By systematically investigating the coordination interaction between protein and quantum dots using various engineered protein ligands, this thesis proposes a general rule for protein self-assembly on the surface of quantum dots and reports a revolutionized nanobelt protein in accordance with this rule.

The authors discuss the engineering properties of energy technologies including renewables, the economics of natural resources and environmental protection, market liberalization, and energy trade as well as the experience of the German energy transformation.

Natural Computing Algorithms

This textbook presents the basics of game theory both on an undergraduate level and on a more advanced mathematical level. Part II goes deeper into noncooperative theory and treats the theory of zerosum games, refinements of Nash equilibrium in strategic as well as extensive form games, and evolutionary games.

This book examines the nature and consequences of strategic competition between the US and China, which affects the global security landscape and the emerging security architecture across the broader Asia-Pacific region.

This dissertation focuses on the study of novel high-gain free-electron laser (FEL) operation schemes with external seed lasers. Several novel FEL schemes are proposed for the generation of intense coherent FEL pulses with short wavelength, sub-femtosecond pulse length or multiple carrier frequency properties, which meet the needs of FEL users.

The book addresses different areas of corpus-based translation studies, including corpus-based study of translation features, translator's style, norms of translation, translation practice, translator training and interpreting.

The underlying idea is to agree prices for specification features, instead of giving each material an individual price based on its unique specification. By doing so, a price formula will be agreed between the buyer and supplier which even defines prices of future materials with any kind of specification.

The book presents the life and works of one of Germany's most famous computer scientists, Carl Adam Petri. It is written in a vivid and entertaining manner, providing an in-depth discussion of the background behind Petri's best-known contribution to computer science, the Petri net.

This book demystifies the models we use to simulate present and future climates, allowing readers to better understand how to use climate model results.

This book focuses on the different representations and cryptographic properties of Booleans functions, presents constructions of Boolean functions with some good cryptographic properties.

This book presents a comprehensive and systematic introduction to transforming process-oriented data into information about the underlying business process, which is essential for all kinds of decision-making.

This book shows how to systematically approach a complex geotechnical problem, from identifying existing problems, reviewing literature, to dimensional and numerical analyses, validation through full-scale testing and centrifuge model testing.

This concise textbook for students preferably of a postgraduate level, but also for engineers in practice, contains the basic kinematical and kinetic structures of dynamics together with carefully selected applications. Selected problems of linear and nonlinear dynamics are treated, as well as problems of vibration formation.

This innovative teaching atlas provides the reader with a practical approach to the diagnosis and management of the common and uncommon diseases that may involve the pancreatic gland.

Der Band fuhrt in die didaktischen und methodischen Grundlagen des Geometrieunterrichts in den Klassen 5 bis 10 ein. Die vielfaltigen Moglichkeiten der problemorientierten Unterrichtsgestaltung werden anhand zahlreicher praktischer Beispiele vorgefuhrt.

This book reviews new insights into the seismotectonics of this Central India tectonic zone, based on magnetotelluric studies. Integrates deep electromagnetic analyses with gravity, seismic and heat flow studies and distinct, delineated deep crustal features.

Unique in specializing on cardiac mass, this handbook is the result of cooperation between radiology teams working under the aegis of the French Society of Cardiovascular Imaging. Its review of sequences and protocols highlights their diagnostic capabilities.

The third edition of this book combines physical modeling of mechatronic systems with precise numerical simulation using the Finite Element method. Includes enhanced discussion of principles and methods, and new chapters on acoustic fields and flow fields.

This volume provides an introduction to stochastic differential equations with jumps, in both theory and application. The book is accessible and contains many new results on numerical methods but also innovative methodologies in quantitative finance.

"User level: intermediate-advanced"--Back cover.

Ideal material for private study or revision, this accessible volume will be required reading for anyone collecting, analyzing and presenting a range of data. It is particularly relevant to the task of planning sample data collection such as customer surveys.

This book analyzes the influence of electric vehicles on microclimate and the indirect influence on power load from a unique perspective.
