Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Phase change materials (PCM) are used in many energy storage applications. Energy is stored as latent heat of fusion through melting and is released during re-solidification. Dispersing highly-conductive nanoparticles (NPs) into the PCM enhances the effective thermal conductivity & energy storage capability of the PCM. This colloidal mixture with the NPs in suspension is called as nanoparticle enhanced phase change materials (NEPCM). A commonly used PCM for energy storage application is the family of paraffins (CnH2n+2). Mixing copper oxide (CuO) NPs in the paraffin produces highly efficient NEPCM for energy storage. However, after long term application cycles, efficiency of the NEPCM deteriorates and it needs replacement. Disposal of the used NECPM containing NPs is a matter of great concern & it cannot be discarded directly into the environment because of various short & long term health hazards for humans and all living beings. Due to rapid growth of NEPCM applications, post processing of used NEPCM needs immediate attention. This research work is a very first attempt of its kind to address this need by developing technologies to separate NPs using simple and economical methods. 124 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The main goal of teaching English as a foreign language (EFL) in universities is to improve the students' reading comprehension skill. The books that are designed for this purpose mainly include a section which provides students with an opportunity to get familiar with the basic stems, prefixes and suffixes of English language. Students are supposed to memorize the meaning of the given stems and affixes and do the related exercises in order to make general language competence over the appearance of items and guess the meaning of the new combinations of the familiar components, (i.e., taught stems and affixes) in particular contexts. The purpose of the study reported in this book is to investigate the relationship between the students' knowledge of word formation and their ability to comprehend the unseen texts. 96 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The purpose of this research is to develop and motivate a theory of passive constructions under Minimalism. This theory includes three proposals: firstly, accusative Case is available in passives; secondly, nominative Case takes priority over accusative; finally, a Passive Phrase exists between TP/VP and vP. English passives and Chinese bei-constructions are analyzed based on the Agree and Phase system in Chomsky's recent framework, Minimalist Inquiries. In conclusion, a unitary syntactic structure and derivational process of English passives and Chinese bei-constructions are developed. The passive functional category is phonologically covert in English while overtly realized as bei in Chinese. They both head a strong Phase and have an EPP-feature and a specifier. They also have the same selectional properties: they can be selected by T or V and take a vP without a specifier as their complement. 68 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Metabolic flow is based on anabolic and catabolic reactions. Metabolism begins with the ingestion of food that is foreign to the organism (containing a varying amount of smaller and larger compounds), which is broken down in the digestive tract to smaller molecules by hydrolysisAn anabolic phase occurs when the smaller molecules are taken up into the organism's bloodstream and become part of the organism. Catabolic reactions constantly break down the organism again for its functional needs. We will demonstrate the connections of processes in organs and organisms as well as the interconnectedness of organisms within the whole of living nature. Carbohydrates, proteins, and lipids are primary nutritional ingredients for humans. The breakdown of nutrients (carbohydrates, proteins and lipids) in the intestines results in small compounds (metabolites) that can pass through the wall of the intestines into the blood. Complex carbohydrates and proteins are polymers that break up into a large number of smaller similar compounds, the monomers. Lipids do not have monomer and polymer forms. 88 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Food, a fundamental need for human survival, has been gradually and widely accepted as a basic human right. The United Nations system has formally and firmly established the right to food through a set of international standards, while the national and local governments are responsible to ensure its realisation and implementation. This book attempts to capture the evolving normative content of the right to food, situating it within the broad UN human rights paradigm and the obligation of realising it based on debates regarding justiciability and enforcement mechanisms. The importance of addressing global food security from a rights-based perspective lies in the internationalising the right to be free from hunger and the right to adequate food as essential human rights for all people everywhere, obligating states to pursue activities for its implementation and international institutional monitoring and supervision for its realisation. Advocacy and publicity at policy level are the major mechanisms available to the international community for generating global awareness, thereby profoundly influencing global food security. 200 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -A number of genetic alterations shown to be necessary for transformation of normal cell to a cancerous cell. While many of these changes are genetic, epigenetically mediated changes are being increasingly appreciated. Tumor Suppressor Genes reduce the tendency of a cell to undergo malignant transformation. P53 mutation is one of the molecular causes of neoplasm and considered as 'gene of conscience'. It is found to be inactivated in 60-70% of cancer and in physiological condition the expression of p53 is low (1000-10000) in order to monitor the cellular integrity in mitotically growing cells and has short half life of 30 minutes due to rapid turnover mediated by ubiquitination and proteolysis. P53 is involved in diverse cellular processes including regulation of the cell cycle, apoptosis, senescence, DNA repair, cell differentiation and development. HIC1 is novel tumor suppressor which was discovered in 1995 by Wales et al. HIC1 has potential p53 binding site towards upstream of promoter. HIC1 was found to be ubiquitously expressed in normal adult tissues. HIC1 is proposed to be commonly inactivated in human cancers by hypermethylation of a normally unmethylated dense CpG island. 156 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Hunger is a common occurrence among a large cross-section of the human population. This book suggests that the occurrence of hunger impinges on a population's socio-cultural fabric, resulting to new ethos and values in an unfolding cultural process. Using the case of Abanyole of Western Kenya and through a comparative methodological approach, the book illustrates how behavioural adaptations among one set of the Abanyole is seen to reflect and associated with sustained cases of food deprivations. The unique use of socio-cultural variables relative to hunger as analytical tools is bound to interest scholars and readers in the social science areas. 176 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The primary political function of the free press is to act as a 'watchdog' warning against abuses of power by the ruling elite. As the 'fourth estate', the US press is expected to serve as a source of substantial information for citizens about political, social, and economic issues, to keep a critical eye on public officials and watch over the general public's interests, and to provide a forum for free and honest debate. In contrast, the other perspective is one that views the press as a 'lapdog', a close companion of established power. According to this perspective, rather than serve as critic, the political function of the news media is to act as a more or less voluntary arm of established political and economic power. The purpose of this book is to try to test, through the study of the US mainstream press' reporting on Chile in the 1970's, whether the 'fourth estate' functions primarily as an instrument providing constraints on the power elite, or whether it serves to promote the interests of the powerful. This book aims at helping academic political science and media researchers rethink the ambiguous relationship between the media and government in the field of foreign policy. 548 pp. Englisch.
