Handbook of Materials Characterization
This book focuses on the widely used experimental techniques available for the structural, morphological, and spectroscopic characterization of materials. Recent developments in a wide range of experimental techniques and their application to the quantification of materials properties are an essential side of this book. Moreover, it provides concise but thorough coverage of the practical and theoretical aspects of the analytical techniques used to characterize a wide variety of functional nanomaterials. The book provides an overview of widely used characterization techniques for a broad audience: from beginners and graduate students, to advanced specialists in both academia and industry.
Biopolymer Membranes and Films
Biopolymer Membranes and Films: Health, Food, Environment, and Energy Applications presents the latest techniques for the design and preparation of biopolymer-based membranes and films, leading to a range of cutting-edge applications. The first part of the book introduces the fundamentals of biopolymers, two-dimensional systems, and the characterization of biopolymer membranes and films, considering physicochemical, mechanical and barrier properties. Subsequent sections are organized by application area, with each chapter explaining how biopolymer-based membranes or films can be developed for specific innovative uses across the health, food, environmental and energy sectors. This book is a v...

Why Ferenczi?
Known for his willingness to take on "difficult" cases, Sandór Ferenczi developed an original theory of traumatogenesis, based on the notion of disavowal (Verleugnung) of the unspeakable pain of the subject traumatized by the other, to whom he turns in search of testimony, recognition and reparation. His subtle understanding of the fact that psychic trauma causes the subject to identify with the aggressor, followed by a narcissistic split, indicated the need to rethink clinical practice according to a psychoanalytic ethic of care. Ferenczi developed an emphatic style that was not only the main inspiration for some of the later developments in Freud's conception of clinical practice, but was also significant for the work of authors such as Winnicott and Lacan, for whom the psychic work of the analyst is included in the process of working-through in analysis.
Polyglutamine Disorders
This book provides a cutting-edge review of polyglutamine disorders. It primarily focuses on two main aspects: (1) the mechanisms underlying the pathologies’ development and progression, and (2) the therapeutic strategies that are currently being explored to stop or delay disease progression. Polyglutamine (polyQ) disorders are a group of inherited neurodegenerative diseases with a fatal outcome that are caused by an abnormal expansion of a coding trinucleotide repeat (CAG), which is then translated in an abnormal protein with an elongated glutamine tract (Q). To date, nine polyQ disorders have been identified and described: dentatorubral-pallidoluysian atrophy (DRPLA); Huntington’s dise...

Software Ecosystems, Sustainability and Human Values in the Social Web
This book constitutes extended revised selected papers presented during the 8th Workshop of Human-Computer Interaction Aspects to the Social Web, WAIHCWS 2017, held in Joinville, Brazil, in October 2017, and during the 9th Workshop of Human-Computer Interaction Aspects to the Social Web, WAIHCWS 2018, held in Belém, Brazil, in October 2018. The 5 full papers presented were thoroughly reviewed and selected from 14 submissions for WAIHCWS 2017 and 3 full papers were selected for publication from 20 submissions for WAIHCWS 2018. The authors were given the opportunity to extend and revise the papers after the conference. The topics included in this volume cover the following fields connected to the social web: user experience, emotion analysis, interoperability, systems-of-information systems, knowledge-intensive processes, ontology, transportation domain, mobile systems, privacy policies, digital legacy, social networks, recommendation models, scientific events, accessible web, software ecosystems, and sustainability.

Distributed, Ambient and Pervasive Interactions
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 4th International Conference on Distributed, Ambient, and Pervasive Interactions, DAPI 2016, held as part of the 18th International Conference on Human-Computer Interaction, HCII 2016, held in Toronto, ON, Canada, in July 2016 and received a total of 4354 submissions, of which 1287 papers were accepted for publication after a careful reviewing process. These papers address the latest research and development efforts and highlight the human aspects of design and use of computing systems. The papers accepted for presentation thoroughly cover the entire field of human-computer interaction, addressing major advances in knowledge and effective use of computers in a variety of application areas. This volume contains papers addressing the following major topics: designing and developing smart environments; tracking and recognition techniques in ambient intelligence; human behavior in smart environments; emotions and affect in intelligent environments; and smart cities and communities.
Weathering
Weathering is atmospheric, geological, temporal, transformative. It implies exposure to the elements and processes of wearing down, disintegration, or accrued patina. Weathering can also denote the ways in which subjects and objects resist and pass through storms and adversity. This volume contemplates weathering across many fields and disciplines; its contributions examine various surfaces, environments, scales, temporalities, and vulnerabilities. What does it mean to weather or withstand? Who or what is able to pass through safely? What is lost or gained in the process?
