The fifth of nine volumes prepared by the United Nations examining different aspects of the development of manganese nodule resources. The location of a processing plant for manganese nodules depends more on the availability and cost of complementary inputs (e.g. energy and chemicals) than on the tr

This volume demonstrates that boundary element methods are both elegant and efficient in their application to time dependent time harmonic problems in engineering and therefore worthy of considerable development.

The author presents a topological approach to the problem of robustness of dynamic feedback control. First the gap-topology is introduced as a distance measure between systems. In this topology, stability of the closed loop system is a robust property. Furthermore, it is possible to solve the problem of optimally robust control in this setting. The book can be divided into two parts. The first chapters form an introduction to the topological approach towards robust stabilization. Although of theoretical nature, only general mathematical knowledge is required from the reader. The second part...

Soil acidity is a major limitation to crop production in many parts of the world. Plant growth inhibition results from a combination of factors, including aluminum, manganese, and hydrogen ion toxicities and deficiencies of essential elements, particularly calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, and molybdenum. Agricultural management practices and acid precipitation have increased acid inputs into the ecosystem and heightened concern about soil acidity problems. While application of lime has proved to be effective in ameliorating surface soil acidity in many areas, significant soil acidity problems...
