Высочайший талант и поразительный стиль игры закрепили за Ронни ОСалливаном звание одного из лучших шоуменов в мире снукера. Однако его спортивная карьера была ознаменована чередой головокружительных взлетов и губительных падений, сопровождавшихся ненавистью к себе, пьянством, вспышками гнева и депрессией. Гений ОСалливана проявил себя в возрасте десяти лет, когда ему удалось совершить свой первый сенчури-брейк. Вслед за этим Ронни побивает рекорд за рекордом, пытаясь пережить отсутствие отца, приговоренного к пожизненному заключению. Пережив моменты славы и побывав на самом дне, Ронни предстает перед нами как большой спортсмен, который выиграл все, но чуть не потерял себя. Вдохновенный, волнующий и предельно откровенный рассказ о том, чего стоит добиться успеха и чем ради него приходится жертвовать. Это уникальная история Ронни ОСалливана.

Современные представления о духовной жизни наполнены многими и глубокими противоречиями. Поэтому православное ее понимание особенно нуждается в разъяснении. Игумен Никон (Воробьев), 50-летие кончины которого отмечается в этом (2013) году, с особой верностью сохранил и с любовью передал своим соотечественникам главное в ней — святоотеческое учение о ее законах. Значение таких людей в наше время неоценимо. В предлагаемой книге собраны наиболее важные мысли из писем, проповедей и бесед игумена Никона о вере и жизни в Православии.

Книга Клайва Понтинга «Всемирная история. Новый взгляд» - попытка реконструировать картину мировой истории на основе общих вопросов и событий, объединяющих различные цивилизации. Отказываясь от евроцентризма, автор освещает основные периоды эволюции человеческого общества: жизнь кочевников, собирателей и охотников переход к занятию сельским хозяйством процесс независимого возникновения и развития цивилизаций на разных континентах вплоть до наших дней. К.Понтинг рассматривает процесс взаимовлияния и взаимопроникновения различных человеческих сообществ и доказывает, что Западная Европа никогда не была единственной движущей силой всемирной истории. Отказываясь от противопоставления Запада Востоку и анализируя вклад в историю человечества Месопотамии и Древнего Египта, Индии и Китая, Мезоамерики и государства инков - автор демонстрирует, что мир всегда был многополярным и ни одна из цивилизаций не может претендовать на превосходство над другими.

Filling a gap in the literature, this is the first handbook to simultaneously address the three most important approaches of system-level modeling: physical modeling with lumped elements and Kirchhoffian networks, modal modeling to accurately describe the mechanical domain, and mathematical modeling employing, for example, model order reduction methods. By adopting this approach, the top editors and authors from industry and research have created a book that will set the standard for years to come. Writing on a clearly understandable and sufficiently detailed level, they familiarize readers with the physical and mathematical underpinnings of MEMS modeling, thus enabling users to choose the most suitable method for their particular application needs. Perfectly tailored to practitioners and engineers, this reference presents the advantages and pitfalls of each method -- and how to avoid the latter.

In the wake of global climate change and increasing geopolitical instability of oil supply an accelerated Transition to Renewable Energy System gets increasingly important, if not unavoidable. This book encompasses reports of select energy strategies as well as in-depth technical information of the already or potentially involved technologies. On the one hand, it compiles the description of technologies that already proved to be game changers of the energy supply in some countries, i.e. solar, wind, biomass and hydro power, with a strong focus on data, facts and figures that are needed to design a renewable energy system for a region or a country. On the other hand, this book compiles many more technologies that bear the potential to become game changes in some regions or countries, like maritime power technologies or geothermal energy. The focus on the whole energy system involves particular consideration of storage technologies for the fluctuating renewable energy input as well as an overview on energy transportation as electrical or chemical energy. Also the end-use of the renewable energy is considered if the energy system is affected, like in automotive transportation via battery or fuel cell vehicles. Postulating climate change as a major driver for renewable energies, the articles of the book are written assuming the time-line of 2050 for a major CO2 reduction in order to fulfill the UN global warming goal of 2°C. Hence, technologies that have a potential to leave the research stage by 2030 are considered since further ten years are required for industrial development and market penetration each. Transition to Renewable Energy Systems provides specific insights for energy engineers, process engineers, chemists, and physicists, as well as a sufficiently broad scope to be able to understand the challenges, opportunities and implications of a transition to renewable energy systems so that strategies can be cast.

About The Product Published by the American Geophysical Union as part of the Short Courses in Geology Series . Our understanding of the mechanisms by which organisms form minerals has progressed in the past two decades but is still at a rudimentary stage. Any general theory of biomineralization must explain the formation of solid phases from biological fluids in tenns of physical parameters such as supersaturation, ionic strength, pH, surface energies and the character and quantity of active sites. Knowledge of the functions of the organic matrix in mediating mineral deposition is of basic importance to any understanding of biomineralization. Content:

This seminal series, first edited by Ernest Eliel, responsible for some of the major advances in stereochemistry and the winner of the ACS Priestley Medal in 1996, provides coverage of the major developments of the field of stereochemistry. The scope of this series is broadly defined to encompass all fields of chemical and biological sciences that are founded on molecular and supramolecular interactions. Insofar as chemical, physical, and biological properties are determined by molecular shape and structure, the importance of stereochemistry is fundamental to and consequential for all natural sciences. Topics in Stereochemistry serves as a multidisciplinary series that enriches all of chemistry. Aimed at advanced students, university professors and teachers as well as researchers in pharmaceutical, agricultural, biotechnological, polymer, materials, and fine chemical industries, Topics in Stereochemistry publishes definitive and scholarly reviews in stereochemistry and has long been recognized as the gold standard reference work in this field. Covering the effect of chirality on all aspects of molecular interaction from the fundamental physical chemical properties of molecules and their molecular physics to the application of chirality in new areas such as its applications in materials science, Topics in Stereochemistry explores a wide variety of properties, both physical and chemical of isomers with a view to their applications in a number of disciplines from biochemistry to materials science.

A highly valued resource for those who wish to move from the introductory and preliminary understandings and the measurement of chaotic behavior to a more sophisticated and precise understanding of chaotic systems. The authors provide a deep understanding of the structure of strange attractors, how they are classified, and how the information required to identify and classify a strange attractor can be extracted from experimental data. In its first edition, the Topology of Chaos has been a valuable resource for physicist and mathematicians interested in the topological analysis of dynamical systems. Since its publication in 2002, important theoretical and experimental advances have put the topological analysis program on a firmer basis. This second edition includes relevant results and connects the material to other recent developments. Following significant improvements will be included: * A gentler introduction to the topological analysis of chaotic systems for the non expert which introduces the problems and questions that one commonly encounters when observing a chaotic dynamics and which are well addressed by a topological approach: existence of unstable periodic orbits, bifurcation sequences, multistability etc. * A new chapter is devoted to bounding tori which are essential for achieving generality as well as for understanding the influence of boundary conditions. * The new edition also reflects the progress which had been made towards extending topological analysis to higher-dimensional systems by proposing a new formalism where evolving triangulations replace braids. * There has also been much progress in the understanding of what is a good representation of a chaotic system, and therefore a new chapter is devoted to embeddings. * The chapter on topological analysis program will be expanded to cover traditional measures of chaos. This will help to connect those readers who are familiar with those measures and tests to the more sophisticated methodologies discussed in detail in this book. * The addition of the Appendix with both frequently asked and open questions with answers gathers the most essential points readers should keep in mind and guides to corresponding sections in the book. This will be of great help to those who want to selectively dive into the book and its treatments rather than reading it cover to cover. What makes this book special is its attempt to classify real physical systems (e.g. lasers) using topological techniques applied to real date (e.g. time series). Hence it has become the experimenter?s guidebook to reliable and sophisticated studies of experimental data for comparison with candidate relevant theoretical models, inevitable to physicists, mathematicians, and engineers studying low-dimensional chaotic systems.

About The Product Published by the American Geophysical Union as part of the Lecture Notes on Coastal and Estuarine Studies Series . During the past several years, research into the frontal divisions of the ocean has been particularly intensive. The significance of this lies not only in the fact that, in the five years from 1976 to 1980, more than 500 papers on this question were published in various journals throughout the world and at least three major international discussions were held (see p. 17). The newness of the discussion of the topic steins from the qualitative reinterpretation of the physical essence of the phenomenon and its role in the ocean, particularly in the processes of mixing and structure formation. While in the past the conventional view of fronts as boundaries between large-scale water masses of the ocean only led to the recognition of convenient classification limits created by nature itself, there is now a tendency to study oceanic fronts as integral elements of the dynamics of oceanic waters. As we understand it, fronts are being associated more and more with the dynamic and kinematic features which arise when kinetic energy and enstrophy are transmitted through a cascade of scales characterizing various forms of motion of a stratified medium in laterally confined oceanic basins. We are beginning to get a better understanding of the role synoptic-scale oceanic eddies play in the process of frontogenesis in the ocean. We are beginning to perceive the laws that govern the creation and destruction of fronts due to sudden disruption of the normal processes which match the response of the ocean to the fluxes of heat and buoyancy across the ocean/atmosphere boundary. We can no longer ignore the role of the Earth's rotation in the formation, maintenance and evolution of fronts, as well as in the development of instability at these fronts. Finally, we are turning to fronts as the most likely, and possibly the most effective mechanism for mixing and the transfer of heat and salt through the hydrostatically stable pycnocline. We no longer doubt that the link between the vertical finestructure of the ocean and mesoscale horizontal inhomogeneities inevitably involves fronts.

Published by the American Geophysical Union as part of the __Field Trip Guidebooks Series__. The Nevada Test Site (NTS) was established on December 18, 1950, to provide an area for continental testing of nuclear devices. In January of 1951, testing began with an airdrop into Frenchman Flat in conjunction with Operation Ranger. In addition to airdrops, above ground testing included surface detonations, tower shots, and balloon suspensions. Underground testing began in 1957, and since 1963, all events have been buried in large-diameter drill holes or tunnels. Geologists from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) mapped much of the NTS region between 1960 and 1965. These maps formed the basis for subsequent studies by Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, Los Alamos National Laboratory, Sandia National Laboratories, and the USGS. A good understanding of the stratigraphy, structure, geochemistry, and physical properties of the rocks is essential for containment of underground nuclear tests. Many of the recent geologic studies at NTS, particularly in Yucca Flat, Pahute Mesa, and Mid Valley, are aimed at understanding subsurface geology to help ensure complete containment. The potential nuclear waste site at Yucca Mountain is located approximately 100 miles (160 km) by road northwest of Las Vegas, Nevada, and situated on land controlled by three Federal agencies; the Bureau of Land Management, the Department of Energy (Nevada Test Site), and the U.S. Air Force (Nellis Air Force Range).

This book – a companion to Peter Barnes’ book on the sub-contract for the JCT 2005 Standard Building Contract, __The JCT 05 Standard Building Sub-Contract__ – covers the other eight current JCT sub-contracts:· the Design and Build Sub-Contract · the Major Project Sub-Contract · the Intermediate Sub-Contract · the Intermediate Sub-Contract with sub-contractor’s design · the Intermediate Named Sub-Contract · the Minor Works Sub-Contract with sub-contractor’s design · the Short Form of Sub-Contract · the Sub-subcontract Like the sub-contract for the JCT 2005 Standard Building Contract, these forms are not well covered by other books on building contracts, despite the importance of specialist contractors and the size and value of their work. This book considers a range of key issues, including questions of time, variations, loss and expense, and payment, and examines how these operate under the individual sub-contracts. It will be of interest not only to sub-contractors and main contractors, but also to construction professionals and lawyers.Content: Chapter 1 Background and Introduction (pages 1–21): Chapter 2 The Sub?Contract Agreement (pages 22–63): Chapter 3 Definitions and Interpretations (pages 64–70): Chapter 4 Sub?Contractors' General Obligations (pages 71–126): Chapter 5 Time (pages 127–150): Chapter 6 Defects, Design Documents and Warranties (pages 151–166): Chapter 7 Control of the Sub?Contract Works (pages 167–216): Chapter 8 Payment (pages 217–267): Chapter 9 Loss and Expense (pages 268–297): Chapter 10 Variations (pages 298–322): Chapter 11 Injury, Damage and Insurance (pages 323–339): Chapter 12 Termination of Sub?Contract (pages 340–366): Chapter 13 Settlement of Disputes (pages 367–402):

Based on the author's many years of experience in practicing safety assessment in industry and teaching students or professionals in this area, the topic of this book is seldom found on university curricula and many professionals do not have the knowledge required to interpret thermal data in terms of risks. For this reason, Francis Stoessel adopts a unique systematic how-to-do approach: Each chapter begins with a case history illustrating the topic and presenting the lessons learned from the incident. In so doing, he analyzes a goldmine of numerous examples stemming from industrial practice, additionally providing a series of problems or case studies at the end of each chapter. Divided into three distinct sections, part one looks at the general aspects of thermal process safety, while Part 2 deals with mastering exothermal reactions. The final section discusses the avoidance of secondary reactions, including heat accumulation and thermal confinement.Content: Chapter 1 Introduction to Risk Analysis of Fine Chemical Processes (pages 1–29): Chapter 2 Fundamentals of Thermal Process Safety (pages 31–58): Chapter 3 Assessment of Thermal Risks (pages 59–80): Chapter 4 Experimental Techniques (pages 81–100): Chapter 5 General Aspects of Reactor Safety (pages 101–117): Chapter 6 Batch Reactors (pages 119–146): Chapter 7 Semi?Batch Reactors (pages 147–178): Chapter 8 Continuous Reactors (pages 179–201): Chapter 9 Technical Aspects of Reactor Safety (pages 203–240): Chapter 10 Risk Reducing Measures (pages 241–278): Chapter 11 Thermal Stability (pages 279–309): Chapter 12 Autocatalytic Reactions (pages 311–334): Chapter 13 Heat Confinement (pages 335–359): Chapter 14 Symbols (pages 361–365):

Das klassische Einsatzspektrum monolithischer Werkstoffe wird von Verbundwerkstoffen und Werkstoffverbunden grtenteils bertroffen. Eindrucksvolle Beispiele finden sich im Bereich der alternativen Energieversorgung und des Leichtbaus. Die Effizienz und Leistungsfhigkeit moderner Windkraftwerke ist ohne den Einsatz von Verbundwerkstoffen nicht realisierbar. Weitere Beispiele aus der Verkehrsindustrie wie Bremsscheiben aus Kohlefaser verstrktem Kohlenstoff oder faserverstrkte Motor- und Karosseriekomponenten deuten die Vielfalt an Einsatzmglichkeiten an. Basierend auf den grundlegenden Arbeiten der letzten Jahre gelingt es zunehmend Verbundwerkstoffe und Werkstoffverbunde in unterschiedlichen Applikationen zu optimieren. Als uerst anspruchsvoll erweist sich dabei auch heute noch das Herstellen der meisten Verbunde. Hier gilt es, in der nahen Zukunft Technologien zur sicheren Produktion von Serienbauteilen bis zur Anwendungsreife zu entwickeln. Im Rahmen der Tagung werden Werkstoff- und Bauteileigenschaften und die zugehrigen Herstellungstechnologien unter theoretischen, konstruktiven, experimentellen und fertigungstechnischen Gesichtspunkten diskutiert. ber eine thematische Schwerpunktsetzung und Zuordnung der Beitrge hinweg wird die Zielsetzung verfolgt, Synergieeffekte zwischen den einzelnen Disziplinen der Verbundwerkstoffforschung und sowie deren Anwendung im Sinne eines effizienten Technologieaufbaus und -transfers zu nutzen. Diese Ergebnisse sind im vorliegenden Tagungsband dokumentiert
