Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Many chemical engineering problems involve the welding process in various flow-forced states. For example, in power cycles, we encounter a liquid-to-vapor phase change according to a particular part of the cycle under study. In a power cycle, the pressurized liquid in the boiler is converted to steam, and the evaporator in which the boiling process takes place is a major component of the power cycle. Proper design of these components makes the phase change processes well known. On the other hand, high heat transfer rates are usually raised in boiling water, and this fact leads designers to design compact heat exchangers to use this phenomenon for heating purposes that are not necessarily associated with power cycles. Welding analysis and accurate design of components and devices require accurate prediction of heat transfer coefficient. Better calculation of heat transfer rate and heat transfer coefficient in welding optimizes design and reduces manufacturing costs. Although the mechanisms governing the forced boiling zone have been extensively studied, comprehensive and reliable mathematical models have not yet been proposed. 76 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -In the absence of approved vaccines or antivirals effective against COVID-19, non-pharmaceutical approaches remain key to dealing with the virus. If the situation shifts to a much wider community transmission across multiple countries, the WHO containment strategy for elimination may need to be changed. Steps should be taken to isolate patients and persons testing positive for COVID-19, and there should be contact tracing and health monitoring, strict healthcare facility prevention and control of infections, and the implementation of other active public health control interventions with ongoing active monitoring and containment at all sites where outbreaks occur. Now the trend is toward industrialization. If one could only manage to increase motivation by providing pupils with emotionally (and in case of physical education also physically) engaging tasks and challenges this would lead to the growth of self-esteem, self-autonomy, and confidence in their own sport/health-related abilities. 56 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -During the center-left Gentiloni government in Italy immigration-related policies became increasingly restrictive. This shift was marked by an array of anti-immigration measures, among which the Memorandum of Understanding with Libya stands out as most apprehensive causing systematic and repetitive violations of migrants human rights since the beginning of 2017. This dynamic is representative of a European as well as a global phenomenon called the normalization of far-right populism in which mainstream parties move towards the right of the political spectrum and ideologies which had been labelled as radical and unacceptable, became normal, i.e. social accepted. This thesis explores the normalization of far right-populism in the context of Italy's anti-immigration politics by looking at the discursive shifts which indicate this transformation. By means of the Discourse Historical Approach (DHA), this study analyzes the discourse of the former Italian Interior Minister, Marco Minniti - during the center-left Gentiloni government - and shows that it endorses the so-called politics of fear and a negative evaluation of the migratory phenomena. 100 pp. Englisch.
