Lasers are now an integral part of modern society, providing extraordinary opportunities for innovation in an ever-widening range of material processing and manufacturing applications. The study of laser material processing is a core element of many materials and manufacturing courses at undergraduate and postgraduate level. As a consequence, there is now a vast amount of research on the theory and application of lasers to be absorbed by students, industrial researchers, practising engineers and production managers. Written by an acknowledged expert in the field with over twenty years' experience in laser processing, John Ion distils cutting-edge information and research into a single key text. Essential for anyone studying or working with lasers, Laser Processing of Engineering Materials provides a clear explanation of the underlying principles, including physics, chemistry and materials science, along with a framework of available laser processes and their distinguishing features and variables. This book delivers the knowledge needed to understand and apply lasers to the processing of engineering materials, and is highly recommended as a valuable guide to this revolutionary manufacturing technology. * The first single volume text that treats this core engineering subject in a systematic manner * Covers the principles, practice and application of lasers in all contemporary industrial processes; packed with examples, materials data and analysis, and modelling techniques * Accompanied by extensive examination questions plus a companion website with instructor's solutions manual 533 $aElectronic reproduction.$bAmsterdam :$cElsevier Science & Technology,$d2007.$nMode of access: World Wide Web.$nSystem requirements: Web browser.$nTitle from title screen (viewed on Aug. 2, 2007).$nAccess may be restricted to users at subscribing institutions 650 0$aLasers$xIndustrial applications 650 6$aLasers$xApplications industrielles 655 7$aElectronic books.$2local 776 1 $cOriginal$z0750660791$z9780750660792$w(OCoLC)59719945 856 40$3Referex$uhttp://www.sciencedirect.com/science/book/9780750660792$zAn electronic book accessible through the World Wide Web; click for information 907 $a.b13653507$b07-04-22$c24-01-08 912 $a991003238339707536 996 $aLaser processing of engineering materials$9734305 997 $aUNISALENTO 998 $ale026$b24-01-08$cm$d@ $e-$feng$genk$h0$i0 LEADER 01509nam 2200385Ka 450 001 9910697779203321 005 20081028165710.0 035 $a(CKB)5470000002391178 035 $a(OCoLC)263996594 035 $a(EXLCZ)995470000002391178 100 $a20081028d2001 ua 0 101 0 $aeng 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aTechniques for estimating flood-frequency discharges for streams in Iowa$b[electronic resource] /$fby David A.

The very fact of its occurrence has been forcing scholars for more than sixty years to assess its impact on their disciplines. Educators whose work is represented in this volume ask their students to grapple with one of the grand horrors of the twentieth century and to accept the responsibility of building a more just, peaceful world (tikkun olam). They acknowledge that their task as teachers of the Holocaust is both imperative and impossible; they must "teach something that cannot be taught, " as one contributor puts it, and they recognize the formidable limits of language, thought, imagination, and comprehension that thwart and obscure the story they seek to tell. Yet they are united in their keen sense of pursuing an effort that is pivotal to our understanding of the past-and to whatever prospects we may have for a more decent and humane future. A "Holocaust course" refers to an instructional offering that may focus entirely on the Holocaust; may serve as a touchstone in a larger program devoted to genocide studies; or may constitute a unit within a wider curriculum, including art, literature, ethics, history, religious studies, jurisprudence, philosophy, theology, film studies, Jewish studies, German studies, composition, urban studies, or architecture. It may also constitute a main thread that runs through an interdisciplinary course. The first section of Testimony, Tensions, and Tikkun can be read as an injunction to teach and act in a manner consistent with a profound cautionary message: that there can be no tolerance for moral neutrality about the Holocaust, and that there is no subject in the humanities or social sciences where its shadow has not reached. The second section is devoted to the process and nature of students' learning. These chapters describe efforts to guide students through terrain that hides cognitive and emotional land mines. The authors examine their responsibility to foster students' personal connection with the events of the Holocaust, but in such a way that they not instill hopelessness about the future. The third and final section moves the subject of the Holocaust out of the classroom and into broader institutional settings-universities and community colleges and their surrounding communities, along with museums and memorial sites. For the educators represented here, teaching itself is testimony. The story of the Holocaust is one that the world will fail to master at its own peril. The editors of this volume, and many of its contributors, are members of the Pastora Goldner Holocaust Symposium. Led since its founding in 1996 by Leonard Grob and Henry F. Knight, the symposium's scholars--a group that is interfaith, international, interdisciplinary, and intergenerational--meet biennially in Oxfordshire, England. 410 0$aPastora Goldner series in post-Holocaust studies. 606 $aHolocaust, Jewish (1939-1945)$xStudy and teaching (Higher) 606 $aHolocaust, Jewish (1939-1945)$xStudy and teaching (Higher)$zUnited States 615 0$aHolocaust, Jewish (1939-1945)$xStudy and teaching (Higher) 615 0$aHolocaust, Jewish (1939-1945)$xStudy and teaching (Higher) 676 $a940.53/18071173 701 $aGoldenberg$b Myrna$01802352 701 $aMillen$b Rochelle L.$f1943-$01802353 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910969852403321 996 $aTestimony, tensions, and tikkun$94348012 997 $aUNINA LEADER 06202nam 22005775 450 001 9910961075203321 005 20250725082052.0 010 $a1-4612-0795-9 024 7 $a10.1007/978-1-4612-0795-5 035 $a(CKB)3400000000089272 035 $a(SSID)ssj0001297317 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11724812 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001297317 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)11362577 035 $a(PQKB)11024583 035 $a(DE-He213)978-1-4612-0795-5 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3073974 035 $a(PPN)238006492 035 $a(EXLCZ)993400000000089272 100 $a20121227d1995 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurnn|008mamaa 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 14$aThe Jackknife and Bootstrap /$fby Jun Shao, Dongsheng Tu 205 $a1st ed. 1995. 210 1$aNew York, NY :$cSpringer New York :$cImprint: Springer,$d1995. 215 $a1 online resource (XVII, 517 p.) 225 1 $aSpringer Series in Statistics,$x2197-568X 300 $aBibliographic Level Mode of Issuance: Monograph 311 08$a0-387-94515-6 311 08$a1-4612-6903-2 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 327 $a1.

The resampling methods replace theoreti­ cal derivations required in applying traditional methods (such as substitu­ tion and linearization) in statistical analysis by repeatedly resampling the original data and making inferences from the resamples. Because of the availability of inexpensive and fast computing, these computer-intensive methods have caught on very rapidly in recent years and are particularly appreciated by applied statisticians. The primary aims of this book are (1) to provide a systematic introduction to the theory of the jackknife, the bootstrap, and other resampling methods developed in the last twenty years; (2) to provide a guide for applied statisticians: practitioners often use (or misuse) the resampling methods in situations where no theoretical confirmation has been made; and (3) to stimulate the use of the jackknife and bootstrap and further devel­ opments of the resampling methods. The theoretical properties of the jackknife and bootstrap methods are studied in this book in an asymptotic framework. Theorems are illustrated by examples. Finite sample properties of the jackknife and bootstrap are mostly investigated by examples and/or empirical simulation studies. In addition to the theory for the jackknife and bootstrap methods in problems with independent and identically distributed (Li.d.) data, we try to cover, as much as we can, the applications of the jackknife and bootstrap in various complicated non-Li.d. data problems. 410 0$aSpringer Series in Statistics,$x2197-568X 606 $aMathematics 606 $aApplications of Mathematics 615 0$aMathematics. 615 14$aApplications of Mathematics. 676 $a519 700 $aShao$b Jun$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0351292 702 $aTu$b Dongsheng$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910961075203321 996 $aThe Jackknife and Bootstrap$94412636 997 $aUNINA
