Although the design and management of manufacturing systems have been explored in the literature for many years now, they still remain topical problems in the current scientific research. The changing market trends, globalization, the constant pressure to reduce production costs, and technical and technological progress make it necessary to search for new manufacturing methods and ways of organizing them, and to modify manufacturing system design paradigms. This book presents current research in different areas connected with the design and management of manufacturing systems and covers such subject areas as: methods supporting the design of manufacturing systems, methods of improving mainte...
Three million Polish Jews were murdered in the Holocaust, wiping out nearly 98 percent of the Jewish population who had lived and thrived there for generations. Night Without End tells the stories of their resistance, suffering, and death in unflinching, horrific detail. Based on meticulous research from across Poland, it concludes that those who were responsible for so many deaths included a not insignificant number of Polish villagers and townspeople who aided the Germans in locating and slaughtering Jews. When these findings were first published in a Polish edition in 2018, a storm of protest and lawsuits erupted from Holocaust deniers and from people who claimed the research was falsified and smeared the national character of the Polish people. Night Without End, translated and published for the first time in English in association with Yad Vashem, presents the critical facts, significant findings, and the unmistakable evidence of Polish collaboration in the genocide of Jews.
In the tradition of EuroComb'01 (Barcelona), Eurocomb'03 (Prague), EuroComb'05 (Berlin), Eurocomb'07 (Seville), Eurocomb'09 (Bordeaux), and Eurocomb'11 (Budapest), this volume covers recent advances in combinatorics and graph theory including applications in other areas of mathematics, computer science and engineering. Topics include, but are not limited to: Algebraic combinatorics, combinatorial geometry, combinatorial number theory, combinatorial optimization, designs and configurations, enumerative combinatorics, extremal combinatorics, ordered sets, random methods, topological combinatorics.
Am Beispiel dreier ausgewählter Spielfilme aus deutscher, polnischer und polnisch-deutscher Produktion – Unsere Mütter, unsere Väter (2013), Warschau '44 (2014) und Unser letzter Sommer (2015) – analysiert die Autorin das Erinnern im modernen Spielfilm im Spannungsfeld von Transnationalisierung und Renationalisierung in Polen und Deutschland heute. Die untersuchten Filme eint das Motiv des Erwachsenwerdens ganz normaler junger Menschen im Zweiten Weltkrieg, das einen Nährboden für den Bruch mit etablierten Erzählweisen und die Umdeutung etablierter Täter-Opfer-Dichotomien bietet. Mit wechselndem Fokus auf die Produktions-, Narrations- und Rezeptionskontexte der drei Spielfilme wird beleuchtet, welche Rolle die jungen Filmemacher einer Generation Postmemory spielen, wie in den Filmen über die Vergangenheit erzählt wird und wie diese breitenwirksam und transnational rezipierten Erinnerungsfilme in Debatten zum Umgang mit der Geschichte in Deutschland und Polen eingebettet werden.
This volume contains the proceedings of the IUTAM Symposium on Computational Physics and New Perspectives in Turbulence, held at Nagoya University, Nagoya, Japan, in September 2006. With special emphasis given to fundamental aspects of the physics of turbulence, coverage includes experimental approaches to fundamental problems in turbulence, turbulence modeling and numerical methods, and geophysical and astrophysical turbulence.
