Overview: This two-volume work treats what we know, what we think we now and what we think we do not know on an equal footing, as much as possible. It teaches to ask the right questions rather than to expect toWe read in order to know we are not alone, I once heard, and perhaps it could also be suggested that we write in order not to be alone, to endorse, to promote continuity. The idea for this book took about ten years to materialize, and it is the author’s hope that its content will constitute the beginning of further explorations beyond current horizons. More speci cally, this book appeals

Overview: The Advanced Research Workshop on QeD Hard Hadronic Processes was held on 8-13 October 1987 at Hotel on the Cay, St. Croix, U. S. Virgin Islands. The underlying theme of the workshop, the first in a series, was an examination, both theoretical and experimental, of the state of understanding of Quantum Chromodynamics. Because of the pervasiveness of the strong interactions in all aspects of high energy physics, QCD is central to many problems in elementary particle physics. Therefore, this workshop was organized to provide a forum in which the theory Quantum Chromodynamics cou 1 d be

Overview: The year 1985 represents a special anniversary for people dealing with Ooulomb systems. 200 years ago, in 1785, Oharles Auguste de Ooulomb (1736-1806) found "Ooulomb‘s law" for the interaction force between charged particles. The authors want to dedicate this book to the honour of the great pioneer of electrophysics. Recent statistical mechanics is mainly restricted to systems of neutral particles. Except for a few monographs and survey articles (see, e. g., IOHIMARU, 1973, 1982; KUDRIN, 1974; KLIMONTOVIOH, 1975; EBELING, KRAEFT and KREMP, 1976, 1979; KALMAN and CARINI, 1978; BAUS an

Overview: Aufgrund der hohen Dynamik und Komplexität im Kontext der Fahrzeugentstehung stellt die Produktqualität eine wesentliche Herausforderung für die langfristige Wettbewerbsfähigkeit von Automobilherstellern dar. Die Produktqualität wird dabei insbesondere durch Entscheidungen beeinflusst, die bereits in den frühen Phasen der Automobilentwicklung getroffen werden. Untersuchungen zeigen, dass die Verfügbarkeit relevanter qualitätsbezogener Informationen vor diesem Hintergrund einen erheblichen Beitrag zur Entscheidungsfindung leisten kann. Das Ziel der Forschungsarbeit liegt daher in der

Overview: Quality Assurance in Ceramic Industries represents the proceedings of a conference held at the New York State College of Ceramics, Alfred University, June 4-7, 1978, as fifteenth in a continuing series rotated annually among Alfred University, North Carolina State University, Notre Dame University and the University of California, Berkeley. The first four chapters develop the rationale for major efforts toward an integrated quality assurance program in the ceramic plant, to effect economy in manufacture, to reduce process losses and to improve product reliability and overall profitab
