The book covers new developments in structural topology optimization. Basic features and limitations of Michell’s truss theory, its extension to a broader class of support conditions, generalizations of truss topology optimization, and Michell continua are reviewed. For elastic bodies, the layout problems in linear elasticity are discussed and the method of relaxation by homogenization is outlined. The classical problem of free material design...

The tumor environment is a dynamic network that includes cancer cells, immune cells, fibroblasts, endothelial cells, extracellular matrix, cytokines and receptors. The aim of this book is to summarize the role of these components, especially immune cells, in tumor suppression and/or progression and describe in detail why tumor cells can survive and spread in spite of the antitumor response of immune cells. Since immunotherapy is an attractive ...

Ablative tumor surgery of the head and neck region often results in severe cosmetic and functional deformities. In these cases, microvascular free-tissue transfer enables three-dimensional reconstruction of head and neck defects. The selection of adequate donor tissue and a profound knowledge of the human anatomy and the various harvesting techniques are paramount in ensuring successful reconstruction.Reflecting current surgical approaches, th...

Verbrennungen kommen sehr häufig vor. Einige Verbrennungswunden benötigen keine spezielle Therapie, andere hingegen erfordern eine chirurgische und intensivmedizinische Versorgung in einem hochspezialisierten Brandverletzten-Zentrum. Dieses Kompendium bietet eine schnelle Orientierung über den aktuellen, praxisbezogenen Wissensstand zur Diagnose und Therapie von Verbrennungen und deckt den gesamten Bereich der Verbrennungsbehandlung ab. In der...

Properties of wave localization play a decisive role both in  applications of engineered microstructures and in the detection of cracks and flaws. The papers in this volume give an introduction into a variety of interrelated dynamic localization phenomena occurring in elasticity, acoustics and electromagnetism. In particular, these involve surface and edge waves and also trapped modes localized near defects, shape changes and the edges of elon...

Qualitätsmanagement im prähospitalen Notfallwesen wird in Österreich, Deutschland und der Schweiz seit Jahrzehnten gelebt. Die Vielzahl wissenschaftlicher und praxisrelevanter Ansätze macht es notwendig, den Ist-Stand zu bestimmen und zukünftige Zielvorgaben und Herausforderungen aufzuzeigen. Dieses Buch folgt einem integrativen Ansatz: Repräsentanten aus dem deutschsprachigen und niederländischen Raum und aus allen im prähospitalen Notfallpro...

The papers in this volume present basic concepts and new developments in failure and damage analysis with focus on advanced materials such as composites, laminates, sandwiches and foams, and also new metallic materials. Starting from some mathematical foundations (limit surfaces, symmetry considerations, invariants) new experimental results and their analysis are shown. Finally, new concepts for failure prediction and analysis will be introduc...

Forensische Psychologie sowie Forensische Psychiatrie im Kindes- und Jugendalter stellen Spezialgebiete dar und bedingen zumeist die Zusammenarbeit verschiedener Berufsgruppen aus dem psychosozialen, medizinischen und juristischen Umfeld. Damit die forensische Tätigkeit entsprechend wissenschaftlichen Standards geleistet werden kann, ist ein regelmäßiger Wissensaustausch der einzelnen Fachdisziplinen notwendig und dazu möchte dieses Buch einen...

When we worked on Down Syndrome brain in the past we have been focus­ ing on adult brain. This was a major step forwards as most work on Down Syndrome was carried out on fibroblasts or other tissues and, moreover, we introduced proteomics to identify and quantify brain protein expression. We considered evaluation of brain protein expression in Down Syndrome brain by and by more important than gene hunting at the nucleic acid level realiz­ ing ...

The papers in this book originate from lectures which were held at the "Vienna Workshop on Nonlinear Models and Analysis" - May 20-24, 2002. They represent a cross-section of the research field Applied Nonlinear Analysis with emphasis on free boundaries, fully nonlinear partial differential equations, variational methods, quasilinear partial differential equations and nonlinear kinetic models.
