Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -This book traces the history of what the author calls the Liberia Education Project from the time it was first proposed in 1917 until it quietly ended in 1947. The project was highly confidential, because of issues in both Liberia and the U.S. involving national security, corporate security, and concerns about the propriety of cooperation between Church and State. The project was led by the Phelps-Stokes Fund, and it involved the Methodist, Episcopal, and Lutheran Churches. It was supported by the Firestone Company and a Rockefeller charity, the General Education Board. The project s goals included production of a docile, competent work force for rubber plantations, and to block the advance of Islam. The project was temporarily halted in 1929, when Liberia became the epicenter of a yellow fever epidemic, not unlike the crisis that has unfolded in 2014 with the Ebola virus; both of these diseases are in the class of viral hemorrhagic fevers. As World War II approached, the U.S. government foresaw the need for a base of operations in West Africa, and at the end of the war, the U.S. government assumed leadership of the project from the Phelps-Stokes Fund and the churches. 628 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Groundwater seepage is a key question for many engineering applications, such as open-pit mining, design of underground tunnels and hydraulic structures, such as tailing and earth dams. The underground flow of water can create significant problems for land drainage. Seepage problems concern the percolation of water through dams and into excavations, and the movement of water into and through the soil from bodies of surface water. Dam safety, environmental remedial works and mineral location normally involve comparatively expensive techniques but if the extent and location of groundwater seepage can be accurately predicted then the amount of works and thus costs can be dramatically reduced. The changes in the seepage region could be effectively reflected through the analysis of the groundwater age using parametric simulation analyses. In this book, seepage through an earth-fill dam s body is investigated using a software model since seepage both in the dam's body and under the foundation adversely affects dam's stability. 164 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Reaction kinetics deal with the time evolution of the chemical reactions. Generally, usually not the full mechanism, which quantitatively describes the process, is really interesting but the set of those reaction steps that explain the process and its essence. The reduction of the reaction mechanism and its kinetic analysis would help us to describe and treat scientifically and environmentally important chemical problems such as chemical processes in industrial and natural plasma. In order to get knowledge about the chemical background of the generation of the products formed in methane plasma, in this work reaction kinetic simulations were carried out for methane argon system. Moreover, the reactions in the atmospheres of the Titan and the early Earth initiated by lightning were also modeled with kinetic simulations. The decomposition of a 'model material' of the perhalogenated hydrocarbons, which have important role in the stratospheric ozone depletion, the carbon tetrachloride was also modeled both in inert and in oxidative environments. This book is suitable for ones who deal with chemical processes in lightning or in industrial plasma and also for physico-chemists in general. 128 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Public space has become a popular topic of discussion recently. Architects, urban planners and designers have many aspects to consider when creating a pleasant and functional space for visitors. A design of a New Market hall in a middle- sized city tries to solve two problems. First, the project plans to reconstruct historical cannon casern complex which is an important part of city s history by finding a new function for its original buildings. Second, the newly designed Market hall brings life to the area and adapts to the scale of the historical caserns and city center. In order to meet these goals, the project is broken into three sections: (A.) Public space overview, (B.) Commercial public space, and (C.) Market hall design. This architectural design is one example of an approach to carefully enter a historical downtown area of our cities. The design aims to stimulate the local market, give a sense of historical restoration and create job opportunities, not only for citizens, but also for local farmers. This project speaks to wide range of audiences including students and architecture/urban planning communities. 104 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Marriage is held in high esteem by Christians; however, Christian rates of divorce are not different than the national average. The rate of divorce among Christians should be reduced and the traditional spiritual benefits of marriage should regain importance. Marriage can be practiced as a spiritual discipline that will benefit the relationship as well as yielding sought after spirituality. In order to understand the problem, a survey on marriage attitudes and needs was given to random adults. The results exposed areas of marital agreement and discord. Principles of practicing marriage as a spiritual discipline are shown through the survey, case studies, and analysis of existing literature. Marriage as a spiritual discipline compliments the findings and advice of leading marriage researchers. While the study is directed towards a Christian audience, anyone can benefit from the ideas presented. The author's desire is to be a blessing to marriage, and this work is dedicated to that goal. 144 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Native Americans, the original people from the vast region of North America, have endured numerous historical traumas. Yet many have been able to overcome their impoverished living conditions and maintain full-time employment. It is hypothesized that protective factors promoted resilience within these individuals, which encouraged a successful future. The present study examined both the degree and types of trauma experienced by a sample of Native Americans during childhood, along with their current levels of spiritual functioning and resilience. It was found that, overall they were exposed to significantly more childhood adversities and reported lower levels of education and employment status when compared to the Caucasian counterparts. Despite this, however, the Native American employees, in general, were unusual in the fact that they were not debilitated by their exposure to adverse experiences. While the current study cannot explicitly state what protective factors encouraged resilience, we can confidently conclude many factors existed for these individuals, allowing them to gain the necessary tools that encourage stable employment rather than succumbing to poverty and hardship. 60 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Sampling theory is an active field of research and it spans various fields from communication engineering to pure mathematics. Shannon's sampling theorems provide algorithms to reconstruct the bandlimited signals from their discrete sampling. In other words, these theories provide the crucial connection between continuous and discrete representations of information that enables one to store continuous signals as discrete, digital data with minimal error. In this book we have discussed extensively the theory of composition operators on various Hilbert spaces, especially reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces associated with positive definite kernels. The celebrated Paley-Wiener theorem naturally identifies the spaces of bandlimited signals with spaces of entire functions of exponential type. Here we mainly focused on boundedness of composition and weighted composition operators on these spaces. 88 pp. Englisch.…

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Tracing the wine terroirs with objective methods is one of the most actual challenge of the modern enology to guarantee the real origin of a denomination wine. In this work were analyzed the possibility to use the mineral content of grapes and related wines as tracers of the geographic origin. The experimental design considered eight sites coming from several areas of the Piedmont, Lombardia and Aosta Valley regions, monitoring the mineral content of the vine leaves, the grape and the wine from cv Nebbiolo in order to define which pattern of elements is able to discriminate their origin, following a strictly experimental control. The work was divided into two phases: first development of the method of digestion of leaf, grape and wine samples and second ICP-AES analysis for the collection of relevant data. By means of multivariate statistical analysis, were defined which elements could be used to trace the origin of grapes and wines and if rootstock and variety in the mineral uptake may affect the geographical origin classification, evaluating whether the presence of some elements is more dependent on the cultivation site or on the rootstock/variety combination. 92 pp. Englisch.…

The impact of scientific and technological advancements in learning is so great that it has given rise to a new discipline called Educational Technology.The ultimate goal of sport instruction is for the students to be able to play the game with enough skill to acquire the varied benefits of participation. Traditionally, physical educators have the notion taken at the face value that before one can play the game, an individual must have at least some level of proficiency in the motor skills that are part of the game. Computer assisted instruction is briefly known as CAI and is an interesting innovation in the education technology. Its marvels have been demonstrated and seem to revolutionaries the whole spectrum of education. It has better flexibility and is more versatile than any of the existing teaching methods.Although instruction is a part of each of these examples, they are more accurately categorized as uses of tool software rather than CA1. Tools of this allow the work to be completed easily. 112 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The fundamental question of objective versus subjective criteria in the establishment of regional systems in geography has long been debated. To address this conflict, the peninsular part of western France, known generally as Brittany , was chosen as a case study in regional methodology. The conflict between objectivity and subjectivity in regional analysis is considered and rational limits for the application of regionalizing techniques are suggested by factorial distributions. The physical, historical, cultural, and economic regional characteristics of Brittany and the manner in which these characteristics have set this region apart from the remainder of France throughout history are analyzed as well as how the range of the characteristics of Brittany commend themselves for consideration as significant regional determinants. A Breton Index is developed which applies various criteria to every canton in Brittany. The derivation and application of this Breton Index make a compelling case for the utilization of subjective criteria as the primary determinate for regional delimitation. 200 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Quantum computers will break the security of almost all the public-key cryptosystems used in practice. This book focus on two classes of cryptography that can resist these emerging attacks. In the first part, we introduce coding theory and give an overview of code-based cryptography. The main contribution is an attack on two promising cryptosystem (joint work with Gregor Leander). We also present a deterministic polynomial-time algorithm to solve the Goppa Code Distinguisher problem for high rate codes (joint work with Jean-Charles Faugère, Ayoub Otmani, Ludovic Perret and Jean-Pierre Tillich). In the second part, we give an overview of hash based signature schemes that are a good quantum resistant alternative to the used signature schemes. We propose a new variant of the classical one-time signature schemes based on (near-)collisions resulting in two-time signature schemes and give a new, simple and efficient algorithm for traversing a tree in tree-based signature schemes (joint work with Lars Knudsen and Søren Thomsen). 200 pp. Englisch.…

One such concern is the relationship between divine providence and evil. An examination of the thoughts of the Muslim Ibn Sina (980-1037), the Christian St. Anselm (1033-1109), and the Jew Moses Maimonides (1138-1204) reveals insights into the divine nature, the reality of evil, and God s relationship to evil that have proven to be salient and informative for subsequent generations of thinkers who wrestle with this important and always timely issue divine providence and evil. 212 pp. Englisch.…

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Generation of foam cells, an essential step for reverse cholesterol transport (RCT) studies, uses the technique of receptor dependent macrophage loading with radiolabeled acetylated Low Density Lipoprotein (Ac-LDL). In this study, we used the ability of a biologically relevant detergent molecule, Lysophosphatidylcholine (Lyso PtdCho), to form mixed micelles with cholesterol or cholesteryl ester (CE) to generate macrophage foam cells. Fluorescent or radiolabelled cholesterol / Lyso PtdCho mixed micelles were prepared and incubated with RAW 264.7 or mouse peritoneal macrophages. Results showed that such micelles were quite stable at 4°C and retained the solubilized cholesterol during one month storage. Macrophages incubated with cholesterol or CE (unlabeled, fluorescently labeled or radiolabeled) / Lyso PtdCho mixed micelles accumulated CE as documented by microscopy, lipid staining, labeled oleate incorporation, and by thin layer chromatography (TLC). Such foam cells unloaded cholesterol when incubated with high density lipoprotein (HDL) and not with oxidized HDL (Ox-HDL). We propose that stable cholesterol or CE / Lyso PtdCho micelles would offer advantages over existing methods. O 96 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book covers theoretical Proof of SPEED OF LIGHT IS NOT CONSTANT by using the method of mathematical contradiction and movement of Frame of References, signal, De Broglie s Hypothesis, Properties of Level Curves, Properties of Even function Periodic Function. ALSO INCLUDES 1. The speed of electric and magnetic waves is function of electric and magnetic field source. 2. Maxwell constant is not a constant value but become a varying quantity. i.e. , both are varying. 3. If we assume speed of light equal to Maxwell constant, then we conclude that speed of light is also a function of electric field magnetic field source. Then speed of light is not a constant value.That is a. Einstein assumption is wrong. b. Special theory and general theory of relativity is wrong. c. The formula for calculating energy of light wave packet E = hc/ is wrong. 4. Assuming speed of light equal to Maxwell constant is not correct. 5. All old experiment is right and it needs to be revised. Most of the experiments are based on different source of light which conclude that speed of light is not constant 6.fruitfulness of Michelson-Morley Experiment to be Re-think .Hence LIGHT IS STILL Mystery 112 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The mixed convection flow and heat transfer characteristics of non-Newtonian (shear-thinning) water-based nanofluids past confined circular cylinders are numerically investigated. The governing continuity, momentum, and energy equations are simultaneously solved using ANSYS Fluent in two dimensional steady vertically upward flow regime. The influence of the volume fraction of nanoparticles (0.005 0.045), Reynolds number (1 Re 40), and blockage ratio (0.1 D/H 0.5) on local and global characteristics are delineated. The effect of aiding and opposing buoyancy is incorporated by varying the Richardson number in the range -2 Ri 2. The local and average Nusselt numbers variation with respect to Richardson numbers, Reynolds numbers and volume fraction has also been studied. The local Nusselt number plots show mixed trends and asymmetric in the present range of Reynolds number and blockage ratio. The average Nusselt number increases with increase in Reynolds number, volume fraction and with the decreasing blockage ratio. 100 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Accuracy and efficiency are very much required in medical diagnosis though it is an important at the same time complicated task. The automated medical diagnosis system would be highly beneficial.This automation removes unwanted biases, errors and costs which affects the quality of clinical diagnosis. Data mining techniques especially Decision Trees play an efficient role in the classification of medical data. To know the best decision tree classifier for medical data sets various frequently used decision tree algorithms are compared based on their classification accuracy. As per the statistics of National Cancer Institute Breast cancer is a leading cause of death among females in economically developing countries and a second cause in developed countries.Early detection of breast cancer will reduce the death rate.In order to extract the most relevant features from the data sets various Feature Selection methods and Hybrid Approaches with Ensemble techniques ie., Bagging and Boosting with decision tree classifier on breast cancer data sets are studied. And a new hybrid algorithm is proposed with cascading Feature selection, Clustering and Classification to enhance the accuracy. 96 pp. Englisch.…
