2010
nidottu
Polymer Microscopy, Third Edition, is a comprehensive and practical guide to the study of the microstructure of polymers, and is the result of the authors' many years of academic and industrial experience. To address the needs of students and professionals from a variety of backgrounds, introductory chapters deal with the basic concepts of both polymer morphology and processing and microscopy and imaging theory. The core of the book is more applied, with many examples of specimen preparation and image interpretation leading to materials characterization. Microscopy is applied to the characterization of a wide range of polymer systems, including fibers, films, engineering resins and plastics, composites, nanocomposites, polymer blends, emulsions and liquid crystalline polymers. Light microscopy, atomic force microscopy, and scanning and transmission electron microscopy techniques are all considered, as are emerging techniques such as compositional mapping in which microscopy is combined with spectroscopy. This extensively updated and revised Third Edition closes with a problem solving guide, which gives a systematic framework for deciding on suitable approaches to the characterization of polymer microstructure. Key Features: Revised and updated, this Third Edition remains the gold standard for information on the characterization of polymer microstructure Presents a wide variety of polymer systems and characterization techniquesCovers the major advances in microscopy and polymers since the publication of the Second Edition in 1996Describes new methods for use with the SPM and related to advances in cryo-TEM as well as new polymer materials such as nanocompositesIncludes both basic and applied topics making this book ideal as a professional reference and as a teaching text

The Expansion of Metaphysics

The Expansion of Metaphysics

Miklos Veto; David T Carr

Cascade Books
2018
pokkari
The culmination of a lifetime's preoccupation with crucial human concerns too often curiously marginalized by the history of philosophy, The Expansion of Metaphysics sheds new light on freedom and the will by making the phenomenon of novelty philosophically intelligible. The a priori synthesis of Kant is joined to Judeo-Christian themes (the kenosis of Christ in the incarnation and the tzimtzum of God in the creation) in order to develop a doctrine of ""superabundance"" (freedom and love) and ""singularity"" (with the Work of Art and the Child as paradigms). Space and time are reanalyzed as structural forms of human existence as Vető guides the reader into the depths and heights of reality, climaxing in a metaphysics of good and evil. ""From one of the foremost scholars of German Idealism in our day there comes a book that gives us his personal vision of metaphysics. Miklos Vető's The Expansion of Metaphysics presents a Christian metaphysics, one broadened from classical and romantic models to take proper account of the image, the new, and the singular, and finished with a capacious and engaging understanding of essence. Among other things, this is a book of wisdom. No one who reads it can remain unchanged by its teachings."" --Kevin Hart, The University of Virginia ""Miklos Vető has been well known for decades as an illuminating interpreter of Berulle, Jonathan Edwards, Schelling and Simone Weil--to name a few. It is high time to discover that he could read them because he is a philosopher in his own right. . . . As a book, everyone will find it thoroughly enjoyable. And one must thank Chris Hackett for a fine translation of Vető's always elegant text."" --Jean-Yves Lacoste, Clare Hall, Australian Catholic University, Cambridge ""In its trans-epochal reach, Miklos Vető's Expansion of Metaphysics . . . enables students of philosophy to ask the big questions once again: about self, will, evil, the good, love, creation, and God. The agent of this expansion is a renewal of Kant's transcendental phenomenology and of its premodern sources: recovering the agency of will beyond being, of self and other, which is the agency of the good, agency of the loving creator whose gifts perpetually renewed, are being and existence."" --Peter Ochs, Professor, Department of Religious Studies, University of Virginia Miklos Vető is a Hungarian-born French philosopher who taught successively at Marquette, Yale, Abidjan, Rennes, and Poitiers universities. Widely known as a historian of German Idealism, his works have been translated into many languages. He is the author of The Religious Metaphysics of Simone Weil. William C. Hackett is Adjunct Professor of Philosophy and the Honors Program at Belmont University. He is the translator of several works from French to English, including Jean Wahl's Human Existence and Transcendence.

nidottu
The goal of this book is to introduce a reader to a new philosophy of teaching and learning physics - Investigative Science Learning Environment, or ISLE (pronounced as a small island).ISLE is an example of an "intentional" approach to curriculum design and learning activities (MacMillan and Garrison 1988 A Logical Theory of Teaching: Erotetics and Intentionality). Intentionality means that the process through which the learning occurs is as crucial for learning as the final outcome or learned content. In ISLE, the process through which students learn mirrors the practice of physics.

LO QUE CREES SOBRE LA POL TICA IMPORTA En las ltimas d cadas se han multiplicado las visiones alternativas de la vida pol tica, desde el nacionalismo tnico hasta el liberalismo individualista, visiones que han irrumpido en los titulares de los peri dicos de innumerables formas.Las ideolog as pol ticas no son una mera cuesti n de eficacia gubernamental, sino que son intr nsecas e ineludiblemente religiosas: cada una de ellas conlleva ciertos supuestos sobre la naturaleza de la realidad, los individuos y la sociedad, as como una visi n particular del bien com n. Estas creencias fundamentales trascienden la esfera pol tica, y el observador cristiano astuto puede discernir las formas -a veces sutiles, a veces no- en que las ideolog as pol ticas est n arraigadas en cosmovisiones id latras.En este exhaustivo estudio, el reconocido polit logo evang lico David Koyzis pasa revista a las principales ideolog as pol ticas de nuestra poca, entre ellas el liberalismo, el conservadurismo, el nacionalismo, la democracia y el socialismo, analizando detenidamente cada una de ellas, y ofreciendo una cr tica erudita e imparcial. El Dr. Koyzis concluye proponiendo modelos alternativos de pol tica que surgen del compromiso hist rico del cristianismo con la esfera p blica por siglos.

Simio & Simulation: Modeling, Analysis, Application: Third Edition, Japanese Translation

Simio & Simulation: Modeling, Analysis, Application: Third Edition, Japanese Translation

Enjoy learning a key technology. Undergraduates and beginning graduates in both first and second simulation courses have responded positively to the approach taken in this text, which illustrates simulation principles using the popular Simio product. This economy version substitutes grayscale interior graphics to keep costs low for students. Content: This textbook explains how to use simulation to make better business decisions in application domains from healthcare to mining, heavy manufacturing to supply chains, and everything in between. It is written to help both technical and non-technical users better understand the concepts and usefulness of simulation. It can be used in a classroom environment or in support of independent study. Modern software makes simulation more useful and accessible than ever and this book illustrates simulation concepts with Simio, a leader in simulation software. Author Statement: This book can serve as the primary text in first and second courses in simulation at both the undergraduate and beginning-graduate levels. It is written in an accessible tutorial-style writing approach centered on specific examples rather than general concepts, and covers a variety of applications including an international flavor. Our experience has shown that these characteristics make the text easier to read and absorb, as well as appealing to students from many different cultural and applications backgrounds. A first simulation course would probably cover Chapter 1 through 8 thoroughly, and likely Chapters 9 and 10, particularly for upper class or graduate level students. For a second simulation course, it might work to skip or quickly review Chapters 1-3 and 6, thoroughly cover all other chapters up to Chapter 10, and use Chapter 11 as reinforcing assignments. The text or components of it could also support a simulation module of a few weeks within a larger survey course in programs without a stand-alone simulation course (e.g., MBA). For a simulation module that's part of a larger survey course, we recommend concentrating on Chapters 1, 4, and 5, and then perhaps lightly touch on Chapters 7 and 8. The extensibility introduced in Chapter 10 could provide some interesting project work for a graduate student with some programming background, as it could be easily linked to other research topics. Likewise Appendix A could be used as the lead-in to some advanced study or research in the latest techniques in simulation-based planning and scheduling. Supplemental course material is also available on-line. Third Edition: The new third edition adds sections on Randomness in Simulation, Model Debugging, and Monte Carlo simulation. In addition, the coverage of animation, input analysis and output analysis has been significantly expanded. There is a new appendix on simulation-based scheduling, end-of-chapter problems have been improved and expanded, and we have incorporated many reader suggestions. We have reorganized the material for improved flow, and have updates throughout the book for many of the new Simio features recently added. A new format better supports our e-book users, and a new publisher supports significant cost reduction for our readers.
