The text also introduces the new aggregation operators, similarity measures, and distance measures for the fuzzy sets and their extensions. This book: Introduces the new aggregation operators, similarity measures, and distance measures for the fuzzy sets and their extensions. Covers recent studies in the field of fuzzy optimi...
The wide diffusion of 3D printing technologies continuously calls for effective solutions for designing and fabricating objects of increasing complexity. The so called "computational fabrication" pipeline comprises all the steps necessary to turn a design idea into a physical object, and this book describes the most recent advancements in the two fundamental phases along this pipeline: design and process planning. We examine recent systems in the computer graphics community that allow us to take a design idea from conception to a digital model, and classify algorithms that are necessary to turn such a digital model into an appropriate sequence of machining instructions.
At a time when the statutory framework created for the prevention and redressal of complaints of workplace sexual harassment of the female workforce has existed for more than a decade, this book presents an opportunity for readers to enter a discourse on how the jurisprudence is gradually evolving to address sensitive and complicated issues around such a framework. The book identifies the problem of absence of a comprehensive literature that examines the approach of the judiciary in dealing with aspects such as the ambit of 'sexual harassment' and 'workplace', the manner in which an internal committee should address the lack of a prima facie case of sexual harassment or a vague or anonymous complaint, the efforts required on the part of the committee to ensure a balance between parties when conducting an inquiry, the interplay of disciplinary and criminal proceedings, and so on.
