Draw Resonance (Fluid Mechanics and Its Applications #990)

by Mathias Bechert Benoit Scheid

This monograph presents many novel aspects of draw resonance, which remains an important field of research in the context of material processing. Draw resonance is used in film casting and fiber spinning at a large industrial scale for the production of polymer films, glass sheets and fibers.The book provides the most complete and coherent picture of draw resonance instability that is available so far in literature, treating all physical aspects together in a consistent and unprecedented way. The argumentation focuses on the physics underlying the observed phenomena, which comprise gravity, inertia, surface tension (for fibre spinning), necking (for film casting), viscoelasticity and thermal effects, all intricately affecting the threshold of the draw resonance. Thus, for the first time, the (de-)stabilizing mechanisms of draw resonance are unraveled, while many stability maps are provided for practical use.To complete the educational aspect, input files for the free software AUTO-07p are made available online, allowing readers to obtain most of the data provided in the monograph.An indispensable book for graduate students, researchers and professionals in material processing.

Nonlinear Robust Control and Optimisation of Microgrids (Springer Theses)

by Grigorios Michos

This book introduces significant innovations to the field of power systems control. It follows a control-theoretic approach to analyzing networked microgrids, providing a deep understanding of system-dynamical behavior and insights into different system parameters. It promotes rigorous control design methods to achieve stable closed-loop dynamics. The proposed methods offer additional benefits such as robustness to system parameter perturbations and constrained operation. The book adds successive levels of complexity in the control design process, enhancing system behavior with valuable properties. Starting with the design of a distributed control scheme for meshed microgrids that enforces both coupled and uncoupled constraints, the book moves on to: reduce conservatism of the control schemes and increase the closed-loop system&’s region of attraction using a geometric approach; limit system trajectories within the desired operational range by constructing control barrier functions and positive invariant sets; and facilitate the generalization of results to increase relevance beyond their origin in the control of power electronics. This book begins with an extensive introduction to relevant topics, making it accessible to recent graduates, professional engineers, and academic researchers.

Gandhi’s Popular Sovereignty of Truth: Devotional Democracy

by Michael Allen

This book offers a philosophical reconstruction of Gandhi&’s political thought as a form of devotional democracy in which the sovereign people speak the voice of truth as God&’s voice. Part One addresses Gandhi&’s relationship to the history of modern Western political thought, and key thinkers such as Hobbes, Locke, and Hegel. Part Two explores the concept of a Gandhian devotional democracy in relation to contemporary political thought and decidedly illiberal thinkers, such as Ivan Ilyin and Curtis Yarvin, as well as contemporary trends including populism, traditionalism, along with important developments like AI superintelligence and interspecies politics. The book aims not only to locate Gandhi in the historical context of modern and contemporary political philosophy but to also demonstrate the potential for his political thought to undergo sympathetic and constructive reinterpretation. It encourages readers to reassess and rethink the role of &‘soul force&’ as superior to state power as well as a nation&’s capacity to realize truth devotionally. Gandhi&’s Popular Sovereignty of Truth is essential reading for all scholars, researchers and advanced students of political philosophy especially those focussing on the thought of Mahatma Gandhi.

Politische Partizipation von Geflüchteten (Studien zur Migrations- und Integrationspolitik)

by Simon Schmidbauer

Politische Partizipation ist das Kernelement der Demokratie. Aufgrund der damit verbundenen Hürden können sich sozioökonomisch besser gestellte Gruppen der Gesellschaft häufiger und effektiver in den politischen Willensbildungsprozess einbringen als andere. Insbesondere im vergangenen Jahrzehnt gab es aber immer wieder politische Proteste von Geflüchteten. Sie stehen im Zentrum dieses Buchs, das der Frage nachgeht, wie sich dieses Engagement erklären lässt.Auf der Grundlage einer qualitativen Befragung von ehren- und hauptamtlich Tätigen aus Flüchtlingshilfe sowie Sprach- und Integrationskursen wird ein Theoriemodell entwickelt. Dieses erklärt politische Aktivität mittels Ressourcen, Involvierung und Netzwerken, die um migrations- und fluchtspezifische Faktoren ergänzt werden. Geflüchtete werden demnach nicht trotz, sondern gerade wegen ihrer prekären Lebenssituation politisch aktiv. Anhand einer quantitativen Befragung von Geflüchteten werden die Hypothesen des Modells einer statistischen Überprüfung zugeführt.

Complex Analytic Cycles II: The Cycle Space (Grundlehren der mathematischen Wissenschaften #363)

by Daniel Barlet Jón Magnússon

This book is the second volume of a work on complex analytic cycles and the results, stated without proof in the first volume, are proved here. It begins with the construction of the reduced complex space formed by all compact cycles of a given complex space. Following this construction the main subjects of the book are: • Fundamental class of a cycle and relative fundamental class of an analytic family of cycles • Intersection theory with parameters on complex manifolds and more generally on nearly smooth complex spaces • Holomorphic currents on reduced complex spaces • Chow varieties and cycle spaces of quasi-projective complex spaces • Natural morphism from the Douady space to the cycle space • Holomorphic convexity in cycle spaces and integration of $\bar{partial}$-cohomology classes on cycles • Strong Kählerianity of cycle spaces of Kähler manifolds • Numerous important applications of cycle space theory Preliminaries needed in the book in addition to the material of the first volume, for instance sheaf cohomology with support, are explained in detail, making this two-volume work quite self-contained. The French version of the present book was published in 2020 by the French Mathematical Society in the series Cours Spécialisés and during the translation process the authors have in many ways improved the original version.

Advances in Social Demography (The Springer Series on Demographic Methods and Population Analysis #59)

by Robert Schoen

This book offers an overview of the latest developments in contemporary population issues by examining the current unprecedented changes in fertility, family behavior, mortality, and migration. It explores new theoretical perspectives that seek to incorporate narratives of the future, demographic uncertainty, and determinants of unplanned pregnancy. The context of fertility is changing, and the new, important subjects of policy interventions, multi-partner fertility and complex parenthood are explored. Recent developments in assortative mating, partner choice, and relationship stability are examined in both national and international contexts, while further chapters analyze contemporary international migration. Methodological advances in modeling heterogeneity in mortality and extending period/cohort translation relationships are presented, and new analyses explore the implications of age patterns of fertility change. As such, this book provides up-to-date research spanning the entire field to illuminate contemporary developments, and will be of value to demographers, sociologists, economists, and all those interested in understanding demographic change.

Beyond the Shelley Circle: The Clairmont Family and Its Descendants (Routledge Studies in Nineteenth Century Literature)

by Sharon L. Joffe

Beyond the Shelley Circle: The Clairmont Family and Its Descendants will interest Shelley-circle researchers, life-writing scholars, and nineteenth-century historians alike. The Clairmont family’s connection to Mary Shelley began in 1801, when her father William Godwin married Mary Jane Vial. The combined family then included the future author of Frankenstein plus her half-sister Fanny, who had been left motherless by the death of Mary Wollstonecraft, and Vial’s two children, Charles and Claire Clairmont (a fifth child, William Godwin Junior, was born in 1803). In 1816, Mary would marry Percy Shelley, thereby creating the extended Wollstonecraft–Godwin–Shelley–Clairmont kinship circle. Despite the often-difficult relationship between Vial and her stepdaughters, the children in the blended family were close into adulthood. Beyond the Shelley Circle traces this history and that of the Clairmont family into the twenty-first century through various personal writings. It includes, in German transcription and English translation, with editorial notes, the previously unpublished journal of Ottilia Clairmont, the wife of Charles’s son, which describes her life in the Banat region in the 1860s. It uses this document and others for a fulsome discussion of life writing in the period, among women, and in literary circles. The book further connects the kinship coterie to other family studies, situating them in a vital tradition within literary studies.

Women’s Financial Capability and Financial Wellbeing: A Study on Community Based Organisations for Sustainable Development

by V. K. Parvathy Jyothi Kumar

This book investigates the impact of financial capability and decision‑making ability on the financial wellbeing of women associated with community based organisations (CBOs). In light of the evolving socio‑economic landscape in South Asia and the growing gender disparity in poverty, there is an urgent need to address these issues at the grassroots level to achieve sustainable development. CBOs play a crucial role by providing a platform for women to discuss shared challenges, develop potential solutions and create livelihood opportunities.Drawing on data from Asia’s largest women’s community network, this book examines how Kudumbashree, as a successful model, can serve as a guiding framework for other community networks across South Asia. It also investigates how demographic factors such as age, marital status, education, income and family size influence women’s financial capability. Furthermore, this book delves into the financial wellbeing of women and explores how addressing their needs can contribute to the attainment of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).By examining global initiatives aimed at empowering women economically, this book offers valuable insights for policymakers, financial social workers, scholars and organisations dedicated to advancing financial wellbeing for women and promoting sustainable development.

The Digital Environment and Small States in Europe: Challenges, Threats, and Opportunities (Small State Studies)

by Viktorija Car Marta Zorko

The Digital Environment and Small States in Europe delves into how the digital revolution intersects with global security dynamics and reshapes the geopolitical landscape. It sheds light on the geopolitical complexities inherent in the border regions of the European continent and proposes frameworks to better understand and engage with small state dynamics in international affairs.At the heart of this book is an examination of the transformative power of digitalization and virtualization, particularly pronounced in the context of small states. Traditionally, power was synonymous with territorial control, but in today’s world, influence extends into the virtual realm. Small states, despite their physical limitations, can leverage this virtual extension of territory to their advantage. However, realizing and strategically utilizing these advantages are essential for capitalizing on the opportunities presented. Conversely, small states lacking digital capabilities find themselves increasingly vulnerable in the virtual sphere, facing heightened security threats and challenges. Through a series of theoretical and case study-based chapters, this book offers insights into the strategies employed by small states to navigate these complexities and assert their influence on the global stage. Key themes explored include the impact of digitalization on geopolitical dynamics, the role of cybersecurity in safeguarding national interests, and the emergence of digital diplomacy as a tool for statecraft.The Digital Environment and Small States in Europe will be of great interest to scholars and students of international relations, geopolitics, and political science, as well as security, media, and communication studies. Additionally, policymakers and analysts involved in foreign policy and security affairs may find valuable insights in the book’s exploration of small state strategies and vulnerabilities.

A Forensic Approach to Political and State Violence: Uncertainty, Ambiguity and Risk (New Frontiers in Forensic Psychology)

by David Crighton

A Forensic Approach to Political and State Violence applies a forensic lens to the study of risk in relation to political and state violence.Divided into three parts, the book outlines the nature and function of political and state violence and the historic development of contributions from forensic practice. It then considers the distinction between political and state violence and the foundations for this. This is followed by a review of developments of current research and practice looking at future development and the ways in which forensic practice might more effectively contribute to risk reduction and management. The text will argue that the basis of much current forensic practice, in relation to political and state violence, is unduly limited and has failed to integrate relevant scientific research into practice. The role of market-led approaches to work in these areas will also be considered, in relation to the way this has influenced and distorted practice and delayed progress. Drawing on theories derived from psychology and other areas of research, the book considers how evidence might inform improvements, using the risks and uncertainties that surround politically motivated violence to illustrate this. Real cases of political and state violence are considered, with topics including military conflict, terrorism, use of torture and hostage taking to highlight current failings and weaknesses. Barriers to implementing better forensic practice in terms of both professional, economic and policy interests are also explored.It will be an essential read for all students or practitioners in the areas of forensic psychology, criminal justice or violence risk management.

Non-state Special Operations: Capabilities and Effects (Cass Military Studies)

by Ian Rice Craig Whiteside

This book examines how violent non-state actors (VNSAs) emulate and develop military special operation capabilities.Building on previous research on Islamic State special operations, the book develops a theoretical framework surrounding a typology of VNSA (militants, proxies, criminal/cults, and mercenaries) to explore variations of non-state special operations, with multiple cases for each category of actor. Understanding when and why VNSAs use special operations provides insights into the inner workings of such groups and how they campaign and also has implications for the proliferation of special operation forces around the globe and its influence on non-state behavior. This volume contributes to research on the recent trend of non-state actors surprising, and in some cases humiliating, their state opponents.This book will be of much interest to students of military and strategic studies, defense studies, and security studies.

Food in Nineteenth-Century British History: Volume Three: Mealtimes (Nineteenth-Century Science, Technology and Medicine: Sources and Documents)

by Ian Miller

A curious phenomenon occurred in British food writing from around the 1860s. Publishers began printing books dedicated to specific meals. Breakfast. Luncheons. Afternoon Tea. Dinners. Until this time, most cookbooks had been hefty tomes containing hundreds of pages of recipes, but the new recipe books were slimmer and more accessible, catering for a broader readership. The appearance of focused cookbooks reveals the growing influence of advanced printing technologies and rising literacy levels combined with changes in social life and class relations that coalesced around food, granting mealtimes great importance. The sources reprinted in this volume were produced in response to the changing social dynamics that accompanied industrialisation, urbanisation and socio-economic modernisation.

Aesthetics and the City (Routledge Studies in Urbanism and the City)

by Joe Blakey Amy Barron

Aesthetics and the City engages aesthetics to explore the role of the city in urban experience. Drawing on diverse theories and global case studies, this edited collection examines how aesthetics relates to how cities and urban spaces are perceived, organised, and transformed.This book celebrates and ponders the wide diversity of aesthetic approaches within urban studies, noting that the way aesthetics is understood impacts what can be understood about cities and the urban order more generally. In its most general sense, aesthetics refers to our sensuous relation to the world. It invariably figures in how we make sense of the city and ourselves—bound to how urban life is experienced imaginatively, materially, socially, culturally, and politically. In an era where scholars have expressed concern at epistemological city-centrism, aesthetics is proposed as a versatile concept through which the centrality of the city to urban thought can be assessed. The book also explores how aesthetics intersects with a range of tangential concepts including power, the political, art, and affect. Ultimately it makes the case that this diverse ensemble of approaches to aesthetics can enable scholars to understand the city and its enduring relevance to urban thought.This book focuses on the concepts of "aesthetics" and "the city" and will appeal to scholars and students in urban studies, human geography, planning, politics, and sociology.

The Consequences of Non-cooperation with the International Criminal Court: An Analysis Through the Lens of General International Law (International Criminal Justice Series #37)

by Melville Ludwig Jacobs

This book aims to provide a comprehensive analysis of how the International Criminal Court can be better equipped to handle instances of non-cooperation with its requests by States, specifically State Parties to the Rome Statute that have a concrete obligation to cooperate with the Court. The book suggests that non-cooperation is not handled in an effective manner at any stage of non-cooperation proceedings. This highlights the need for there to be more effective responses and remedies for handling the failure to cooperate, from the initial decision on non-cooperation by the ICC Pre-Trial Chamber's to the follow-up mechanisms developed by the institutional bodies tasked with addressing non-cooperation. Existing literature on non-cooperation appears to strictly look to the black letter of the Rome Statute to address and remedy the gaps in the Court's handling of non-cooperation matters. This book, however, intends to conduct a broad study, and will therefore look beyond the Rome Statute to search for effective remedies for responding to instances of non-cooperation, through relevant international peace and security. Specific focus will be placed on the Responsibility to Protect and the ILC's Articles on the Responsibility of States for Internationally Wrongful Acts. Responses to non-cooperation will also be analysed through its potential relationship with peremptory norms of general international law (jus cogens). This volume in the ICJ Series is especially relevant considering recent developments in international criminal law, including the continued inability of the ICC to effectively address non-cooperation in high-profile cases. Specifically tailored for legal academics, practitioners, and policymakers, this book seeks to bridge theoretical analyses with practical solutions, making it an important tool for those invested in the future of international criminal justice. Melville Jacobs is a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Palacký University Olomouc, Centre for International Humanitarian and Operational Law.

Im Käfig - Straßenfußball und Straßenkindheit in einem marginalisierten Quartier: Eine Streetwork-Ethnographie (Bildung und Sport #38)

by Rudolph Meyer

Der Straßenfußball im marginalisierten Quartier ist eher im Sinne eines Trendsports als Konglomerat aus Stilen und virtuosen Tricks zu begreifen, als im Sinne des vereinsorientierten Wettkampfsportes. Dabei werden tendenziell heteronormative und dominanzorientierte Männlichkeitsnormen (re)produziert. Die Kinder sehen sich vielgestaltigen Konflikten zum Beispiel mit älteren Kindern und Jugendlichen, Eltern oder Straßenszenen sowie Polizei und Ordnungsamt ausgesetzt. Die in diesem Buch dargestellten Spielformen, Normen und Konflikte erweitern den Blick der sportpädagogischen Kindheits- und Jugendforschung und geben zugleich Hinweise für die Gestaltung der Offenen Kinder- und Jugendarbeit.
