Cutting-edge solutions to current problems in orthopedics, supported by modeling and numerical analysis Despite the current successful methods and achievements of good joint implantations, it is essential to further optimize the shape of implants so they may better resist extreme long-term mechanical demands. This book provides the orthopedic, biomechanical, and mathematical basis for the simulation of surgical techniques in orthopedics. It focuses on the numerical modeling of total human joint replacements and simulation of their functions, along with the rigorous biomechanics of human joints and other skeletal parts. The book includes: An introduction to the anatomy and biomechanics of the...
George Gemistos Plethon (c. 1360-1454) was a remarkable and influential thinker, active at the time of transition between the Byzantine Middle Ages and the Italian Renaissance. His works cover literary, historical, scientific, but most notably philosophical issues. Plethon is arguably the most important of the Byzantine Platonists and the earliest representative of Platonism in the Renaissance, the movement which generally exercised a huge influence on the development of early modern thought. Thus his treatise on the differences between Plato and Aristotle triggered the Plato-Aristotle controversy of the 15th century, and his ideas impacted on Italian Renaissance thinkers such as Ficino.

Vysvobození z noční můry. Druhá šance. Zázrak. Nebo jen nový den starého života. Rozbřesk přináší mnohé – ovšem co pro nás má skutečně nachystáno, to se nedozvíme, dokud sami neotevřeme oči. A nejinak tomu je i s touto sbírkou povídek a básní od nové vlny českých spisovatelů. Každý z autorů pojal zadané téma jinak. Po svém. Vznikla tak žánrově pestrá antologie plná niterných zpovědí, humoru a mrazivých rozuzlení, u které nikdy nevíte, co přinese další stránka. Některá jména, jež zde najdete, dobře znáte z obálek bestsellerů. S jinými se setkáte nejspíš poprvé, ovšem rozhodně ne naposledy. Připravte se. Přichází ráno. A s ním třiadvacet probuzení.
Grain legumes, including common-bean, chickpea, pigeonpea, pea, cowpea, lentil and others, form important constituents of global diets, both vegetarian and non-vegetarian. Despite this significant role, global production has increased only marginally in the past 50 years. The slow production growth, along with a rising human population and improved buying capacity has substantially reduced the per capita availability of food legumes. Changes in environmental climate have also had significant impact on production, creating a need to identify stable donors among genetic resources for environmentally robust genes and designing crops resilient to climate change. Genetic and Genomic Resources of ...
E-Health Systems Quality and Reliability: Models and Standards addresses the reason, principles and functionality of health and health care systems and presents a novel framework for revealing, understanding and implementing appropriate management interventions leading to qualitative improvement. It also provides evidence on the quality and reliability of telemedicine and reviews standards and guidelines for practicing medicine at a distance.
