Overview: Presents novel methods for the design of screw processors and expandersAlthoughtheprinciplesofoperationofhelicalscrewmachines,ascompressors or expanders, have been well known for more than 100 years, it is only during the past 30 years that these machines have become widely used. The main reasons for the long period before they were adopted were their relatively poor e?ciency and the high cost of manufacturing their rotors. Two main developments led to a solution to these di?culties. The ?rst of these was the introduction of the asymmetric rotor pro?le in 1973. This reduced the bl- h

Overview: Includes supplementary material: A major fraction of star formation in the universe occurs in starbursts. These regions of particularly rapid star formation are often located towards the centers of host galaxies. Studies of this kind of star formation at high redshift have produced astonishing results over recent years that were only possible with the latest generation of large ground-based and space telescopes. The papers collected in this volume present these results in the context of the much firmer foundation of star formation in the local universe, and they emphasize all the imp

Overview: The varying cancer incidence from country to country and region to region suggests that en­ vironmental factors play a considerable role in the aetiology of cancer. Whether these factors in the environment moderate the effect of car­ cinogenic chemicals or whether they might them­ selves be carcinogenic is not known at the present time. What is known is that there are various chemicals, both naturally occurring and man-made, which can induce cancer in man. In the Western world estimates vary as to how much cancer is occupational in origin; the figures range from 1% to 40%. It is our

Overview: Statistik- dieses Wort weckt unangenehme Erinnerungen an Tabellen, unüber­ schaubares Zahlenmaterial und lästige Fragebogen. Auch die Erinnerung an die Geschichte von der Steigerungsform der Lüge, nach der es drei Arten der Lüge gibt: einfache Lüge, gemeine Lüge, Statistik, wird geweckt. Und dennoch kann man sich der Qualität der Argumentation nicht entziehen, wenn Zahlen, mit dem Anschein des unumstößlich Faktischen verbunden, in die Diskussion geworfen werden. Allgemein wird anerkannt, daß exakte Kenntnis des Wirtschafts- und Gesellschaftslebens weitgehend auf statistischen Erhebun

Overview: Periodic structures are of great importance in electromagnetics due to their wide range of applications such as frequency selective surfaces (FSS), electromagnetic band gap (EBG) structures, periodic absorbers, meta-materials, and many others. The aim of this book is to develop efficient computational algorithms to analyze the scattering properties of various electromagnetic periodic structures using the finite-difference time-domain periodic boundary condition (FDTD/PBC) method. A new FDTD/PBC-based algorithm is introduced to analyze general skewed grid periodic structures while ano

Overview: This book evolved through the efforts of several organizations and the dedication of many individuals. In 1987, we received arequest to propose a workshop topic for the Fifth International Theriological Congress (ITC) to be held in August 1989 in Rome, Italy. After looking up the meaning of the word "theriological" in the dictionary and discovering that it pertains to mammalian behavior, we decided a symposium on sensory abilities of whales and dOlphins would be an interesting topic. The ITC convenes only every five years and has the distinction of being very weIl attended by scienti

Overview: Since 1981, the British National Conferences on Databases (BNCOD) have p- vided a forum for database researchers to report the latest progress and explore new ideas. Over the last 28 years, BNCOD has evolved from a predominantly national conference into one that is truly international, attracting research c- tributions from all over the world. This volume contains the proceedings of BNCOD 2008. We received 45 s- missions from 22 countries. Each paper was reviewed by three referees, and 14 full papers and 7 posters were accepted. All the research papers and posters are included in thi
