Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -This is a timely collection of important biomedical applications for a set of separation/characterization techniques that are rapidly gaining popularity due to their wide dynamic range, high resolution, and ability to function in most commonly used solvent systems. Importantly, the field-flow fractionation (FFF) technique has recently emerged as a prominent complement to size exclusion chromatography for protein pharmaceuticals. Fractionation with FFF is gentle and preserves protein structural integrity better than existing alternatives. In the present text, different chapters are written by experts in their respective field of application, who offer comparisons between the FFF techniques and other methods for characterizing their special focus material. Practical guide-lines for successful implementation, such as choice of operating conditions, are offered in conjunction with each application. In addition to new instrumentation and approaches that address important current topics, readers are provided with an overall sense of prior (but timeless) major developments that may be overlooked in literature searches.Springer Verlag GmbH, Tiergartenstr. 17, 69121 Heidelberg 316 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -The discovery of new cell types, such asgrid and time cells,in the hippocampus has been accompanied by major anatomical and theoretical insights in the recent years. This book provides comprehensive, up-to-date information about the hippocampal formation and especially the neural basis of episodic memory, spatial location (the formation of the cognitive map) and temporal representation.The first part of the book describes the information flow from pre-hippocampal areas into the hippocampus, the second part discusses the different types of hippocampal processing and finally, the third part depicts the influence that the hippocampal processing has on other brain structures that are perhaps more closely tied to explicit cognitive or behavioral output. This book is intended for neuroscientists, especially for those who are involved in research on the hippocampus, as well as for behavioral scientists and neurologists.Springer Verlag GmbH, Tiergartenstr. 17, 69121 Heidelberg 580 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -It has been known for over 150 years that hallmarks of inflammation can be observed in the wall of atherosclerotic vessels. It was, however, not clear if this inflammation is the cause or the consequence of atherogenesis.More recently, it has become evident that inflammation mediated both by innate and adaptive immunity is instrumental even in the earliest stages of the development of atherosclerotic lesions, i.e., that it plays an important pathogenetic role.In this volume, international experts in the field discuss the pathogenetic, diagnostic, preventive and possible therapeutic relevance of inflammation in atherogenesis. This book is intended for researchers and physicians in the fields of vascular biology, immunology and atherosclerosis.Springer Verlag GmbH, Tiergartenstr. 17, 69121 Heidelberg 644 pp. Englisch.

In this book three fundamental aspects of the variational formulation of mechanics will be presented: physical, mathematical and applicative ones. The first aspect concerns the investigation of the nature of real physical problems with the aim of finding the best variational formulation suitable to those problems. The second aspect is the study of the well-posedeness of those mathematical problems which need to be solved in order to draw previsions from the formulated models. And the third aspect is related to the direct application of variational analysis to solve real engineering problems.Springer Verlag GmbH, Tiergartenstr. 17, 69121 Heidelberg 368 pp. Englisch.

Today these cloud services cover a huge variety of corporate applications, especially enterprise resource planning, business intelligence, video, voice communication, collaboration, messaging and mobility services. The book was written by senior cloud pioneers sharing their technology foresight combining essential information and practical experiences. This valuable compilation helps both practitioners and clients to really understand which new types of services are readily available, how they really work and importantly how to benefit from the cloud. Dr. Marcus Hacke - Senior Vice President, T-Systems International GmbHThis book provides a conceptual framework and very timely guidance for people and organizations building applications for the cloud. Patterns are a proven approach to building robust and sustainable applications and systems. The authors adapt and extend it to cloud computing, drawing on their own experience and deep contributions to the field. Each pattern includes an extensive discussion of the state of the art, with implementation considerations and practical examples that the reader can apply to their own projects. By capturing our collective knowledge about building good cloud applications and by providing a format to integrate new insights, this book provides an important tool not just for individual practitioners and teams, but for the cloud computing community at large.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -Das vorliegende Buch hat den Zweck, die Grundlagen der Elektrochemie dem Leser in einer möglichst einfachen und auch für den Nichtspezialisten ver ständlichen Form zu vermitteln. Es setzt daher nur ein Minimum an Vorkennt nissen in der Chemie und physikalischen Chemie voraus. Aus diesem Grunde eignet es sich als Lehrbuch, ist aber auch ein praktischer Ratgeber, da ich darin viele Zahlenangaben gesammelt und in'Tabellenform zusammengestellt habe, die in der Literatur verstreut und oft nicht leicht zugänglich sind. Es ist unmöglich, in einem Band die gesamte Theorie und alle Anwendungen der Elektrochemie zusammenfassend darzustellen, ohne ihn zu einer allzu voluminösen Abhandlung anwachsen zu lassen. Das vorliegende Buch entwickelt daher in erster Linie jenen Teil der Theorie, der zu speziell ist, um in einem Werk über allgemeine physikalische Chemie Platz zu finden, und untersucht in zweiter Linie, wie die allgemeinen, aus dem Studium der physikalischen Chemie schon bekannten und in diesem Buch in der speziellen elektrochemischen Richtung weiter entwickelten Auffassungen über chemische Umsetzungen auf die elektro chemischen Vorgänge angewendet werden können. In meiner Darstellung habe ich immer getrachtet, nicht nur die zu unserem festen Besitzstand gehörenden Ergebnisse, sondern auch die Schwierigkeiten und Unsicherheiten, die immer noch auf theoretischem und experimentellem Gebiete bestehen, hervorzuheben. 436 pp. Deutsch.
