Overview: This paper presents findings from a study of the cement industries in France, Germany, Italy and the United Kingdom. Its purpose is to determine, as far as is possible, the extent to which the structure and performance of each industry has been influenced by the control of the market exercised by public auth­ orities, by the industries themselves, or by both acting together. The cement industry was chosen for its relative ‘simplicity‘ and because it offers a good sample of different public policy approaches to the regulation of private markets. Although there are numerous major facto

Overview: Study of protein folding and misfolding Probe folding events over the time scale from picoseconds to minutes.Overview of the developments of infrared spectroscopy for protein studies.Strengths, advantInfrared spectroscopy is a new and innovative technology to study protein folding/misfolding events in the broad arsenal of techniques conventionally used in this field. The progress in understanding protein folding and misfolding is primarily due to the development of biophysical methods which permit to probe conformational changes with high kinetic and structural resolution. The most c

Overview: This book investigates Laurel Richardson’s pioneering and transgressive texts and how they have influenced the work of academics and activists from various disciplines and countries.Original contributThe impetus for this book was a public lecture Laurel Richardson gave in Melbourne in 2006. How and why Laurel Richardson’s writing resonates with so many others led to a qualitative research project investigating the impact of her work. This book is the outcome of that project. The nature of that connection between Richardson’s writing and her readers has been examined. Connections have

Overview: An in-depth study of a group of multilingual students from widening participation backgrounds on a first-year undergraduate academic writing programme.

Overview: State of the art in computational fluid dynamics and nonlinear aeroelasticity.Includes supplementary material: Aircraft design processes require extensive work in the area of both aerodynamics and structure, fonning an environment for aeroelasticity investigations. Present and future designs of European aircraft are characterized by an ever increasing aircraft size and perfonnance. Strong weight saving requirements are met by introduction of new materials, leading to more flexible structure of the aircraft. Consequently, aeroelastic phenomena such as vortex-induced aeroelastic oscill

Overview: Presents an industry-proven methodology for (software) effort estimation.Illustrated by several case studies employing a widely-used tool.Author with long-term experience in industry and academia.Incl.The main goal of this book is to help organizations improve their effort estimates and effort estimation processes by providing a step-by-step methodology that takes them through the creation and validation of models that are based on their own knowledge and experience. Such models, once validated, can then be used to obtain predictions, carry out risk analyses, enhance their estimation

Overview: Provides a comprehensive treatment of pediatric drug development.Highlights the anatomical, physiological and developmental differences between adults and children.Draws a roadmap to better, innovativUntil the 1990s, it was generally accepted that medicines were first developed for adults and their use in children was investigated later, if at all. One of the main tasks of hospital pharmacies was the manufacturing of child-appropriate formulations in a more or less makeshift way. The first change came in 1997 with U.S. legislation that rewarded manufacturers to do voluntary pediatric

Overview: Brilliant presentations of anatomical structures in their living color, consistency and position; * Clinical importance: surgical approaches and punctures of joints are covered *.Of interest to all thIn the Preface to the first volume of the Photographic Atlas of Practical Anatomy, we explained our special interpretation of the structure of the superficial fascia of the hu­ man body. The second volume of the Atlas retains this concept and further substanti­ ates its validity. The order in which the anatomic regions are presented may seem unconventional, but it is intended to reflect
