The numerical, discrete element, Discontinuous Deformation Analysis
(DDA) method was developed by Dr. Gen-hua Shi while he was working
at the University of California, Berkeley, under the supervision of
Prof. Richard E. Goodman in the late 1980s. Two-dimensional DDA was
published in 1993 and three-dimensional DDA in 2001. Since its
publication DDA has been verified, validated and applied in
numerous studies worldwide and is now considered a powerful and
robust method to address both static and dynamic engineering
problems in discontinuous rock masses. In this book Yossef H.
Hatzor and Guowei Ma, co-chairs of the International Society for
Rock Mechanics (ISRM) Commission on DDA, join Dr. Shi in authoring
a monograph that presents the state of the art in DDA research. A
comprehensive discussion of DDA development since its publication
is provided in Chapter 1, followed by concise reviews of 2D and 3D
DDA in chapters 2 and 3. Procedures to select geological and
numerical input parameters for DDA are discussed in Chapter 4, and
DDA validation and verification is presented in Chapter 5.
Applications of DDA in underground and rock slope engineering
projects are discussed in chapters 6 and 7. In Chapter 8 the novel
contact theory recently developed by Dr. Shi is published in its
complete form, for the first time. This book is published within
the framework of the ISRM Book Series and is the contribution of
the ISRM DDA Commission to the international rock mechanics
community.

This book contains the refereed contributions from the 43rd annual
meeting of ISOTT. The annual meetings of ISOTT bring together
scientists from various fields (medicine, physiology, mathematics,
biology, chemistry, physics, engineering, etc.) in a unique
international forum. ISOTT conferences are a place where an
atmosphere of interaction is created, where many questions are
asked after each presentation and lively discussions occur at a
high scientific level. This vivid interaction is the main
motivation for members to participate and gain new ideas and
knowledge in the broad field of oxygen transport to tissue. The
proceedings include sessions covered various research topics
including Multi-Modal Imaging/Spectroscopy & Instrumentation;
Cancer Metabolism; Cellular Hypoxia and Mitochondrial Function;
Brain Oxygenation and Function; Other Organ Function and
Metabolism; Oxygen Transport in Sports, Diseases and Clinical Care;
Acupuncture, Meridians, and Primo Vascular System; EPR, MRS and
MRI.

This book provides valuable knowledge, useful fuzzy Petri nets
(FPN) models, and practical examples that can be considered by
mangers in supporting knowledge management of organizations to
increase and sustain their competitive advantages. In this book,
the authors proposed various improved FPN models to enhance the
modeling power and applicability of FPNs in knowledge
representation and reasoning. This book is useful for practitioners
and researchers working in the fields of knowledge management,
operation management, information science, industrial engineering,
and management science. It can also be used as a textbook for
postgraduate and senior undergraduate students.
