This book brings together multidisciplinary chapters written by leading authorities in the area. The book provides a thorough overview of progress in the field of applications of IR and NIR spectroscopy in Materials Science, Engineering and Technology.

This book shows the results of the work of researchers from different professional backgrounds, which evaluate the uses of photogrammetry, including issues of the data, processing, as well as the solutions developed for some surveying types that can be extended to many applications.

Written by international experts, this book provides the reader with the present knowledge and future research directions of diagnostic and therapeutic ultrasound and spectroscopy. Focused topics include Duplex ultrasound, transcranial color Duplex, MRA guided Doppler ultrasonography and near-infrared spectroscopy.

Here is a book that goes beyond risk management as it is today and tries to discuss what needs to be improved further. The book also offers some cases.

The book focuses on Fourier transform applications in electromagnetic field and microwave, medical applications, error control coding, methods for option pricing, and Helbert transform application. This book will provide the background, reference and incentive to encourage further research and results in these fields as well as provide tools for practical applications.

This book is a combination of number of great ideas, applications, case studies, and practical systems in the domain of Semantics. The current volume highlights the state-of-the-art application areas in the domain of Semantics.

This book is a nice blend of number of great ideas, theories, mathematical models, and practical systems in the domain of Semantics. The current volume is the first volume which highlights the advances in theories and mathematical models in the domain of Semantics.

This book tells the story of Abel's problem and his proof. The text contains a minimum of equations, so that the main lines of the argument should be accessible to people who are intrigued by ideas but feel uncomfortable with mathematical detail.

Anwendungsbezogene Darstellungen sind das Kennzeichen der Buchreihe "Bosch Fachinformation Automobil".
