Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -The tourism industry in Tanzania has experienced an extraordinary growth over the years. The success of our tourism industry is hardly surprising. Few destinations worldwide can compete with what Tanzania has to offer. But tourism is a very competitive industry: destinations rise and decline. The tourism hot spots of the 1950s were entirely forgotten by the 1960s. The top destinations of the late 1970s had fallen into oblivion by the end of the 1990s. Some destinations that enjoyed some considerable success at the beginning of the new millennium had already been supplanted by the beginning of the 2010s. It is in this context that Tanzaniäs tourism industry has to be shaped in a manner that can withstand such a cyclic eventuality. ¿Making Tourism Work for Tanzaniä is a book that offers recommendations that could help the industry not only grow sustainable but also become beneficial to all Tanzanians.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 88 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -We can write more natural phenomenon with the golden ratio equations. We will derive the golden ratio from a right-angled triangle. We will connect the golden ratio with hyperbolic functions. The same equation can be interpreted as a golden ratio, as a relativistic Doppler effect, and also as a recourse to a ¿Special Relativity Theory'. With the right-angled triangle, we will connect the golden ratio with rapidity and pseudorapidity. We will see that the Lorentz transformation equations relating to the circle, and the Lorentz transformation equations relating to the hyperbola describe the same phenomenon. Both equations describe the hyperbolic world at the same time. With the mentioned right-angled triangle, we presented the rotation of the coordinate system in Euclidean space, with the arbitrarily chosen point. We will derive from the Einstein¿s equation (x' - ct') = p (x - ct), the p variable. And, we will derive from the Einstein's equation (x' + ct') = m (x + ct), the m variable. After that, we introduce the imaginary number in our equations.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 80 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -Nowadays there is an increasing evidence that Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (MCS) involves dysregulation of multiple systems of the organism. The cornerstone of pathogenesis of the disease can be traced to an overwhelmed oxidative and nitrosative stress reactions, insufficient detoxification, neurogenic inflammation, disruption of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and hypoperfusion in the capsulothalamic region. Different inflammation molecules can be potential biomarkers of the disease that could form the basis of the clinical diagnostics of MCS. When MCS is related to Dampness and Mold Hypersensitivity Syndrome, patients may experience recurrent infections but the principle problem is that MCS is a systemic chronic inflammation and hyperactivation of several sensory receptors. Our review was written for the purpose to summarize available knowledge to clarify the pathological mechanisms involved in MCS.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 64 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -In Sri Lanka Army soldiers retire in the active age group of 40-45 and most of them are with lots of experience, skills, knowledge and potentials which could be utilized to enhance the country¿s economy whilst providing them with meaningful employment opportunities or converting them as successful entrepreneurs. However, there is no realistic and scientifically drawn up mechanism in Sri Lanka to properly absorb them into the active labour force with maximum utilization. In this backdrop, their skills, knowledge and potentials will be underutilized and it will be a loss for the country¿s economy in the long-run. Unlike in developed countries, in Sri Lanka, this issue of veterans¿ transition into successful civilian life has not yet been addressed by both researchers and policy makers. Moreover, many researches undertaken by defence establishments rarely come into public domain. This study examines the entrepreneurial aspirations and the expectations of retired military personnel of the Sri Lanka Army in successful transition from military life to civilian life and preparing them for entrepreneurship as a post military career choice.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 72 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -In extra high voltage power transmission, power transformer is the most important component. Insulation failure within transformer is considered to be one of the most important causes of failure of power transformer. Comparison of neutral currents at reduced and full voltages was carried out for detection of fault in a power transformer winding during impulse test. In order to assess the integrity of the winding, high voltage power transformers were subjected to full and chopped impulse voltages of specified values in accordance with the standard requirement. One of the tests carried out was the comparison of applied voltage and resultant neutral current signal at reduced and full voltage levels. The difference in wave shape of the recorded current and voltage signal confirmed the existence of fault in the transformer winding. In the present work, 61MVA, 11.5/230 kV generator transformer has been considered for analysis. The component of the noise which is inherent in the signal during recording was isolated using Daubechies wavelet and these de-noised signals were analyzed to identify the fault in the winding.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 84 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -The fracture behavior of rubber is a complex one. The magnitude of the tearing energy is influenced by the types of tear failure commonly known as steady (smooth), stick-slip and knotty tear. There are a number of factors affecting the types of tear failure such as the nature of the rubber itself whether it is a strain-crystallizing or non-strain-crystallizing type, the types and amount of filler, the types of chemical crosslink and its concentration in the rubber network, rate and temperature of tear measurements. This book chapter discusses some of the work (past and present) by the author to investigate the factors affecting the types of tear behavior in both unvulcanized and vulcanized rubbers covering both unfilled and filled systems. Some established theories such as the Tearing Energy of Rivlin and Thomas, Two-Network Theory of Rivlin and Thomas, Supercoiled Network Theory are used to explain some of the phenomenon of the tear behavior in particular the most peculiar one known as knotty tear. Latest development work on vulcanized black-filled and nano-filled NR latex film are discussed too.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 68 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -On average, 340 students graduate each year from Al Akhawayn University in Ifrane (AUI) from three different schools and in different fields. As a requirement to graduate either with a bachelor or a master degree, students must work on a project and defend it in order to graduate. Before deciding on the implementation of this new approach of automatic document indexing, we were looking at the previous research work done at AUI. The available library resource allowing to check for reports and work done by students is not very helpful and complex to use. Then, came the idea of creating a simple-to-use Thesis Search Engine that will have as an added value the following: ¿ First, automating the indexing of theses using Natural Language Processing technologies and WordNet. ¿ Second, creating a user friendly and a responsive web application for users. ¿ Third, advancements in research are based on previously conducted work and results throughout history. This is one of the goals of this system, which is making the retrieval of previous work done by AUI students easy to access. In general, this solution will enhance the research quality of any institution adopting this system.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 52 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -Citizenship forms the relationship between the state and its citizens. It is important that this relationship is healthy so that there can be progress. Citizens should be taught about their rights and responsibilities. It is important that rights and responsibilities are on par. Neither of the two should be emphasized more than the other. Responsibilities include both duties and obligations. Duties entail those responsibilities that are enforceable by the law and carry sanctions. Obligations are those responsibilities that are imposed on citizens by their morality. They are thus voluntary in nature. If young people are taught good citizenship at an early age they will develop the morality to carry out their obligation to the state voluntarily. This will lead to a healthy functioning of the state because citizens will be acting voluntarily in carrying out their obligations to their state.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 64 pp. Englisch.
