Overview: The articles in this book deal with energetic hadronprocesses near astrophysical compact objects, includingcompact binary systems and activegalactic nuclei. A varietyof observational results suggest thatrelativistic hadronscan be produced in the vicinity of these objects. Amongthetopics treated in detail are the question whether a largefractionof the energy produced by active galactic nuclei ischanneled into apopulation of relativistic protons and theproblem of the origin of veryhigh and ultra-high energygamma rays from galactic compact sources.978-3-662-13823-6978-3-540-46448-8Serie

Overview: New articles in social sciences.Re-thinking Diversity from a Cultural Science Perspective.Practical Approaches and Applied Research on Diversity.Includes supplementary material: This volume entails a collection of new ideas, themes and questions towards a phenomenon which we are used to refer to with the key term “diversity”. The aim of the book is to offer a cultural sciences perspective on “diversity”, to advance knowledge about it and enrich the dialogue between academics and practitioners in related domains of action. Today, changes in the demographic structures of the population

Overview: Provides basic Reliability Physics and Engineering tools for Electrical Engineers, Mechanical Engineers, Materials Scientists, and Applied Physicists to build better products.Includes information for All engineers could bene?t from at least one course in reliability physics and engineering. It is very likely that, starting with your very ?rst engineering po- tion, you will be asked — how long is your newly developed device expected to last? This text was designed to help you to answer this fundamentally important question. All materials and devices are expected to degrade with time,

Overview: The Stirling Psychology of Language Conference was held in the University of Stirling, 21-26 June 1976. 250 people attended the conference and 70 papers were presented. The two volumes of Pro­ ceedings present a selection of papers from the conference reflect­ ing as far as possible the range of topics that were discussed. Volume 1 is concerned exclusively with language acquisition. In recent years the ‘centre of gravity‘ of acquisition research has shifted from syntactic and phonological description to the amor­ phous domains of semantics and pragmatics. This shift is reflected in t

Overview: Deals with the resilience process, including experience, belief, action, and feeling.Provides an integrated understanding of resilience with the analytical-functionalist framework.Integrates experienc.This book is to elucidate personal and social bases for personal resilience, thus addressing the issue concerning the predominance of social factors in shaping resilience. Essentially, the book starts with a clarification of resilience as a phenomenon rather than a trait. The clarification also identifies the personal bases in terms of the resilience process, which specifies belief abou

Overview: Provides a complex understanding of chemical regulation of the top 17 Non-EU countries in the context of REACH.Examines the complex understanding of EU and International norms related to chemical reguThis book discusses how much other countries reflect the EU chemical regulation REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorization, Restriction of Chemicals), in the context of Europeanization theory. The main hypothesis verified in this book is that more trade with the EU means more Europeanization (as the non-EU companies exporting to the EU have an obligation to comply with EU rules accor

Overview: Rail integrity is a current application of engineering fracture mechanics at a practical level. Although railroad rails have been manufactured and used for more than a century, it is only in the last ten years that the effects of their crack propagation and fracture characteristics have been considered from a rational viewpoint. The J,Jractical objectives are to develop damage tolerance ~delines for rail inspection and to improve the fracture resistance of new rail productiOn. Rail fatigue crack propagation rates and fracture resistance are strongly influenced by residual stresses, w

Overview: Broadens readers’ understanding of computational methods in reliability and statistics used in academia and industry.Brings together theoretical and practical aspects through contributions from expert.This book presents the latest developments in both qualitative and quantitative computational methods for reliability and statistics, as well as their applications. Consisting of contributions from active researchers and experienced practitioners in the field, it fills the gap between theory and practice and explores new research challenges in reliability and statistical computing. .. T
