Overview: Contains case studies of real plants.Explains "functional safety" through risk assessment methods.Shows numerous worked-out examples with solutions.Accidents in industrial installations are random events. Hence they cannot be totally avoided. Only the probability of their occurrence may be reduced and their consequences be mitigated.

Although plastic pollution is a well-known global problem, the recent discovery of microplastics and nanoplastics in seas and oceans represents a very alarming new envi

Overview: Schwerpunkt auf Therapie und frühzeitige Erkennung.Knapp und verst?ndlich geschrieben.Interdisziplin?re Betrachtungsweise.Die Geburt eines Kindes geh?rt für viele Frauen zu den besonders glücklichen Ereignissen in ihrem Leben. Doch es bedarf auch günstiger Bedingungen, um die neue Verantwortung für ein Kind tats?chlich als Glück und Bereicherung empfinden zu k?nnen. Für etwa 15 bis 20 Prozent der Frauen trifft das nicht zu. Aufgrund von psychosozialen Vorbelastungen, finanziellen Problemen, überlastung, Partnerschaftskonflikten oder seelischen Krisen kann es bei ihnen nach der Geburt

Overview: Investigations of atmospheric pollution have recently reached a new stage. In addition to the estimation and the monitoring of pollutant concentrations in the air around their sources, by way of observational data and also by calcu- lations on the basis of theoretical research, it is now possible to make short- term forecasts of air pollution and to use them to regulate industrial emissions. Many countries are interested in such forecasts. In the Soviet Union the organizations of the State Committee of the USSR for Hydrometeorology (Goskomgidromet) are carrying out a wide-scale scien

Overview: Die Analyse diskret gesteuerter Systeme beschr?nkt sich bisher auf die M?glichkeiten der Simulation; für zeitlich parallele, nebenl?ufige Prozesse ben?tigt man als weiteres, leistungsf?higes Instrument die Petri-Netze.

Overview: Draws together a wide range of peer-reviewed primary research papers from biodiversity researchers around the world.Provides examples from a wide spectrum of issues representing the current state-of-tNon-timber forest products (NTFP) hold economic and cultural signi?cance for millions of people across the globe. For instance, hundreds of millions of rural peoples currently derive a signi?cant portion of both their subsistence needs and cash income from gathered plant and animal products (Iqbal 1993; Vedeld et al. 2004). Thousands of wild NTFP are also harvested for local use in other

Overview: Offers an unprecedented classification and comparative assessment of the most active space actors worldwide.Introduces an innovative conceptual framework to measure and classify space actors in a mult.This book explains on what basis a nation can claim the status of space power, what are the criteria differentiating a space power from “l(fā)esser” space actors, and how their spacepower can be empirically measured and assessed. To this end, it sets forth a comprehensive multidisciplinary framework to enable a dynamic comparison of space actors and of the pathways that lead them in and out

Overview: Wind energy is now the world‘s fastest growing energy source. In the past 10 years, the global wind energy capacity has increased rapidly. The installed global wind power capacity has grown to 47.317 GW from about 3.5 GW in 1994. The global wind power industry installed 7976 MW in 2004, an increase in total installed generating capacity of 20%. The phenomenal growth in the wind energy industry can be attributed to the concerns to the environmental issues, and research and development of innovative cost-reducing technologies. Denmark is a leading producer of wind turbines in the world

Overview: In this book the author treats four fundamental and apparently simple problems. They are: the number of primes below a given limit, the ap- proximate number of primes, the recognition of prime numbers and the factorization of large numbers. A chapter on the details of the distribution of the primes is included as well as a short description of a recent applica- tion of prime numbers, the so-called RSA public-key cryptosystem. The author is also giving explicit algorithms and computer programs. Whilst not claiming completeness, the author has tried to give all important results known,
