Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This book, written by Bell Labs researchers, CTO, and Bell Labs Consulting, guides users and members of the industry communications industry about how networks will evolve.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This book assists clinicians by providing key information on potential adverse effects that can result from prescribing two or more drugs for simultaneous use. Organized by drug class, the book provides a brief summary of the mechanism underlying a particular interaction, alternative drugs lacking the same reactions that may be considered, and instructions for monitoring patients when adverse effects occur. Interactions that are likely to give rise to life-threatening conditions are clearly highlighted. All interactions listed in the previous edition have been reviewed and updated and this edition now includes a new chapter specifically addressing over-the-counter drugs and remedies. This valuable resource provides critical advice that can be used in the clinic, pharmacy, or patient's bedside.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This text provides graduate students with a rigorous treatment of probability theory, with an emphasis on results central to theoretical statistics. It presents classical probability theory motivated with illustrative examples in biostatistics, such as outlier tests, monitoring clinical trials, and using adaptive methods to make design changes based on accumulating data. In addition, counterexamples further clarify nuances in meaning and expose common fallacies in logic. The authors explain different methods of proofs and show how they are useful for establishing classic probability results.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This second edition of a bestseller takes advantage of the greater functionality now available in R and substantially revises and adds several topics. It expands coverage of binary and binomial responses, incorporates many new sections, and adds a chapter on the Bayesian analysis of mixed effect models. It also revamps the R code throughout and updates the exercises, with solutions now included. The text explains data analysis using real examples and includes all the R commands necessary to reproduce the analyses.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This book presents an overview of methods to quantify channel processes in steep catchments. The understanding and the quantitative description of channel processes provides an essential basis for the planning of protection measures. Channel processes are mostly triggered by rainfall events and associated runoff processes. Apart from possible flood hazards during an intense rainstorm event, a lot of damage is often caused by fine and coarse sediment in the form of fluvial bedload transport or of a debris flow. Thiswork mainly discusses the topics of flow resistance, bedload transport, debris flows and the relation between magnitude and frequency of torrential sediment events.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The Innovation Factory takes a fresh look at the fine art of breakthrough innovation. Written by an experienced researcher and scholar and by an experienced inventor and entrepreneur, it marries theory with practical examples focusing on the Concept-Knowledge (C-K) Theory developed by the prestigious school Mines ParisTech. Elmar Mock, the creative engineering force behind the Swatch, passionately tells how he helped to create this revolutionary product that saved the Swiss watch industry in the 1980s. Gilles Garel, a professor of management, relates this tale of epic innovation to C-K Theory.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Careful selection of the right lubricant(s) is required to keep a machine running smoothly. Lubrication Fundamentals, Third Edition, Revised and Expanded describes the need and design for the many specialized oils and greases used to lubricate machine elements and builds on the tribology and lubrication basics discussed in previous editions. Utilizing knowledge from leading experts in the field, the third edition covers new lubrication requirements, crude oil composition and selection, base stock manufacture, lubricant formulation and evaluation, machinery and lubrication fundamentals, and environmental stewardship. The book combines lubrication theory with practical knowledge, and provides many useful illustrations to highlight key industrial, commercial, marine, aviation, and automotive lubricant applications and concepts. All previous edition chapters have been updated to include new technologies, applications, and specifications that have been introduced in the past 15 years. What's New in the Third Edition: Adds three new chapters on the growing renewable energy application of wind turbines, the impact of lubricants on energy efficiency, and best practice guidelines on establishing an in-service lubricant analysis program Updates API, SAE, and ACEA engine oil specifications, descriptions of new engine oil tests, impact of engine and fuel technology trends on engine oil Includes the latest environmental lubricant tests, definitions, and labelling programs Compiles expert information from ExxonMobil publications and the foremost international equipment builders and industry associations Covers key influences impacting lubricant formulations and technology Offers data on global energy demand and interesting statistics such as the worldwide population of nuclear reactors, wind turbines, and output of hydraulic turbines Presents new sections on the history of synthetic lubricants and hazardous chemical labeling for lubricants Whether used as a training guide for industry novices, a textbook for students to understand lubrication principles, or a technical reference for experienced lubrication and tribology professionals, Lubrication Fundamentals, Third Edition, Revised and Expanded is a 'must read' for maintenance professionals, lubricant formulators and marketers, chemists, and lubrication, surface, chemical, mechanical, and automotive engineers.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The high demand in science and engineering communities requires more efficient and intelligent solutions to complex optimization problems dealing with a wide variety of real-world problems. This book introduces an effective method of optimization known as extremal optimization (EO). In research monograph and tutorial fashion, the book brings together the fundamentals, techniques, and algorithms of EO. It covers modified EO and multi-objective EO along with many numerical and benchmark examples based on original contributions and the authors' recent research results.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This comprehensive book offers a state-of-the-art overview of the use of molecular biology techniques in plant, animal, industrial, and environmental biotechnology. Comprised of chapters authored by leading experts, the text highlights the latest omics-, trangenics-, and nano-based approaches used in molecular biotechnology. It covers a variety of diverse topics, such as chloroplast gene expression systems, whole-genome resequencing for crop improvement, animal models, human tissue banking, and molecular diagnostics, providing students and researchers with a springboard for new discoveries in molecular biology and its applications.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - While there is significant literature available as research publications, limited reviews, and book chapters, this is the first dedicated book on biomedical and biotechnological applications of cryogels. It thoroughly explores all aspects of cryogels from synthesis to applications in research and practice. It consists of three key components: a review of the unique properties of cryogels and their synthesis, a discussion of their biomedical aspects, and an overview of a wide range of their biotechnological applications.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Advances in Heat Transfer Unit Operations: Baking and Freezing in Bread Making explains the latest understanding of heat transfer phenomena involved in the baking and freezing of bread and describes the most recent advanced techniques used to produce higher quality bread with a longer shelf life. Heat transfer phenomena occur during key bread-making stages in which temperature and amount of heat transfer must be carefully controlled. This book combines the engineering and technological aspects of heat transfer operations and discusses how these operations interact with the bread making process; the book also discusses how baking and freezing influence the product quality.
