Was f?r die Grundform der Erde gilt, muss nicht auch f?r die Grundform der Atome gelten. Die Annahme n?mlich, dass sie eine Kugelform aufweisen. Warum sollten Atome nicht flache Teilchensysteme bilden, ?hnlich molekularer Kohlenstoffschichten. Auch bei Graphen hielt man lange einen einlagigen Aufbau eines Kristallgitters durch Kohlenstoffatome f?r unm?glich(…).Man muss sich vor Augen halten, dass Nukleonen schnell rotierende Teilchen sind. Das wird auch von der Teilchenphysik best?tigt. Die entgegengesetzte Rotation der Nukleonen wird mit Spin up und Spin down bezeichnet, womit die Richtung des Drehimpulses gemeint ist. Doch die Teilchenphysik leitet davon keine f?r die Atomstruktur bedeutsame Funktion ab. Dabei ist es so einfach, von der Rotation der Nukleonen, bzw. von Spin up und Spin down auf ihre Struktur zu schlie?en. Es handelt sich schlie?lich um eine reale Rotation der Nukleonen, wenngleich eine sehr schnelle. Atome k?nnen deshalb nur wie Getriebe «funktionieren». Dreht sich ein Atombaustein rechts herum, muss sich der n?chste links herum drehen. Der Atomaufbau ist also die Folge der um 180° entgegengesetzten Achsenlage der Nukleonen. SPIN UP und SPIN DOWN. Die Atombausteine Proton und Neutron unterliegen in dieser Beziehung den gleichen mechanischen Gesetzen, wie andere schnell rotierende K?rper auch.

One of the first books to provide in-depth and systematic application of finite element methods to the field of stochastic structural dynamics The parallel developments of the Finite Element Methods in the 1950’s and the engineering applications of stochastic processes in the 1940’s provided a combined numerical analysis tool for the studies of dynamics of structures and structural systems under random loadings. In the open literature, there are books on statistical dynamics of structures and books on structural dynamics with chapters dealing with random response analysis. However, a systematic treatment of stochastic structural dynamics applying the finite element methods seems to be lacking. Aimed at advanced and specialist levels, the author presents and illustrates analytical and direct integration methods for analyzing the statistics of the response of structures to stochastic loads. The analysis methods are based on structural models represented via the Finite Element Method. In addition to linear problems the text also addresses nonlinear problems and non-stationary random excitation with systems having large spatially stochastic property variations. A systematic treatment of stochastic structural dynamics applying the finite element methods Highly illustrated throughout and aimed at advanced and specialist levels, it focuses on computational aspects instead of theory Emphasizes results mainly in the time domain with limited contents in the time-frequency domain Presents and illustrates direction integration methods for analyzing the statistics of the response of linear and nonlinear structures to stochastic loads Under Author Information – one change of word to existing text: He is a Fellow of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)........

Man should examine with his eyes for what and whom he likes to be used. The night whispers soothingly until early morning, this with all, what is needed for life and threatens it. Therefore, take the early morning view over the open fields. The fresh seed will greet you from the grooves. After the view take the path and way in the twilight that the spicy smell of the wet soil can touch you. There will be many hot summers with the days of testing for meaning and value. Put the foot firmly on the ground and into life, ask yourself what the new day desires. Then send your ear to the singing birds and hear from their songs the timeless song that accompanies you on your walk.
The beauty of the shapes you see are the young people from the villages countryside. With the years the skin gets wrinkled, it affects not only the foreheads and the hands. The word you said in the first view scored the meaning fully and met the mind. The untold story goes further, it brings the trodden-down tracks together. Go the way you have started and let you be taught from what you see. The time will come and the year will end before you reach the way back with half the load.

Der Mensch pr?fe es mit eigenem Auge, f?r was und wen er sich verbrauchen will. G?rend raunt die Nacht zum fr?hen Morgen mit dem, was das Leben braucht und es bedroht. Drum nimm den fr?hen Morgenblick ?ber Feld und Flur, dass dich aus den Furchen gr??t die frische Saat. Nach dem Blick nimm Weg und Pfad im D?mmerschein, lass dich ber?hren vom Gew?rz der nassen Scholle. Es wird noch viele hei?e Sommer geben mit den Tagen der Pr?fung nach Sinn und Wert. Setz den Fu? fest auf den Boden und ins Leben, stell dir die Frage, was der neue Tag begehrt. Dann schick dein Ohr den singenden V?geln entgegen und h?r aus ihren Ges?ngen das zeitlose Lied, das dich bei deinem Flurgang begleiten will.
Die Sch?nheit der Gestalten, die du siehst, sind die jungen Menschen aus den D?rfern. Faltig legt sich mit den Jahren die Haut nicht nur an den Stirnen und den H?nden. Das Wort, das du beim Anblick sagtest, griff die Bedeutung und ergriff das Gem?t. Die Geschichte geht unerz?hlt noch weiter, wie sie die ausgetretenen Wege zusammenf?hrt. So geh den Weg, den du begonnen hast, und lass dich von dem, was du siehst, belehren. Die Zeit wird kommen, und das Jahr wird enden, bevor du auf den R?ckweg triffst mit halber Last.

***Winner of the 2008 Ziegel Prize for outstanding new book of the year*** Structural equation modeling (SEM) is a powerful multivariate method allowing the evaluation of a series of simultaneous hypotheses about the impacts of latent and manifest variables on other variables, taking measurement errors into account. As SEMs have grown in popularity in recent years, new models and statistical methods have been developed for more accurate analysis of more complex data. A Bayesian approach to SEMs allows the use of prior information resulting in improved parameter estimates, latent variable estimates, and statistics for model comparison, as well as offering more reliable results for smaller samples. Structural Equation Modeling introduces the Bayesian approach to SEMs, including the selection of prior distributions and data augmentation, and offers an overview of the subject’s recent advances. Demonstrates how to utilize powerful statistical computing tools, including the Gibbs sampler, the Metropolis-Hasting algorithm, bridge sampling and path sampling to obtain the Bayesian results. Discusses the Bayes factor and Deviance Information Criterion (DIC) for model comparison. Includes coverage of complex models, including SEMs with ordered categorical variables, and dichotomous variables, nonlinear SEMs, two-level SEMs, multisample SEMs, mixtures of SEMs, SEMs with missing data, SEMs with variables from an exponential family of distributions, and some of their combinations. Illustrates the methodology through simulation studies and examples with real data from business management, education, psychology, public health and sociology. Demonstrates the application of the freely available software WinBUGS via a supplementary website featuring computer code and data sets. Structural Equation Modeling: A Bayesian Approach is a multi-disciplinary text ideal for researchers and students in many areas, including: statistics, biostatistics, business, education, medicine, psychology, public health and social science.

Analysis of Ordinal Categorical Data Alan Agresti Statistical Science Now has its first coordinated manual of methods for analyzing ordered categorical data. This book discusses specialized models that, unlike standard methods underlying nominal categorical data, efficiently use the information on ordering. It begins with an introduction to basic descriptive and inferential methods for categorical data, and then gives thorough coverage of the most current developments, such as loglinear and logit models for ordinal data. Special emphasis is placed on interpretation and application of methods and contains an integrated comparison of the available strategies for analyzing ordinal data. This is a case study work with illuminating examples taken from across the wide spectrum of ordinal categorical applications. 1984 (0 471-89055-3) 287 pp. Regression Diagnostics Identifying Influential Data and Sources of Collinearity David A. Belsley, Edwin Kuh and Roy E. Welsch This book provides the practicing statistician and econometrician with new tools for assessing the quality and reliability of regression estimates. Diagnostic techniques are developed that aid in the systematic location of data points that are either unusual or inordinately influential; measure the presence and intensity of collinear relations among the regression data and help to identify the variables involved in each; and pinpoint the estimated coefficients that are potentially most adversely affected. The primary emphasis of these contributions is on diagnostics, but suggestions for remedial action are given and illustrated. 1980 (0 471-05856-4) 292 pp. Applied Regression Analysis Second Edition Norman Draper and Harry Smith Featuring a significant expansion of material reflecting recent advances, here is a complete and up-to-date introduction to the fundamentals of regression analysis, focusing on understanding the latest concepts and applications of these methods.

Second, Groves has skillfully synthesized existing knowledge, bringing together in an easily accessible form empirical knowledge from a variety of sources. Third, he has managed to integrate into a common framework the contributions of several disciplines. For example, the work of psychometricians and cognitive psychologists is made relevant to the research of econometricians as well as the field experience of sociologists.

Symbiosis in Fishes provides comprehensive coverage of the biology of partnerships between fishes and invertebrates, ascending the phylogenetic scale, from luminescent bacteria, sponges and coelenterates to molluscs, crustaceans and echinoderms. Both facultative and obligatory partnerships are reviewed with emphasis on the behavioral, ecological and evolutionary aspects of fish symbiosis. Each of the eight chapters of this book focuses on a different group of partners. The structure, physiology and anti-predatory strategies of each group are described to provide the necessary background for the understanding of their partnerships with fishes. The formation of the associations, the degree of partner specificity and its regulation, as well as the benefits and costs for the fishes and their associates, communication between partners and their possible co-evolution are discussed in each chapter. This is the first attempt to critically review in a single volume all associations of fishes with invertebrates based on the latest studies in these areas, together with studies published many years ago and little cited since then. Symbiosis in Fishes provides a huge wealth of information that will be of great use and interest to many life scientists including fish biologists, ecologists, ethologists, aquatic scientists, physiologists and evolutionary biologists. It is hoped that the contents of the book will stimulate many to further research, to fill in the gaps in our knowledge in this fascinating and important subject. Libraries in all universities and research establishments where biological sciences are studied and taught should have copies of this exciting book.

With the advent of computers, very large datasets have become routine. Standard statistical methods don’t have the power or flexibility to analyse these efficiently, and extract the required knowledge. An alternative approach is to summarize a large dataset in such a way that the resulting summary dataset is of a manageable size and yet retains as much of the knowledge in the original dataset as possible. One consequence of this is that the data may no longer be formatted as single values, but be represented by lists, intervals, distributions, etc. The summarized data have their own internal structure, which must be taken into account in any analysis. This text presents a unified account of symbolic data, how they arise, and how they are structured. The reader is introduced to symbolic analytic methods described in the consistent statistical framework required to carry out such a summary and subsequent analysis. Presents a detailed overview of the methods and applications of symbolic data analysis. Includes numerous real examples, taken from a variety of application areas, ranging from health and social sciences, to economics and computing. Features exercises at the end of each chapter, enabling the reader to develop their understanding of the theory.

Petri Nets were defined for the study of discrete events systems and later extended for many purposes including dependability assessment. In our knowledge, no book deals specifically with the use of different type of PN to dependability. We propose in addition to bring a focus on the adequacy of Petri net types to the study of various problems related to dependability such as risk analysis and probabilistic assessment. In the first part, the basic models of PN and some useful extensions are briefly recalled. In the second part, the PN are used as a formal model to describe the evolution process of critical system in the frame of an ontological approach. The third part focuses on the stochastic Petri Nets (SPN) and their use in dependability assessment. Different formal models of SPN are formally presented (semantics, evolution rules…) and their equivalence with the corresponding class of Markov processes to get an analytical assessment of dependability. Simplification methods are proposed in order to reduce the size of analytical model and to make it more calculable. The introduction of some concepts specific to high level PN allows too the consideration of complex systems. Few applications in the field of the instrumentation and control (l&C) systems, safety integrated systems (SIS) emphasize the benefits of SPN for dependability assessment.

Una noche de verano mi abuelo viendo lo ocioso que estaba me invita a subir al desv?n para descubrir el mejor de los regalos. Y aunque no se encontraba en el desv?n, si que fue el mejor regalo de mi vida, y tambi?n creo que puede ser el tuyo. ?An?mate a descubrirlo!

VALORES IMPL?CITOS: A trav?s de esta historia se intenta transmitir que, aunque vivamos en la ?poca de Internet, es importante dar valor a la experiencia de los mayores y a la transmisi?n oral. Y aunque tengamos que convivir con el consumismo, debemos tambi?n saber valorar lo inmaterial. Adem?s, da una llamada de atenci?n a todos esos ni?os y j?venes que creen que la vida es solo lo que pasa a trav?s de sus tel?fonos m?viles, para que no se olviden de levantar la vista de vez en cuando y que exploren, vivan y sientan; porque tenemos la inmensa suerte de habitar el planeta m?s maravilloso y extraordinario que nunca podamos llegar a imaginar, y hemos de concienciarnos de la importancia de cuidarlo, pues de ello depende la vida de la humanidad y de todas las especies que lo habitan.
