This book reviews the most common state-of-the art methods for
substructuring and model reduction and presents a framework that
encompasses most method, highlighting their similarities and
differences. For example, popular methods such as Component Mode
Synthesis, Hurty/Craig-Bampton, and the Rubin methods, which are
popular within finite element software, are reviewed. Similarly,
experimental-to-analytical substructuring methods such as
impedance/frequency response based substructuring, modal
substructuring and the transmission simulator method are presented.
The overarching mathematical concepts are reviewed, as well as
practical details needed to implement the methods. Various examples
are presented to elucidate the methods, ranging from academic
examples such as spring-mass systems, which serve to clarify the
concepts, to real industrial case studies involving automotive and
aerospace structures. The wealth of examples presented reveal both
the potential and limitations of the methods.

An insider's eight-decade overview of South India's 20th century
classical music culture. This book offers an account of Carnatic
music culture drawing on the knowledge of T. Sankaran, a musician
raised in an illustrious non-Brahmin devadasi family, and his long
affiliation with cultural institutions including All India Radio
(AIR) and the Tamil Isai Sangam (Tamil Music Academy). Sankaran
examines the cultural and social matrix in which Carnatic music was
cultivated and consumed in mid-twentieth century India, including
the ways that musicians negotiated caste politics and the double
standard for male and female musicians. The memoir provides insight
into the way AIR worked as a modern, bureaucratic institution, and
how the opening of government music colleges interacted with caste
politics and the shifted womens' participation in public
performance. The book is polyvocal, as Sankaran's writing is
interwoven with passages from Daniel Neuman's book The Life of
Music in North India, which inspired Sankaran's project, as well as
transcripts from interviews with Sankaran by Matthew Allen.
Includes rare archival photos.
Spirituality—our relationship with the sacred—is
expressed through our beliefs, practices, emotions, values, and
relationships. Spirituality can play a vital role in understanding
the problems clients face and the solutions they seek in
psychotherapy. This volume brings together top scholars
who show how therapists can ethically and competently
integrate spiritual perspectives and interventions into their
practices and thereby more effectively treat clients from
diverse religious, spiritual, racial, and cultural backgrounds. The
chapters present research, clinical guidance, and case studies
representing a wide variety of approaches and settings, including
community mental health centers, private practice offices,
hospitals and medical clinics, universities, and prisons. Given the
important role that spirituality plays in many people’s lives,
this book will help practitioners bring attention, sensitivity, and
evidence-based knowledge about the spiritual dimension into their
psychotherapy practice.
Since 1926, Congress has enacted three major laws that govern
labour-management relations for private sector and federal
employees. An issue for Congress is the effect of these laws on
employers, workers, and the nation's economy. The Bureau of Labor
Statistics estimates that, nationwide, 9.2 million employees are
represented by unions. In the 112th Congress alone, more than 30
bills have been introduced to amend federal labour relations
statutes. The proposals range from making union recognition without
a secret ballot election illegal to further modifying run-off
election procedures. This legislative activity, and the significant
number of employees affected by federal labour relations laws,
illustrate the current relevance of labour relations issues to
legislators and their constituents. The three major labour
relations statutes in the U.S. are the Railway Labor Act, the
National Labor Relations Act, and the Federal Service
Labour-Management Relations Statute. Each law governs a distinct
population of the U.S. workforce. This book provides a brief
history and overview of the aims of each of these statutes and
discusses key statutory provisions for each statute.
