Dimension Reduced Modeling of Blood Flow in Large Arteries
This monograph contains an in-depth and coherent treatment of dimension-reduced modeling of blood flows on the level of large vessels (macrocirculation). The authors reduce the complexity by combining a one-dimensional Navier-Stokes equation and a simplified FSI-concept. The influence of omitted vessels, which are subsequent to the outlets of larger vessels, is accounted for by systems of ordinary differential equations (0D models). The target audience primarily comprises research experts in the field of biomedical engineering, but the book may also be beneficial for graduate students alike.
Numerical Mathematics and Advanced Applications ENUMATH 2015
The European Conference on Numerical Mathematics and Advanced Applications (ENUMATH), held every 2 years, provides a forum for discussing recent advances in and aspects of numerical mathematics and scientific and industrial applications. The previous ENUMATH meetings took place in Paris (1995), Heidelberg (1997), Jyvaskyla (1999), Ischia (2001), Prague (2003), Santiago de Compostela (2005), Graz (2007), Uppsala (2009), Leicester (2011) and Lausanne (2013). This book presents a selection of invited and contributed lectures from the ENUMATH 2015 conference, which was organised by the Institute of Applied Mathematics (IAM), Middle East Technical University, Ankara, Turkey, from September 14 to 18, 2015. It offers an overview of central recent developments in numerical analysis, computational mathematics, and applications in the form of contributions by leading experts in the field.
Hayekian Systems
The central theme in the work of F.A. Hayek was the problem of order in society, and his focus was epistemological: he was concerned with the constraints on knowledge, the problems associated with its distribution, the structures in which it inheres, and the implications of these issues for the understanding of social phenomena generally. But while his work has greatly improved our understanding of market processes, application to more complex social arrangements was not an unambiguous success. In seeking to progress beyond Hayek’s difficulties in formulating a more general theory of spontaneous order, this book fleshes out an analogy between social orders and the biological order detailed...

Recent Trends in Computational Engineering - CE2014
This book presents selected papers from the 3rd International Workshop on Computational Engineering held in Stuttgart from October 6 to 10, 2014, bringing together innovative contributions from related fields with computer science and mathematics as an important technical basis among others. The workshop discussed the state of the art and the further evolution of numerical techniques for simulation in engineering and science. We focus on current trends in numerical simulation in science and engineering, new requirements arising from rapidly increasing parallelism in computer architectures, and novel mathematical approaches. Accordingly, the chapters of the book particularly focus on parallel algorithms and performance optimization, coupled systems, and complex applications and optimization.
Die Einflussnahme der Tabaklobby auf das Bundesnichtraucherschutzgesetz
Die Tabaklobby gilt gemeinhin als Musterbeispiel einer schlagkräftigen Interessengruppe, die versucht, ihre Vorstellungen in Gesetzgebungsverfahren einzubringen. Anlässlich der unlängst im Bund und in den Ländern verabschiedeten Gesetze zum Schutz der Nichtraucher musste sie geradezu zwangsläufig zur Hochform auflaufen - aber hatte sie auch Erfolg? Lobbyismus findet unter dem Ausschluss der Öffentlichkeit in den Hinterzimmern der Politik statt. Umso erhellender ist dieses Buch, dem es gelingt, in die Netzwerke einzudringen und die Arbeit der Lobbyisten nicht nur an das Tageslicht zu bringen, sondern auch zu bewerten.
Klassiker der Verbändeforschung
Die Verbändeforschung hat sich seit der ersten Hälfte des 19. Jahrhunderts zu einer wichtigen sozialwissenschaftlichen Teildisziplin entwickelt. Ihr fachübergreifender Charakter erzeugte einen ausgeprägten Pluralismus erkenntnisleitender Interessen und Fragestellungen, der die Formulierung einer einheitlichen Verbändetheorie bis heute verhindert hat. 15 Einzelportraits präsentieren Biographien und Werke derjenigen Wissenschaftler, die diese Forschungstradition entscheidend geprägt haben. Umrahmt werden sie von zwei Überblicksdarstellungen, die sowohl die Entwicklungslinien der klassischen Periode bis ca. 1980 analysieren als auch die neueren Forschungstrends. Dabei wird deutlich, dass 'Klassik' und 'Moderne' der Verbändeforschung bis heute eng verknüpft sind und eine fruchtbare Verbindung zwischen schöpferischem Pioniergeist und innovativer Fortentwicklung darstellen.
Kernel-based Approximation Methods Using Matlab
In an attempt to introduce application scientists and graduate students to the exciting topic of positive definite kernels and radial basis functions, this book presents modern theoretical results on kernel-based approximation methods and demonstrates their implementation in various settings. The authors explore the historical context of this fascinating topic and explain recent advances as strategies to address long-standing problems. Examples are drawn from fields as diverse as function approximation, spatial statistics, boundary value problems, machine learning, surrogate modeling and finance. Researchers from those and other fields can recreate the results within using the documented MATLAB code, also available through the online library. This combination of a strong theoretical foundation and accessible experimentation empowers readers to use positive definite kernels on their own problems of interest.
