Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -matisches Gebilde, nicht so für PRANDTL. Er erblickte sozusagen vor seinem inneren Auge den physikalischen Vorgang und überschaute ihn in seinen Einzelheiten, und diese Einzelheiten waren eben die Glieder der Differentialgleichung. PRANDTL hatte eine außergewöhnliche Fähigkeit, sich physikalische Zusammenhänge und insbesondere Strömungsvorgänge anschaulich klarzumachen. Das so erhaltene Gedankenbild, das sich nicht nur auf die Problemstellung, sondern vielfach auch auf die Durchführung der Rechnung erstreckte, war bei ihm immer das Primäre und die mathe matische Formulierung als der Ausdruck dessen, was er innerlich ge schaut hatte, das Sekundäre. Diese so ausgeprägte Eigenart PRANDTLS hängt eng mit seiner Neigung zusammen, Strömungsvorgänge - wo immer es nur möglich ist - sichtbar zu machen und zu studieren. Ich erinnere mich noch der vielen Stunden, meistens nach den Vorlesungen PRANDTLS, wenn er im damaligen Institut für Angewandte Mechanik am Leinekanal in Göttingen immer und immer wieder Strömungen im Wassertank beobachtete und dabei häufig genug Ort und Zeit vergaß. Auch war es seine Art, sich von seinen Überlegungen und Rechnungen selbst den Zwischenrechnungen - Zeichnungen und Skizzen zu machen, um seine Anschauung, z. B. von dem Stromlinienverlauf, zu stützen oder, wenn nötig, zu korrigieren. 556 pp. Deutsch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Dieses Buch beschreibt eingangs den Lebensraum des Sediments für die Biozönose sowie die biologischen und chemisch-physikalischen Aspekte, welche die Bioverfügbarkeit von Schadstoffen steuern. Aus Flüssen, Ästuaren und Häfen müssen Sedimente beseitigt werden, weil sie die Schifffahrt und den Hochwasserabfluss beeinträchtigen. Ein zweiter Schwerpunkt des Buches behandelt daher die Rolle des Sediments als Baggergut und die sich daraus ergebenden Probleme der Grenzwertfindung, die Entwicklung von Handlungskriterien, Zielvorgaben und Klassifizierungen für eine Umlagerung. An zahlreichen Fallbeispielen werden Lösungs- und Bewertungsansätze aufgezeigt. Im dritten Teil des Buches werden vom Fachausschuss Gewässersedimente in der Wasserchemischen Gesellschaft der GDCh Handlungsempfehlungen abgeleitet und eine integrierte Bewertungsstrategie für Sedimente vorgeschlagen, die biologische und ökologische Merkmale mit chemischen Bewertungskriterien verknüpft. …

Moreover, it adds a graphical dimension to the fundamental economic structure of financial systems and their evolution through time. 516 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The creation of the European System of Central Banks (ESCB) and the start of the Euro in 1999 are historical marks for Europe. With the start of the new currency and the ECB the world economy also is facing a major structural change and new challenges. In a historical perspective the European Monetary Union has the unique feature that a common new institution, the ECB, has been created. This is in marked contrast to the Scandinavian and the Latin Monetary Union (France, Italy, Belgium th and Switzerland) in the late 19 century which was a period in which national central banks were created in order to stabilize the respective national financial systems. In the starting year 1999 the European Central Bank had favorable conditions in the sense that low inflation rates and an economic upswing had coincided; while this should contribute to a Euro appreciation in the long run the short term exchange rate developments were in marked contrast as the new currency lost about 115 of its value within 16 months; while exchange rate volatility has not been unusual in the 1980s the continued and strong fall ofthe Euro vis-a-vis the US dollar, the pound, the Swiss franc and the Yen has raised concerns. The strong initial fall of the Euro has created some problems in establishing the new currency as a strong contender for the US dollar. Moreover, there are some theoretical challenges since the portfolio model offers a rather different message than the purchasing power parity. 176 pp. Englisch.…
