About this book -- In recent years, a number of different spectroscopic techniques have been applied to the study of a wide range of biomedical topics. Biomedical investigations in fields as diverse as eye lens research, the study of cardiovascular and inflammatory diseases, and the study of oxidative stress in disease can now be carried out by spectroscopic means. The nine chapters in Biomedical Applications of Spectroscopy present an authori...

Der Band spiegelt die Ergebnisse einer wissenschaftlichen Konferenz in Poznan wider. Beginnend mit der Völkerbundära wird die friedenssichernde Potenz des Minderheitenschutzes, aber auch die mögliche destabilisierende Wirkung der mißbräuchlichen, unzureichenden Behandlung der Minderheitenproblematik untersucht. Aus juristischer, politologischer und geschichtswissenschaftlicher Sicht werden neben Grundsatzfragen der Themenbereiche Völkerbund, V...

Offering a new perspective on a growing field, the text explores the many hardware implications of fuzzy logic based circuits. As use of AI increases, so the VLSI area of circuits is becoming a growth subject. The text surveys fuzzy set theory before moving on to cover a range of nonstandard solutions for fuzzy logic VLSI circuits. An overview of future trends is included plus practical examples from the authors' research which will enhance th...

This book, which is published in two volumes, studies heat transfer problems by modern numerical methods. Basic mathematical models of heat transfer are considered. The main approaches to the analysis of the models by traditional means of applied mathematics are described. Numerical methods for the approximate solution of steady and unsteady-state heat conduction problems are discussed. Investigation of difference schemes is based on the gener...

Es wird untersucht, ob DV-Abteilungen einem ähnlichen organisatorischen Abschwung unterliegen, wie zum Beispiel die OR-Abteilungen in den sechziger und siebziger Jahren. Als theoretischer Bezugsrahmen wird das Konzept des organisatorischen Lebenszyklus herangezogen, das die Evolution organisatorischer Einheiten von ihrer "Geburt" bis zu ihrem "Tod" betrachtet. Als alternative Entwicklungseinrichtungen werden die Strukturausarbeitung und der or...

The Chesapeake Bay oyster has changed little, if at all, in the century since this popular book was published. But the oyster harvest has fallen to its lowest level on record - from 15 million bushels at the turn of the century to fewer than 100, 000 bushels in 1993. What was once the most bountiful source of oysters in the world has become nearly exhausted. More than a century ago, explains Kennedy T. Paynter Jr. in a new introduction to this...

Boycotting tropical timber reduces its economic value and provides an incentive to burn down forests, making them available for subsequent agricultural use or livestock farming. In contrast, a certification scheme for sustainably produced timber (tropical or non-tropical) protects the forests by raising their economic value. Examined here the impact of a certification scheme on German demand for tropical timber. A partial-equilibrium model is ...

Slow sand filtration is credited with being the first drinking water treatment process utilised to improve the quality of water in both modern Europe and the USA. Within the last 10 years, there has been a renaissance of interest in the potential use of enhanced processes of slow sand filtration throughout the world, especially for small and rural communities, and it continues to be the primary treatment process for many major European cities....
