There has been much interest recently in the subject of patterns in permutations and words, a new branch of combinatorics with its roots in the works of Rotem, Rogers and Knuth. This comprehensive reference volume collects the main results in the field.

Composite Insulators for Electric Power Networks provides an overview of composite insulators for power transmission. The text serves as a guide for readers on topics like material selection, properties and design, applications, and the recycling of these composite materials.

This book focuses on a current controversy in teaching foreign language grammar, namely the contribution of production-oriented and comprehension-based instruction. It provides a thorough overview of issues related to learning and teaching grammar.

The second, strongly enlarged edition of this textbook gives a substantial insight into the characteristics and the design of digital filters. It includes an introduction to the theory of continuous-time systems and the design methods for analog filters.

Ischemic optic neuropathy is one of the major causes of visual impairment or loss of vision. In this book, the leading authority in the field describes in detail the current knowledge about the different forms of this often devastating disease.

Companies and financial institutions are employing operational information systems in an efficient way. While they have consolidated a strong level of knowledge in management information systems, there is still a lack of knowledge on the right way to apply customer relationship management (CRM) systems under a business perspective.

This monograph covers phenomena of deformation and machining of granular media: macroscopic particles of different size, shape, and surface properties which typically exhibit behavior similar to fluids, as well as the behavior of solids under deformation.

The global perspective of the findings is underlined by the analysis of 500 species from the Caucasus, the Rocky Mountains and Andes, the subtropical zone on the Canary Islands, the arid zones in the Sahara, in Eurasia, Arabia and Southwest North America, and the boreal and arctic zones in Eurasia and Canada.

This book is a systematic survey of the knowledge accumulated in this field in the last thirty years. It includes material on the thermodynamic aspects of the polymers, the theory of the mechanism of charge transport processes, and the chemical and physical properties of these compounds.

This book examines the effect of human activities on atmospheric ozone. It details the role of remote sensing techniques in understanding the effects of human activities on atmospheric ozone as well as in the development of social and political awareness.

Covering a vital aspect of the Semantic Web, itself the subject of virtually exponential increases in research dollars, this volume focuses on high-performance data management and the processing of queries in complex, real-world web applications.

Here is a systematic presentation of the postulates, theorems and principles of mathematical theories of plasticity and creep in metals, and their applications. Special attention is paid to analysis of the advantages and shortcomings of the classical theories.

Updated and revised in its new edition, this book provides essential information on bulk and sheet metal forming including cold, warm and hot bulk forming and thixoforming, deep drawing, flange forming, stretch drawing, internal high-pressure forming and more.

Ultrafast spectroscopy of semiconductors and semiconductor nanostructures is currently one of the most exciting areas of research in condensed-matter physics. it discusses the physics of relaxation, tunneling and transport dynamics in semiconductors and semiconductor nanostructures following excitation by femtosecond laser pulses.

Quantum Networks is focused on density matrix theory cast into a product operator representation, particularly adapted to describing networks of finite state subsystems. This approach is important for understanding non-classical aspects such as single subsystem and multi-subsystem entanglement.

This second edition has been entirely restructured and almost doubled in size, in order to improve clarity and account for the great progress achieved in the field over the last 15 years. "This is not a handbook for observers.

Purified natural products are required for complete spectro scopic identification and full characterization of new compo unds, for biological testing and for the supply of pharmaceuti cals, standards, and starting materials for synthetic work.

This book examines gauge theory as a tool for describing the fundamental forces acting in the universe: gravitative, electromagnetic, weak interaction and strong interaction. The author used gauge theory to build a bridge between mathematicians and physicists.

This book offers a framework for analyzing the increased economic integration of countries which is mainly driven by multinational enterprises.

Relativity plays an important role in atomic nuclei, and, since the early 1970s, there has been increasing interest in, and literature on, the nucleus as a relativistic system. Directed to advanced students and researchers, it explains both the underlying relativistic theory and compares predictions with actual experiments.

Foreword Over the past decades, Piero Risoluti has built up an intimate knowl edge of the nuclear industry - in particular of nuclear waste man agement.

In the first part of this book, we treat interacting and small open economies. We start from the closed economy, consider large open economies in a fixed exchange rate system, small open economies subject to high capital mobility, and finally two large interacting economies like the USA and Euroland.

This book is divided into chapters covering instrumentation, sedimentation velocity runs, density gradient runs, application examples and future developments. In particular, the detailed application chapter demonstrates the versatility and power of AUC by means of many interesting and important industrial examples.
