Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -The subject of partial differential equations holds an exciting and special position in mathematics. Partial differential equations were not consciously created as a subject but emerged in the 18th century as ordinary differential equations failed to describe the physical principles being studied. The subject was originally developed by the major names of mathematics, in particular, Leonard Euler and Joseph-Louis Lagrange who studied waves on strings; Daniel Bernoulli and Euler who considered potential theory, with later developments by Adrien-Marie Legendre and Pierre-Simon Laplace; and Joseph Fourier's famous work on series expansions for the heat equation. Many of the greatest advances in modern science have been based on discovering the underlying partial differential equation for the process in question. J ames Clerk Maxwell, for example, put electricity and magnetism into a unified theory by estab lishing Maxwell's equations for electromagnetic theory, which gave solutions for problems in radio wave propagation, the diffraction of light and X-ray developments. Schrodinger's equation for quantum mechankal processes at the atomic level leads to experimentally verifiable results which have changed the face of atomic physics and chemistry in the 20th century. In fluid mechanics, the Navier-Stokes' equations form a basis for huge number-crunching activities associated with such widely disparate topics as weather forcasting and the design of supersonic aircraft. Inevitably the study of partial differential equations is a large undertaking, and falls into several areas of mathematics.Springer Verlag GmbH, Tiergartenstr. 17, 69121 Heidelberg 316 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -The summer school on Mathematics inspired by Biology was held at Martina Franca, Apulia, Italy in 1997. This volume presents five series of six lectures each. The common theme is the role of structure in shaping transient and ultimate dynamics. But the type of structure ranges from spatial (hadeler and maini in the deterministic setting, Durrett in the stochastic setting) to physiological (Diekmann) and order (Smith). Each contribution sketches the present state of affairs while, by including some wishful thinking, pointing at open problems that deserve attention.Springer-Verlag GmbH, Tiergartenstr. 17, 69121 Heidelberg 284 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -When 'Financial Risk in Insurance' appeared in 1995, we would not have imag ined that this text would find such a wide readership. After all actuarial col leagues had received the text automatically through their subscription to the 1993 AFIR colloquium in Rome. So the demand must have come from outside of our own professional circles, we believe from researchers and practitioners in finance. Both in 1996 and 1997 further copies needed to be printed. We therefore applaud the initiative by Springer to make this text available in the form of a soft-cover edition. We hope that this new edition will further contribute to the very fruitful dialogue between actuaries and professionals in finance and will be helpful in the cultural thought process bringing the world of banking and insurance closer to each other. Zurich, 1 June, 1999 In the name of the authors Hans Buhlmann Preface The Istituto Nazionale delle Assicurazioni (INA), a leading company on the Ital ian life insurance market for over eighty years, takes special pleasure in sponsor ing this scientific volume meant for the large international community of those concerned with insurance and finance. Our involvement in this initiative is directly connected with the awareness that the domain of insurance, in particular with respect to the management of long-term insurance savings, is changing. This enlargement, emphatically notice able in the area of life insurance and pension funding, is extending to cover also the 'interest rate risk' .Springer Verlag GmbH, Tiergartenstr. 17, 69121 Heidelberg 128 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Cet ouvrage décrit une méthodologie et un savoir-faire pour la construction effective de modèles en analyse d'images. Les tâches d'imagerie y sont le plus souvent formalisées comme des problèmes inverses solutionnés dans un cadre Bayesien. Ce livre est organisé en 3 parties. Les 2 premières décrivent les bases nécessaires aux modèles développés dans la troisième partie sous la forme d' énergie. Ces bases sont les splines et les champs aléatoires. La plupart des modèles sont issus de projets industriels auxquels l'auteur a participé en radiographie et en contrôle non déstructif: suivi de lignes 3D, traitement de dégradation en radiographie, reconstruction 3D et tomographie, mise en correspondance, apprentissage de déformations. De nombreuses illustrations graphiques accompagnent le texte montrant les performances des modèles proposés.Springer Verlag GmbH, Tiergartenstr. 17, 69121 Heidelberg 352 pp. Französisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -N COMPUTER applications we are used to live with approximation. Var I ious notions of approximation appear, in fact, in many circumstances. One notable example is the type of approximation that arises in numer ical analysis or in computational geometry from the fact that we cannot perform computations with arbitrary precision and we have to truncate the representation of real numbers. In other cases, we use to approximate com plex mathematical objects by simpler ones: for example, we sometimes represent non-linear functions by means of piecewise linear ones. The need to solve difficult optimization problems is another reason that forces us to deal with approximation. In particular, when a problem is computationally hard (i. e. , the only way we know to solve it is by making use of an algorithm that runs in exponential time), it may be practically unfeasible to try to compute the exact solution, because it might require months or years of machine time, even with the help of powerful parallel computers. In such cases, we may decide to restrict ourselves to compute a solution that, though not being an optimal one, nevertheless is close to the optimum and may be determined in polynomial time. We call this type of solution an approximate solution and the corresponding algorithm a polynomial-time approximation algorithm. Most combinatorial optimization problems of great practical relevance are, indeed, computationally intractable in the above sense. In formal terms, they are classified as Np-hard optimization problems.Springer Verlag GmbH, Tiergartenstr. 17, 69121 Heidelberg 548 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -This book contains a systematic treatment of the basic principles of free elec tron laser (FEL) physics. It is primarily intended for physicists specializing in FEL physics and related fields: laser physics, microwave electronics, particle accelerator physics, etc. At the same time it might be useful for those who use the FEL as a research or industrial tool. The treatment requires that the reader has a knowledge of classical me chanics and electrodynamics. It is assumed that the reader is familiar with the kinetic theory of charged particle beams, in particular the Vlasov equa tion. All the results presented here are derived from 'first principles', and all steps involving physical principles are given. To preserve a self-consistent style, we place the derivation of auxiliary results in appendices. Theoretical study is performed with an extensive use of similarity tech niques, so the results obtained are simultaneously highly general and com pletely specified. The use of similarity techniques involves a particular way of thinking and leads to a deeper insight into FEL physics. We use a synthetic approach to present the material: some simple models are studied first, and more complicated ones are introduced gradually. We start with the one-dimensional theory of the FEL amplifier and FEL oscilla tor. Then we move on the analysis of diffraction effects and waveguide effects. Finally, we introduce the reader to the part of FEL theory dealing with the start-up from shot noise in the electron beam.Springer Verlag GmbH, Tiergartenstr. 17, 69121 Heidelberg 480 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -1.1 Life Cycle Assessment (LeA): a fascinating and sophisticated tool The greening of the economy is not a new task, but it is a challenge for which a lot of tasks still have to be done. It is known that the main source of environ mental deterioration by industry is not any more the chimneys and other process related emissions, but the products and services produced. Products are regarded as carriers of polIution: they are not only a potential source of polIution and waste during their use; they are also a cause of resource depletion, energy consumption, and emissions du ring their life starting with the extraction of the raw materials and ending with their disposal (i.e. connecting production and consumption stages). The challenge of these decades is now the greening of products and services. The new focus on products (cp. OosterhuislRubik/ScholI 1996) was introduced as a policy approach of shared responsibility in which different actors are in volved along the life-cycle of a product, each having specific responsibilities.Springer Verlag GmbH, Tiergartenstr. 17, 69121 Heidelberg 300 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Shape theory is an extension of homotopy theory from the realm of CW-complexes to arbitrary spaces. Besides applications in topology, it has interesting applications in various other areas of mathematics, especially in dynamical systems and C\*-algebras. Strong shape is a refinement of ordinary shape with distinct advantages over the latter. Strong homology generalizes Steenrod homology and is an invariant of strong shape. The book gives a detailed account based on approximation of spaces by polyhedra (ANR's) using the technique of inverse systems. It is intended for researchers and graduate students. Special care is devoted to motivation and bibliographic notes.Springer Verlag GmbH, Tiergartenstr. 17, 69121 Heidelberg 508 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -The National Security Agency funded a conference on Coding theory, Cryp tography, and Number Theory (nick-named Cryptoday) at the United States Naval Academy, on October 25-27, 1998. We were very fortunate to have been able to attract talented mathematicians and cryptographers to the meeting. Unfortunately, some people couldn't make it for either scheduling or funding reasons. Some of these have been invited to contribute a paper anyway. In addition, Prof. William Tutte and Frode Weierud have been kind enough to allow the inclusion of some very interesting unpublished papers of theirs. The papers basically fall into three catagories. Historical papers on cryp tography done during World War II (Hatch, Hilton, Tutte, Ulfving, and Weierud), mathematical papers on more recent methods in cryptography (Cosgrave, Lomonoco, Wardlaw), and mathematical papers in coding theory (Gao, Joyner, Michael, Shokranian, Shokrollahi). A brief biography of the authors follows. - Peter Hilton is a Distinguished Professor of Mathematics Emeritus at the State University of New York at Binghamton. He worked from 1941 to 1945 in the British cryptanalytic headquarters at Bletchley Park. Profes sor Hilton has done extensive research in algebraic topology and group theory. - William Tutte is a Distinguished Professor Emeritus and an Adjunct Pro fessor in the Combinatorics and Optimization Department at the Univer sity of Waterloo. He worked from 1941 to 1945 in the British cryptana lytic headquarters at Bletchley Park. Professor Tutte has done extensive research in the field of combinatorics.Springer Verlag GmbH, Tiergartenstr. 17, 69121 Heidelberg 268 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -This book describes an engineering approach based on interactive boundary-layer and stability-transition theories, both developed by the author, for calculating aerodynamic flows. The contents include two-dimensional and three-dimensional steady and unsteady flows with and without compressibility effects. The former theory is based on the numerical solutions of the reduced Navier-Stokes equations in which Euler and boundary-layer equations are coupled with an interaction law. The latter theory is based on the linear stability theory and employs the so-called en method. The book details applications of this approach to airfoils, wings and high lift systems. It is intended for undergraduate and graduate students and practicing engineers interested in aerodynamics, hydrodynamics and modern numerical methods and computer programs for solving linear and nonlinear ordinary and parabolic partial differential equations.Springer Verlag GmbH, Tiergartenstr. 17, 69121 Heidelberg 416 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -This volume is the eighth of a well-established series devoted to inelastic light scattering by solids, both as a physical effect and as a spectroscopic technique. It appears jointly with volume VII and can be considered to be its continuation. Emphasis is placed on fullerenes, Raman spectroscopy of semiconductors, surfaces, and interfaces, and coherent phonons. A survey of some of the progress in other aspects of Raman spectroscopy, in particular in the field of semiconductor nanostructures including the fractional quantum Hall effect, and in Raman spectroscopy of isotopically modified crystals rounds up the description of the present status of the field. It will be useful to advanced students and to all researchers who apply Raman spectroscopy in their work.Springer Verlag GmbH, Tiergartenstr. 17, 69121 Heidelberg 236 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -This book provides an introduction into the mechanics of faulting in the brittle crust of the Earth. It developed from my annual two-semester course on tectono mechanics for graduate students of engineering geology and of rock engineering at the Technical University of Graz (Austria). In this course, it is not my task to present a broad exposition and geometrical description of geological structures, but rather to focus on the mechanical processes that produce the structures. Although this was also the aim of my former book 'Mechanics of Tectonic Faulting - Models and Basic Concepts' (1988, Elsevier), henceforth referred to as MTF, the present book is different in organisation and content, in order to meet the requirements of the courses and to include more recent developments. Instead of following the traditional subdivision into extensional, compressional and strike-slip faulting, the presentation focuses on mechanical aspects of tectonic faulting that are common to various, or even all types of tectonic faults in the brittle regime. In this way, geometrically disparate or dissimilar fault structures may be revealed as closely related by the underlying mechanical process, and complex structures may be better understood. It may be useful to indicate how the chapters in the book are organised. The first three chapters are an introduction to rock mechanics, tailored to applications in geology. It also presents the extremely useful graphical method of Mohr's stress circle, which is freely used throughout the book to keep the mathematics to an absolute minimum.Springer Verlag GmbH, Tiergartenstr. 17, 69121 Heidelberg 448 pp. Englisch.

Scientists and students alike will benefit from the comprehensive discussion of numerous devices and their physics. As the technology matures, these devices, for example spin valves and magnetic random access memories, are likely to become widely used.Springer Verlag GmbH, Tiergartenstr. 17, 69121 Heidelberg 340 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -This book is designed to provide graduate students and research beginners with an introductory review of recent developments in the field of microscopic magneto-optics. The field contains the most important subjects in solid state physics, chemical physics, and electronic engineering. Microscopic studies of magneto-optics stem from those of ligand-field spectra of paramagnetic ions in solids and liquids, which are also well known to have brought developments in material research for solid-state lasers. As the introductory chapter of this monograph, Chap. 1 deals with the fundamental properties of ligand-field spectra in useful solids. Chapter 2 is on elementary excitations such as magnons and excitons in magnetically ordered crystals, a central aspect of recent developments in microscopic magneto optics. Chapter 3 concerns Raman spectroscopy accompanying magnetic ex citations of high energies in strongly correlated electron systems, which are related to high Tc superconductors. Chapter 4 is on recent developments in the studies of non-linear optical effects, citing experiments for Cr20 and de 3 scribing a microscopic theory for its second harmonic generation. In Chap. 5, after introducing a phenomenological theory of the Faraday and Kerr effects, we present a microscopic theory based on the ligand-field theory and discuss the future developments. Chapter 6 concerns diluted magnetic semiconduc tors, discussing formation, magnetic properties, and quantum confinement effects of magnetic polarons. Chapter 7 is also on diluted magnetic semi conductors, emphasizing the importance in growing new magnetic semicon ductors and in studying their remarkable magneto-optical properties.Springer Verlag GmbH, Tiergartenstr. 17, 69121 Heidelberg 356 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -17.11.99 Trotz des hohen Standards in der perioperativen Thromboembolieprophylaxe ver 11:30-I bleibt ein nicht unerhebliches Thromboserestrisiko, von dem insbesondere Hoch 13:00 risikopatienten, wie z.B. in der Hüftchirurgie, betroffen sind. Die Mehrzahl dieser bis her nicht verhinderbaren Thrombosen verlaufen asymptomatisch und bergen somit in sich die Gefahr einer fulminanten Lungenembolie, deren Risiko nach Literaturan Saal 4/5 gaben für die verschiedenen Risikogruppen 0,2 bis 0,4% beträgt. Daher kann allein die frühzeitige Erkennung einer manifesten Phlebothrombose und die sofortige effi ziente Behandlung die vital gefährdende Lungenembolie verhindern und zur Vermei dung eines schweren postthrombotischen Syndroms beitragen. Material und Methode Im Rahmen einer offenen, prospektiven Interventionsstudie wurden in dem Zeitraum 1.09.1991-31.03.1997 insgesamt 778 (422 weibl., 356 männl.) Patienten, deren durch schnittliches Alter 58,1 Jahre (Standardabweichung +20,5 J., Spannweite 13-97 J.) be trug, routinemäßig am 2. und 4. postoperativen Tag der Duplexsonographie unter zogen. Von 9/91 bis 9/94 erfolgte die Thromboseprophylaxe in der Gabe von unfraktioniertem Heparin (UFH, 3 x 5.000 I.E.) ohne aPTT-Kontrolle (n=297 Pat.).Springer Verlag GmbH, Tiergartenstr. 17, 69121 Heidelberg 696 pp. Deutsch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Der Herzinfarkt stellt 65% aller akuten Notfalleinsätze dar und bildet noch immer eine vitale Bedrohung. Über 270,000 Herzinfarkte ereignen sich jährlich in Deutschland und über 150,000 dieser Akutsituationen führen zum Tod. Heute sind die Pathomechanismen, die zur hohen Sterblichkeit führen, bekannt, und neue medikamentöse Strategien können hier Leben retten. Dazu gehören Substanzen, die sowohl die Gerinnungsabläufe beeinflussen als auch die Bildung eines Thrombus und damit des definitiven Gefäßverschlusses verhindern. Zeitpunkt und Ausmaß der Wiedereröffnung des verschlossenen Infarktgefäßes entscheiden über das Überleben. Hier sind neue Thrombolytika, deren prästationärer Einsatz bereits im Rettungswagen, Rezeptorenblocker für die Thrombozyten (Glykoprotein-Hemmer) und neue Wirkstoffe des Blutegels (Heparine und Hirudin) im Mittelpunkt der Diskussion. Das Thema wird breit und öffentlich diskutiert - nicht zuletzt vor dem Hintergrund der Kosten-Nutzen-Frage.Springer Verlag GmbH, Tiergartenstr. 17, 69121 Heidelberg 104 pp. Deutsch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -The author describes the stochastic (probabilistic) approach to the study of changes in the climate system. Climatic data and theoretical considerations suggest that a large part of climatic variation/variability has a random nature and can be analyzed using the theory of stochastic processes.
