This book explores how human geography can engage with a variety of important policy issues through linking together GIS and spatial analysis. It considers how geography can 'outreach' to the wider community and demonstrates the importance of applied GIS and spatial analysis for solving real world problems in both the public and private sector.

The book is divided into two sections. The first section introduces basic theoretical material from a social science perspective. This section explores how spatial data is handled in a GIS, forms of geocoding, geoprocessing and...

Elektromechanische Systeme aus elektrischen, mechanischen und akustischen Teilsystemen haben im Prazisionsgeratebau, in der Sensor- und Aktortechnik, der Elektroakustik sowie in der Medizintechnik eine grosse Bedeutung. Die Vermittlung einer anschaulichen, ingenieurmassigen Entwurfsmethode fur diese Systeme auf der Grundlage einer schaltungstechnischen Darstellung ist das Hauptanliegen des Fachbuchs. Es ermoglicht einen raschen Einstieg in die mechanischen, akustischen, hydraulischen und thermischen Problemstellungen durch die Anwendung des schaltungstechnischen Grundwissens. Die 2....

Die vielfältigen industriellen Einsatzmöglichkeiten von piezoelektrischen Biegewandlern als Aktoren und hochpräzise Positioniersysteme erfordern eine an die jeweilige Aufgabe angepasste Leistungsfähigkeit. Dies setzt voraus, dass bereits in der Entwurfs- und Entwicklungsphase das statische und dynamische Verhalten solcher Aktor-Strukturen in der jeweiligen Anwendung vorhergesagt werden kann. Die geometrischen Abmessungen der einzelnen aktiven und passiven Schichten, ihre Abfolge im Schichtsystem und ihre elasto- und elektromechanischen Eigenschaften sind dabei Schlüsselfaktoren....

This book describes the application of piezoelectric materials, particularly piezoceramics, in the wide field of actuators and sensors. It gives a step-by-step introduction to the structure and mechanics of piezoelectric beam bending actuators in multilayer technology, which are of increasing importance for industrial applications. The book presents the suitability of the developed theoretical aspects in a memorable way.

An important aim of the presented book is the explanation of the application of piezoelectric materials such as piezoceramics within the wide field of electromechanical actuators and sensor technology. The reader should be presented the physical and mechanical properties of piezoceramics in a distinct way. In a next step the reader is gradually introduced into the mechanical description of the static behavior of piezoelectric multilayer beam bending actuators being indispensable for industrial applications. Thereby, the reader gains insights, that are of great importance for the physical...

Written by leading international authors, this timely atlas explores Europe's society, culture, economy, politics, and environment using state of the art mapping techniques. With maps covering over eighty topics ranging from life expectancy to greenhouse gas emissions, gross domestic product, and Eurovision voting, The Human Atlas of...

Haroun Soussan, narrator of Outcast and a Jewish convert to Islam, is a civil engineer and historian who's just completed his life's work, The Jews and History. The book opens with him getting an award from Saddam Hussein during the time of the Iran-Iraq war. Written in the form of an autobiography, the narrative moves in and out of the present, the recent, and more distant past, providing a unique and intimate chronicle of Iraq's contemporary political history.
