The result of decades of research by a pioneer in the field, this is the first book to deal exclusively with achieving high-performance metal-polymer composites by chemical bonding. Covering both the academic and practical aspects, the author focuses on the chemistry of interfaces between metals and polymers with a particular emphasis on the chemical bonding between the different materials. He elucidates the various approaches to obtaining a stable interface, including, but not limited to, thermodynamically driven redox reactions, bond protection to prevent hydrolysis, the introduction of barrier layers, and stabilization by spacer molecules. Throughout, chemical bonding is promoted as a simple and economically viable alternative to adhesion based on reversible weak physical interaction. Consequently, the text equips readers with the practical tools necessary for designing high-strength metal-polymer composites with such desired properties as resilience, flexibility, rigidity or degradation resistance.

BEST PRACTICES FROM CHINA'S HIGH-PERFORMING SCHOOL SYSTEM Empowered Educators in China is one volume in a series that explores how high-performing educational systems from around the world achieve strong results. The anchor book, Empowered Educators: How High-Performing Systems Shape Teaching Quality Around the World, is written by Linda Darling-Hammond and colleagues, with contributions from the author of this volume. Empowered Educators in China describes the nation's policy reforms that built the modern Chinese educational system and the educational practices that are considered typical in China. The book spotlights Shanghai's system which is distinctive and superior. Shanghai offers a clear illustration of an educational system that continually invests in educating a diverse student population and, by measures of international comparison tests, is achieving outstanding results. Many factors contribute to the Shanghai system's ongoing success, including the students' motivation toward strong performance, the parental support for education that is culturally ingrained throughout the country, the focus that teachers place on high expectations for students, and the individual tutoring they provide. The author argues that these factors are only a partial explanation of Shanghai's success and then closely describes educational policies that support teachers' preparation, hiring, ongoing development, and opportunities for awards and leadership. These policies are based on the assumption that teachers are key to the nation's future and must be appropriately supported in order to contribute to student performance and achievement, an assumption that is also explicitly stated within Chinese law. This volume offers specific descriptions of how these national policies are translated, adapted, and enacted in Shanghai.

Obwohl Schwingungsprobleme in der Praxis zunehmend auftreten, werden sie von Tragwerkplanern gern umgangen. Statische Ersatzlasten, Stoßfaktoren oder Schwingbeiwerte werden angewendet, ohne sich der Anwendungsgrenzen bewusst zu sein. Dieses Buch weckt das Grundverständnis für die den Theorien zugrunde liegenden Modellvorstellungen und die Begrifflichkeiten der Dynamik. Die wichtigsten Kenngrößen werden beschrieben und mit Beispielen verdeutlicht. Darauf baut der anwendungsbezogene Teil mit den Problemen der Baudynamik – Stoßvorgänge, freie und erzwungene Schwingungen, Amplitudenreduktion durch Schwingungsdämpfer, menscheninduzierte Schwingungen, Einführung in die Baugrunddynamik und Maßnahmen des Erschütterungsschutzes – anhand von Beispielen auf. Mit diesem Rüstzeug kann sich der Nutzer in spezielle Fälle wie Glockentürme, dynamische Windlasten oder erdbebensicheres Bauen einarbeiten. Dem Bedarf der Praxis folgend wurde die 2. Auflage korrigiert, erweitert und um folgende Abschnitte ergänzt: – Eigenfrequenzen von Pfahlgründungen, – Diskretisierung homogener Systeme infolge „stehender Wellen“, – Ermüdung bei schwingungsanfälligen Stahlbrücken, – konstruktiver Explosionsschutz, – dynamische Kräfte bei Kurbeltrieb, – Abschirmung von Bodenwellen durch vertikale Schlitzkonstruktionen.

An important resource that reviews the various infectious diseases that affect bats and bat populations Bats and Human Health: Ebola, SARS, Rabies and Beyond covers existing literature on viral, bacterial, protozoan, and fungal infections of bats and how these infections affect bat populations. The book also offers an overview of the potential for zoonotic transmission of infectious diseases from bats to humans or domestic animals. While most prior publications on the subject have dealt only with bat viral infections, this text closely covers a wide range of bat infections, from viral and bacterial infections to protist and fungal infections. Chapters on viral infections cover rabies, filoviruses, henipaviruses, and other RNA viruses, as well as information on bat virome studies. The book then provides information on bacterial infections–including arthropod-borne and other bacteria that affect bats–before moving on to protist infections, including apicomplexans and kinetoplastids, and fungal infections, including white-nose syndrome, histoplasma capsulatum, and other fungi. Comprehensive in scope, yet another key feature of this book is a searchable database that includes bat species, bat family, bat diet, bat location, type and classification of infecting microbes, and categories of microbes. This vital resource also: Provides a history and comprehensive overview of bat-borne diseases Incorporates information from the World Health Organization, as well as historical data from the National Libraries of Health and infectious disease journals Covers a variety of diseases including viral infections, bacterial infections, protist infections, and fungal infections Written for microbiologist, bat researchers, and conservationists, Bats and Human Health provides a comprehensive exploration of the various types of microbes that affect bats and their potential to affect human populations.
