This book describes the modelling and optimisation of vibration
reduction systems in an integrated fashion using nonlinear
equations of motion. It proposes an effective optimisation method
for determining the basic characteristics of the non-linear
visco-elastic elements used in passive vibration reduction systems.
In the case of semi-active and active vibration isolators, a design
process of the advanced control systems is proposed that makes
possible to optimise the controller settings relatively to the
selected vibro-isolation criteria. The approach developed here is
subsequently tested by means of experimental investigations
conducted on various sample vibration reduction systems: passive,
semi-active and active. The book presents a biomechanical modelling
approach that allows users to select the properties of
vibro-isolation systems for different types of oscillation and
different optimisation criteria - and can significantly reduce the
harmful vibrations that can affect the human body in the process.
Further, the book equips readers to evaluate the viscoelastic
characteristics of passive systems and design control systems for
semi-active and active systems. Modelling and Control Design of
Vibration Reduction Systems offers a valuable guide for researchers
and practitioners alike. It also provides students and academics
with systematic information on the procedures to be followed in the
design process for semi-active or active vibration reduction
systems.
Henning Meyer analysiert Ursachen fur die Entstehung von
Altersarbeitslosigkeit und weist nach, dass die Einfuhrung neuer
Technologien nur dann eine positive Wirkung auf den Arbeitsmarkt
hat, wenn der Faktor Humankapital dieser Entwicklung angepasst
wird."
For some politicians and commentators, Britain is always destined
to be the 'odd man out' in the European Union, with a history and
set of political attitudes which must always pit the United
Kingdom's interests against those of its neighbours. For others,
such claims of British exceptionalism are at best much exaggerated,
and to the extent this exceptionalism exists it arises largely from
subjective rather than objective factors. This collection of essays
reviews British attitudes towards a number of current European
issues. It does not attempt finally to decide the controversy about
British exceptionalism, but rather to provide material for a more
informed debate on this complex subject.
This edition consists of the core contributions to the first volume
of "Social Europe" journal plus new material exclusively published
in this book.
