Specially featured in this reissue is the addition of valuable World Wide Web links to the latest speech data references.

This book contains the research report of the Collaborative Research Center “Micro Cold Forming” (SFB 747) of the University of Bremen, Germany. The topical research focus lies on new methods and processes for a mastered mass production of micro parts which are smaller than 1mm (by forming in batch size higher than one million). The target audience primarily comprises research experts and practitioners in production engineering, but the book may also be of interest to graduate students alike.

Knapp und präzise ist zu häufigen und seltenen Krankheitsbildern, die für die tägliche Routine des Hämatologen relevant sind, das diagnostische Vorgehen beschrieben. Von der Zytomorphologie ausgehend werden die notwendigen Bezüge zur Zytogenetik, Molekulargenetik und Immunologie mit einbezogen. Über 800 Abbildungen von typischen Blut- und Knochenmarkausstrichen illustrieren die Befunde und können als Vergleichsbilder für die eigene Diagnostik verwendet werden. Die aktuelle WHO-Klassifikation von 2017 ist umfassend berücksichtigt.

This book provides a review of thermal ice drilling technologies, including the design, parameters, and performance of various tools and drills for making holes in ice sheets, ice caps, mountain glaciers, ice shelves, and sea ice. In recent years, interest in thermal drilling technology has increased as a result of subglacial lake explorations and extraterrestrial investigations.

This book describes modern applications of computational human modeling in an effort to advance neurology, cancer treatment, and radio-frequency studies including regulatory, safety, and wireless communication fields. Readers working on any application that may expose human subjects to electromagnetic radiation will benefit from this book’s coverage of the latest models and techniques available to assess a given technology’s safety and efficacy in a timely and efficient manner.

On his first day on the job as a narcotics officer, a rookie cop works with a rogue detective who isn't what he appears.

The Juan Fernández Archipelago is located in the Pacific Ocean west of Chile at 33° S latitude. Robinson Crusoe Island is 667 km from the continent and approximately four million years old; Alejandro Selkirk Island is an additional 181 km west and only one million years old. The natural impacts of subsidence and erosion have shaped the landscapes of these islands, resulting in progressive changes to their subtropical vegetation.
