Partial Differential Equations: Modelling and Numerical Simulation (Computational Methods in Applied Sciences)

Springer, 2008

This book is dedicated to Olivier Pironneau.

For more than 250 years partial differential equations have been clearly the most important tool available to mankind in order to understand a large variety of phenomena, natural at first and then those originating from human activity and technological development. Mechanics, physics and their...

The Encyclopedia of Children's Health and Wellness (Facts on File Library of Health and Living)

Facts on File, 2004

Despite the fact that the risk of childhood disease is lower now than it has been in the past, childhood health care needs remain complex. This is mainly because as society and technology change rapidly, children are routinely exposed to new potential threats. For instance, in the last few years the National Institutes of Health and the Surgeon...

Solid-State Mid-Infrared Laser Sources (Topics in Applied Physics)

Springer, 2003

According to the Encyclopaedia Britannica, the "middle infrared" region covers the portion of the electromagnetic spectrum between 400 and 4000 wave numbers, which corresponds to the wavelength range 2.5-25 gin. This range is of particular interest for many applications, especially for spectroscopy, since the electromagnetic frequencies...

Effects of Pollution on Fish: Molecular Effects and Population Responses

John Wiley & Sons, 2003

In April l999 an article appeared in Fishing News under the headline ‘Dredging and pollution hit stocks far more than fishing’. The article reported on claims made by an environmental group that these two anthropogenic impacts are causing a far greater decline of fish stocks in the North Sea than ‘supposed overfishing’ and...

Integration of Alternative Sources of Energy

John Wiley & Sons, 2006

Our goal in writing this book was to discuss the ‘‘electrical side’’ of alternative energy sources. From the beginning, we felt that this approach would be a challenge that would be very difficult to fulfill. Most of the current technical work explores just one or two types of alternative energy sources, but the integration...
