Hans Christian ØRsted and the Romantic Legacy in Science: Ideas, Disciplines, Practices
ISBN: 9781402029790 / Angielski / Twarda / 442 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This volume owes its origin to the perception of a puzzling paradox. Hans Christian Orsted, the great Danish scientist and philosopher, was one of the founders of modern physics through his experimental discovery in 1820 of the interaction of electricity and magnetism--a key step and model for the further unification of the forces of nature. Followers such as Maxwell and Einstein were, and today searchers worldwide are, enchanted by the hope for a completion of that grand program. In addition to Orsted's discovery of electromagnetism, his work in science included other fields, chiefly...

Zadeh, the founder of fuzzy set theory. The principal constituents of SC are fuzzy logic (FL), neural network theory (NN) and probabilistic reasoning (PR), with the latter subsuming parts of belief networks, genetic algorithms, chaos theory and learning theory. What is important to note is that SC is not a melange of FL, NN and PR. Rather, it is an integration in which each of the partners contributes a distinct methodology for...

Boundary Element Analysis of Crack Propagation on Anisotropic Rocks
ISBN: 9783639108095 / Angielski / Miękka / 132 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Rock masses in nature contain numerous discontinuities as cracks, joints, cleavages, beddings and even faults etc. In the cracked material, the stress intensity factors (SIFs) at crack tips, which govern the crack propagation and are associated with the strength of the material, are strongly affected by crack inclination angle, orientation of anisotropy. This book presents the development of a unified numerical framework based on the BEM for modeling crack propagation behavior in anisotropic rocks. The following topics are discussed in this book: 1. Evaluating the SIFs -A new...

Multidimensional Screening
ISBN: 9783540239062 / Angielski / Miękka / 202 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In many industries the tariffs are not strictly proportional to the quantity purchased, i. e, they are nonlinear. Examples of nonlinear tariffs include railroad and electricity schedules and rental rates for durable goods and space. The major justification for the nonlinear pricing is the existence of private information on the side of consumers. In the early papers on the subject, private information was captured either by assuming a finite number of types (e. g. Adams and Yellen, 1976) or by a unidimensional continuum of types (Mussa and Rosen, 1978). Economics of the unidimen- sional...
