Density functional theory (DFT) has become the standard workhorse for quantum mechanical simulations as it offers a good compromise between accuracy and computational cost. However, there are many imp
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 17 International Symposium on Stabilization, Safety, and Security of Distributed Systems, SSS 2015, held in Edmonton, AB, Canada, in August 2015.
Michael Hubrich nimmt den Korper als elementare Grundkategorie soziologischer Theorien in den Blick. Er rekonstruiert anhand der Korperbegriffe bei Michel Foucault und Erving Goffman zwar wichtige, ab
Die vorliegende Arbeit zielt darauf ab, Momente der Husserlschen Phanomenologie hervorzuheben, in denen diese an ihre Grenzen stost. Der Ausweis dieser Grenzphanomene, die in der Husserl-Literatur bis

The development of linear-scaling density functional theory (LS-DFT) has made ab initio calculations on systems containing thousands of atoms possible. These systems range from nanostructures to biomo
There is an increasing appreciation of the interconnections among all forms of violence. These interconnections have critical implications for conducting research that can produce valid conclusions ab
This textbook introduces modern techniques based on computer simulation to study materials science. It starts from first principles calculations enabling to calculate the physical and chemical propert
This unique publication focuses on eight magnificent handwritten cyphering books prepared by mathematics students in England and North America between 1630 and 1835, including a ‘missing page’ from Ab
Over the past 4 billion years, microorganisms have contributed to shaping the earth and making it more habitable for higher forms of life. They are remarkable in their metabolic diversity and their ab
Recently the interest in Bohm realist interpretation of quantum mechanics has grown. The important advantage of this approach lies in the possibility to introduce non-locality ab initio, and not as an
Clinical Toxicology is the second volume of a three-volume set on molecular, clinical and environmental toxicology that offers a comprehensive and in-depth response to the increasing importance and ab
This book presents the latest understanding of the solid physics, electronic implications and practical applications of the unique spontaneous or pyro-electric polarization charge of hexagonal semico
This book deals with the theoretical and computational simulation of monoperiodic nanostructures for different classes of inorganic substances. These simulations are related to their synthesis and exp

This book is a part of the Proceedings of the Seventh International Symposium on Neural Networks (ISNN 2010), held on June 6-9, 2010 in Shanghai, China. ISNN 2010 received numerous submissions from ab
This book presents extensive information on the mechanisms of epitaxial growth in III-nitride compounds, drawing on a state-of-the-art computational approach that combines ab initio calculations, empi
This brief provides an overview of theoretical research in organic ferromagnetic material design using quantum chemical approaches based on molecular orbital theory from primary Hückel to ab initio l
This book serves as a practical guide to methods and statistics in medical research. It includes step-by-step instructions on using SPSS software for statistical analysis, as well as relevant examples
The complex intersecting of genetic, biological, and environmental factors can make intellectual impairments difficult for clinicians to assess and treat. When such comorbid conditions as substance ab
Differential algebraic equations (DAEs), including so-called descriptor systems, began to attract significant research interest in applied and numerical mathematics in the early 1980s, no more than ab
