Overview: This report on materials is not a sequel to the five or six high-quality reports published in certain Community countries over the last few years, nor does it attempt to summarize them. Nor is it a technical summary of the state of the art in new materials. It is rather to be seen as a survey of economic dynamics and strategy, carried out for the purpose of prompting political and industrial leaders throughout the European Community to reflect in some depth on the subject of materials. The report is arranged in five parts : the first is concerned with a definition of materials, the s

Overview: This is the first monograph on the numerical analysis of oscillatory solutions to problems in fluid mechanics. It contains completely new ideas never published before.An effective way of computation o.This book is devoted to the numerical analysis of compressible fluids in the spirit of the celebrated Lax equivalence theorem. The text is aimed at graduate students in mathematics and fluid dynamics, researchers in applied mathematics, numerical analysis and scientific computing, and engineers and physicists..The book contains original theoretical material based on a new approach to ge

Overview: Presents a thorough and coherent introduction to some core topics from nonlinear analysis, namely, approximation theory, optimization theory, theory of variational inequalities and fixed point theory.Many of our daily-life problems can be written in the form of an optimization problem. Therefore, solution methods are needed to solve such problems. Due to the complexity of the problems, it is not always easy to find the exact solution. However, approximate solutions can be found. The theory of the best approximation is applicable in a variety of problems arising in nonlinear functiona

Overview: Details recent advances in Macroeconomics on a global level.Provides insight into economic policy and offers a broad historical perspective.Includes supplementary material: That macroeconomic theory and macroeconometrics are, in the near future and more than ever, indispensable tools in the study of economics is no longer a very cont- versial statement. It is now generally agreed that economic theory, combined with historical, statistical and mathematical methods are necessary at the theoretical level, to formulate problems precisely, to draw conclusions from postulates and to gain -

Overview: Includes supplementary material: While optimality conditions for optimal control problems with state constraints have been extensively investigated in the literature the results pertaining to numerical methods are relatively scarce. This book fills the gap by providing a family of new methods. Among others, a novel convergence analysis of optimal control algorithms is introduced. The analysis refers to the topology of relaxed controls only to a limited degree and makes little use of Lagrange multipliers corresponding to state constraints. This approach enables the author to provide g

Overview: Grundbegriffe, Methoden, Beispielinterpretationen und praktische Anleitungen.Auf dem neuesten Forschungsstand, mit aktueller Bibliografie.In der 2. Auflage zur Theorieentwicklung der letzten JahreUmfassender und verständlicher Überblick. Die aktuellen Literaturtheorien und Interpretationsmethoden kennen, unterscheiden und anwenden können wer Literatur analysieren möchte, muss das Handwerkszeug beherrschen. Das Lehrbuch stellt alle zentralen Theorien seit den 1980er Jahren vor: Diskursanalyse, Dekonstruktion, Neohermeneutik, Ansätze der Medien- und Kognitionswissenschaft sowie der Soz

Overview: Non-governmental organizations (NGOs) are increasingly recognised as playing a significant role in the health sector in developing countries. This book examines the background to the growth both in the sector and interest in it, the strengths and weaknesses of NGOs and the arguments for and against their use for different aspects of the health sector. It focuses particularly on the relationship between the State and non-governmental organizations and the issues critical to the development of policies towards the sector.978-0-333-68431-3978-0-230-37120-0

Overview: Naturgemäße Heilverfahren und alternative diagnostische und therapeutische Methoden werden in den letzten Jahren zunehmend diskutiert. Vor allem die Patienten selbst wenden sich an Ihren Arzt mit dem Wunsch nach einer sanften Methode, von der sie gehört oder gelesen haben. Neben der rein medizinischen Fragestellung nach der Wirksamkeit kommen für den Arzt auch rechtliche und abrechnungstechnische Fragen ins Spiel. Das Springer LoseblattSystem Naturheilverfahren unterstützt hier bei der Entscheidung. Es schildert alle gängigen Verfahren, bewertet ihre medizinische Nützlichkeit und gib

Overview: Draws together the widening gap between theory and experimentation.Discusses the NLO properties of substances of great importance, organometallics, nano-particles etc..Covers both microscopic and macr.Non-Linear Optical Properties of Matter: From Molecules to Condensed Phases attempts to draw together both theory and application in this field. As such it will be of interest to both experimentalists and theoreticians alike. Divided into two parts, Part 1 is concerned with the theory and computing of non-linear optical (NLO) properties while Part 2 reviews the latest developments in ex

Overview: As suggested by the title of this book Numerical Toolbox for Verified Computing, we present an extensive set of sophisticated tools to solve basic numerical problems with a verification of the results. We use the features of the scientific computer language PASCAL-XSC to offer modules that can be combined by the reader to his/her individual needs. Our overriding concern is reliability - the automatic verification of the result a computer returns for a given problem. All algorithms we present are influenced by this central concern. We must point out that there is no relationship betwe

Overview: Künstliche Neuronale Netze sind vom Mythos umgeben, wie Menschen denken zu können. In Wahrheit können Neuronale Netze dem Schein des "heiligen Grals der Informationsverarbeitung" nicht ganz entsprechen. Trotz alledem würde das Ignorieren der enormen Potenziale, die durch die Nutzung Neuronaler Netze entstehen können, das Versäumen einer strategischen Chance für ein Unternehmen bedeuten. Die Chancenpotenziale sind insbesondere auf zwei wichtige Entwicklungen zurückzufüh­ ren: Zum einen fallen durch die wachsende Integration von Informationstechnologien in die Produktion von Gütern und

It examines the status of international law regarding nuclear capacity, considering competing lega

Overview: Includes supplementary material: This book addresses the main challenges in implementing the concepts that aim to replace the regular fossil-fuels based energy pattern with the novel energy pattern relying on renewable energy. As the built environment is one major energy consumer, well known and exploited by each community member, the challenges addressing the built environment has to be solved with the consistent contribution of the community inhabitants and its administration. The transition phase, which already is under implementation, is represented by the Nearly Zero Energy Comm
