In diesem Buch diskutiert Wei Sun das Wesen von Xunzis konfuzianischer Philosophie durch einen umfassenden Vergleich mit Konfuzius, Mencius und Denkern anderer Schulen wie Zhuangzi, Mozi und Shang Yang. Durch die Untersuchung der Herausforderungen, mit denen die konfuzianischen Lehren zur Zeit Xunzis konfrontiert waren, zu Fragen des Lernens und des Wissens, der Debatte ber die menschliche Natur und die Auswirkungen auf die moralische Kultivierung und die Art und Weise des Regierens sowie des Problems, utopische Moral und politische Realit ten in Einklang zu bringen, zeigt Wei Sun, wie Xunzi die fr heren moralischen, sozialen und politischen Philosophien von Konfuzius und Mencius verbesserte, indem er die Ansichten anderer Schulen ber cksichtigte.

In questo libro, Wei Sun discute la natura della filosofia confuciana di Xunzi attraverso un confronto completo con Confucio, Mencio e pensatori di altre scuole come Zhuangzi, Mozi e Shang Yang. Attraverso l'esplorazione delle sfide che affrontano gli insegnamenti confuciani al tempo di Xunzi, sulle questioni dell'apprendimento e della conoscenza, il dibattito sulla natura umana e le implicazioni per la coltivazione morale e i modi di governo, e il problema di conciliare la moralit utopica e le realt politiche, Wei Sun mostra come Xunzi abbia migliorato le precedenti filosofie morali, sociali e politiche di Confucio e Mencio tenendo conto delle opinioni di altre scuole.

Offers a comprehensive introduction to the issues of control of power systems during cascading outages and restoration process Power System Control Under Cascading Failures offers comprehensive coverage of three major topics related to prevention of cascading power outages in a power transmission grid: modelling and analysis, system separation and power system restoration. The book examines modelling and analysis of cascading failures for reliable and efficient simulation and better understanding of important mechanisms, root causes and propagation patterns of failures and power outages. Second, it covers controlled system separation to mitigate cascading failures addressing key questions such as where, when and how to separate. Third, the text explores optimal system restoration from cascading power outages and blackouts by well-designed milestones, optimised procedures and emerging techniques. The authors — noted experts in the field — include state-of-the-art methods that are illustrated in detail as well as practical examples that show how to use them to address realistic problems and improve current practices. This important resource: Contains comprehensive coverage of a focused area of cascading power system outages, addressing modelling and analysis, system separation and power system restorationOffers a description of theoretical models to analyse outages, methods to identify control actions to prevent propagation of outages and restore the systemSuggests state-of-the-art methods that are illustrated in detail with hands-on examples that address realistic problems to help improve current practicesIncludes companion website with samples, codes and examples to support the text Written for postgraduate students, researchers, specialists, planners and operation engineers from industry, Power System Control Under Cascading Failures contains a review of a focused area of cascading power system outages, addresses modelling and analysis, system separation, and power system restoration.

Revision with unchanged content. CATE enables a systematic application of computer-aided technologies, i.e., computer-aided design (CAD), image processing, computer-aided ma-nu-fac-tu-ring (CAM), and solid freeform fabrication (SFF) for modeling, designing, si-mulation, and manufacturing of biological tissue and organ sub-stitutes. Through the use of CATE, the design of intricate three dimensional ar-chi-tec-ture of scaffold can be realized and these scaffolds can be fabricated with re-producible accuracy to assist biologists in studying complex tissue en-gi-nee-r-ing problems. This book outlines research addressing some of the challenges in applying the CATE approach for the biomimetic design and freeform fabri-cation of tissue scaffolds. CATE enables many novel approaches in modeling, design, and fabrication of complex tissue substitutes with enhanced func-tio-nality for research in patient specific implant analysis and simulation, image guided surgical planning and scaffold guided tissue engineering. The research will also enable cell biologists and engineers to expand their scope of re-search and study in the field of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.

Minority invisibility has gone unnoticed in the communication discipline. It denies the existence of racial problems by consciously or unconsciously downplaying, ignoring, or over-simplifying the issues. This is evidenced from the claims of color-blindness and reverse discrimination, the belief in model minorities, and exaggerated, negative, or purposeful racial displays that permeate American culture. Using in-depth interviews with Asian-American professionals from various metropolitan areas, this study investigates these professionals' perceptions on minority invisibility and model minority status. It explores Asian Americans' ethnic consciousness on four levels, discussing how the group perceives their individual invisibility, their group members' invisibility, the invisibility of other American co-cultural groups, and finally their expectations in changing minority invisibility in the United States. The work considers diverse viewpoints on minority invisibility, model minority, satisfaction and dissatisfaction with mainstream American culture, and co-cultural ethnic relations. This study is useful to graduate and undergraduate students and researchers with an interest in race relations, Asian-American studies, co-cultural theory, and intercultural communication studies.
