Overview: Up-to-date overview of the physical vacuum properties of quantum electrodynamics.Important topic in theoretical physics of elementary particles.Access to recent literature.Available online in LINK httThis book is devoted to an investigation of the vacuum of quantum elec trodynamics (QED), relying on the perturbative effective action approach. If the vacuum is probed with external perturbations, the response of the system can be analyzed after averaging over the high energy degrees of freedom. This results in an effective description of the properties of the vacuum, which are comparab

Overview: Explores the relation between posthumanism and the performing arts and how insights from both fields might benefit from each other.Analyses the posthumanist condition in relation to the performing artRecent technological and scientific developments have demonstrated a condition that has already long been upon us. We have entered a posthuman era, an assertion shared by an increasing number of thinkers such as N. Katherine Hayles, Rosi Braidotti, Donna Haraway, Bruno Latour, Richard Grusin, and Bernard Stiegler. The performing arts have reacted to these developments by increasingly ope

Overview: Von den Anfängen der Umwelt- zu einer Nachhaltigkeitspolitik: Modellfall Österreich?Nach einem mühsamen Start in den 1970er Jahren entwickelte sich die österreichische Umweltpolitik in den 1980er Jahren rasant und machte das Land zu einem international anerkannten Umweltpionier, der auch im Nachhaltigkeitsbereich innovative Wege beschritten hat. .Dieter Pesendorfer thematisiert die politischen Veränderungs- und Lernprozesse, die diesen Vorreiteranspruch real gemacht haben. Gerade die Schwierigkeiten eines - mittlerweile unter Globalisierungsdruck geratenen - Vorreiterlandes, die ökol

Overview: In this groundbreaking study, David Brauner explores the representation of Jewishness in a number of works by postwar British and American Jewish writers, identifying a transatlantic sensibility characterised by an insistent compulsion to explain themselves and their Jewishness in ambivalent terms. Through detailed readings of novels by famous American authors such as Saul Bellow, Philip Roth, Bernard Malamud and Arthur Miller, alongside those by lesser-known British writers such as Frederic Raphael, Jonathan Wilson, Howard Jacobson and Clive Sinclair, certain common preoccupations e

Overview: Includes supplementary material: Both theoretical and practical considerations motivate the repre­ sentation of objects as certain compositions of simpler ones. In the theory of automata this observation has led to the concepts of pro­ ducts and complete systems of automata. In the general form of the products of automata all the component automata are fed back to one another. With this very broad notion of products, the realization of automata with large numbers of states by means of compositions of basic components is a highly involved process; this increases the possibility of err

Overview: Includes supplementary material: In this book, the author develops an object-centered framework with specialized support of the part-of relation based on description logics. These logics are a family of object-centered knowledge representation languages tailored for describing knowledge about concepts and is-a hierarchies of these concepts. In addition to the representation and reasoning facilities provided by description logics for is-a, representation and reasoning facilities are introduced for part-of. Finally, the feasibility and the usefulness of the approach is demonstrated by

Overview: More than six years ago, several of Rabotnov‘s close friends and colleagues from the USSR and USA decided to contribute a volume on Plasticity and Failure of Solids in honor of his 70th birthday. The celebration was interrupted unexpectedly by his death on May 13, 1985 at which time another decision was made still to publish the work, but as a memorial volume. As in any field of scientific endeavor, research confronts the scientists with anomalies; our chosen area is no exception. The ways in which failure criteria and plasticity theory are combined can differ widely among the resear
