 Electromagnetic Theory and Plasmonics for Engineers by Liudmila Nickelson English | PDF | 2019 | 763 Pages | ISBN : 981132350X | 41.4 MB This book presents the theory of electromagnetic (EM) waves for upper undergraduate, graduate and PhD-level students in engineering. It focuses on physics and microwave theory based on Maxwell's equations and the boundary conditions important for studying the operation of waveguides and resonators in a wide frequency range, namely, from approx. 10**9 to 10**16 hertz.  Dynamics of Composite Materials English | 2022 | ISBN: 3030897222 | 372 Pages | PDF | 14 MB The book presents recent developments in the field of composites, investigated by Broadband Dielectric Spectroscopy (BDS) and sheds a special focus on nanocomposites. This volume compares the results obtained by BDS with data from other methods like hyphenated calorimetry, dynamical-mechanical spectroscopy, NMR spectroscopy and neutron scattering. The addressed systems range from all kinds of model systems, such as polymers filled with spherical silica particles, advanced materials such as polymers with molecular stickers or hyperbranched polymer-based matrices to industrially significant systems, like epoxy-based materials. The book offers an excellent insight to a valuable application of dielectric spectroscopy and it is a helpful guide for every scientist who wants to study dynamics in composite materials.  Digital Maintenance Management: Guiding Digital Transformation in Maintenance English | 2022 | ISBN: 3030976599 | 183 Pages | PDF | 6 MB This book provides a thorough overview of the integration of cyber-physical systems and maintenance management models. It begins by explaining the fundamental concepts behind maintenance digital transformation. It discusses key decision areas in digital maintenance management, particularly focusing on strategic dimensions of maintenance, digital twin definition and strategy, and industry 4.0 digital tools frameworks to support emerging maintenance processes. Furthermore, the monograph dedicates time to the integration of digital maintenance with the entire digital factory.  Detection of Intrusions and Malware, and Vulnerability Assessment: 15th International Conference, DIMVA 2018, Saclay, France, June 28-29, 2018, Proceedings by Cristiano Giuffrida English | PDF | 2018 | 408 Pages | ISBN : 3319934104 | 14.2 MB This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 15th International Conference on Detection of Intrusions and Malware, and Vulnerability Assessment, DIMVA 2018, held in Saclay, France, in June 2018.  Decoding Your STEM Career: How to Exceed Your Expectations English | 2022 | ISBN: 1637422253 | 161 Pages | EPUB | 1 MB This book is also for mid-level technical managers who seek to move up the corporate ladder but are not sure how to differentiate themselves from their peers. Pete Devenyi highlights ten capabilities that technology leaders must develop and nurture in order to achieve their full potential. He shares learnings and techniques through a collection of compelling, real-world stories from his own 37-year technology journey.  Day Fines in Europe: Assessing Income-Based Sanctions in Criminal Justice Systems English | 2021 | ISBN: 1108490832 | 425 Pages | PDF | 3 MB Day fines, as a pecuniary sanction, have a great potential to reduce inequality in the criminal sentencing system, as they impose the same relative punishment on all offenders irrespective of their income. Furthermore, with correct implementation, they can constitute an alternative sanction to the more repressive and not always efficient short-term prison sentences. Finally, by independently expressing in the sentence the severity and the income of the offender, day fines can increase uniformity and transparency of sentencing. Having this in mind, almost half of the European Union countries have adopted day fines in their criminal justice system. For the first time, this book makes their findings accessible to a wider international audience. Aimed at scholars, policy makers and criminal law practitioners, it provides an opportunity to learn about the theoretical advantages, the practical challenges, the successes and failures, and ways to improve.  Guy P. Raffa, "Dante's Bones: How a Poet Invented Italy" English | ISBN: 0674980832 | 2020 | EPUB | 384 pages | 71 MB A richly detailed graveyard history of the Florentine poet whose dead body shaped Italy from the Middle Ages and the Renaissance to the Risorgimento, World War I, and Mussolini's fascist dictatorship.  Critical Care for Potential Liver Transplant Candidates by Dmitri Bezinover English | PDF | 2019 | 241 Pages | ISBN : 331992933X | 4.9 MB This book focuses on patients with end-stage-liver disease (ESLD) who could possibly qualify for liver transplant. This patient cohort raises many problems: who should be treated and also, when is it too late for transplant? The authors are all dedicated experts in the field of ESLD/liver transplantation, but from different disciplines with different views of the problem.  Coping Rituals in Fearful Times: An Unexplored Resource for Healing Trauma English | 2022 | ISBN: 3030815331 | 410 Pages | PDF EPUB | 29 MB This collection of articles reveals ritual to be a unique and powerful asset in healing trauma and broken relationships. Each contribution offers insights on how, in the face of uncertainty, threat and dislocation, human beings feel compelled to 'do something', usually with or for others, to alleviate their anxiety, fears and sense of powerlessness. The editor and authors demonstrate how the imaginative processes at the heart of ritualmaking contribute to self- and group regulation by healing and mitigating the negative impact of trauma on individuals, collective groups, and even global systems.  Consumer Informatics and Digital Health: Solutions for Health and Health Care by Margo Edmunds English | PDF | 2019 | 409 Pages | ISBN : 3319969048 | 10.4 MB This unique collection synthesizes insights and evidence from innovators in consumer informatics and highlights the technical, behavioral, social, and policy issues driving digital health today and in the foreseeable future. Consumer Informatics and Digital Health presents the fundamentals of mobile health, reviews the evidence for consumer technology as a driver of health behavior change, and examines user experience and real-world technology design challenges and successes. |
