Critical Reflections on Theoretical Perspectives -- Part 2. Critical Reflections on Policies and Practices. Section A: Insider Perspectives -- Section B: Academic Reflections."This book fills an important gap in the sport governance literature by engaging in critical reflection on the concept of 'good governance'. It examines the theoretical perspectives that lead to different conceptualisations of governance and, therefore, to different standards for institutional quality. It explores the different practical strategies that have been employed to achieve the implementation of good governance principles. The first part of the book aims to shed light on the complexity and nuances of good governance by examining theoretical perspectives including leadership, value, feminism, culture and systems. The second part of the book has a practical focus, concentrating on reform strategies, from compliance policies and codes of ethics to external reporting and integrity systems. Together, these studies shed important new light on how we define and understand governance, and on the limits and capabilities of different methods for inducing good governance. With higher ethical standards demanded in sport business and management than ever before, this book is important reading for all advanced students and researchers with an interest in sport governance and sport policy, and for all sport industry professionals looking to improve their professional practice"-- Provided by publisher.Routledge research in sport business and management.Good Governance in Sport Sports administrationArnout Geeraertaccountabilitycapacity buildingcomplianceconsultancycorruptiondemocratic processdiversityethical codesethicsFrank van Eekerenfeministgood governanceinclusionintegrityleadershiplegitimacynational governing bodiesnational sport organisationsorganizationspublic valuesreportingsocial exchangesocial identitysocial learningsport governancesport managementsport policytransparencySports administration.796.069Geeraert Arnoutedt786984Geeraert Arnout1987-Eekeren Frank vanNjHacINjHaclBOOK9910502674903321Good governance in sport3361126UNINA05218nam 22008775 450 991029976730332120220406231405.03-319-14756-010.1007/978-3-319-14756-7(CKB)3710000000355406(EBL)1974103(SSID)ssj0001452127(PQKBManifestationID)11789710(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001452127(PQKBWorkID)11487834(PQKB)10621694(DE-He213)978-3-319-14756-7(MiAaPQ)EBC1974103(PPN)184495377(EXLCZ)99371000000035540620150205d2015 u| 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrAdvanced methods in the fractional calculus of variations /by Agnieszka B.

Direct Methods in Fractional Calculus of Variations -- 6. Application to the Sturm-Liouville Problem -- 7. Conclusion -- Appendix - Two Convergence Lemmas -- Index.This brief presents a general unifying perspective on the fractional calculus. It brings together results of several recent approaches in generalizing the least action principle and the Euler–Lagrange equations to include fractional derivatives. The dependence of Lagrangians on generalized fractional operators as well as on classical derivatives is considered along with still more general problems in which integer-order integrals are replaced by fractional integrals. General theorems are obtained for several types of variational problems for which recent results developed in the literature can be obtained as special cases. In particular, the authors offer necessary optimality conditions of Euler–Lagrange type for the fundamental and isoperimetric problems, transversality conditions, and Noether symmetry theorems. The existence of solutions is demonstrated under Tonelli type conditions. The results are used to prove the existence of eigenvalues and corresponding orthogonal eigenfunctions of fractional Sturm–Liouville problems. Advanced Methods in the Fractional Calculus of Variations is a self-contained text which will be useful for graduate students wishing to learn about fractional-order systems. The detailed explanations will interest researchers with backgrounds in applied mathematics, control and optimization as well as in certain areas of physics and engineering.SpringerBriefs in Applied Sciences and Technology,2191-530XCalculus of variationsAutomatic controlPhysicsEconomicsMathematical modelsSystem theoryCalculus of Variations and Optimal Control; Optimizationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M26016Control and Systems Theoryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T19010Mathematical Methods in Physicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19013Economic Theory/Quantitative Economics/Mathematical Methodshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W29000Mathematical Modeling and Industrial Mathematicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M14068Systems Theory, Controlhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M13070Calculus of variations.Automatic control.Physics.Economics.Mathematical models.System theory.Calculus of Variations and Optimal Control; Optimization.Control and Systems Theory.Mathematical Methods in Physics.Economic Theory/Quantitative Economics/Mathematical Methods.Mathematical Modeling and Industrial Mathematics.Systems Theory, Control.003.3330330.0151510515.64519530.15629.8Malinowska Agnieszka Bauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut755557Odzijewicz Tatianaauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autTorres Delfim F.Mauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autBOOK9910299767303321Advanced Methods in the Fractional Calculus of Variations2546582UNINA04788nam 22006735 450 991067826370332120251008145106.0981-19-9932-510.1007/978-981-19-9932-1(MiAaPQ)EBC7209172(Au-PeEL)EBL7209172(CKB)26191945100041(DE-He213)978-981-19-9932-1(PPN)269097376(EXLCZ)992619194510004120230302d2023 u| 0engurcnu||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierAdvancements of Grey Systems Theory in Economics and Social Sciences /by Camelia Delcea, Liviu-Adrian Cotfas1st ed. 2023.Singapore :Springer Nature Singapore :Imprint: Springer,2023.1 online resource (340 pages)Series on Grey System,2731-4944Print version: Delcea, Camelia Advancements of Grey Systems Theory in Economics and Social Sciences Singapore : Springer,c2023 9789811999314 Includes bibliographical references and index.State of the art in Grey Systems Research in Economics and Social Sciences -- Grey Relational Analysis in Companies’ Diagnosis -- Grey Models for Decision-Making Problem -- Risk Assessment using Grey Systems Theory -- Suppliers Selection and Optimal Resources Allocation using Grey-based Models -- Combined Grey-based Methods in Logistics -- Behavioral Assessment using Grey and Hybrid Approaches -- Grey Social Media Analysis and Grey Natural Language Processing -- Grey Clustering in Economic Analysis -- Hybrid-Intelligent Methods in Economics and Social Sciences.This book focuses on the main advancements made in the economics and social sciences field through the use of grey systems theory.
