Overview: Publication in the field of mathematicsJosef Anton Strini analyzes a special stochastic optimal control problem. The problem under study arose from a dynamic cash management model in finance, where decisions about the dividend and financing policies of a firm have to be made. Additionally, using the dynamic programming approach, he extends the present discourse by the formal derivation of the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation and by examining the verification step carefully. Finally, the treatment is completed by solving the problem numerically..978-3-658-25690-6978-3-658-25691-3Serie

Overview: State of the art reference on otitis media.Excellent summary of recent information that is otherwise scattered across disciplines and hard to locate.Designed to fill knowledge gaps and identify areas .Otitis media (OM) is the most common diagnosis at medical visits in preschool-age children, and the literature suggests that as many as 80% of children will suffer from at least one episode. Written by acknowledged experts, this is a state of the art reference on the disesase and controversies in the field. Recent important advances in our understanding of predisposition to the disease

Overview: Highlights recent advances of optical spatial solitons in photorefractive materials.Presents the theoretical foundation of photorefractive solitons and their various applications.Is a useful read for .This book highlights recent advances of optical spatial solitons in photorefractive materials ranging broadly from the coupling, modulation instability, effect of pyroelectricity, and the stability of photorefractive solitons, among other topics. Photorefractive solitons have been at the forefront of research because of their formation at low laser powers and unique saturable nonlineari

Overview: Bridges the gap between generalized texts and specialized texts on oceanography.First ocean wave title to specifically focus on wave breaking phenomenon.Can be used as a textbook for graduate studentsThe atmosphere and the ocean form a coupled system which exchanges heat, momentum and water at the air–sea interface. The interface is dynamic and masses and energy are continually transferred across the air–sea interface. The energy ?ow from the atmosphere to the ocean generates an aerodynamically rough sea surface. If the energy ?ow is su?ciently intense, at some points the surface wav

Overview: Arranged in alphabetical order, this book provides an understanding for those not fully in command of the language in every area of oil and gas. It covers and explains three areas. Scientific and engineering terms are explained specifically for those with no technical background. In the same way general economic and financial terms regularly used in the industry are explained specifically for those with no economic or financial background. Finally, the book explains the industry-specific terms for those who need to understand aspects of the industry but have been hindered from doing

Overview: Excellent resource of orthopedic knowledge.Easy to use note format.Illustrations include x-rays and clinical photos that have previously appeared in examinations.Includes supplementary material: .The scope of orthopedic knowledge has expanded to such a degree that it has become increasingly difficult to maintain a fundamental grasp of the required knowledge base. This is compounded by the time constraints on adult learning, with the student or practitioner faced with ever-increasing demands on their time. This text is a much needed resource of orthopedic knowledge, which will prove u

It allows both the exploration of non-trivial configurations differing widely from all known solutions and the step-by-step improvement of existing designs. ..The purpose of this book is to introduce the state of the art concerning this issue, referred to in the book as CFD-based Optimization (CFD-O). Many complementary applications are presented, so that interested researchers and engineers will get a clear view of the present possibiliti

Overview: Publication in the field of natural sciences.Includes supplementary material: .Leonid Ryvkin gives a motivated and self-sustainedintroduction to n-plectic geometry with a special focus on symmetries. Therelevant algebraic structures from scratch are developed.
