Overview: Die Simulation wird in der Regelungstechnik zum Entwurf von Regelkreisen, zur Prozeßüberwachung sowie zur regelungstechnischen Ausbildung genutzt. Anhand von Simulationen können theoretisch oder experimentell ermittelte Modelle entworfen und getestet werden; das gesamte Regelkreisverhalten kann optimiert werden. Die verschiedenen Simulationstechniken werden gegenüber gestellt, so daß jeweils die günstigste Wahl bezüglich des einzusetzenden Simulationswerkzeugs bzw. -verfahrens getroffen werden kann.978-3-540-52942-2978-3-642-84261-0Series ISSN 0177-6843

Overview: Provides a diverse range of philosophical perspectives and expositions on Saramago‘s writing.Presents international and interdisciplinary perspectives.Combines philosophy and literature, as well as fi.The past decades have seen a growing “philosophical” interest in a number of authors, but strangely enough Saramago’s oeuvre has been left somewhat aside. This volume aims at filling this gap by providing a diverse range of philosophical perspectives and expositions on Saramago’s work. The chapters explore some possible issues arising from his works: from his use of Plato’s allegory of

Overview: Describes the probability of damages and are used to estimate the economic damage grade for each building.Determines the seismic vulnerability index by modeling the influencing parameters that regulat.This book represents a significant step toward a new contribution in the process of developing the seismic vulnerability index. This is accomplished by releasing or reducing the role of the rapid visual screening that is created by the opinions and decisions of experts, which depend on observations made while investigating the vulnerability damages caused by earthquakes. Alternatively,

Overview: Best practices show the use of tools and procedures With many checklists and hints.Companion book to the "Smart Mobility" work.High practical relevance through case studies.This non-fictional, yet storytelling, book questions the role of cars and their impact, both for now and in the future. It is not enough to just consider autonomous driving, driving bans in Europe, and combustion engines. Our future and the future of our cities and country living depend on how we can coordinate different needs and different means. Finally, we ask ourselves: What is the status of the car today and

Overview: Proposes a new way of thinking about the emergence of online groups.Presents a new method for measuring elite stability and group structuration through quantitative research on large, intact data setsThis book explores community dynamics within social media. Using Wikipedia as an example, the volume explores communities that rely upon commons-based peer production. Fundamental theoretical principles spanning such domains as organizational configurations, leadership roles, and social evolutionary theory are developed. In the context of Wikipedia, these theories explain how a functiona

Overview: Shows how cosmopolitan religious innovation formed common spiritual affinities in Europe and India.Reveals how heterodox religious movements intersected with the scientific, social and political domaiThis book provides a comparative analysis of cosmopolitan (esoteric) religious movements, such as Theosophy, Groupe Independent des Études Ésotériques, Anthroposophy, and Monism, in England, France, Germany, and India during the late nineteenth-century to the interwar years. Despite their diversity, these factions manifested a set of common features—anti-materialism, embrace of Darwinian

Overview: .Why this book? Simply because it is due. Cognitive automation and its system-ergonomic introduction into work systems have been advanced in the meantime to such a degree that already applications for operational work systems are slowly becoming reality. This book shall contribute to give system designers some more guidelines about designing work systems and associated cognitive machines effectively, in particular those related to guidance and control of manned and unmanned vehicles. The issue is that the findings on cognition have to become sufficient commonsense for all from the va

Overview: Surface science has existed as a recognized discipline for more than 20 years. During this period, the subject has expanded in two important ways. On the one hand, the techniques available for studying surfaces, both experimental and theoretical, have grown in number and in sophistication. On the other hand, surface science has been applied to an increasing number of areas of technology, such as catalysis, semicon­ ductor processing, new materials development, corrosion prevention, adhesion and tribology. . There is, however, no sharp division between fundamental and applied surface

Overview: Doing Research on Economic Practices Across BordersSmall-scale trade and smuggling are part of everyday life at many borders. These trading activities often compensate for economic shortage that many households are suffering from in consequence of e.g. political transformation processes. Despite of the diversity of transborder small-scale trade and smuggling and their wide dispersion, not only in Europe, their reception within social sciences is relatively low. The contributions shed therefore light on research in geography and neighboured disciplines. On the basis of empirical resea

Unlike the vast majority of previous approaches, which are largely based on heuristics, it highlights methods and algorithms that are mathematically justified. First, it describes how to adapt static decision trees to accommodate data streams; in this regard, new splitting criteria are developed to guarantee that they are asymp

Overview: Social navigation is a vibrant new field which examines how we navigate information spaces in "real" and "virtual" environments, how we orient and guide ourselves, and how we interact with and use others to find our way in information spaces. This approach brings a new way of thinking about how we design information spaces, emphasising our need to see others, collaborate with them, and follow the trails of their activities in these spaces. .Social Navigation of . .Information Space. is the first major work in this field, and includes contributions by many of the originators and key t
