Geometry of Individual Variation in Personality & Sleep-Wake Adaptability

Scientific investigation is often aimed on generation and description of a low dimensional simple form that is, however, an accurate representation of the structure of numerous empirically obtained variables. In despite of this aim, some scientific descriptions of real world structures are difficult to visualise due to their dimensional complexity. This book considers two such structures, the structure of personality lexicon and the structure of adaptive ability of the sleep-wake cycle.
Un libro che da molto tempo volevo leggere e che nessuno si mai degnato di proporre al popolo Italico, tradotto da una copia del 1893 della pubblica libreria di Boston una bellissima fiaba per grandi e piccini.
Jay Jenks is back! And about to fall into yet another perilous adventure. Jay and his friends, Tim and Ella, are on holiday by the shores of a Scottish sea loch. What else is there to do but to set out to investigate reported sightings of a monster in the loch? They're not sure what they hope to find, but it sure is exciting to think of the possibilities. However, matters are complicated by the strange, scientific experiments being carried out by Professor Ricardo, the great uncle of Jay’s friends. Their quest to find the monster and their curiosity leads them into new friendships but also into serious peril as they encounter sinister forces that ultimately threaten national security. Will Jay and his friends be able to help save the day? The Mystery of the Loch Kilgardie Monster is written in the engaging style and spirit of a classic children’s adventure. Readers will soon meet memorable characters they would want as their own friends and become absorbed in an adventure set in the kind of intriguing location they might, one day even, visit themselves.
This is a lyrical, tightly structured ebulliently detailed memoir, meticulous in its recollection of lives lived dangerously in the glamorous milieu of post-war London's notorious West End. But above all, a tender redemption of Russian father memories that crucially informed the writers life.Born into a bohemian world of eccentric doting parents and by virtue of his father's extraordinary life, Arkadi is absorbed into the protective fraternity of Soho's exotic 'demi-monde'. And by counterpoint, into a rarified Kensington society of exiled 'White Russian' aristocracy: social engagement with gangster and grand duchess encountered within the course of one day.When breaking free from a much-cocooned home existence, Arkadi's life runs unbridled: obsessed in pursuit of fashion, women and a burgeoning film business career. Amidst the glamour and clamour of West End nightlife, 60s Chelsea cool and its legends bought and sold, "I Have Always Loved My Name" catalogues a gallery of blazing characters, drama and comical anecdotes bursting from every page. This autobiographical piece will prove nostalgic for people who lived through the kaleidoscopic times of Swinging Sixties London and intriguing to those who did not.Penned particularly in homage to the extraordinary life and times of his Russian father, colourful Italian mother and eccentric extended family, I've Always Loved My Name' is also an astute contemplation in tracing the roots of ancestry. Arkadi's exploration into the mists of his father's cultural origins throws up seismic revelations and much reevaluation of what he believed to be true. This is a fascinating and engaging read that could be enjoyed and appreciated across age and cultural divide.

Internal Variables in Thermoelasticity
Arkadi Berezovski; Peter Ván
Springer International Publishing AG

sidottu
This book describes an effective method for modeling advanced materials like polymers, composite materials and biomaterials, which are, as a rule, inhomogeneous. The thermoelastic theory with internal variables presented here provides a general framework for predicting a material’s reaction to external loading. The basic physical principles provide the primary theoretical information, including the evolution equations of the internal variables. The cornerstones of this framework are the material representation of continuum mechanics, a weak nonlocality, a non-zero extra entropy flux, and a consecutive employment of the dissipation inequality. Examples of thermoelastic phenomena are provided, accompanied by detailed procedures demonstrating how to simulate them.
Optical Metamaterials: Qualitative Models

This textbook bridges the gap between university courses on electrodynamics and the knowledge needed to successfully address the problem of electrodynamics of metamaterials. It appeals to both experimentalists and theoreticians who are interested in the physical basics of metamaterials and plasmonics. Focusing on qualitative fundamental treatment as opposed to quantitative numerical treatment, it covers the phenomena of artificial magnetization at high frequencies, and discusses homogenization procedures and the basics of quantum dynamics in detail. By considering different phenomena it creates a self-consistent qualitative picture to explain most observable phenomena. This allows readers to develop a better understanding of the concepts, and helps to create a conceptual approach, which is especially important in educational contexts. This clearly written book includes problems and solutions for each chapter, which can be used for seminars and homework, as well as qualitative models that are helpful to students.
