Overview: This volume contains 18 papers from 8 countries dealing with different aspects of triggered and induced seismicity. In situ observations of the phenomenon include examples of seismicity due to reservoirs, hard-rock mines, coal mines, mine collapses, brine production caverns, fluid injections, and geothermal hot-dry-rock projects. High-frequency acoustic emission studies from laboratory experiments and hard-rock mines have also been reported. Besides providing case studies of previously unavailable observations of seismicity, the present volume contains investigations of the causes an

Overview: Presents a highly multidisciplinary concept of semiotic theory.Addresses readers with an interest in the dynamics of semiotics, phenomenology, and cognitive sciences.Written by experts in the field.What do we mean by .semiotic perception.? Why should the concepts of perception and expressivity be reinterpreted within the encompassing framework of a dynamic theory of semiotic fields and forms?  Can we redeploy the concept of form in such a way as to make explicit such a native solidarity (‘chiasmatic’ would have said Merleau-Ponty) between perception, praxis and expression -- and firs

Overview: "Whatever regrets may be, we have done our best." (Sir Ernest Shackleton, turning back on 9 January 1909 at 88°23‘ South.) Brahms struggled for 20 years to write his first symphony. Compared to this, the 10 years we have been working on these two volumes may even appear short. This second volume treats stiff differential equations and differential alge­ braic equations. It contains three chapters: Chapter IV on one-step (Runge­ Kutta) methods for stiff problems, Chapter Von multistep methods for stiff problems, and Chapter VI on singular perturbation and differential-algebraic equati

Overview: Auf der Basis eines transdisziplinären Erklärungsmodells zum Entstehen rechter Cliquen stellt Stefan Borrmann Handlungsleitlinien für die Arbeit mit rechten Jugendcliquen vor. Dazu werden, den Schritten einer allgemeinen normativen Handlungstheorie folgend, diese Cliquen zunächst beschrieben, ihr Entstehen erklärt und die mit ihnen zusammenhängenden sozialen Probleme bewertet. .Die so entwickelten Leitlinien können als Ausgangspunkt einer Konzeption Sozialer Arbeit mit rechten Jugendcliquen dienen, die nicht länger normativ oder politisch begründet ist, sondern auf wissenschaftlichen

Overview: Although the last decade has witnessed significant advances in control theory for finite and infinite dimensional systems, the stability and control of time-delay systems have not been fully investigated. Many problems exist in this field that are still unresolved, and there is a tendency for the numerical methods available either to be too general or too specific to be applied accurately across a range of problems. This monograph brings together the latest trends and new results in this field, with the aim of presenting methods covering a large range of techniques. Particular emphas

Overview: Studie aus dem Bereich der Politikwissenschaft und der Soziologie.Includes supplementary material: Ina Klein untersucht, auf welche Art und Weise die Europäische Kommission Leadership ausübt.

Anhand des Diskurses um lebenslanges Lernen soll die Führungsqualität der Europäischen Kommission herausgefiltert und greifbar gemacht werden. Entscheidende Aspekte sind sowohl die transformative Komponente von Leadership, die auf

Overview: Real-time or applied digital signal processing courses are offered as follow-ups to conventional or theory-oriented digital signal processing courses in many engineering programs for the purpose of teaching students the technical know-how for putting signal processing algorithms or theory into practical use. These courses normally involve access to a teaching laboratory that is equipped with hardware boards, in particular DSP boards, together with their supporting software. A number of textbooks have been written discussing how to achieve real-time implementation on these hardware bo
