Sommario/riassunto

La rivista fornisce un mezzo per la rapida diffusione dei risultati della ricerca originale nelle dinamiche computazionali e non lineari teoriche e applicate. La rivista funge da forum per lo scambio di nuove idee e applicazioni nella dinamica dei sistemi multicorpo computazionali, rigidi e flessibili e in tutti gli aspetti (analitici, numerici e sperimentali) delle dinamiche associate ai sistemi non lineari. Lo scopo della rivista comprende tutti i problemi computazionali e non lineari che si verificano nei sistemi aeronautici, biologici, elettrici, meccanici, fisici e strutturali.

Sommario/riassunto

Handbook of Applied Dog Behaviour and Training, Volume two: Etiology and Assessment of Behaviour Problems is the definitive reference for dog trainers, behaviourists, breeders and veterinarians. Coupled with Volume one, this text provides theoretical and practical framework for understanding the development and treatment of dog behaviour problems.  Topics covered include Fear, anxiety and phobias, Separation-related problems, Hyperactivity, and Dominance, territorial, and fear-related aggression. The focus is to present and evaluate the relevant applied and scientific literature, and to hi
