Hardback. Etat : Good. The culprit for deficiencies of knowledge about medium-sized companies is their frequent inclusion among small companies. The authors try to find arguments for a more sensible definition of medium-sized company in modern microeconomic theory, theory of entrepreneurship and theory of financial markets. According to the first one, companies grow until they reach the minimum efficient scale. On the other hand, a company's size is determined by incomplete contractual relationships. The second theory argues that medium-sized companies have some advantages because a more manageable number of employees and closer ties between them and the entrepreneur may reduce monitoring costs. In addition, the employees are more willing to invest in formation of specific skills required for their post. The third theory claims that due to information asymmetry medium-sized firms resort predominantly to internal sources of financing (depreciation, retained profits), while banks (relationship banking) are more frequently among external sources of finance than capital markets. The book deals with medium-sized companies in a fourfold manner: conceptual what are medium-sized companies; dynamic -- how do they grow; national -- how a national economy to a large extent depends on the efficiency of medium-sized companies; and international -- how some medium-sized companies acquire characteristics of multinational companies by means of foreign investment.…

Hardback. Etat : Good. In recent years, among numerous advanced composite materials, non-homogeneous materials, such as functionally graded materials and laminated media, have received considerable attention in the field of structural design subjected to external thermo-electro-mechanical loads. Such non-homogeneous materials are composed of two or more materials of different properties or functions. The gradual change of properties can be tailored to different applications and service environments. It is possible with these materials to obtain a combination of properties that cannot be achieved in conventional monolithic materials. A typical example of non-homogeneous materials is the composites fabricated by combining piezoelectric ceramics with other materials. Such non-homogeneous materials are usually used for constructions of intelligent systems. The thermo-electro-mechanical properties of these advanced materials change with spatial positions. The knowledge of fracture behaviour of non-homogeneous materials is important in order to evaluate their structural integrity. A key feature of fracture which distinguishes non-homogeneous materials from homogeneous materials is that the resistance of the former to fracture and damage tolerance varies spatially. Consequently, analyses of fracture in non-homogeneous materials are considerably more complex than in the corresponding homogeneous case of the same specimen and crack geometry subjected to the same loading conditions. Associated complications involving spatially varying material constants have demanded the re-examination of the elastic crack problem. This book brings together the diverse achievements in the field. …

Hardback. Etat : Fair. Computer vision is the science and technology of machines that see. As a scientific discipline, computer vision is concerned with the theory and technology for building artificial systems that obtain information from images. The image data can take many forms, such as a video sequence, views from multiple cameras, or multi-dimensional data from a medical scanner. As a technological discipline, computer vision seeks to apply the theories and models of computer vision to the construction of computer vision systems. Examples of applications of computer vision systems include systems for controlling processes (e.g. an industrial robot or an autonomous vehicle). Detecting events (e.g. for visual surveillance). Organising information (e.g. for indexing databases of images and image sequences), Modelling objects or environments (e.g. industrial inspection, medical image analysis or topographical modelling), Interaction (e.g. as the input to a device for computer-human interaction). Computer vision can also be describe.…
