This authoritative handbook surveys the full breadth and depth of
SEA, bringing together a range of international perspectives and
insights on the theoretical, methodological and institutional
dimensions and practical issues of the field. It then subjects this
conventional wisdom to a critical reappraisal, looks at the vast
lessons of experience and offers new ideas and interpretations as
to where the field is going. The volume is organized into six major
sections, beginning with an introduction and overview of the
development of the field and a framework for evaluating SEA good
practice. Part I comprises a review of SEA frameworks in leading
countries (Australia, Canada, New Zealand and the USA), the
European Union and developing regions (Africa, Asia, Latin America
and Newly Independent States). Part II reviews SEA practice in
several major sectors (energy, minerals, transport, water,
development assistance and coastal zone management). Part III
addresses the linkages between SEA and other comparable tools such
as spatial planning and environmental management. Part IV probes
key cross-cutting issues in SEA, including how to address
cumulative and trans-boundary effects. Part V identifies ways and
means of SEA process and capacity development, focusing on how to
improve and upgrade the theory and practice of the field. Part VI
examines the shift from conventional SEA towards more integrative
approaches, drawing on experience and examples from a number of
countries. Published with IAIA
This book is the first volume about Artillery Regiment 1 of the 1st
Waffen-SS Division Leibstandarte Adolf Hitler (LAH). The artillery
batteries of the LAH during the whole of World War II faced some of
the hardest combat, and probably no other artillery unit was used
as often at critical spots on all fronts. While it had only three
batteries of light field howitzers during the French campaign, when
the full artillery regiment was set up in August 1940, it later
received heavier guns and 88mm flak. In April 1941, at Lake
Kastoria in Macedonia during a tremendous artillery battle, the
full regiment fired as a unit for the first time. During the
battles on the Russian Front the regiment's artillery equipment was
constantly upgraded. One of the artillery batteries was equipped
from 1943 with Wespe and Hummel self-propelled guns and later with
Nebelwerfer rocket launchers that gave the regiment its tremendous
firepower. Especially during the difficult defensive battles in the
winter of 1943-1944 in the Ukraine, every artillery piece - whether
a heavy field howitzer, or 15cm rocket launcher - was often used at
such close range that it was fired with barrels in a horizontal
position. The battery was later attached to the reconnaissance unit
in the vanguard of the LAH and experienced the hardest battles
while using Panzermeyer tactics that required rapid marches and
lightning fast deployment into firing positions. Nearly 300 photos,
most never before published, document the bitter battles of the LAH
artillery regiment.

This book explores the application of the open-source software
OpenGeoSys (OGS) for hydrological numerical simulations concerning
conservative and reactive transport modeling. It provides general
information on the hydrological and groundwater flow modeling of a
real case study and step-by-step model set-up with OGS, while also
highlighting related components such as the OGS Data Explorer. The
material is based on unpublished manuals and the results of a
collaborative project between China and Germany (SUSTAIN H2O).
Though the book is primarily intended for graduate students and
applied scientists who deal with hydrological modeling, it also
offers a valuable source of information for professional
geoscientists wishing to expand their knowledge of the numerical
modeling of hydrological processes including nitrate reactive
transport modeling. This book is the second in a series that
showcases further applications of computational modeling in
hydrological science.

Design Cybernetics: Navigating the New Design cybernetics offers a
way of looking at ourselves - curious, creative, and ethical humans
- as self-organising systems that negotiate their own goals in
open-ended explorations of the previously unknown. It is a theory
of and for epistemic practices (learning, designing, researching)
that is deeply committed to the autonomy of others and hence offers
no prescriptive methodology. Design cybernetics describes design
practice as inextricable from conversation - a way of enquiring,
developing shared understanding and reaching the new that harnesses
reliable control as well as error and serendipity. Recognising
circular causality, observer-dependency and non-determinability,
design cybernetics extends beyond tenets of scientific research
into the creative, ethical and aesthetic domain. From this
perspective, design is not an ill-conceived subset of scientific
research. Instead, scientific research emerges as a particularly
restricted subset of the broader human activity of design. This
volume offers a cross-section of design cybernetic theory and
practice with contributions ranging across architecture, interior
lighting studies, product design, embedded systems, design
pedagogy, design theory, social transformation design, research
epistemology, art and poetics, as well as theatre and acting.
Addressing designers, design educators and researchers interested
in a rigorous, practice-based epistemology, it establishes design
cybernetics as a foundational perspective of design research. "This
is a conceptually elegant, well structured, and comprehensive
presentation of design cybernetics. It fills a gap in the
literature of the field." Ken Friedman, Chair Professor, Tongji
University "This book offers a valuable and timely introduction to
second-order cybernetics as society grapples with complex issues
like climate change and rising inequality." Joichi Ito, Director of
the MIT Media Lab
Compared to modern standard, the Roman army of the imperial era was
surprisingly small. However, when assessed in terms of their
various tasks, they by far outstrip modern armies - acting not only
as an armed power of the state in external and internal conflicts,
but also carrying out functions which nowadays are performed by
police, local government, customs and tax authorities, as well as
constructing roads, ships, and buildings. With this opulent volume,
Thomas Fischer presents a comprehensive and unique exploration of
the Roman military of the imperial era. With over 600
illustrations, the costumes, weapons and equipment of the Roman
army are explored in detail using archaeological finds dating from
the late Republic to Late Antiquity, and from all over the Roman
Empire. The buildings and fortifications associated with the Roman
army are also discussed. By comparing conflicts, border security,
weaponry and artefacts, the development of the army through time is
traced. This work is intended for experts as well as to readers
with a general interest in Roman history. It is also a
treasure-trove for re-enactment groups, as it puts many common
perceptions of the weaponry, equipment and dress of the Roman army
to the test.

Many of the disadvantages of common oxidation reagents can be
circumvented by using enzyme- mediated oxidation reactions which
additionally offer highly diverse possibilities for novel function
introduction via chiral catalysis as well as for the modification
of existing functional groups. The enantiospecific enzymatic
1,2-dihydroxylation of sodium benzoate represents a powerful
methodology to obtain a very interesting synthon for organic
synthesis due to the fact that this transformation cannot be
achieved with classical oxidation reagents, in particular in
asymmetric mode. Application of the dihydroxylated sodium benzoate
to organic synthesis is outlined towards various hetero and carbo
bicyclic compounds obtained from intramolecular Diels-Alder
cyclization reactions which would lead to synthetic scaffolds as
structural analogs of the natural product penicillone A. Uvarirufol
A, a polyoxygenated cyclohexen natural product, which was first
isolated from Uvaria rufa, was attempted to be synthesized for the
first time using 1,2-dihydroxylated sodium benzoate as starting
material.
Cellular Biophysics is a quantitatively oriented basic physiology
text for senior undergraduate and graduate students in
bioengineering, biophysics, physiology, and neuroscience programs.
It will also serve as a major reference work for
biophysicists.Developed from the author's notes for a course that
he has taught at MIT for many years, these books provide a clear
and logical explanation of the foundations of cell biophysics,
teaching transport and the electrical properties of cells from a
combined biological, physical, and engineering viewpoint. Each
volume contains introductory chapters that motivate the material
and present it in a broad historical context. Important
experimental results and methods are described. Theories are
derived almost always from first principles so that students
develop an understanding of not only the predictions of the theory
but also its limitations. Theoretical results are compared
carefully with experimental findings and new results appear
throughout. There are many time-tested exercises and problems as
well as extensive lists of references. The volume on the electrical
properties of cells covers both electrically inexcitable cells as
well as electrically excitable cells such as neurons and muscle
cells. Included are chapters on lumped-parameter and
distributed-parameter models of cells, linear electric properties
of cells, the Hodgkin-Huxley model of the giant axon of the squid,
saltatory conduction in myelinated nerve fibers, and voltage-gated
ion channels.

text on this important topic develops it clearly and systematically
at the student level. It explains all the principal mechanisms by
which matter is transported across cellular membranes and describes
the homeostatic mechanisms that allow cells to maintain their
concentrations of solutes, their volume, and the potential across
the membrane. Chapters are organized by individual transport
mechanisms-diffusion, osmosis, coupled solute and solvent
transport, carrier-mediated transport, and ion transport (both
passive and active). A final chapter discusses the interplay of all
these mechanisms in cellular homeostasis.
How can manufacturers of capital goods succeed in service business
development? What are the potential network approaches for
manufacturing companies planning on extending their service
business? Over the last decade, the business environment of capital
goods manufacturers has changed dramatically. Few capital goods
manufacturers are able to outrun the competition with pure
product-related technologies and innovation alone. For this reason
they have added services to products as a way of responding to
eroding margins and the loss of strategic differentiation through
product innovation and technological superiority. Based on over
twelve years of research, this book provides academics and business
professionals with a thorough overview of the strategies available
for value creation through service business development. It
features case studies and covers a wide range of topics, including
emerging issues such as service business in small and medium-sized
companies, business innovation through services and the impact of
rapidly growing Asian markets.
