Computer simulations used to describe new microstructures approaching the atomic have become remarkably complex and varied in their approach. In the first section of this collection of articles for un...
This handbook describes advances in large scale network studies that have taken place in the past 5 years since the publication of the "Handbook of Graphs and Networks in 2003". It covers all aspects ...
The result of a fruitful, on-going collaboration between academia and industry, this book reviews recent advances in research on oxide scale behavior in high-temperature forming processes. Presenting ...
The book presents state-of-the-art results on the analysis of the Einstein equations and the large scale structure of their solutions. It combines in a unique way introductory chapters and surveys of ...
Large-Scale Scrum. Zwinne zarządzanie dużym projekte Scrum stoi w opozycji do tradycyjnych, hierarchicznych sposobów zarządzania procesami rozwoju oprogramowania. Pozwala na uzyskanie elastyczności i ...
Geoffrey West's research centres on a quest to find unifying principles and patterns connecting everything, from cells and ecosystems to cities, social networks and businesses. Why do organisms and ec...
Describes the latest developments in the scaling-up and application of chromatographic operations and demonstrates that production-scale chromatography is a powerful and invaluable separation process....
Taking the approach that experience is the best teacher, Large Scale Incident Management is the first book of its kind to use a major, real-life, contemporary event to teach key incident management co...
Traditional column chromatography dominates current purification technology, and many of the productivity gains that have been achieved have relied on upscaling such devices. However, this comes with ...
Efficient computer programs have made it possible to elucidate and analyze large-scale genomic sequences. Fundamental tasks, such as the assembly of numerous whole-genome shotgun fragments, the alignm...
The Alberta Infant Motor Scales (AIMS) provides a performance-based, norm-referenced measure of infant motor maturation. In conjunction with the manual, Motor Assessment of the Developing Infant, AIMS...
A convincing paint finish is essential for any model, be it military or civilian, aircraft, vehicles, figures or even background items such as terrain or buildings - and good airbrushing and finishing...
Adding a figure to a kit or a vignette can really bring it to life - yet building and painting figures continues to be a source of frustration to many modelers, with the results all too disappointing....
Brett Green, one of the hobby's leading names, provides a comprehensive introduction to all of the basic techniques and materials needed to build scale aircraft, from first opening the kit box to disp...
Today's scientific and engineering community has a good grasp on how to model fluid flows at macro and molecular scales, with well-developed theory and supporting technologies. Between these two extre...
"A Systematic Catalogue of Soft-Scale Insects" is a synthesis and catalogue of all the information published on eight families of scale insects (Hemiptera: Coccoidea) worldwide from 1758 to the presen...
Within the area of nano-technology, the study of nano-scale and bio-inspired integrated computing has attracted major attention in recent years. This is the first book to specifically focus on the com...
This book is the first to present a new area of mathematical research that combines topology, geometry, and logic. Shmuel Weinberger seeks to explain and illustrate the implications of the general pri...
This monograph identifies polytopes that are 'combinatorially R1-embeddable', within interesting lists of polytopal graphs, i.e. such that corresponding polytopes are either prominent mathematically (...
This book counteracts the current fashion for theories of "chaos" and unpredictability by describing a theory that underpins the surprising accuracy of current deterministic weather forecasts, and it ...
Sediments are a natural part of aquatic systems and they are essential for the hydrological, geomorphological and ecological functioning of those systems. For society they are important and represent ...
