Overview: Includes supplementary material: .Part textbook, part exploratory work, this book aims to raise the awareness of students, physicists, and engineers in turbulence on the modeling of gravitationally induced turbulent mixing flows as produced, for instance, by Rayleigh-Taylor instabilities. The discussion is centered on the differences between single-fluid and two-fluid approaches, and it is illustrated with a 0D analysis of two specific elementary models in common use. Important deviations are shown to appear on many features, among others the prominence of directed energy, the simult

Overview: .Silicon-Based Millimeter-Wave Devices. describes field-theoretical methods for the design and analysis of planar waveguide structures and antennas. The principles and limitations of transit-time devices with different injection mechanisms are discussed, as are aspects of fabrication and characterization. The physical properties of silicon Schottky contacts and diodes are treated in a separate chapter. Two chapters cover the silicon/germanium devices: physics and RF properties of the heterobipolar transistor and quantum effect devices such as the resonant tunneling element are descri

Overview: Tabellarische Darstellung zum schnellen ZugriffJedes Jahr wird das Steuerrecht durch Reformen des Gesetzgebers, die Finanzrechtsprechung und neue Verwaltungsanweisungen und Verfügungen verändert. Es wird damit noch komplexer und beratungsintensiver. Das Erarbeiten der jeweils aktuellen Rechtslage erfordert immer größeren Arbeitseinsatz..Das vorliegende Buch bietet insoweit eine wertvolle Hilfestellung. Aus den unzähligen Neuerungen des Jahres 2008 werden die besonders praxisrelevanten Änderungen der Steuergesetze, der Rechtsprechung und der Verwaltungsauffassungen ausgewählt und in b

Overview: Shelley and Vitality reassesses Percy Shelley‘s engagement with early nineteenth-century science and medicine, specifically his knowledge and use of theories on the nature of life presented in the debate between surgeons John Abernethy and William Lawrence. Sharon Ruston offers new biographical information to link Shelley to a medical circle and explores the ways in which Shelley exploits the language and ideas of vitality. Major canonical works are reconsidered to address Shelley‘s politicised understanding of contemporary scientific discourse.978-1-137-01112-1978-0-230-50518-6

Overview: Considers Africa’s economy independently to other countries’ economies and regions of the world.Presents a detailed elaboration of Africa’s specifics and tendencies of growth and development.Develops This edited volume explores and dissects Africa‘s economic growth and sustainable development using an optimal conceptual model of the progressive continent‘s development up to and until 2030. Africa is studied not against the background of developed (OECD) and leading developing (e.g. BRICS) countries, but as a separate economy and as a self-sufficient region which follows its own prior

Overview: Serves as a valuable resource for policy makers and also postgraduate students conducting research using systems analysis thinking.Provides an analytical foundation for the management and governance oThis book, which contains a collection of review articles as well as focus on evidence-based policy making, will serve as a valuable resource not just for all postgraduate students conducting research using systems analysis thinking but also for policy makers. To our knowledge, a book of this nature which also has a strong African focus is currently not available. The book examines envir

Overview: Eine Sozialverträglichkeitsprüfung (SVP) ist ein Instrument, mit dessen Hilfe die Auswirkungen von gesellschaftlichen Entscheidungen für eine bestimmte (benachteiligte) Bevölkerungsgruppe bereits vor deren Umsetzung abgeschätzt werden sollen. So kommt der SVP eine wichtige Aufgabe im Kampf gegen Armut und soziale Ausgrenzung zu. Der Band versammelt Beiträge eines Seminars der Salzburg Ethik Initiative und des Zentrums für Ethik und Armutsforschung der Universität Salzburg. Die AutorInnen erläutern die Möglichkeiten der Umsetzung, die gesellschaftlichen Voraussetzungen und die Vorbild

Overview: Zahlreiche Einzelfälle zur Veranschaulichung der Materie.Übersichten, Schaubilder, Tabellen und Grafiken liefern gut verständliche Zusammenfassungen.Wiederholungs- und Vertiefungsfragen zur Verständni.Das Buch enthält eine Einführung in die Grundlagen des strafrechtlichen Sanktionssystems. Im Mittelpunkt stehen die rechtlichen Anwendungsvoraussetzungen der einzelnen Sanktionsarten und die Grundlagen ihrer Bemessung. Der kriminalpolitische Hintergrund sowie die kriminologischen Befunde zur Praxis der Sanktionsverhängung und -vollstreckung werden einbezogen. Der Reform des strafrechtli

Overview: Research input constitutes a key component in the developmentof international environmental regime formation. Science-policyinteraction is, however, complex and difficult, particularly becauseit is an encounter between two distinct systems of behaviour: thescientific ideal of impartiality and disinterestedness and thepolitical reality of interest realisation and strategic behaviour.This study analyses the extent to which and how the.institutional. .framework. within which thescience-policy dialogue takes place - through consciousdesign - can be utilised as an instrument to handle obs

Overview: Unique and consistent mathematical treatise.Deductive description of equilibrium statistics and thermodynamics.Non-equilibrium statistics.Offers all equations and deductions necessary.Describes the br.The completely revised new edition of the classical book on Statistical Mechanics covers the basic concepts of equilibrium and non-equilibrium statistical physics. In addition to a deductive approach to equilibrium statistics and thermodynamics based on a single hypothesis - the form of the microcanonical density matrix - this book treats the most important elements of non-equilibrium p

Overview: Are selfies political?.What does selfie-based activism look like?.Who has the ability to make politicised selfies? Who lacks freedom to do so?.How are such selfies consumed, and by whom?This collection reflects on the emerging phenomenon of ‘selfie citizenship’, which capitalises on individual visibility and agency, at the time when citizenship itself is increasingly governed through biometrics and large-scale dataisation. Today we are witnessing a global rise of politicised selfies: photographs of individuals with handwritten notes or banners, various selfie memes and hashtag action

Overview: A number of factors have come together in the last couple of decades to define the emerging interdisciplinary field of structural molecular biology. First, there has been the considerable growth in our ability to obtain atomic-resolution structural data for biological molecules in general, and proteins in particular. This is a result of advances in technique, both in x-ray crystallography, driven by the development of electronic detectors and of synchrotron radiation x-ray sources, and by the development ofNMR techniques which allow for inference of a three-dimensional structure of a
