Air Pollution Science for the 21st Century, Volume 1 (Developments in Environmental Science)

Pergamon, 2002

Acid rain, ozone photochemistry, long-range transport of pollutants, greenhouse gas emissions and aerosols dominated tropospheric air pollution research in the last 30 years of the 20^^ century. At the start of the 2V^ century, acid rain is subject to planned improvement in Europe and North America, but is a growing problem in Asia....

Simulation-Based Algorithms for Markov Decision Processes (Communications and Control Engineering)

Springer, 2013

Markov decision process (MDP) models are widely used for modeling sequential decision-making problems that arise in engineering, economics, computer science, and the social sciences. Many real-world problems modeled by MDPs have huge state and/or action spaces, giving an opening to the curse of dimensionality and so making practical...

Governance, Policy and Juxtaposition: A Maritime Perspective

Springer, 2019

This book considers governance and policy-making within the maritime sector, and focuses significantly on the dimensional context within which governance works. Recognising the importance of understanding governance and policy at times when the world is faced with social, political, and economic problems, it highlights the fact that...

Adventure Diffusion: From Meandering Molecules to the Spreading of Plants, Humans, and Ideas

Springer, 2019

This easy-to read book looks at the many ways in which diffusion bears on processes that involve dispersion, starting from the Brownian motion of molecules, covering the invasion of exotic plants, migration of populations, epidemics, and extending to the spreading of languages and ideas.

Recently, there has been a growing...

Encyclopedia of Islam & the Muslim World

Macmillan Technical, 2003

A growing number of scholars and pundits have declared that the twenty-first century will be the era of Islam. Such predictions, whether intended in a positive or negative light, err in failing to appreciate the spread and influence of Islam during the past millennium and a half, especially on the continents of Asia and Africa. Nonetheless, events...

Gravitation (Physics Series)

W. H. Freeman, 1973

This is a textbook on gravitation physics (Einstein's "general relativity" or "geometrodynamics"). It supplies two tracks through the subject. The first track is focused on the key physical ideas. It assumes, as mathematical prerequisite, only vector analysis and simple partial-differential equations. It is suitable for a...

Informatics in Control, Automation and Robotics I (v. 1)

Springer, 2006

This book contains a collection of papers presented at the 1st International Conference on Informatics in Control, Automation and Robotics (ICINCO). The purpose of ICINCO is to bring together researchers, engineers and practitioners interested in the application of informatics to Control, Automation and Robotics. The research papers focus on real...

Particles in Turbulent Flows

John Wiley & Sons, 2008

The only work available to treat the theory of turbulent flow with suspended particles, this book also includes a section on simulation methods, comparing the model results obtained with the PDF method to those obtained with other techniques, such as DNS, LES and RANS.

Written by experienced scientists with background in oil and gas...

Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators: A New Brand of Multitarget Drugs

Springer, 2006

The increasing awareness on the varied consequences of hypogonadism in distinct organs and systems has supported the notion of estrogens as systemic agents. This observation is congruent with the variety of tissues affected by estrogens when used in hormone therapy formulations on hypogonadic women. Apart from the genital tract...

Concrete Fracture: A Multiscale Approach

CRC Press, 2012

The study of fracture mechanics of concrete has developed in recent years to the point where it can be used for assessing the durability of concrete structures and for the development of new concrete materials. The last decade has seen a gradual shift of interest toward fracture studies at increasingly smaller sizes and scales....
