Overview: This book clarifies the true liver anatomy and the difference between previous dissecting anatomy and new anatomy to perform rational liver surgery without any complications..A new era for liver anatomy has dawned. With the development of multidetector row computed tomography (MDCT) in the 1990s, precise volume-rendered 3-D images could be constructed, leading to new observations. Liver anatomy has since been reevaluated from the standpoint of portal segmentation and drainage veins and includes a reclassification of the liver. Better surgical results and fewer complications have supp

Overview: Includes helpful algorithms for applications in computer vision and bioengineering.Rigorous mathematical approach.Written by experts in the fieldThis book is devoted to the study of the functional architecture of the visual cortex. Its geometrical structure is the differential geometry of the connectivity between neural cells. This connectivity is building and shaping the hidden brain structures underlying visual perception. The story of the problem runs over the last 30 years, since the discovery of Hubel and Wiesel of the modular structure of the primary visual cortex, and slowly c

Overview: Second edition of a book that has stood its ground and proved its worth over the years.Strong middle ground between elementary undergraduate texts on the one hand and advance level monographs on the o.This book starts with a discussion of nonlinear ordinary differential equations, bifurcation theory and Hamiltonian dynamics. It then embarks on a systematic discussion of the traditional topics of modern nonlinear dynamics  -- integrable systems, Poincaré maps, chaos, fractals and strange attractors. The Baker’s transformation, the logistic map and Lorenz system are discussed in detail

Overview: Polymers occur in many different states and their physical properties are strongly correlated with their conformations. The theoretical investigation of the conformational properties of polymers is a difficult task and numerical methods play an important role in this field. This book contains contributions from a workshop on numerical methods for polymeric systems, held at the IMA in May 1996, which brought together chemists, physicists, mathematicians, computer scientists and statisticians with a common interest in numerical methods. The two major approaches used in the field are mo

Overview: Un ouvrage indispensable pour comprendre les mécanismes d’évaluation en finance et notamment la notion de de Fair Market Value (FMV).Définir quelles sont les normes de prudence.Savoir comment réguler En réaction à la crise de 2008, une forte contestation des normes financières dites « modernes » est apparue chez toutes les parties prenantes du système économique conduisant à un diagnostic pessimiste sur la pertinence et la qualité du dispositif de normes installé dans le milieu des années 1990. Répondant à ce constat, ce livre propose une refondation des normes de la finance à partir

Overview: broad range of materials.spectroscopy characterization section is unique.Includes supplementary material: .Nanocomposites have been receiving more and more attention given the improvement of synthesis techniques and the availability of powerful characterization techniques. The aim of the book is to introduce nanocomposite materials using a broad range of inorganic and organic solids. Furthermore, it is intended to present recent and not very common developments in especially spectroscopic characterization techniques, including Mössbauer, EXAFS, NMR. This should make the book attracti
