Auf Einladung der Deutschen Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) fand am 9. und 10. Marz 2000 ein Rundgesprach uber heutige und kunftige Moglichkeiten des Biomonitoring in Arbeits- und Umweltmedizin statt. Das Biomonitoring hat nicht zuletzt durch die unmittelbare Umsetzung der Arbeitsergebnisse der Senatskommission zur Prufung gesundheitsschadlicher Arbeitsstoffe in geltendes Recht durch die deutsche Arbeitsschutzgesetzgebung in den letzten drei?ig Jah ...
Computational spectroscopy is a rapidly evolving field that is becoming a versatile and widespread tool for the assignment of experimental spectra and their interpretation as related to chemical physical effects. This book is devoted to the most significant methodological contributions in the field, and to the computation of IR, UV-VIS, NMR and EPR spectral parameters with reference to the underlying vibronic and environmental effects. Each sect ...
The proposed is written as a senior undergraduate or the first-year graduate textbook,covering modern thermal devices such as heat sinks, thermoelectric generators and coolers, heat pipes, and heat exchangers as design components in larger systems. These devices are becoming increasingly important and fundamental in thermal design across such diverse areas as microelectronic cooling, green or thermal energy conversion, and thermal control and ma ...
Mehr als 9000 Meter tief im Erdinneren Genau 9101 Meter schaffte der Tiefbohrer in Windischeschenbach, dann versagte er aufgrund der gro?en Hitze von mehr als 300 Grad. Welche Schichten im Erdinneren stecken und wie diese beschaffen sind, das analysiert Georg Schwedt hier hochst anschaulich. Er reist entlang der «Deutschen Vulkanstra?e», und ganz nebenbei erfahren die Leser zum Beispiel, dass sie sich bei einer Hornhautbehandlung mit Bims die Fu ...
This guide discusses chromosomal abnormalities and how best to report and communicate lab findings in research and clinical settings. Providing a standard approach to writing cytogenetic laboratory reports, the guide further covers useful guidance on implementing International System for Human Cytogenetic Nomenclature in reports. Part one of the guide explores chromosomal, FISH, and microarray analysis in constitutional cytogenetic analyses, whi ...
Promoting the Planck Club presents rich mini histories of selected scientists whose work led to radical and transformational discoveries, their background, the prevailing scientific environment, and the conditions that allowed for their success. The text provides a broad audience of students, scientists, engineers, economists, and policymakers with ways to ensure that we take all steps to protect the flow of unpredictable scientific discoveries ...
The only resource devoted Solely to Inductance Inductance is an unprecedented text, thoroughly discussing «loop» inductance as well as the increasingly important «partial» inductance. These concepts and their proper calculation are crucial in designing modern high-speed digital systems. World-renowned leader in electromagnetics Clayton Paul provides the knowledge and tools necessary to understand and calculate inductance. Unlike other texts, Ind ...
Die Makromolekulare Chemie (Polymerchemie) beschaftigt sich mit der Synthese, Isolierung, Charakterisierung und Modifizierung von gro?en Molekulen (Polymere). Diese Molekule konnen aus bis zu Hunderttausenden gleicher oder unterschiedlicher Bausteine (Monomere) bestehen und sind meistens als Ketten oder Netzwerke angeordnet. Neben den Biopolymeren (z.B. Zellulose, Enzyme, DNS) sind vor allem die synthetischen Polymere Polyethylen, Polypropylen, ...
Environmental awareness in Germany is closely linked to washing powder. The mountains of foam in many rivers during the hot summer of 1958 showed how Western lifestyles were incompatible with the environment: the surfactants in washing powder were biologically upgradeable or, at best, hardly degradable. This played a large role in creating environmental consciousness and in strengthening research into washing powders. Here the author disseminate ...
