Selected, peer reviewed papers from the 2014 4th International Conference on Key Engineering Materials (ICKEM 2014), March 22-23, 2014, Bali, Indonesia
Prof. Dr.-Ing. Roland Baar, Head of the department of Powertrain Technologies at Technische Universität Berlin, unfortunately deceased on 23 June 2018. Professor Roland Baar rendered an outstanding service to the science of powertrain technologies, especially in the field of turbocharging. His enthusiasm and determination were both a professional and a personal inspiration to everyone who worked with him. To continue Roland Baar’s work, his business and academic colleagues dedicate this collection of scientific papers to his memory. The articles in this memorial publication cover different aspects of powertrain technology research. This topic plays an important part in the current public ...

This book is aimed at scientists and engineers wanting to use radioisotopes and the emitted ionising radiations competently but without seeking expertise. It describes decay and stability criteria, necessary precautions to ensure radiation protection and the detection of alpha, beta and gamma rays including spectrometry. There are comments on calorimetry, liquid scintillation counting, how to use secondary standard instruments, high resolution detectors and how to calculate counting results estimating uncertainties and allowing for the statistics of radionuclide decays. The book's principal purpose is to encourage radionuclide applications which can be done safely, reliably and accurately. It describes industrial and scientific applications of alpha, beta, and gamma rays, neutrons and high energy radiations. This book will be of particular interest to scientists and technologists, teachers and students, helping them to work with radioisotopes safely, efficiently and reliably.
This is the autobiography of Abdul Salam Zaeef, a senior former member of the Taliban. His memoirs, translated from Pashto, are more than just a personal account of his extraordinary life. My Life with the Taliban offers a counter-narrative to the standard accounts of Afghanistan since 1979. Zaeef describes growing up in rural poverty in Kandahar province. Both of his parents died at an early age, and the Russian invasion of 1979 forced him to flee to Pakistan. He started fighting the jihad in 1983, during which time he was associated with many major figures in the anti-Soviet resistance, including the current Taliban head Mullah Mohammad Omar. After the war Zaeef returned to a quiet life in...
