Auch wenn man nicht mehr gesund werden kann, verdient man die beste Pflege, davon sind die beiden Autoren überzeugt. Aber was passiert mit uns von dem Moment an, in dem wir die schlechte Nachricht erhalten, dass wir unheilbar krank sind, bis zum dem Moment unseres letzten Atemzuges? In diesem Buch schildert die Journalistin Els Quaegebeur diesen Prozess ganz offen anhand der täglichen Praxis des Lungenspezialisten Sander de Hosson sowie vieler bewegender und aufrüttelnder Patientengeschichten. Beide berichten über Diagnosegespräche, Palliativmedizin, die Rolle des Pflegepersonals, die...

Controlling the performance of structures and components of all sizes and shapes through the use of engineered coatings has long been a key strategy in materials processing and technological design. The ever-increasing sophistication of en- neered coatings and the rapid trend toward producing increasingly smaller devices with greater demands on their fabrication, properties and performance have led to signi?cant progress in the science and technology of coatings, particularly in the last decade or two. Nanostructured coatings constitute a major area of sci- ti?c exploration and technological...

Including papers from the 9th edition of the International Conference on Computational Methods and Experiments in Material and Contact Characterisation this volume presents the work of selected researchers on the subject. Material and contact characterisation is a rapidly advancing field and this volume contains the latest research. Of particular interest to industry and society is the knowledge of surface treatment and contact mechanics of these materials to determine the in-service behaviour of components subject to contact conditions. Modern society requires systems that operate at...

Containing selected papers on Materials Characterisation this volume presents the latest research in the field. Material and contact characterisation is a rapidly advancing field that requires the application of a combination of numerical and experimental methods. Contributions come from both industry and research communities using computational methods and performing experiments. Demand for high quality production from both industry and consumers has led to rapid developments in materials science and engineering. Current research is focussed on modification technologies that can increase...
