This compelling adventure story follows the fate of the Polish submarine 'Eagle' during the early days of the Second World War.
This volume compiles eight recent surveys that present state-of-the-art results in the field of active matter at different scales, modeled by agent-based, kinetic, and hydrodynamic descriptions. Following the previously published volume, these chapters were written by leading experts in the field and accurately reflect the diversity of subject matter in theory and applications. Several mathematical tools are employed throughout the volume, including analysis of nonlinear PDEs, network theory, mean field approximations, control theory, and flocking analysis. The book also covers a wide range of applications, including: Biological network formation Social systems Control theory of sparse systems Dynamics of swarming and flocking systems Stochastic particles and mean field approximations Mathematicians and other members of the scientific community interested in active matter and its many applications will find this volume to be a timely, authoritative, and valuable resource.
'Deeply researched and written with verve... thoughtful as well as action packed' The Times 'Gripping, moving and important' Simon Sebag Montefiore 'Agent Zo is a triumph. Absolutely essential reading' Hallie Rubenhold This is the incredible story of Elzbieta Zawacka, the WW2 female resistance fighter known as Agent Zo, told here for the very first time. Agent Zo was the only woman to reach London from Warsaw during the Second World War as an emissary of the Polish Home Army command, and then in Britain she became the only woman to join the Polish elite Special Forces, known as the 'Silent Unseen'. She was secretly trained in the British countryside, and then the only female member of these ...
Niniejsza monografia, analizująca zjawisko oporu zarówno w ujęciu teoretycznym, jak i praktycznym – na przykładzie konkretnych wydarzeń w regionie, stanowi unikatową na polskim rynku pozycję, ukazującą bunt na Bliskim Wschodzie jako niezwykle zróżnicowany, wieloaspektowy fenomen o różnorodnej proweniencji. Zebrane w niej teksty dostarczą czytelnikowi rzetelnych informacji na temat wybranych ruchów oporu w regionie, a także teoretycznych podstaw do poszerzenia wiedzy i indywidualnej kontynuacji badań. fragment Wprowadzenia Recenzowana książka stanowi interesującą próbę uchwycenia współczesnych form oporu i działalności ruchów społeczno-politycznych na Bliskim Ws...
This book consists of contributions originating from a conference in Obedo, Portugal, which honoured the 70th birthday of V.A. Solonnikov. A broad variety of topics centering on nonlinear problems is presented, particularly Navier-Stokes equations, viscosity problems, diffusion-absorption equations, free boundaries, and Euler equations.
„Prawda to metal i piekło!” – głosił Roman Kostrzewski. Sprawdźcie sami, czy miał rację. Kat to zespół, który wielu zamyka w szufladce z etykietą „satanizm”. Zdefiniowanie tej jednej z najważniejszych polskich grup metalowych wymaga jednak o wiele więcej słów, o czym przekonacie się, czytając tę książkę. A w niej: • szaleństwa muzyków Hanoi Rocks i Kata podczas wspólnej trasy; • opis koncertów z Metallicą w katowickim Spodku i legendarnych występów w Jarocinie; • kulisy nagrań, m.in. albumu Oddech wymarłych światów – zestawianego przez krytyków na równi z kultowym Master of Puppets; • rytualne morderstwo i obrona przed zarzutami; • anali...
The International Congress on Mathematical Physics is the flagship conference in this exciting field. Convening every three years, it gives a survey on the progress achieved in all branches of mathematical physics. It also provides a superb platform to discuss challenges and new ideas. The present volume collects material from the XVIth ICMP which was held in Prague, August 2009, and features most of the plenary lectures and invited lectures in topical sessions as well as information on other parts of the congress program.This volume provides a broad coverage of the field of mathematical physics, from dominantly mathematical subjects to particle physics, condensed matter, and application of mathematical physics methods in various areas such as astrophysics and ecology, amongst others.
