Robert Red is an aspiring writer. Cynical and disillusioned with life, he lives in Vestavia Hills, a small town in Alabama. Robert is writing the novel that will consecrate him to fame and we can imagine his shock when leafing through the novel of an unknown author, Imogen Fry, he discovers that the pages are identical to his. However, at the same time, what role has the character of the Protestant pastor Johnathan Abblepot, who lived 150 years before in Vestavia Hills? And Elisabeth, his wife? And won't the mystery that unfolds in the town and in the woods that surround it be too much for the young detective Abbot? Perhaps, in one way or another, only Imogen Fry will be able to provide an answer.
The book presents the state of the art of nonlocal modeling and discretization and provides a practical introduction to nonlocal modeling for readers who are not familiar with such models. These models have recently become a viable alternative to classical partial differential equations when the latter are unable to capture effects such as discontinuities and multiscale behavior in a system of interest. Because of their integral nature, nonlocal operators allow for the relaxation of regularity requirements on the solution and thus allow for the capture of multiscale effects, the result of which is their successful use in many scientific and engineering applications. The book also provides a thorough analysis and numerical treatment of nonstandard nonlocal models, focusing on both well-known and nonstandard interaction neighborhoods. In addition, the book delivers an extensive practical treatment of the implementation of discretization strategies via finite element methods. Numerous figures are provided as concrete examples to illustrate both the analytic and computational results. Nonlocal Integral Equation Continuum Models: Nonstandard Interaction Neighborhoods and Finite Element Discretizations is intended for mathematical and application researchers interested in alternatives to using partial differential equation models that better describe the phenomena they are interested in. The book will also be of use to computational scientists and engineers who need to make sense of how to use available software, improve existing software, or develop new software tailored to their application interests.
Mathematical and numerical modelling of the human cardiovascular system has attracted remarkable research interest due to its intrinsic mathematical difficulty and the increasing impact of cardiovascular diseases worldwide. This book addresses the two principal components of the cardiovascular system: arterial circulation and heart function. It systematically describes all aspects of the problem, stating the basic physical principles, analysing the associated mathematical models that comprise PDE and ODE systems, reviewing sound and efficient numerical methods for their approximation, and simulating both benchmark problems and clinically inspired problems. Mathematical modelling itself imposes tremendous challenges, due to the amazing complexity of the cardiovascular system and the need for computational methods that are stable, reliable and efficient. The final part is devoted to control and inverse problems, including parameter estimation, uncertainty quantification and the development of reduced-order models that are important when solving problems with high complexity, which would otherwise be out of reach.
Throughput in manual order picking systems with narrow aisles suffers from congestion as pickers cannot pass each other. Only few models incorporate congestion but they have very strict assumptions. In this work, queueing theory is used to analyze systems with traversal routing as well as different storage policies. The models are able to estimate throughput for many alternative designs in a relatively short amount of time. New guidelines for narrow--aisle order picking systems are introduced.
Tender Is the Night" and F. Scott Fitzgerald's Sentimental Identities is a major examination of Fitzgerald's 1934 masterpiece as the clearest exemplar of Fitzgerald's sentimentalism, a mode that shaped his distinctive blend of romance and realism throughout his career.
Heterogeneous Catalysis in Sustainable Synthesis is a practical guide to the use of solid catalysts in synthetic chemistry that focuses on environmentally benign applications. Collating essential information on solid catalysts into a single volume, it reveals how the efficient use of heterogeneous catalysts in synthetic chemistry can support sustainable applications. Beginning with a review of the fundamentals of heterogeneous catalytic synthesis, the book then explores the basic concepts of heterogeneous catalytic reactions from adsorption to catalyst poisons, the use of non-traditional activation methods, recommended solvents, the major types of both metal and non-metal solid catalysts, and applications of these catalysts in sustainable synthesis. Based on the extensive experience of its expert author, this book aims to encourage and support synthetic chemists in using solid catalysts in their own work, while also highlighting the important link between heterogeneous catalysis and sustainability to all those interested. - Combines foundational knowledge with a focus on practical applications - Organizes information by reaction type, allowing readers to easily find examples of how to carry out specific reaction types with solid catalysts - Highlights emerging areas such as nanoparticle catalysis and metal-organic framework (MOF) based catalysts
Green chemistry has progressed from being a driver for change in the chemical and allied industries to being a critical part of chemical education at all levels. The future chemist must be able to practice their trade in the light of increasing concerns about waste and resources, the safety of chemicals in consumer products, and increasingly restrictive legislation. While there are green chemistry educational resources available including lectures and experiments as well as numerous books on green chemistry and major green chemical technologies, there is no “green equivalent” of a standard organic chemistry textbook Systematically covering a variety of well-known reactions that commonly feature in standard organic textbooks this book supplements and supports the standard organic chemistry texts. It highlights the main sustainability issues of classical and contemporary organic transformations and critically evaluates them within a metric of established Green Chemistry Principles noting where additional efforts are needed to improve their environmental footprint. Written by a team of expert authors with a multinational advisory board, this book is a fantastic resource for advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students worldwide.
This book is the first investigation of the relationship between Palmyra and its surrounding territory from the Roman to the early Islamic period since the 1930s. It discusses the agricultural potential of the hinterland, its role in the food supply of the city, and the interaction with the nomadic networks on the Syrian dry steppe.
Litigation Services Handbook, Fourth Edition is referred to as the litigation bible. Its nearly 50 chapters read like a who's who in law and accounting. The handbook includes all aspects of litigation services, including current environments, the process itself, a wealth of cases, how to prove damages, and practical considerations of court appearances. The new edition has a heavy focus on fraud investigations and complying with Sarbanes-Oxley requirements.

The book content is about seeing the relationship between the narrow way and birth canal and to understand why Jesus said it is difficult and only a few people have found it. Every existing thingmen and animalsmade their entrance into the world through the birth canal, an exit into Gods kingdom must absolutely require a rebirth. The rebirth requires passing through a womb-like environment. In relation to the birth canal, infant passage through it only allows one at a time, even though there could be a twin or triplets in the womb. As the womb is necessary for the infants preparation to make entrance into the world, so is being born again necessary for the adult believer, who must be prepared to exit into Gods kingdom. The believers age makes no difference. Neither does how long a person has been born again make any difference. This preparation to enter Gods kingdom is what the author calls a 360 U-turn.
