Biological and Bio-Inspired Fluid Dynamics - David E. Rival - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Booktok.dk

Biological and Bio-Inspired Fluid Dynamics - David E. Rival - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Booktok.dk

This text provides the reader with tools necessary to study biological and bio-inspired flows, all the while developing an appreciation for their evolutionary and engineering constraints. It is suitable for students already exposed to introductory concepts in fluid mechanics and applied mechanics as a whole, but who would not need an advanced training in fluid mechanics per se. Currently no textbook exists that can take students from an introductory position in fluid mechanics to these contemporary topics of interest. The book is ideal for upper-level undergraduates and graduate students studying a range of engineering domains as well as biology, or even medicine.

An Introduction to Bayesian Inference, Methods and Computation - Nick Heard - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Plusbog.dk

An Introduction to Bayesian Inference, Methods and Computation - Nick Heard - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Plusbog.dk

These lecture notes provide a rapid, accessible introduction to Bayesian statistical methods. The course covers the fundamental philosophy and principles of Bayesian inference, including the reasoning behind the prior/likelihood model construction synonymous with Bayesian methods, through to advanced topics such as nonparametrics, Gaussian processes and latent factor models. These advanced modelling techniques can easily be applied using computer code samples written in Python and Stan which are integrated into the main text. Importantly, the reader will learn methods for assessing model fit, and to choose between rival modelling approaches.

Global Responses to Conflict and Crisis in Syria and Yemen - Maia Carter Hallward - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Booktok.dk

Global Responses to Conflict and Crisis in Syria and Yemen - Maia Carter Hallward - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Booktok.dk

This book compares different international responses to the internal conflicts in Syria and Yemen through an examination of the coverage each conflict has received in the media. The work explores and evaluates rival explanations for why the Syrian conflict has garnered so much more attention than the Yemen conflict and the opportunities and limitations for using international law and international humanitarian law to discuss and analyze intervention. Using this assessment, the authors discuss why this differential attention matters in terms of IR theory, humanitarian response, and policy recommendations for responding to humanitarian crises.

Structuring the Self - Majid Davoody Beni - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Booktok.dk

Structuring the Self - Majid Davoody Beni - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Booktok.dk

This book presents a unified account of the self, based on a network of knowledge sourced from several scientific accounts of selfhood. Beni constructs his ontological account of the self from the common structure that underpins the theoretical diversity that is manifested in rival and sometimes incompatible scientific accounts of the self and its aspects. The enterprise is inspired by recent structural realist theories in the philosophy of science, specifying the basic structure of the self, and explaining how representational, phenomenal, and social aspects of the self are embodied within this structure.

Historical Epistemology of Ecological Economics - Alberto Fragio - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Booktok.dk

Historical Epistemology of Ecological Economics - Alberto Fragio - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Booktok.dk

This volume uses historical epistemology in order to address several topics in the history of economic thought, with special emphasis on ecological economics, environmental metaphors of scarcity, and mathematical ecology. Using the field of ecological economics as an anchor point, the author reflects on the styles of reasoning in economics with a view towards understanding the nature of disagreement that stems from a failure of communication between rival approaches in economics. A thorough inquiry into issues related to identity, coherence, pluralism, and reception, this volume will appeal to researchers and students interested in history of economic thought, ecological economics, and philosophy of the sciences.

The Power of Perceptions in the Middle East - Warda Samara - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Booktok.dk

The Power of Perceptions in the Middle East - Warda Samara - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Booktok.dk

This book analyzes conflicting political views and narratives held by different forces, both at the local and regional levels in the Middle East. Based on case studies and analysis of local economic projects, it highlights the often conflicting concepts and visions for economic and social development in the Middle East as espoused by rival political groups and grassroots organizations. The book also discusses the power of perceptions and knowledge production in shifting dynamics of power and changing the social-political dynamics in the Middle East. Furthermore, it provides a case study on the multidimensional problem of the Sykes-Picot Agreement. It will appeal to scholars of Middle Eastern politics and economics as well as political decision-makers and investors, interested in the political and economic development of the Middle East.
