This book documents improvements in energy efficiency in U.S. buildings over 15 years. The multi-disciplinary team of experts describes options for maintaining these improvements.
This book systematically studies upwind methods for initial value problems for scalar conservation laws in one- and multidimensions. The mathematical theory of convergence theory and of a priori error estimates is presented in detail for structure (finite difference methods) as well as for unstructured grids (finite volume methods). Higher order ...
The findings in this report are based on a 1998 CWLA survey of organizations providing services and support to children formerly in foster care, and a meeting at the Annie E. Casey Foundation with youth formerly in foster care, representatives from community-based organizations, and representatives from Casey Family Services. This report ...
This textbook on structural geology aimed is primarily at the interpretation of high-grade gneiss terrains. The authors outline some of the more commonly seen structural features, suggest how they can be analyzed and interpreted, and explain which sampling techniques for petrology, geochemistry and geochronology will give the best results. The ...
Before he became a fan favorite in West Lafayette, Ind., before there was a contest to give him a nick-name, Brian Cardinal questioned whether he could make the transition to big-time collegiate basketball from a small-town community of 2,600. The Tolono native's success -- Cardinal now ranks among Purdue's all-time leaders -- is a testament to ...
This volume draws together the high level of expertise in the Insurance Committee of the International Bar Association's Section on Business Law. Non-lawyers, insurance and legal advisers and academics should be equally interested in this review and analysis of the critical issues - as brought to a head in several recent pollution disasters (such ...
This volume maps out the development perspectives of paralympic sport. The second edition of the International Paralympic Committee's VISTA Conference series comprised 60 contributions by international experts. Held at the German Sport University in Cologne, the event brought together scientists, coaches, athletes and administrators from over 40 ...
Scientific computing, which involves the analysis of complex systems in real applications with numerical simulations, is an important area of research in itself, in relation to theoretical investigations and physical experiments. In many cases, the underlying mathematical models consist of large systems of partial differential equations, which ...
The book concerns theoretical and numerical aspects of systems of conservation laws, which can be considered as a mathematical model for the flows of inviscid compressible fluids.Five leading specialists in this area give an overview of the recent results, which include: kinetic methods, non-classical shock waves, viscosity and relaxation methods, ...
Captures the curiosity that children naturally have about the world and the seasons. Engages through exciting adventures of the imagination -- from pumpkins that come alive to the dragons of stormy weather. Calms with reflective rhymes that look closely at the beauty of the changing year. Extensively and beautifully illustrated to complement the ...
This book presents the state-of-the-art in simulation on supercomputers. Leading researchers present results achieved on systems of the Stuttgart High Performance Computing Center (HLRS) for the year 2007. The reports cover all fields of computational science and engineering, ranging from CFD and computational physics and chemistry to computer ...
