Die Coverversion - kommerzielle Kopie oder kulturelle Erinnerung, mangelnde Kreativität oder künstlerischer Fortschritt? Die kontrovers diskutierte musikalische Praxis des Verwendens von bereits Dagewesenem trägt zumeist einen negativen Beigeschmack. Doch bei genauerer Betrachtung zeigt sich, dass ohne sie vieles in der Musik nicht so wär, wie es nun ist. Daher beschäftigt sich dieses Buch mit der Frage, ob einer Coverversion, nebst oder statt kommerziellem Interesse, auch ein künstlerischer Anspruch sowie eine ästhetische Wirkung zugesprochen werden kann. Dazu untersucht es die verschiedenen Ausprägungen des Coverns, vom simplen Nachspielen bis zum Remix, und gibt einen historischen...
This book contains the proceedings of the fib Symposium “High Tech Concrete: Where Technology and Engineering Meet”, that was held in Maastricht, The Netherlands, in June 2017. This annual symposium was organised by the Dutch Concrete Association and the Belgian Concrete Association. Topics addressed include: materials technology, modelling, testing and design, special loadings, safety, reliability and codes, existing concrete structures, durability and life time, sustainability, innovative building concepts, challenging projects and historic concrete, amongst others. The fib (International Federation for Structural Concrete) is a not-for-profit association committed to advancing the technical, economic, aesthetic and environmental performance of concrete structures worldwide.
This book fills a gap by presenting our current knowledge and understanding of continuum-based concepts behind computational methods used for microstructure and process simulation of engineering materials above the atomic scale. The volume provides an excellent overview on the different methods, comparing the different methods in terms of their respective particular weaknesses and advantages. This trains readers to identify appropriate approaches to the new challenges that emerge every day in this exciting domain. Divided into three main parts, the first is a basic overview covering fundamental key methods in the field of continuum scale materials simulation. The second one then goes on to l...
The relation between microstructures and mechanical properties has always been a challenge for materials science. Modelling the formation, properties and long term stability of microstructures is one of the most impressive and promising advances of modern materials science. This book presents recent advances and challenges in this fast evolving cross disciplinary field. It addresses applications of classical physical metallurgy, and the need for new modelling approaches, both on the analytical viewpoint and on the simulation side.
Als er gerade dienstlich in Bern ist, erreicht den Zürcher Bibliothekar Ernst ein offensichtlich irregeleiteter Anruf. Am anderen Ende der Leitung ist eine ihm unbekannte Frau, die ihn anfleht, umgehend zu ihr zu kommen. Aus einer Augenblickslaune heraus begibt sich Ernst zu der nahe gelegenen Adresse. Dort erwartet ihn eine alte Frau und drückt ihm ein Päckchen in die Hand mit der Bitte, es zu verwahren, damit es nicht in falsche Hände gerate. Zu seiner eigenen Verblüffung kommt Ernst der Bitte nach. Als er das Päckchen bei sich zu Hause öffnet, entdeckt er eine alte Handschrift, die er als ein Exemplar des „Abrogans“ erkennt, eines lateinisch-althochdeutschen Wörterbuchs, das als ältestes deutschsprachiges Buch überhaupt gilt. Sollte es sogar das bisher verschollene Original sein? Was, fragt sich Ernst, hat es mit diesem Fund auf sich? Und was soll er jetzt am besten tun ...

Many elements and inorganic compounds play an extraordinary role in daily life for numerous applications, e. g., construction materials, inorganic pigments, inorganic coatings, steel, glass, technical gases, energy storage and conversion materials, fertilizers, homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysts, photofunctional materials, semiconductors, superconductors, soft- and hard magnets, technical ceramics, hard materials, or biomedical and bioactive materials. The present book is written by experienced authors who give a comprehensive overview on the many chemical and physico-chemical aspects related to application of inorganic compounds and materials in order to introduce senior undergraduate and postgraduate students (chemists, physicists, materials scientists, engineers) into this broad field.

Volume 3 presents electronic, magnetic, biomedical, carbon- and sulfur-based materials and ceramics. Vol. 1. From Construction Materials to Technical Gases. Vol. 2. From Energy Storage to Photofunctional Materials.
This work provides the broad range of applications of inorganic compounds. Due to their well defined properties they play an important role in many fields either on a large scale in our daily life or as niche products. Experts from industry and academia present the vast amount of distinguished materials focusing on their synthesis and function. Volume 1 covers e.g. coatings, (inter)metallics, technical gases, ionic solids, catalytic materials.
