The power consumption of microprocessors is one of the most important challenges of high-performance chips and portable devices. In chapters drawn from Piguet's recently published Low-Power Electronics Design, Low-Power CMOS Circuits: Technology, Logic Design, and CAD Tools addr…
You can never step in the same river twice, goes the old adage of philosophy. An observation on the transitory nature of fluids in motion, this saying also describes the endless variations researchers face when studying human movement. Understanding these biodynamics why the wir…
"This publication provides a comprehensive review of the behavior of pastes, suspensions, and granular materials as well as detailed analysis of rheometrical techniques. Everything needed to determine the behavior and movement of complex fluids is provided. It is, therefore, a r…
The aim of the book is to describe and analyse peculiarities of classical and quantum dynamics of a crystal as a spatially periodic structure. Both traditional questions like the spectrum of vibrations, the idea of phonon gas, dislocations etc. and new aspects like the theory of…

In the secondary literature on the biblical text it is often generally stated that bamot (so-called "high place" shrines), massebot (standing stones), 'aseri m (so-called "sacred trees" or "poles"), and certain mizbehot (altars), were universally condemned by the biblical writer…
Statistics show that out of five thousand compounds with initial promise, five will go into human clinical trials, and only one will become an approved drug. This tiny fraction illustrates the huge complexities involved in bringing a drug to market, a process that brings togethe…
This volume offers a step-by-step introduction to all the key processes involved in bringing a drug to the market, including the performance of pre-clinical studies, the conduct of human clinical trials, regulatory controls and manufacturing of drugs.
This thesis addresses the work of a relatively unknown nineteenth century Russian artist, Vasilii Vasilevich Vereshchagin. The focus of research on Vereshchagin is the series he painted in Central Asia in response to Russia's conquest of Turkestan. This work is examined within t…
