-1-137-03329-1Series ISSN 2634-6516 Series E-ISSN 2634-6524

Overview: .Attractive international projects with, by and in water...After decades of being banished from residential areas, water is now becoming an increasingly significant feature in urban design. Whether it is the integration of natural water courses into the built environment rainwater management, the incorporation of water elements in urban areas for climatic purposes or the creation of oases of tranquility or drama such as pools or fountains – all these aspects are not only encountering renewed interest among architects and urban planners, but they are also greeted with appreciation by

Overview: Umfassender Baukasten mit energetischen und nutzungsbezogenen Modulen und Teilsystemen zur lebenszyklusorientierten Optimierung von Gebäuden.Konkrete Vorschläge für LC-Leistungsangebote zur praktischeDie Energieeffizienz und der Einsatz regenerativer Energiesysteme sind Schlüsselaspekte bei der zukünftigen Gestaltung (Neubau, Instandsetzung, Erneuerung) des Gebäudeparks. Die wichtigsten Motivationstreiber der Lebenszyklusorientierung des Gebäudeparks sind die ökologische Nachhaltigkeit und die ökonomische Werthaltigkeit der Gebäude.Das Buch zeigt einen Baukasten aus energetischen und

Overview: Warum die Einführung einer neuen Geldordnung notwendig ist.Mit einer prägnanten Darstellung des heutigen Geldsystems.Enthält den Entwurf für ein europäisches Währungsgesetz.Includes supplementary mateTimm Gudehus begründet in diesem essential die Notwendigkeit einer neuen Geldordnung und beschreibt ihre Vorteile und Chancen. Die Ausführungen sollen dazu anregen, die vorliegenden Vorschläge für eine neue Geldordnung kritisch zu prüfen, bessere Lösungen zu entwickeln, die Einführungsmöglichkeiten zu diskutieren und offene Fragen zu beantworten. Das Werk richtet sich an alle, die verste

Themainpurposesofthissecondedition are to update the ?rst edition by giving a coherent account of some of the new developments, to correct errors, and to re?ne the exposition. Much of the text has been rewritten, reorganized, and extended. The philosophy underlying my approach is exactly that given in the following (slightly modi?ed) Preface to the First Edition.

Overview: This volume contains papers contributed to the NATO Advanced Research Workshop "Nonlinear Evolution of Spatio-Temporal Structures in Dissipative Continuous Systems" held in Streitberg, Fed. Rep. Germany, Sept. 24 through 30, 1989. The purpose of the rather long title has been to focus attention on a particularly fruitful direction of research within the broad field covered by terms like Nonlinear Dynamics or Non-Equilibrium Systems. After physicists have been occupied for several decades mainly with the microscopic structure of matter, recent years have witnessed a resurgence of inte

Overview: The theories of quadratic forms and their applications appear in many parts of mathematics and the sciences. All students of mathematics have the opportunity to encounter such concepts and applications in their first course in linear algebra. This subject and its extensions to infinite dimen­ sions comprise the theory of the numerical range W(T). There are two competing names for W(T), namely, the numerical range of T and the field of values for T. The former has been favored historically by the func­ tional analysis community, the latter by the matrix analysis community. It is a tos
