Colour of Humans
In God’s Own Country, a democratically elected ruler metamorphosed into a despot. Individuals and society lost their dignity, freedom, and power. Flatterers emerged in large numbers. The media prostrated before the autocrat, refusing to see the anguish and death. To derive pleasure and bust tension, the dictator tortured beggars, migrant labourers and nomads by punching their faces in his secret torture chamber. History haunted him because he was a rootless vagabond, and the truth shattered his ego. Four women dared to challenge him. The story delves into democracy, the rule of law, moral ambiguity, human evil, and responsibility. Narratives incrusted with symbolism and metaphor vividly express the intricate terrains of the human psyche and deep fissures in society.
Numerical and Experimental Investigation of Water Introduction Into DI Diesel Engine Combustion
Im vorliegenden Band 3/2008 berichtet Herr Eckert uber die Ergebnisse aus Untersuchungen zur Partikel- und Stickoxidminimierung bei Dieselmotoren durch Wassereinbringung. Das primare Ziel ist dabei die innermotorische Reduzierung der thermischen Stickoxidbildung. Es sind unterschiedliche Methoden der wassereinbringung in den dieselmotorischen Verbrennungsprozess moglich; beispielsweise die Einspritzung von Wasser in das Ansaugsystem, eine direkte Einspritzung von Wasser in den Brennraum sowie die Wassereinbringung mit Diesel- Wasser Emulsionen. Diese Massnahmen sind unter anderem bei dieselmotoren, die zumindest teilweise mit Schwerol betrieben werden, besonders interessant, da dort klassische Methoden zur Schadstoffreduktion, wie z.B. Abgasruckfuhrung oder Abgasnachbehandlung, nur mit erheblichem Aufwand eingesetzt werden konnen.
Needles and Haystacks
This thesis traces the efforts in the 1930's of the Polish, French, and British Intelligence Services to break the German Enigma ciphering machine, efforts which led to the Bletchley Park Ultra operations of World War II. The cooperation, and lack thereof, among the Intelligence Services is discussed, with the conclusion that more cooperation sooner would have better served the individual national interests of each.
Tax and Corporate Governance
Academic research shows that well-known principal-agent and capital market problems are strongly influenced by tax considerations. Against this background, this volume is the first to present a fully-fledged overview of the interdependence of tax and corporate governance. Not only the basic political, legal and economic questions but also major topics like income measurement, shareholding structures, corporate social responsibility and tax shelter disclosure are covered.
Ultra-Low Field Nuclear Magnetic Resonance
This book covers topics in NMR/MRI at magnetic fields from milli-Tesla to micro-Tesla, the ultra-low field (ULF) regime, with an emphasis on imaging and understanding the human using its applications. Discussion of hardware considerations, relaxation contrast, imaging, artifact correction, and other applications unique to the ULF regime are presented.
Intelligent Audio Analysis
This book provides the reader with the knowledge necessary for comprehension of the field of Intelligent Audio Analysis. It firstly introduces standard methods and discusses the typical Intelligent Audio Analysis chain going from audio data to audio features to audio recognition. Further, an introduction to audio source separation, and enhancement and robustness are given. After the introductory parts, the book shows several applications for the three types of audio: speech, music, and general sound. Each task is shortly introduced, followed by a description of the specific data and methods applied, experiments and results, and a conclusion for this specific task. The books provides benchmark results and standardized test-beds for a broader range of audio analysis tasks. The main focus thereby lies on the parallel advancement of realism in audio analysis, as too often today’s results are overly optimistic owing to idealized testing conditions, and it serves to stimulate synergies arising from transfer of methods and leads to a holistic audio analysis.
Assessment of Non-Point Source Pollution in the Vadose Zone
Published by the American Geophysical Union as part of the Geophysical Monograph Series, Volume 108. Non-point source (NPS) pollution in the vadose zone (simply defined as the layer of soil extending from the soil surface to the groundwater table) is a global environmental problem. Characteristically, NPS pollutants are widespread and occasionally ubiquitous in extent, thus making remediation efforts difficult and complex; have the potential for maintaining a relatively long active presence in the global ecosystem; and may result in long?]term, chronic health effects in humans and other life forms. Similar to other global environmental issues, the knowledge and information required to addres...
Women in the Shadows
Women in the Shadows discusses the biographies of five brilliant and talented women born in the Austro-Hungarian Empire: Mileva Einstein-Maric, Margarete Jeanne Trakl, Lise Meitner, Milena Jesenská, and Margarete Schütte-Lihotzky. Charles S. Chiu creates «a narrative against forgetting, as a small step out of darkness» by writing about these women's accomplishments, which were overshadowed by those of the famous men in their lives. Edith Borchardt's translation brings this narrative to a wider audience. Women in the Shadows will interest scientists and scholars in the humanities as well as the general reader. The women portrayed represent various fields - mathematics, physics, music and literature, journalism, and architecture - making Women in the Shadows suitable for courses on the history of science, German and Austrian studies, as well as women's studies.
