Finite Element Analysis
In the past few decades, the Finite Element Method (FEM) has been developed into a key indispensable technology in the modeling and simulation of various engineering systems. The present book reports on the state of the art research and development findings on this very broad matter through original and innovative research studies exhibiting various investigation directions of FEM in electrical, civil, materials and biomedical engineering. This book is a result of contributions of experts from international scientific community working in different aspects of FEM. The text is addressed not only to researchers, but also to professional engineers, students and other experts in a variety of disciplines, both academic and industrial seeking to gain a better understanding of what has been done in the field recently, and what kind of open problems are in this area.
Magnetism and Magnetic Materials
The aim of the book is to provide the reader with a comprehensive overview of the current research in the interesting field of magnetism and magnetic materials. Some very interesting topics like erasing and retrieving the particular magnetic domain of a ferromagnetic thin film, the single domain behaviour of magnetic nanowire with dimension less than 100 nm, magneto-transport behaviour of Heusler alloys etc. have been covered.
Cytotoxicity
The book Cytotoxicity is aimed to be an essential reading to all medical students, biologists, biochemists and professionals involved in the field of toxicology. This book is a useful and ideal guide for novice researchers interested in learning research methods to study cytotoxic bioactive compounds. The parts of this book describe the replacement and different applications of the cytotoxic agents. All chapters are written by paramount experts in cytotoxicity research. This will hopefully stimulate more research initiatives, funding, and critical insight into the already increasing demand for cytotoxicity researches that have been evidenced worldwide.
Modeling and Measurement Methods for Acoustic Waves and for Acoustic Microdevices
Acoustics is a mature field which enjoys a never ending youth. New developments are induced by either the search for a better understanding, or by technological innovations. Micro-fabrication techniques introduced a whole new class of microdevices, which exploit acoustic waves for various tasks, and in particular for information processing and for sensing purposes. Performance improvements are achievable by better modelling tools, able to deal with more complex configurations, and by more refined techniques of fabrication and of integration in technological systems, like wireless communications. Several chapters of this book deal with modelling and fabrication techniques for microdevices, including unconventional phenomena and configurations. But this is far from exhausting the research lines in acoustics. Theoretical analyses and modelling techniques are presented, for phenomena ranging from the detection of cracks to the acoustics of the oceans. Measurement methods are also discussed, which probe by acoustic waves the properties of widely different systems.
Sensors for Everyday Life
Sensors were developed to detect and quantify structures and functions of human body as well as to gather information from the environment in order to optimize the efficiency, cost-effectiveness and quality of healthcare services as well as to improve health and quality of life. This book offers an up-to-date overview of the concepts, modeling, technical and technological details and practical applications of different types of sensors. It also discusses the trends for the next generation of sensors and systems for healthcare settings. It is aimed at researchers and graduate students in the field of healthcare technologies, as well as academics and industry professionals involved in developing sensing systems for human body structures and functions, and for monitoring activities and health.
Cognitive Robotics
The current state of the art in cognitive robotics, covering the challenges of building AI-powered intelligent robots inspired by natural cognitive systems. A novel approach to building AI-powered intelligent robots takes inspiration from the way natural cognitive systems—in humans, animals, and biological systems—develop intelligence by exploiting the full power of interactions between body and brain, the physical and social environment in which they live, and phylogenetic, developmental, and learning dynamics. This volume reports on the current state of the art in cognitive robotics, offering the first comprehensive coverage of building robots inspired by natural cognitive systems. Con...
Professionelles Personalmanagement. Dynamisierungspotenziale im Nachhaltigkeitsmanagement
Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2013 im Fachbereich Führung und Personal - Sonstiges, Note: 2,3, Universität Siegen, Veranstaltung: Personalmanagement und Organisation, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Unternehmen stehen zwar immer mehr unter Druck nachhaltige Maßnahmen zur Verbesserung der Umwelt zu integrieren, Belohnungen für nachhaltiges Verhalten von Mitarbeitern sind jedoch schwer zu definieren und umzusetzen und insbesondere die Veränderungsfähigkeit der Mitarbeiter ist schwer zu messen. Denn, für ein dynamisches Nachhaltigkeitsmanagement führt nicht die Technik zum Erfolg, sondern Menschen und deren Bewusstsein und Handeln. Unternehmen, die nachhaltiges Personalmanagement betreiben, ve...
Personalmanagement und "Green Recruiting". Die Einflüsse der Nachhaltigkeitsdiskussion auf die Personalbeschaffung
Bachelorarbeit aus dem Jahr 2013 im Fachbereich Führung und Personal - Recruiting, Note: 2,3, Universität Siegen, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Das Ziel der Arbeit ist zu untersuchen, wie das nachhaltige Bewusstsein von Studenten bei der Arbeitssuche und Bewerbung ist, welche Einflüsse dieses Bewusstsein auf die Stellensuche und die Bewerbung hat, welche Wirkung ein nachhaltiges Image von Unternehmen auf die Attraktivität als Arbeitgeber hat und welche Möglichkeiten es für ein Unternehmen in den einzelnen Rekrutierungsschritten gibt, um diese im Sinne eines „Green Recruitings“ nachhaltig zu gestalten. Die Attraktivität eines Unternehmens als Arbeitgeber ist ein wichtiger Wettbewerbs...
Legitimating New Religions
This work deals explicitly with the issue of how emerging religions legitimate themselves. It contends that a new religion has at least four different, though overlapping, areas where legitimacy is a concern: making converts, maintaining followers, shaping public opinion and appeasing government authorities. The legitimacy that new religions seek in the public realm is primarily that of social acceptance. recognizing its status as a genuine religion and thus recognizing its right to exist. Through a series of wide-ranging case studies James Lewis explores the diversification of legitimation strategies of new religions as well as the tactics that their critics use to de-legitimate such groups. Cases include the Movement for Spiritual Inner Awareness, Native American prophet religions, spiritualism, the Church of Christ-Scientist, Scientology, Church of Satan, Heaven's Gate, Unitarianism, Hindu reform movements and Soka Gakkai, a new Buddhist sect. to the legitimation strategies deployed by established religions, the book sheds light on classic questions about the origin of all religions.
Printed Flexible Sensors
This book presents recent advances in the design, fabrication and implementation of flexible printed sensors. It explores a range of materials for developing the electrode and substrate parts of the sensors, on the basis of their electrical and mechanical characteristics. The sensors were processed using laser cutting and 3D printing techniques, and the sensors developed were employed in a number of healthcare, environmental and industrial applications, including: monitoring of physiological movements, respiration, salinity and nitrate measurement, and tactile sensing. The type of sensor selected for each application depended on its dimensions, robustness and sensitivity. The sensors fabricated were also embedded in an IoT-based system, allowing them to be integrated into real-time applications.
