This book reviews in detail the history of motion analysis, including the earliest attempts to capture, freeze, study and reproduce motion. The state-of-the-art technology in use today, i.e. optoelect

This book provides an in-depth roadmap for qualitative research methods and data analysis across disciplines using ATLAS.ti. It encompasses and rationalizes key qualitative research concepts and methods with innovative frameworks to enrich the reader’s understanding of qualitative research methods and data analysis. The book contains multiple real-world projects that assist readers in developing conceptual and theoretical knowledge, as well as gaining insights from fieldwork, visualizing data collection, analysis, and methodological interpretations.This easy to use book provides a pragmatic approach to qualitative methods, proficiency in capturing field observations, user-friendly steps to data analysis starting from transcription, preparation of data, reading and identification of quotations, coding, memoing, commenting, code groups, creating smart codes and groups using set, semantic, and proximity operators resulting in generating numerous insightful thematic reports in avariety of

This study of Schrödinger equations with power-type nonlinearity provides a great deal of insight into other dispersive partial differential equations and geometric partial differential equations. It presents important proofs, using tools from harmonic analysis, microlocal analysis, functional analysis, and topology. This includes a new proof of Keel–Tao endpoint Strichartz estimates, and a new proof of Bourgain's result for radial, energy-critical NLS. It also provides a detailed presentation of scattering results for energy-critical and mass-critical equations. This book is suitable as the basis for a one-semester course, and serves as a useful introduction to nonlinear Schrödinger equations for those with a background in harmonic analysis, functional analysis, and partial differential equations.

This book explores how structures of social inequality are linked to the social connections that people hold. The authors focus upon occupational inequalities where they see, for example, that the typ
