Random Light Beams: Theory and Applications contemplates the potential in harnessing random light. This book discusses light matter interactions, and concentrates on the various phenomena associated with beam-like fields. It explores natural and man-made light fields and gives an overview of recently introduced families of random light beams. It outlines mathematical tools for analysis, suggests schemes for realization, and discusses possible applications. The book introduces the essential concepts needed for a deeper understanding of the subject, discusses various classes of deterministic paraxial beams and examines random scalar beams. It highlights electromagnetic random beams and matters relating to generation, propagation in free space and various media, and discusses transmission through optical systems. It includes applications that benefit from the use of random beams, as well as the interaction of beams with deterministic optical systems.• Includes detailed mathematical description of different model sources and beams• Explores a wide range of man-made and natural media for beam interaction • Contains more than 100 illustrations on beam behavior• Offers information that is based on the scientific results of the last several years • Points to general methods for dealing with random beams, on the basis of which the readers can do independent researchIt gives examples of light propagation through the human eye, laser resonators, and negative phase materials. It discusses in detail propagation of random beams in random media, the scattering of random beams from collections of scatterers and thin random layers as well as the possible uses for these beams in imaging, tomography, and smart illumination.
This book explains how to unlock unlimited personal creativity and to create a culture that supports emotional health, inventiveness, and success through a comprehensive examination of creative thinking that integrates theoretical, scientific, psychological, and sociological perspectives.How do we teach innovative thinking and stimulate creativity? Creative thinking is a highly desirable trait in today's world, where creativity lends the mental fitness and flexibility necessary to switch easily between patterns of thinking and contend with the constant changes that result from ongoing technological advancements. Yet research shows that the national level of creativity in both children and adults is declining. This book showcases methods that build "outside of the box" thinking skills that can empower people to succeed not only in school or work but in life in general, resulting in greater self-esteem, reduced stress, increased productivity, improved overall health, and more satisfaction in everyday life. Brainstorm! Practice for Unrestricted Imagination and Original Thought shows, with scientific proof, that the powerful engine of creativity has unlimited fuel and can power every sphere of life, from food preparation to personal relationships and from academia to government administration. It is a manual for leveraging creative thought in order to overcome barriers, solve difficult problems, and streamline and optimize day-to-day living. Educators, institutional leaders, and CEOs will discover how creativity-boosting courses and trainings can promote unprecedented performance and productivity among students and employees. Based on extensive research data and more than 100 interviews with experts worldwide, this accessible and engaging book presents vivid analogies and metaphors; insights from experts in various fields ranging from education to neurology, music, and technology; and fun exercises that make it clear that creativity is indispensable in every realm of life—and that anyone can take simple, effective steps to tap into their own creative potential.
Russian Irrationalism from Pushkin to Brodsky
Olga Tabachnikova
Bloomsbury Academic USA
2015
sidottu
Russia, once compared to a giant sphinx, is often considered in the Anglophone world an alien culture, often threatening and always enigmatic. Although recognizably European, Russian culture also has mystical features, including the idiosyncratic phenomenon of Russian irrationalism. Historically, Russian irrationalism has been viewed with caution in the West, where it is often seen as antagonistic to, and subversive of, the rational foundations of Western speculative philosophy. Some of the remarkable achievements of the Russian irrationalist approach, however, especially in the artistic sphere, have been recognized and even admired, though not sufficiently investigated. Bridging the gap between intellectual cultures, Olga Tabachnikova discusses such fundamental irrationalist themes as language and the linguistic underpinning of culture; the power of illusion in national consciousness; the changing relationship between love and morality; the cultural roots of humour, as well as the relevance of various individual writers and philosophers from Pushkin to Brodsky to the construction of Russian irrationalism.
Software-Implemented Hardware Fault Tolerance

Software-Implemented Hardware Fault Tolerance addresses the innovative topic of software-implemented hardware fault tolerance (SIHFT), i.e., how to deal with faults affecting the hardware by only (or mainly) acting on the software. The first SIHFT techniques were proposed and adopted several decades ago, but they have been the object of new interest in the past few years, mainly due to the need for developing low-cost safety-critical computer-based applications in fields such as automotive, biomedics, and telecommunications. Therefore, several new approaches to detect, and when possible correct, transient and permanent faults in the hardware have been recently proposed. These approaches are innovative (with respect to those proposed in the past) since they are of higher applicability (often starting from the source-level code of an application) and generality, being capable of coping with many different fault types. The book presents the theory behind software-implemented hardware fault tolerance, as well as the practical aspects related to put it at work on real examples. By evaluating accurately the advantages and disadvantages of the already available approaches, the book provides a guide to developers willing to adopt software-implemented hardware fault tolerance in their applications. Moreover, the book identifies open issues for researchers willing to improve the already available techniques.
Olga Bakich’s biography of Valerii Pereleshin (1913–1992) follows the turbulent life and exquisite poetry of one of the most remarkable Russian émigrés of the twentieth century. Born in Irkutsk, Pereleshin lived for thirty years in China and for almost forty years in Brazil. Multilingual, he wrote poetry in Russian and in Portuguese and translated Chinese and Brazilian poetry into Russian and Russian and Chinese poetry into Portuguese. For many years he struggled to accept and express his own identity as a gay man within a frequently homophobic émigré community. His poems addressed his three homelands, his religious struggles, and his loves. In Valerii Pereleshin: The Life of a Silkworm, Bakich delves deep into Pereleshin’s poems and letters to tell the rich life story of this underappreciated writer.

This Unique Book is most beneficial when treated as a Workbook. Confidence is a feeling we create and keep while being in constant progress. For that reason the book contains exercises which can boost your confidence almost at once. Some exercises stated here are performed during the Confidence Workshops run by the author yet adjusted for the reader. The book can become your constant companion as the exercises described here are timeless and will apply to any situation in your life when a boost of confidence is vital. The wealth of experience the author has, means that the exercises and text in the book are equally applicable to successful entrepreneurs who would like to take a next important step in their career and to a student looking to start a new career, who may have an important job interview the next day, as well as to a housewife whose capability to manage everyday chores may impress any CEO, yet who feels intimidated when the matter applies to her personal interests.
Knit beautiful top-down sweaters with 12 different decorative yokes Classic yoke sweaters never go out of style - a yoke is the perfect canvas for textured and colorwork patterns, and this collection of knitting patterns features designs for 12 different sweaters which will have you reaching for your needles. Yoke sweaters are practical and beautiful - a colorwork yoke can take a simple knitted sweater to another level by introducing a decorative element at the neckline of the jumper. Knitting pattern designer and author, Olga Putano, has designed three basic sweaters patterns for different yarn weights: DK; fingering (also known as sock or 4ply), and worsted (aran), so you can choose your preferred style, and then there are patterns for four different yoke designs for each of the basic sweaters. The sweater yoke designs feature stunning but simple colourwork so you can get really creative with your favourite colour palette. The designs look intricate but they are all worked in two colours, so they are easier than they look. The patterns only use two colours in a row, so they are suitable for beginner to intermediate knitters but exciting enough to appeal to experienced knitters. The textured yoke designs are a subtle way to add interest around the neckline with simple cabling techniques, and there are step-by-step instructions for cable stitch as well as any other special stitches and techniques. All the sweaters in this collection are knitted top down and in the round which means there is no sewing up to do at the end. The whole yoke section is knitted in one piece, increasing as you go until it reaches the correct circumference and then the body and sleeves are knitted in the round separately. This means that you can adjust the length of the sweater to get the perfect fit by trying it on as you go. Fit is important when it comes to sweater knitting and all the patterns have been graded to a wide range of sizes, up to a size 68" chest. Knitting in the round has other benefits too: you can't drop stitches, the weight of the stitches can be more evenly distributed making it a more comfortable way to knit for some people, and when doing stockinette (stocking) stitch there is no need to purl.

ОЛЬГА ГРОТЕНГЕЛЬМ НЕОКОНЧЕННАЯ САГА Это книга повествует об истории моей семьи, которая, как и многие тысячи других дореволюционных семей, была вовлечена в водоворот революционных событий. Книга повествует о нелегких судьбах людей прошлой и советской России, одним из которых выпала тяжелая эмигрантская доля, другим - большевистский террор и сталинские лагеря. Это повествование - плач по старой России, уничтоженной немилосердным ветром революции 1917 года, по людям, ставшим ее жертвами, по тем, у кого до сих пор нет могил, а память о них стерта столетием коммунистического режима. Книга посвящена также русской эмиграции, среди которой был и мой прадед, похороненный в Белграде, и брат моей прабабушки, чье место захоронения до сих пор неизвестно. Я писала обо всех этих людях в надежде, что, быть может, откликнется кто-то, кому известны имена или судьбы тех, о ком я упоминаю в своей саге. Все имена и фамилии подлинные, а генеалогические материалы взяты из открытых архивных источников Швеции, Германии, Эстонии, Латвии и России. Использован также семейный архив и семейные воспоминания.
