Overview: This book, together with vols. 1 and 2, is the first to provide an encyclopedic view of fundamental physical limnology up to 2012.The ideal resource for graduate courses in physical oceanography and lThe ongoing thread in this volume of Physics of Lakes is the presentation of different methods of investigation for processes taking place in real lakes with a view to understanding lakes as components of the geophysical environment. It is divided into three parts. Part I is devoted to numerical modeling techniques and demonstrates that (i) wind-induced currents in depth-integrated model

Overview: Gives a comprehensive look at the fundamentals and engineering applications of metal–organic framework materials.Covers theoretical calculations using density functional theory and machine learning teThis book presents a both detailed and comprehensive look at metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), a relatively new class of materials with a broad application potential. The beginning chapters focus on introducing the requisite fundamental knowledge of MOFs with respect to their classification, synthesis, functionalization approaches, and various other physiochemical facets such as structura

Overview: In studying General Equilibrium Theory the student must master first the theory and then apply it to solve problems. At the graduate level there is no book devoted exclusively to teaching problem solving. This book teaches for the first time the basic methods of proof and problem solving in General Equilibrium Theory. The problems cover the entire spectrum of difficulty; some are routine, some require a good grasp of the material involved, and some are exceptionally challenging. The book presents complete solutions to two hundred problems. In searching for the basic required techniqu

Overview: Dieser Buchtitel ist Teil des Digitalisierungsprojekts Springer Book Archives mit Publikationen, die seit den Anfängen des Verlags von 1842 erschienen sind. Der Verlag stellt mit diesem Archiv Quellen für die historische wie auch die disziplingeschichtliche Forschung zur Verfügung, die jeweils im historischen Kontext betrachtet werden müssen. Dieser Titel erschien in der Zeit vor 1945 und wird daher in seiner zeittypischen politisch-ideologischen Ausrichtung vom Verlag nicht beworben.978-3-642-98696-3978-3-642-99511-8

Overview: This volume presents the proceedings of an internationalworkshop on theprocessing of declarative knowledge. Theworkshop was organized and hostedby the German ResearchCenter for Artificial Intelligence (DFKI) in cooperationwith the Association for Logic Programming (ALP) andtheGesellschaft f}r Informatik (GI).Knowledge is often representedusing definite clauses,rules, constraints, functions, conceptual graphs, andrelated formalisms. The workshop addressed such high-levelrepresentations and their efficient implementation requiredfor declarative knowledge bases. Many of the paperstreatr

Overview: The set includes the first edition plus the supplement 1 thus giving the up-to-date relevant data for the stability of proteins.Absolutely useful for biochemists, biotechnologists, food scientists andIn 1998, we published the data compilation PROTEIN STABILITY AND FOLDING which covered the data from the early beginnings of thermodynamic studies of protein folding until 1996. Since then, the amount of available thermodynamic data has increased nearly twice. The data constitute very important additions to the information on the protein folding problem, the construction of mutant protei

Overview: Addresses mass customization from a historical perspective, looking at both mass customization in the past 20 years and towards the new frontiers in the 20 years to come.Discusses the latest research .The MCPC 2014 is a multi‐track conference featuring a combination of high profile keynotes with expert talks, panel discussions, paper sessions, workshops, receptions, and much more. While it is devoted to sharing and discussing the latest research in the field, the MCPC conference has a strong focus on real life applications. Since its beginning, the MCPC conference has had an equal sh

Overview: Includes supplementary material: Besides offering a critical analysis of the WHO definition and a review of both ancient and contemporary conceptions of health, the cooperative effort of physicians and philosophers presented in this book works through the challenges which any definition of health faces, if it is to be both truly personalist, and at the same time operational..The overall purpose of this book is to capture the essentials of human health and to propose the outlines for a personalist understanding of this concept, i.e., a conception that does justice to the personal natu

Overview: Begriffe - Theorien - EntwicklungenPublizistische Konflikte sind Weichenstellungen. Im Vergleich zur Dauer der Normalberichterstattung der Massenmedien handelt es sich zwar nur um kurze Ausnahmefälle. In diesen Phasen ist die Berichterstattung jedoch wesentlich intensiver und die Meinungsunterschiede zwischen den verschiedenen Lagern sind erheblich größer. Zudem entscheidet der Ausgang von publizistischen K- flikten darüber, in welche Richtung sich die öffentliche Meinung und in ihrem Gefolge das Verhalten von Menschen bewegt. Die gesellschaftliche Bedeutung von publizistischen Konfl

Overview: Presents high-quality papers on electromechanical coupling analysis and environmental adaptability design for electronic equipment.Discusses current technological trends and advances in robotics, autoThis book presents high-quality papers from the Seventh Asia International Symposium on Mechatronics (AISM 2019). It discusses the latest technological trends and advances in electromechanical coupling and environmental adaptability design for electronic equipment, sensing and measurement, mechatronics in manufacturing and automation, micro-mechatronics, energy harvesting & storage, robo

Overview: COMPUTER VISION is a field of research that encompasses many objectives. A primary goal has been to construct visual sensors that can provide general-purpose robots with the same information about their surroundings as we receive from our own visual senses. This book takes an important step towards this goal by describing a working computer vision system named SCERPO. This system can recognize known three-dimensional objects in ordinary black-and-white images taken from unknown viewpoints, even when parts of the object are undetectable or hidden from view. A second major goal of comp

Overview: This book is the most comprehensive book available on quasicrystals.It contains the latest knowledge and applications of this new class of materialsQuasicrystals are a new form of the solid state which differ from the other two known forms, crystalline and amorphous, by possesing a new type of long-range translational order, called quasiperiodicty, and a noncrystallographic orientational order. This book provides an up-to-date description of the unusual physical properties of these new materials. Emphasis is placed on the experimental results, which are compared with those of the cor

Overview: .Political Economy of the Swiss National Bank. examines whether there exists any systematic political influence on Swiss monetary policy. A partial adjustment model is used to derive the reaction functions. Models of political business cycles and the theory of legislative control are for the first time applied to the Swiss institutional setting. The inflationary performance of the National Bank is not explained with the legal relationship between the executive branch of government and the central bank. It is interpreted as the result of the structure of the executive (commission gove
