Calendar units, such as months and days, clock units, such as hours and seconds, and specialized units, such as business days and academic years, play a major role in a wide range of information system applications. System support for reasoning about these units, called granularities in this book, is important for the efficient design, use, and implementation of such applications. The book deals with several aspects of temporal information and provides a unifying model for granularities. It is intended for computer scientists and engineers who are interested in the formal models and technical development of specific issues. Practitioners can learn about critical aspects that must be taken into account when designing and implementing databases supporting temporal information. Lecturers may find this book useful for an advanced course on databases. Moreover, any graduate student working on time representation and reasoning, either in data or knowledge bases, should definitely read it.

The majority of books dealing with prospects for interstellar flight tackle the problem of the propulsion systems that will be needed to send a craft on an interstellar trajectory. The proposed book looks at two other, equally important aspects of such space missions, and each forms half of this two part book. Part 1 looks at the ways in which it is possible to exploit the focusing effect of the Sun as a gravitational lens for scientific missions to distances of 550 AU and beyond into interstellar space. The author explains the mechanism of the Sun as a gravitational lens, the scientific investigations which may be carried out along the way to a distance of 550 AU (and at the 550 AU sphere itself), the requirements for exiting the Solar System at the highest speed and a range of project ideas for missions entering interstellar space. Part 2 of the book deals with the problems of communicating between an interstellar spaceship and the Earth, especially at very high speeds. Here the author assesses a range of mathematical tools relating to the Karhunen-Loève Transform (KLT) for optimal telecommunications, technical topics that may one day enable humans flying around the Galaxy to keep in contact with the Earth. This part of the book opens with a summary of the author’s 2003 Pešek Lecture presented at the IAC in Bremen, which introduces the concept of KLT for engineers and ‘newcomers’ to the subject. It is planned to include a DVD containing the full mathematical derivations of the KLT for those interested in this important mathematical tool whilst the text itself will contain the various results without outlines of the mathematical proofs. Astronautical engineers will thus be able to see the application of the results without getting bogged down in the mathematics.

This third edition of Future Spacecraft Propulsion Systems and Integration – Enabling Technologies for Space Exploration, has been updated and expanded. The major addition addresses the multi-disciplinary integration between the spectrum of hypersonic vehicles to reach Earth orbit and that of their propulsion systems. A best-practice sizing approach is presented to define the solution spaces and facilitate the correct design of these integrated flight vehicles to mission. This pragmatic approach is the essential capability sought after by design teams, technology forecasters and strategic planners alike, and includes lesson learned and space launchers as examples from the past. Among novel systems, the chapter on future combined engines includes now description and performance of pulsed detonation engines. All aspects of space flight discussed in the first two editions have been updated and augmented to account for the many changes in technology, policy and space objectives following the demise of the US Shuttle and the appearance of private space companies. Accordingly, the chapters dealing with near-Earth, interplanetary, galactic and future breakthrough propulsion have been expanded to include new applications, such as nuclear magnetic pulses, recent concept powered by inertial fusion, and new issues as, for instance, space radiation, a major obstacle to space exploration and commercialization in the years to come. This book can be useful to graduate students and teachers, as well as industrial organizations and planners.

This book introduces the Statistical Drake Equation where, from a simple product of seven positive numbers, the Drake Equation is turned into the product of seven positive random variables. The mathematical consequences of this transformation are demonstrated and it is proven that the new random variable N for the number of communicating civilizations in the Galaxy must follow the lognormal probability distribution when the number of factors in the Drake equation is allowed to increase at will.Mathematical SETI also studies the proposed FOCAL (Fast Outgoing Cyclopean Astronomical Lens) space mission to the nearest Sun Focal Sphere at 550 AU and describes its consequences for future interstellar precursor missions and truly interstellar missions. In addition the author shows how SETI signal processing may be dramatically improved by use of the Karhunen-Loève Transform (KLT) rather than Fast Fourier Transform (FFT). Finally, he describes the efforts made to persuade the UnitedNations to make the central part of the Moon Far Side a UN-protected zone, in order to preserve the unique radio-noise-free environment for future scientific use.

Spectral methods, particularly in their multidomain version, have become firmly established as a mainstream tool for scientific and engineering computation. While retaining the tight integration between the theoretical and practical aspects of spectral methods that was the hallmark of their 1988 book, Canuto et al. now incorporate the many improvements in the algorithms and the theory of spectral methods that have been made since then. This second new treatment, Evolution to Complex Geometries and Applications to Fluid Dynamics, provides an extensive overview of the essential algorithmic and theoretical aspects of spectral methods for complex geometries, in addition to detailed discussions of spectral algorithms for fluid dynamics in simple and complex geometries. Modern strategies for constructing spectral approximations in complex domains, such as spectral elements, mortar elements, and discontinuous Galerkin methods, as well as patching collocation, are introduced, analyzed, and demonstrated by means of numerous numerical examples. Representative simulations from continuum mechanics are also shown. Efficient domain decomposition preconditioners (of both Schwarz and Schur type) that are amenable to parallel implementation are surveyed. The discussion of spectral algorithms for fluid dynamics in single domains focuses on proven algorithms for the boundary-layer equations, linear and nonlinear stability analyses, incompressible Navier-Stokes problems, and both inviscid and viscous compressible flows. An overview of the modern approach to computing incompressible flows in general geometries using high-order, spectral discretizations is also provided. The recent companion book Fundamentals in Single Domains discusses the fundamentals of the approximation of solutions to ordinary and partial differential equations on single domains by expansions in smooth, global basis functions. The essential concepts and formulas from this book are included in thecurrent text for the reader’s convenience.

It is the objective of the series IIMaterials Research and Engineeringll to publish information on technical facts and pro­ cesses together with specific scientific models and theories. Fundamental considerations assist in the recognition of the origin of properties and the roots of processes. By providing a higher level of understanding, such considerations form the basis for further improving the quality of both traditional and future engineering materials, as well as the efficiency of industrial operations. In a more general sense, theory helps to integrate facts into a framework which ties relations between physical equilibria and mechanisms on the one hand, product development and econo­ mical competition on the other. Aspects of environmental compati­ bili ty, conservation of resources and of socio-cul tural inter­ action form the final horizon - a subject treated in the first ll volume of this series, IIMaterials in World Perspective . The four authors of the present book endeavor to present a comprehensive picture of process modelling in the important field of metal forming and thermomechanical treatment. The reader will be introduced to the rapidly-growing new field of application of computer-aided numerical methods to the quanti­ tative simulation of complex technical processes. Extensive use is made of the state of scientific knowledge related to materials behavior under mechanical stress and thermal treat­ ment.

Dieses Buch beschreibt die aktuellen Tätigkeiten der Investmentbanken, wobei die zehn größten als Referenzpunkte dienen. Bevor der Leser oder die Leserin ins Thema der Aktivitäten einsteigt, wird eine kurze Einführung in die Grundlagen gegeben. Es werden die wesentlichen Produkte, Akteure und Mechanismen dargestellt. Damit wird sichergestellt, dass auch der nicht allzu kundige das Thema bewältigen kann. Die Gliederung folgt den großen Themen von Investment Banking und Sales & Trade, die dann mit den weiteren Dienstleistungen angereichert werden. Traditionelle Geschäftsfelder anderer Marktteilnehmer, wie etwa Vermögensverwaltung, werden nicht sehr detailliert besprochen. Denn es liegt bereits eine unübersehbare Anzahl von Angeboten vor. Das Buch schließt mit einem Ausblick, der nur vorsichtig formuliert werden kann. Dennoch ist absehbar, dass die Investmentbanken eine Symbiose mit Fintechs und einen Übergang in neue Strukturen vollziehen werden.
Effekte des Einsatzes integrierter Unternehmenssoftware im kaufmännischen Unterricht an Berufsschulen
Obwohl der berufsschulische Einsatz integrierter Unternehmenssoftware, den sogenannten ERP-Systemen, in der einschlägigen Literatur seit geraumer Zeit diskutiert wird, gibt es bis heute kaum robuste empirische Untersuchungen zu dessen Wirksamkeit. Die vorliegende Studie untersucht die Effekte des ERP-Einsatzes sowie des begleitenden bzw. eigenständigen Einsatzes der Prozessmodellierung hinsichtlich kognitiver und motivationaler Zielgrößen mittels eines (quasi-)experimentellen Pre-/Posttest-Designs. Aus den Ergebnissen lassen sich bedeutsame Implikationen für die schulische Praxis ableiten.
Populism and Financial Markets

Populism and Financial Markets

The political phenomenon of populism has emerged as a significant force in recent decades, with a profound impact on the economic landscape. This book examines the implications of populism for financial markets, identifying it as a key political risk factor. As populist movements gain ground on a global scale, understanding their influence on financial behavior is essential, not only to navigate the complex investment environment of the present but also to anticipate future developments. The central research question addressed in this book is to understand the impact of populism on investor expectations and political risk assessment in financial markets. The findings suggest that populism increases market uncertainty, raises the returns required by the investors, and thus increases the cost of equity for firms. Emphasizing the need to integrate populist risks into financial assessments, this book provides both theoretical insights and practical guidance for investors, financial managers, and policymakers. It highlights the importance of developing adaptive strategies to manage the evolving risks of populism in global financial markets.
