Overview: Establishes the turnpike property for generic optimal control problems.Contains an in-depth look at the existence and structure of solutions of infinite horizon optimal control problems.Considers applThis title examines the structure of approximate solutions of optimal control problems considered on subintervals of a real line. Specifically at the properties of approximate solutions which are independent of the length of the interval. The results illustrated in this book look into the so-called turnpike property of optimal control problems.  The author generalizes the results of the

Overview: Combines mathematics and electrical expertise toward the prediction of load and renewable energy.Enhances economy and reliability of distribution network operation with operation control study.Introdu.The surge in renewable and distributed energy sources has posed significant challenges for smart power distribution network (SPDN). These challenges fall into two main categories: the unpredictability of renewable energy sources and the complexities introduced by numerous electrical devices and their interdependencies, affecting forecasting and operational performance. As the emphasis o

Overview: Collection and review of fragility curves for buildings, lifelines, infrastructures, critical facilities.Typology/damage states for buildings, lifelines, infrastructures, critical facilities.Fragility.Fragility functions constitute an emerging tool for the probabilistic seismic risk assessment of buildings, infrastructures and lifeline systems. The work presented in this book is a partial product of a European Union funded research project SYNER-G (FP7 Theme 6: Environment) where existing knowledge has been reviewed in order to extract the most appropriate fragility functions for the

Overview: Das Standardwerk für die Straßenbauerausbildung:.Jetzt mit lernfeldorientierten ProjektaufgabenAls die erste Auflage dieses Lehrbuchs 1978 - schien, war der Potsdamer Platz in Berlins Mitte eine unkrautüberwucherte Trümmerwüste. Eine Wied- vereinigung der Deutschen hüben und drüben schien undenkbar, ebenso, dass der Potsdamer Platz einmal wieder so aussehen könnte. Heute erinnert uns eine doppelte Pflasterreihe aus Großpflaster – sicherlich die bekannteste der Bundesrepublik – dass hier jah- lang die trennende Mauer gestanden hat. In diesen fast 30 Jahren zwischen der ersten und der

Overview: Modern technologies increasingly rely on low-dimensional physics at interfaces and in thin-films and nano-structures. Surface science holds a key position in providing the experimental methods and theoretical models for a basic understanding of these effects. This book includes case studies and status reports about research topics such as: surface structure determination by tensor-LEED and surface X-ray diffraction; the preparation and detection of low-dimensional electronic surface states; quantitative surface compositional analysis; the dynamics of adsorption and reaction of adsorb

Overview: Jedes Leben ist von Interesse, als ein unter den gegebenen Umständen möglicher Fall. Mit dieser Überzeugung hat sich Ulla Fix der Herausforderung dieses wissenschaftsbiographischen Rückblicks gestellt. Sie berichtet zeit- und wissenschaftshistorisch Bemerkenswertes aus dem Werdegang einer Sprachwissenschaftlerin, die sowohl in der DDR als auch im vereinigten Deutschland gelebt und gewirkt hat. Wie ein roter Faden zieht sich durch das Buch die Erfahrung, dass Geisteswissenschaft – auch Sprachwissenschaft – immer politisch ist. Das gilt für die Inhalte, Methoden und Denkstile ebenso wi

Overview: Participation in athletics at both the recreational and competitive levels has grown enormously over the last decade, and now involves a substantial segment of the population of many countries, particularly those in Europe and North America. This change in the life-style of many individuals has been accompanied by the desire and necessity on the part of physicians to define the consequences of chronic athletic training and competition to the participant. Coincident with the of public interest in sporting competition has been the evolution and growth development of new non-invasive te

Overview: A complete overview of the most recent research outcomes in three areas, legal positivism, legal pluralism and legal institutionalism.Offers reasons for removing the barriers between philosophy, socioThe book investigates the role of law and legal experts in the organisational dynamics of a population, demonstrating that law is a stable practice among those who (in virtue of the special knowledge they master) are called upon to select the ‘normative facts’ of a population, i.e. the interactional standards that are proclaimed as binding for the entire population by the publicly recogn

Overview: Where do you begin to look for a recent, authoritative article on the diagnosis or management of a particular malignancy? The few general oncology textbooks are generally out of date. Single papers in specialized journals are informative but seldom comprehensive; these are more often preliminary reports on a very limited number of patients. Certain general journals frequently publish good indepth reviews of cancer topics, and published symposium lectures are often the best overviews available. Unfortunately, these reviews and supplements appear sporadically, and the reader can never
