Sein Schöpfer wurde zum Gegenstand völkischer ...

The manner of their appointment was invariably coloured by intrigue, in-fighting and a host of other influences, not least an increasingly potent input by the dayanim of the London Beth Din, themselves not immune to strategic self-i...

The finite element method played a paramount role for problem solving in all areas of human knowledge. Its place of birth was structural dynamics. It grew first in engineering and later in other disciplines of human knowledge. By introduction of powerful computers the finite element method becomes the milestone and the numerical laboratory for conducting the expensive experiments. In these days a junior researcher with the help of a personal c...

The modus operandi of salivary proteins in reducing the kinetics of hydroxyapatite and enamel dissolution during simulated caries challenges is thought to be associated with interaction of glutamic acid residues with hydroxyapatite (HAp)surfaces. Polygamma glutamic acid (PGGA) is the basis of theJapanese traditional foodstuff 'Natto' and is a naturally occurring polypeptide composed of glutamic acid residues, and may therefore perform simlar c...

What are the knowledge transfer approaches available to transfer knowledge? 2. What are the factors affecting the choice ...

Finding of effective constructive methods of approximate optimal control in feedback form (synthesis) is one of the major problems of the mathematical theory of distributed system optimal control. In the monograph this problem is solved for controlled parabolic and hyperbolic equations with quadratic functional in two situations, which are important for applications. The first one is the case of the presence of fast oscillating coefficients, a...
