Sommario/riassunto

This book describes the key threads in the history of Sikhism, from the late 15th century to the present day. It examines the development of a distinct Sikh identity, and explores the meaning of Sikhism - its teachings, practices, rituals, and festivals. - ;The Sikh religion has a following of over 20 million people worldwide and is one of the largest religions in the world. However, events such as the verbal and physical attacks on Sikhs just after September 11 indicated that Sikhs were being mistaken for Muslims, and suggests that the raising of sufficient and appropriate awareness about Sik

Sommario/riassunto

Die mathematische Modellierung turbulenter Flammen ist auf Grund der intensiven Kopplung zwischen turbulenten Transportprozessen und der chemischen Kinetik eine herausfordernde Aufgabe. In dieser Arbeit wird ein Modell vorgestellt, das seinen Fokus auf der detaillierten Simulation der Turbulenz-Chemie-Interaktion hat. Das Modell soll dabei generisch sein in dem Sinne, als das es für verschiedene Verbrennungsregime anwendbar und prädiktiv ist.
