Kennedy in Berlin

Kennedy in Berlin

Andreas W. Daum

Cambridge University Press
2007
pokkari
Kennedy in Berlin examines one of the most spectacular political events of the twentieth century. It tells the story of the enthusiastically celebrated visit that US president John F. Kennedy paid to Berlin, the 'frontline city of the Cold War,' in June 1963. The president's tour resonated around the world, not least on account of Kennedy's famous declaration – 'Ich bin ein Berliner.' Andreas W. Daum sets Kennedy's visit against the background of the special relationship that had developed between the United States and West Berlin in the wake of World War II, and Kennedy in Berlin is an innovative contribution to the study of transatlantic relations, the Cold War, and the conduct of diplomacy in the age of mass media. Using a broad range of sources, this book sheds new light on the interplay between politics and culture in the modern era.

Alexander von Humboldt

Alexander von Humboldt

Andreas W. Daum

PRINCETON UNIVERSITY PRESS
2024
sidottu
An engaging account of the life and work of the legendary polymath Alexander von HumboldtIn this lucid biography, Andreas Daum offers a succinct and novel interpretation of the life and oeuvre of Alexander von Humboldt (1769-1859). A Prussian nobleman born into the age of European Enlightenment, Humboldt was a contemporary of Napoleon, Simón Bolívar, and Charles Darwin. As a naturalist and scholar, he traveled the world, from the Americas to Central Asia, and recorded his observations in multiple volumes. Humboldt is still admired today for his interdisciplinary outreach and ecological awareness.Moving beyond the conventional views of Humboldt as either intellectual superhero or gentleman colonizer, Daum’s incisive account focuses on Humboldt in the context of the tumultuous period of history in which he lived. Humboldt embodied the contradictions that marked the age of Atlantic Revolutions. He became a critic of slavery and embraced the emerging civil society but remained close to authoritarian rulers. He dedicated his life to scientific research yet was driven by emotional impulses and pleaded for an aesthetic appreciation of nature. Daum introduces a man passionately striving to establish a “cosmic” understanding of nature while grappling with the era’s explosion of knowledge.This book provides the first concise biography of Humboldt, covering all periods of his life, exploring his personality, the vast range of his works, and his intellectual networks. Daum helps us understand Humboldt as a seminal historical figure and illuminates the role of science at the dawn of the global world.

Principles of Abrasive Water Jet Machining

Principles of Abrasive Water Jet Machining

Andreas W. Momber; Radovan Kovacevic

Springer London Ltd
2012
nidottu
Abrasive water jet machining was introduced to manufacturing ten years ago and has been increasingly used for treating hard-to-machine and multi-layered materials and as an alternative tool for milling, turning, drilling and polishing. This is the first comprehensive review of the technique, dealing with a broad range of issues including mixing and acceleration processes, material removal mechanisms, process optimization and fluid mechanics. Explanations are given as the book follows the development of an abrasive water jet machining process, from tool generation through to machining results, supervision and control. This methodical journey through the field is marked by drawings, graphs and tables, many of which are being published here for the first time. Though the book is written at an academic level, it focuses very much on practical applications, which reflects the authors' extensive involvement with both laboratory research and industrial practices.

Die Direkten Reden Der Massen in Lucans «Pharsalia»

Die Direkten Reden Der Massen in Lucans «Pharsalia»

Andreas W Schmitt

Peter Lang AG
1995
nidottu
In keinem Epos der Antike, das uns erhalten ist, wird den Massen soviel Raum gegeben wie in Lucans "Pharsalia." Besonders auffallig wird dies in den Reden, die sie oder ihre Reprasentanten halten. In dieser Studie werden die Aussagen der Massen untersucht. Es geht dabei um den Beitrag, den die Reden fur die Interpretation des Epos leisten. Zu diesem Zweck werden sie sowohl in ihren literarischen als auch historischen Kontext gestellt."

Magnetothermal Properties near Quantum Criticality in the Itinerant Metamagnet Sr3Ru2O7

Magnetothermal Properties near Quantum Criticality in the Itinerant Metamagnet Sr3Ru2O7

Andreas W Rost

Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH Co. K
2010
sidottu
Our department nominated this thesis for a Springer award because we regard it as an outstanding piece of work, carried out with a remarkable level of independence. Andreas Rost joined us in 2005, as one of the inaugural Prize Students of the Scottish Universities Physics Alliance. Our research group has been working on Sr Ru O , in collaboration with our colleagues in the group of Professor Y. Maeno 3 2 7 at Kyoto, since 1998. By early 2005 we had tantalising evidence that a novel phase was forming at very low temperatures, in an overall phase diagram dominated by quantum ?uctuations. We knew that comprehensive thermodynamic information would be needed in order to understand how this was happening, and that the demanding constraints of low temperature and high magnetic ?eld meant that bespoke apparatus would need to be constructed. Andreas had studied the speci?c heat of glasses below 50 mK during his diploma thesis work at Heidelberg, and was brimming with ideas about how to proceed. We gave him advice, and constantly discussed the physics with him, but quickly realised that the best way to proceed practically was to give him a budget, and let him take the main design decisions, double-checking with us from time to time.

Handbuch der Oberflächenbearbeitung Beton

Handbuch der Oberflächenbearbeitung Beton

Andreas W. Momber; Rolf-Rainer Schulz

Birkhauser Verlag AG
2005
sidottu
Die Bearbeitung und Prüfung von Betonoberflächen ist in zweierlei Hinsicht von Bedeutung: Zum einen werden in der Architektur Verfahren zur Oberflächenbearbeitung gezielt zur Gestaltung von Betonoberflächen eingesetzt; zum anderen müssen im Rahmen von Instandsetzungsmaßnahmen Betontraggründe wiederhergestellt und für die Beschichtung saniert werden. Das Buch beschreibt die Verfahren zur Oberflächenbearbeitung nach den Kriterien: Wirkungsmechanismus, Komponenten, Anwendungsbereiche, erzeugte Traggrundqualität, Arbeits- und Gesundheitsschutz sowie Entsorgung und Kosten. Im zweiten Teil des Buches werden Prüfungsmethoden und Beurteilungskriterien beschrieben, die für die Qualität des Betonuntergrundes ausschlaggebend sind. Abschliessend geben die Autoren Hinweise zur Verfahrensauswahl, zu Ausschreibungs- und Vergaberichtlinien sowie zu Umweltschutzmaßnahmen.

Recommender Systems for Information Providers

Recommender Systems for Information Providers

Andreas W. Neumann

Physica-Verlag GmbH Co
2009
sidottu
Information providers are a very promising application area of recommender systems due to the general problem of assessing the quality of information products prior to the purchase. Recommender systems automatically generate product recommendations: customers profit from a faster finding of relevant products, stores profit from rising sales. All aspects of recommender systems are covered: the economic background, mechanism design, a survey of systems in the Internet, statistical methods and algorithms, service oriented architectures, user interfaces, as well as experiences and data from real-world applications. Specific solutions for areas with strong privacy concerns, scalability issues for large collections of products, as well as algorithms to lessen the cold-start problem for a faster return on investment of recommender projects are addressed. This book describes all steps it takes to design, implement, and successfully operate a recommender system for a specific information platform.
