This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -While Benin, like many African countries, has always suffered from huge gap between electricity supply and demand, the violent shock of COVID-19 combined with climate attacks generate management decrepit electricity supply and demand. It should be noted that the weakness of countries and continental electricity production is explained, among other things, by years of lack of substantial investment in the sector and by the non-integration of the climate change factor into the demand management policies. The result at the end of the race is appalling. Insufficient electricity production at a cost not at all affordable for the overwhelming majority. This situation is at the root of deep inequalities that affect women, young people, vulnerable communities, the disabled, etc. Nevertheless, it is possible to reach optimal energy access linked with sustainable solutions inducting strong economic growth and erasing inequalities. Thus, optimal management of electricity supply and demand can play a pivotal and catalytic role in reducing negative impacts of COVID 19 contributing inequalities exacerbation. The current work provides a new approach inspiring innovation and decision-making. 68 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The main purpose of diagnosing the condition of the electrostatic precipitator should be to present a series of future operating activities that make it possible to predict unfavourable situations in the plant and reduce the risk of damage, which ultimately lead to the plant being excluded from further operation. Maintaining the reliability of power units is important for the correct operation of the national power system in Poland. Power system failures generate serious effects in the form of a lack of access to electricity in the area covered by the failure. Diagnosing the condition of power units should enable verification of the degradation process or also identifying damage caused by non-stationary operation of plants. The scope and methods of diagnosing technical condition of power units should be based, among other things, on the analysis of results of work conditions and unit failure. Determining the limits of electrostatic precipitator fitness status should be based on two main issues.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The teacher's job is to be a facilitator and mediator for the occurrence of learning with an emphasis on multi-interaction. In anticipating and dealing with learning that takes place effectively, optimally, and challenges students, teachers must be good at making stages of learning activities that allow students to be actively involved through various forms of interaction (multi-interaction) by utilizing various existing technologies. Often teachers in carrying out learning only use one- and/or two-way interactions so that a sense of learning saturation arises in students. This Model Book is present as an alternative in improving the quality of learning and overcoming learning problems.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The involvement of oxidized proteins to the development of biological diseases has been studied for a few decades, but the effects and the mechanisms of protein oxidation in food systems are largely unknown. Protein oxidation is defined as the covalent modification of a protein induced either by the direct reactions with reactive oxygen species (ROS) or indirect reactions with secondary by-products of oxidative stress. ROS can cause oxidation in both amino acid side chains and protein backbones, resulting in protein fragmentation or protein-protein cross-linkages. Although all amino acids can be modified by ROS, cysteine, and methionine that are the most susceptible to oxidative changes due to high reaction susceptibility of the sulfur group in those amino acids. Oxidative modifications of proteins can change their physical and chemical properties. Increased levels of protein oxidation have been associated with various biological consequences, including diseases and aging, in humans and other animal species. The basic principles and products of protein oxidation and the implications of protein oxidation in food systems, especially in meat, are discussed in this book. 96 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -With this work we introduce a system of idealogical metaphysics which is primarily born out of an epistemological interpretation of Quantum Mechanics (QM). Our interpretive stance follows a long line of consciousness (what we call mind) based interpretations, or explanations, for the of the so-called measurement problem in QM, a position held by physicists (and mathematicians) such as von Neumann (1932), Wigner (1963, 1967), Bohm (1980, 1993), Stapp (2001, 2009, 2011), Manousakis (2006), Blaha (2009), and Pradhan (2012) among others. Given this perspective, we conceive of the measurement problem to be a function of the boundary condition between mind and matter itself, a condition we wish to shed light on by abstracting the problem of measurement itself out of physics proper and (more directly) into the domain of philosophy explicitly using modern conceptions of epistemology and information theory, as well as quantum measurement theory, to construct a system of metaphysics, based upon knowledge and information processing and theory, that sheds light on the relationship between mind and matter generally. 128 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The book Brinkmanship: Fear Creation as a Bargaining Tool explains how fear creation can be used to drive an argument to the brink, and by so doing compel parties in a conflict to accept or reject negotiated settlements. Two diametrically opposed kinds of fears may be created. The first and most commonly used since World War I emphasizes the cost of Mutually Hurting Stalemates (MHS) and the associated danger of sliding 'beyond the brink.' The second, popularized by peace economists, is creating fear around the cost of losing Mutually Exciting Opportunities (MEOs). Applying the MHS may cause a conflict to become intractable, especially where at least one of the conflict parties has a true-believer culture. However, creating fear around the MEOs can promote cooperative and integrative resolutions because the urge to collaborate and exchange is more human than suffering to destroy others. Using the frosty United States-North Korea relationship as an example, it is explained how the application of MEOs can lead to improved relationships among countries when mediators are able to do their jobs well. 56 pp. Englisch.…
