Steiner Type Packing Problems in Digraphs
English | 2026 | ISBN: 9819587425 | 88 Pages | PDF (True) | 6 MB
Graph packing problem is one of the central problems in graph theory and combinatorial optimization. The famous Steiner tree packing problem in undirected graphs has become an well-established area. It is natural to extend this problem to digraphs. The corresponding problems in digraphs are called directed Steiner type packing problems which are highly related to some important problems in graph theory.

Stein and Husserl's Phenomenology of the Social in Ideas II
English | 2026 | ISBN: 3032173388 | 225 Pages | PDF (True) | 9 MB
This book presents a collection of articles most of which stem from papers given at the conferenceStein's and Husserl's Intertwined Itineraries 1916-25 with Focus on Ideas II, hosted online, during COVID at the Centre for the History of Women Philosophers and Scientists, University of Paderborn, 20-21 May 2021. The aim of the conference was to contribute towards clarifying the respective positions of Stein and Husserl concerning the relationship between person and intersubjectivity, with an emphasis on identifying the extent to which their respective positions inform Ideas II. This is discussed under four headings: 1. the text of Ideas II and the collaboration between Stein and Husserl; 2. intersubjectivity and social ontology; 3. the distinction between the adjacent positions of Husserl and Stein; and 4. the possibility of combining transcendental intersubjectivity with philosophical anthropology.

State- and Property-Specific Quantum Chemistry and Physics II
English | 2026 | ISBN: 3032097592 | 640 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 30 MB
This book, the second volume of a two-part monograph, consists mainly of State- and Property-Specific Approach (SPSA) formulations for the efficient calculation of properties and of phenomena in N-electron atoms and molecules. Its bulk deals with nonperturbative solutions of the many-electron, time-independent or time-dependent Schrӧdinger equations using Hermitian or non-Hermitian (complex energy) constructions that account consistently for the contribution of both the discrete and the multichannel continuous spectra. It covers a wide range of applications, including the prediction of spectra and properties of excited discrete and resonance (autoionizing, autodissociating) states, the construction of diabatic molecular states and their use in real systems for solving problems of reaction and of molecular bonding, multiphoton ionization and dissociation (including tunneling), field-induced partial and total energy shifts and decay rates, properties of negative ions in ground or excited open-shell states, ultrafast electron dynamics and electron rearrangements on femtosecond and attosecond timescales, and other topics.

Stalin's Soviet Monastery: A New Interpretation of Russian Politics
English | 2020 | ISBN: 1433171023 | 357 Pages | EPUB (True) | 5 MB
In Stalin's Soviet Monastery Russian scholar Jim Curtis integrates innovative work in linguistics, anthropology, and media theory to develop a holistic analysis of Russian society that includes a theoretically based rationale for ignoring ideology in favor of cultural dynamics. While the young Iosif Djugashvili, later known as Joseph Stalin, was studying to be a priest in an Orthodox seminary, he took on the role that defined his political career, that of a sadistic elder who imposed fiendish vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience on hapless Soviet citizens. As an exercise in historical anthropology, Stalin's Soviet Monastery emphasizes the role of myth and ritual in Russia, a society with strong residual orality. The imitation of Christ is called passion-suffering, a practice that helps to explain the widespread acquiescence to Stalin's practices. Stalin was intensely interested in literature, and his favorite author was Fyodor Dostoyevsky. Some passages in Dostoyevsky's work anticipate key features of Stalinism. An Afterword discusses the development of Russian society after the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991.

Stability Evaluation of Slope Under Heavy Rainfall Based on Geometric Features
English | 2026 | ISBN: 9819586550 | 203 Pages | PDF (True) | 45 MB
This book presents a systematic framework for evaluating slope stability under short-term heavy rainfall by integrating numerical simulation with GIS-based analysis. It covers several key aspects, including the simulation of heterogeneous weathered soils in FLAC3D and experimental approaches for determining the hydraulic properties of unsaturated soils. In addition, it addresses unsaturated seepage and slope stability analysis under rainfall conditions using FLAC3D, as well as GIS-based assessment of rainfall-induced landslide susceptibility. Unlike conventional GIS-based regional stability assessment methods that rely on simplified infiltration models, such as the Green-Ampt (GA) model or the one-dimensional Richards equation, this book introduces a novel geometric indicator, the Slope Surface Roughness Coefficient (SSRC), to quantitatively characterize the influence of three-dimensional slope geometry on stability. The book is organized as follows. Chapter 1 reviews recent advances in slope stability analysis under rainfall conditions. Chapter 2 presents physical model tests of rainfall-induced slope failure. Chapter 3 introduces the theoretical framework and governing equations. Chapters 4 and 5 provide numerical simulations of rainfall-triggered slope failures in the Kyushu region of Japan. Chapters 6 and 7 describe a methodology for regional slope stability assessment under heavy rainfall based on the SSRC of three-dimensional (3D) slopes. This book is intended for geotechnical engineers engaged in disaster prevention and mitigation under heavy rainfall, as well as researchers interested in combining numerical modeling and GIS techniques for geotechnical engineering applications.
