Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware -In this work influence of the different forms of prompt fission neutron energy spectrums was discussed in the fission fragment center of mass system to the laboratory spectrum of neutrons in spontaneous fission of Californium-252 (Cf-252). It is shown that the Le Couteur spectrum which takes into account multiple neutron emission of neutrons in the center of mass system well describes the observed neutron energy spectrum when transformed to the laboratory system. The Le Couteur in laboratory spectrum, in addition to Watt spectrum, can be used for the representation of observed prompt neutron spectrum of Cf-252 spontaneous fission. 52 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -With this book I have two aims. The first is to demonstrate why classical humanism appears to be obsolete from a post-humanistic perspective, and the second is to illustrate the contribution made by mimetic theory to the comprehension of the subject. In the first part of the paper we shall see why the notion of identity proposed by classical humanism is entirely inadequate towards the comprehension of the reality of man, that is relational historicity. In the second part we shall see how René Girard's hypothesis is effective in terms of the hermeneutics of the subject and perfectly in tune with a post-humanist consideration of reality. 56 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Despite the long-term discussions about standardisation and adaptation of international advertising, problems of how to measure and evaluate the degree of advertising standardisation still exist. Most of the current approaches view this matter from the marketers' and companies' perspective. This study examines and investigates the degree of standardisation of advertising campaigns from both the companies' and the consumers' viewpoint and is based on international research. A methodology is presented to assess the degree of standardisation by conducting an extensive case study using both qualitative and quantitative research methods. Consumers from three different countries around the world (USA, United Kingdom and Greece) were asked to give their personal views by completing online questionnaires in order to evaluate the different perceptual values of consumers from each specific country concerning standardised or adapted advertising. The analysis should help shed light on the international advertising industry and should be particularly useful to professionals in the Marketing Communications and Advertising fields. 68 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Bram Stoker's Dracula (1897) creates a set of horrors that elicit a range of disturbing interpretations from readers, and in turn the novel poses significant challenges for the shaping of stage and screen adaptations: it is however a durable and versatile cultural commodity. This work identifies the horrors of vampirism in Dracula and how these are constructed to engage with themes of sexuality, disease and race. It shows that Dracula's horrors are defamiliarizing, foreign and supernatural, yet came uncannily close to home for contemporary readers. It demonstrates the impact of the novel's violent and sexualized content, and ponderous epistolary form, on the process of adapting it for the stage. It also evidences the tradition of including a love-story component between vampire and victim, and how this impacts upon the construction of horror in film adaptations. 60 pp. Englisch.

This book conveys the reflections of a leadership team's journey using an RTI framework for school improvement. A group of four leaders active in the implementation process met monthly for a period of 2 years to reflect upon and document the processes taken and learning gained while implementing an RTI framework. This book outlines evidence of growth in student learning, improved school culture and the collective understanding of learning gained as we engaged in system change. The salient elements found in implementation of an RTI framework are: creating a culture of collaboration, aligning systems and structures to support student learning, and adopting a continuous improvement mindset. A rubric for each of these three themes describing basic concepts and leadership actions required to implement and sustain them are shared. Successful RTI implementation is critically important to ongoing efforts to improve education for all children in America. RTI is an effective model to drive the needed reform. 56 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This work was the culmination of my four year BA(Hons) in Social Science college career in Dublin Business School. As a General Assistant within the Addiction Service, I felt that the role had never been explored and that there was no research pertaining directly to it. As front-line staff in Addiction Centres in the Dublin area, General Assistants are exposed to drug addiction in its rawest form. Adddiction Centres are tertiary referral centres for patients who are opiate dependant and many have other physical, psychological and social difficulties. Although service users are a vulnerable cohort, the difficulties which they experience are at times manifested in abusive, anti-social, and threatening behaviour. Invariably it is left to the General Assistants to ensure these incidents are safely resolved for all parties. This work sought to explore the relationships between General Assistants and service users, the impact the job has on staff's well being, the role itself within the multidisciplinary team, and any changes which could be implimented. This is the first piece of comprehensive research this author could find regarding this role and hopefully it will not be the last. 68 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book presents some numerical explicit schemes for some linear and nonlinear Parabolic PDEs. A number of different schemes for solving partial difference equations have been proposed.However,in using the explicit methods, stability of algorithms is a serious problem.The scheme is required the condition of step size ratio k/(h h) is limited, where k and h are step sizes for space and time respectively,and we have to take small time step size which causes the long time in calculation. We will present the explicit scheme for some parabolic equations,which has no restriction on the step size ratio k/(h h). We also prove convergence of difference schemes.In this book, we present four papers. Using the same idea, we may derive the difference equation for other PDEs problem. The presentation of this book is comprehensible by the beginners also.This book will help the physicists, chemist, computer scientist, applied mathematicians, engineers, who undertakes research on phenomena the linear and nonlinear PDEs. 60 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The investigation of domain specificity by means of structural models is undoubtedly one of the most cutting edge subjects in creativity research. Whereas the dominant approach conceives creativity as a general capacity, a more recent approach conceives creativity as domain specific. Three major domains of creative expression are often identified: art, science, and everyday life. The hybrid approach reconciles the domain-general and domain-specific paradigms by including domain-general, domain-specific, and even task specific features. The present research explored the hybrid approach. The cognitive-conative creative profile was investigated in the domains of art, science, and everyday life. The artistic creative profile of architects was compared to the scientific creative profile of social scientists and the everyday creative profile of the general population. The differential approach to creativity, integrating both domain-general and domain-specific features, was supported. This book establishes different creative profiles with regard to specific domains of creative expression. 52 pp. Englisch.
