Sommario/riassunto |
|
Scholars have read the Alexandrian riots of 38 CE according to intertwined dichotomies. The Alexandrian Jews fought to keep their |

citizenship - or to acquire it; they evaded the payment of the poll-tax - or prevented any attempts to impose it on them; they safeguarded their identity against the Greeks - or against the Egyptians. Avoiding that pattern and building on the historical reconstruction of the experience of the Alexandrian Jewish community under the Ptolemies, this work submits that the riots were the legal and political consequence of an imperial adjudication against the Jews. Most of the Jews lost their residence never to recover it again. The Roman emperor, the Roman prefect of Egypt and the Alexandrian citizenry - all shared responsibilities according to their respective and expected roles. |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
This is the most systematic, comprehensive and up-to-date book on the theoretical analysis of piezoelectric devices. It is a natural continuation of the author's two previous books: ?An Introduction to the Theory of Piezoelectricity? (Springer, 2005) and ?The Mechanics of Piezoelectric Structures? (World Scientific, 2006). Based on the linear, nonlinear, three-dimensional and lower-dimensional structural theories of electromechanical materials, theoretical results are presented for devices such as piezoelectric resonators, acoustic wave sensors, and piezoelectric transducers. The book reflects the contribution to the field from Mindlin's school of applied mechanics researchers since World War II. |
