Guidelines for Applying Cohesive Models to the Damage Behaviour of Engineering Materials and Structures
by Karl-Heinz Schwalbe Ingo Scheider Alfred CornecThis brief provides guidance for the application of cohesive models to determine damage and fracture in materials and structural components. This can be done for configurations with or without a pre-existing crack. Although the brief addresses structural behaviour, the methods described herein may also be applied to any deformation induced material damage and failure, e.g. those occurring during manufacturing processes. The methods described are applicable to the behaviour of ductile metallic materials and structural components made thereof. Hints are also given for applying the cohesive model to other materials.
Gut gepackt – Kein Bit zu viel: Kompression digitaler Daten verständlich erklärt (essentials)
by Olaf ManzBei der heutigen Datenflut, die auf Speichermedien und im Internet kursiert, ist die Kompression digitaler Daten nach wie vor ein immens wichtiger Aspekt bei Datenübertragung und -speicherung. Dieses essential erläutert ohne theoretischen Überbau und mit elementaren mathematischen und informatischen Methoden die wichtigsten Kompressionsverfahren, so unter anderem die Entropiecodierungen von Shannon-Fano und von Huffman, sowie die Wörterbuchcodierungen der Lempel-Ziv-Familie. Ausführlich eingegangen wird auch auf Irrelevanzreduktion und die Quantisierung bei optischen und akustischen Signalen, die die Unzulänglichkeiten des menschlichen Auges und Ohres zur Datenkompression ausnutzen. Illustriert wird das Ganze anhand gängiger Praxisanwendungen aus dem alltäglichen Umfeld. Die Aufbereitung erlaubt den Einsatz beispielsweise in Arbeitsgruppen an MINT-Schulen, bei Einführungskursen an Hochschulen und ist auch für interessierte Laien geeignet.
Guts of Surfaces and the Colored Jones Polynomial
by David Futer Efstratia Kalfagianni Jessica PurcellThis monograph derives direct and concrete relations between colored Jones polynomials and the topology of incompressible spanning surfaces in knot and link complements. Under mild diagrammatic hypotheses, we prove that the growth of the degree of the colored Jones polynomials is a boundary slope of an essential surface in the knot complement. We show that certain coefficients of the polynomial measure how far this surface is from being a fiber for the knot; in particular, the surface is a fiber if and only if a particular coefficient vanishes. We also relate hyperbolic volume to colored Jones polynomials. Our method is to generalize the checkerboard decompositions of alternating knots. Under mild diagrammatic hypotheses, we show that these surfaces are essential, and obtain an ideal polyhedral decomposition of their complement. We use normal surface theory to relate the pieces of the JSJ decomposition of the complement to the combinatorics of certain surface spines (state graphs). Since state graphs have previously appeared in the study of Jones polynomials, our method bridges the gap between quantum and geometric knot invariants.
Gödel's Proof
by Douglas R. Hofstadter Ernest Nagel James R NewmanAn accessible explanation of Kurt Gödel&’s groundbreaking work in mathematical logic: &“An excellent nontechnical account.&” —Bulletin of the American Mathematical Society In 1931 Kurt Gödel published his fundamental paper, &“On Formally Undecidable Propositions of Principia Mathematica and Related Systems.&” This revolutionary paper challenged certain basic assumptions underlying much research in mathematics and logic. Gödel received public recognition of his work in 1951 when he received the first Albert Einstein Award for achievement in the natural sciences—perhaps the highest award of its kind in the United States. The award committee described his work in mathematical logic as &“one of the greatest contributions to the sciences in recent times.&” However, few mathematicians of the time were equipped to understand the young scholar&’s complex proof. Ernest Nagel and James Newman provide a readable and accessible explanation to both scholars and non-specialists of the main ideas and broad implications of Gödel's discovery. It offers every educated person with a taste for logic and philosophy the chance to understand a previously difficult and inaccessible subject. New York University Press is proud to publish this special edition of one of its bestselling books. With a new foreword by Douglas R. Hofstadter, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Gödel, Escher, Bach, who also updated the text, this book will be of interest to students, scholars, and professionals in the fields of mathematics, computer science, logic and philosophy, and science.
Gödel's Theorem: An Incomplete Guide to Its Use and Abuse
by Torkel Franzén"Among the many expositions of Gödel's incompleteness theorems written for non-specialists, this book stands apart. With exceptional clarity, Franzén gives careful, non-technical explanations both of what those theorems say and, more importantly, what they do not. No other book aims, as his does, to address in detail the misunderstandings and abuses of the incompleteness theorems that are so rife in popular discussions of their significance. As an antidote to the many spurious appeals to incompleteness in theological, anti-mechanist and post-modernist debates, it is a valuable addition to the literature." --- John W. Dawson, author of Logical Dilemmas: The Life and Work of Kurt Gödel

HIV/AIDS in South Africa 25 Years On
by Leslie Swartz Seth C. Kalichman Poul Rohleder E. Cameron Leickness Chisamu SimbayiMuch has happened since the first appearance of AIDS in 1981: it has been identified, studied, and occasionally denied. The virus has shifted host populations and spread globally. Medicine, the social sciences, and world governments have joined forces to combat and prevent the disease. And South Africa has emerged as ground zero for the pandemic. The editors of HIV/AIDS in South Africa 25 Years On present the South African crisis as a template for addressing the myriad issues surrounding the epidemic worldwide, as the book brings together a widely scattered body of literature, analyzes psychosocial and sexual aspects contributing to HIV transmission and prevention, and delves into complex intersections of race, gender, class, and politics. Including largely overlooked populations and issues (e.g., prisoners, persons with disabilities, stigma), as well as challenges shaping future research and policy, the contributors approach their topics with rare depth, meticulous research, carefully drawn conclusions, and profound compassion. Among the topics covered: The relationship between HIV and poverty, starting from the question, "Which is the determinant and which is the consequence?"Epidemiology of HIV among women and men: concepts of femininity and masculinity, and gender inequities as they affect HIV risk; gender-specific prevention and intervention strategies. The impact of AIDS on infants and young children: risk and protective factors; care of children by HIV-positive mothers; HIV-infected children.Current prevention and treatment projects, including local-level responses, community-based work, and VCT (voluntary counseling and testing) programs.New directions: promoting circumcision, vaccine trials, "positive prevention."South Africa's history of AIDS denialism.The urgent lessons in this book apply both globally and locally, making HIV/AIDS in South Africa 25 Years On uniquely instructive and useful for professionals working in HIV/AIDS and global public health.
