Rate-Independent Systems

by Alexander Mielke Tomáš Roubíček

This monograph provides both an introduction to and a thorough exposition of the theory of rate-independent systems, which the authors have been working on with a lot of collaborators over 15 years. The focus is mostly on fully rate-independent systems, first on an abstract level either with or even without a linear structure, discussing various concepts of solutions with full mathematical rigor. Then, usefulness of the abstract concepts is demonstrated on the level of various applications primarily in continuum mechanics of solids, including suitable approximation strategies with guaranteed numerical stability and convergence. Particular applications concern inelastic processes such as plasticity, damage, phase transformations, or adhesive-type contacts both at small strains and at finite strains. A few other physical systems, e. g. magnetic or ferroelectric materials, and couplings to rate-dependent thermodynamic models are considered as well. Selected applications are accompanied by numerical simulations illustrating both the models and the efficiency of computational algorithms. In this book, the mathematical framework for a rigorous mathematical treatment of "rate-independent systems" is presented in a comprehensive form for the first time. Researchers and graduate students in applied mathematics, engineering, and computational physics will find this timely and well written book useful.

Ratgeber für Arbeitnehmererfinder: Rechte und Pflichten des erfinderischen Arbeitnehmers

by Thomas Heinz Meitinger

Ungefähr 80% der Erfindungen in Deutschland stammen von Arbeitnehmern. Für diese Gruppe von Erfindern ist das Gesetz über Arbeitnehmererfindungen einschlägig. Das Gesetz klärt die Kollision des Patentgesetzes mit dem Arbeitsrecht. Das Patentgesetz bestimmt, dass der Erfinder der alleinige Eigentümer seiner Erfindung ist. Im Gegensatz dazu ordnet das Arbeitsrecht ein Arbeitsergebnis, also auch eine Erfindung eines Arbeitnehmers, dem Eigentum des Arbeitgebers zu. Der erfinderische Arbeitnehmer, der zumeist eine technische Tätigkeit ausübt, sieht sich unvermittelt mit rechtlichen Fragestellungen konfrontiert. Sein Gegenüber ist ein Patentanwalt, der ein Angestellter seines Unternehmens ist oder der von seinem Unternehmen beauftragt wurde. Der „Gegenspieler“ des erfinderischen Arbeitnehmers ist daher juristisch versiert. Waffengleichheit im Gespräch des erfinderischen Arbeitnehmers mit den Vertretern des Arbeitgebers besteht nicht. Dieses Fachbuch gibt dem Arbeitnehmer das rechtliche Know-How, um seine Interessen erfolgreich zu verfolgen. Der Arbeitgeber wird es in aller Regel begrüßen, dass sein Arbeitnehmer Sachkompetenz erwirbt. Hierdurch wird zumeist eine schnelle Einigung der Parteien ermöglicht und dadurch der Arbeitsfrieden bewahrt.

Rating Law and Valuation

by Frances A.S. Plimmer

Following the introduction of the uniform business rate in 1990, local property taxation changed dramatically, whilst retaining many of its historical and familiar characteristics. Rating Law and Valuation details the existing, non-domestic rating system from the principles of rate liability and the definition of hereditament, the rateable value, to the procedure for compiling and altering the rating lists.The book also discusses how the methods of valuation are used by rating valuers to produce rateable values for the more common property types. The text concludes with a similar treatment of Council Tax which is levied on domestic property.Rating Law and Valuation is written primarily for those studying property valuation as part of their course, and is an indispensible reference book for those taking professional courses of The Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS), Incorporated Society of Valuers and Auctioneers (ISVA), and Institute of Revenue and Rating Valuation (IRRV). It is also a useful resource for practitioners who are required to deal with rating law and valuation but who do not do so on a regular basis.

Rational Design of Nanostructured Polymer Electrolytes and Solid–Liquid Interphases for Lithium Batteries (Springer Theses)

by Snehashis Choudhury

This thesis makes significant advances in the design of electrolytes and interfaces in electrochemical cells that utilize reactive metals as anodes. Such cells are of contemporary interest because they offer substantially higher charge storage capacity than state-of-the-art lithium-ion battery technology. Batteries based on metallic anodes are currently considered impractical and unsafe because recharge of the anode causes physical and chemical instabilities that produce dendritic deposition of the metal leading to catastrophic failure via thermal runaway. This thesis utilizes a combination of chemical synthesis, physical & electrochemical analysis, and materials theory to investigate structure, ion transport properties, and electrochemical behaviors of hybrid electrolytes and interfacial phases designed to prevent such instabilities. In particular, it demonstrates that relatively low-modulus electrolytes composed of cross-linked networks of polymer-grafted nanoparticles stabilize electrodeposition of reactive metals by multiple processes, including screening electrode electrolyte interactions at electrochemical interfaces and by regulating ion transport in tortuous nanopores. This discovery is significant because it overturns a longstanding perception in the field of nanoparticle-polymer hybrid electrolytes that only solid electrolytes with mechanical modulus higher than that of the metal electrode are able to stabilize electrodeposition of reactive metals.

Rational Fog: Science And Technology In Modern War

by M. Susan Lindee

A thought-provoking examination of the intersections of knowledge and violence, and the quandaries and costs of modern, technoscientific warfare.Science and violence converge in modern warfare. While the finest minds of the twentieth century have improved human life, they have also produced human injury. They engineered radar, developed electronic computers, and helped mass produce penicillin all in the context of military mobilization. Scientists also developed chemical weapons, atomic bombs, and psychological warfare strategies.Rational Fog explores the quandary of scientific and technological productivity in an era of perpetual war. Science is, at its foundation, an international endeavor oriented toward advancing human welfare. At the same time, it has been nationalistic and militaristic in times of crisis and conflict. As our weapons have become more powerful, scientists have struggled to reconcile these tensions, engaging in heated debates over the problems inherent in exploiting science for military purposes. M. Susan Lindee examines this interplay between science and state violence and takes stock of researchers’ efforts to respond. Many scientists who wanted to distance their work from killing have found it difficult and have succumbed to the exigencies of war. Indeed, Lindee notes that scientists who otherwise oppose violence have sometimes been swept up in the spirit of militarism when war breaks out.From the first uses of the gun to the mass production of DDT and the twenty-first-century battlefield of the mind, the science of war has achieved remarkable things at great human cost. Rational Fog reminds us that, for scientists and for us all, moral costs sometimes mount alongside technological and scientific advances.
