Spectral Photon Counting Computed Tomography Technology and Applications

Spectral Photon Counting Computed Tomography Technology and Applications

Spectral Photon Counting Computed Tomography is a comprehensive cover of the latest developments in the most prevalent imaging modality (x-ray computed tomography (CT)) in its latest incarnation: Spectral Dual-Energy and Photon Counting CT. Disadvantages of the conventional single-energy technique used by CT technology are that different materials cannot be distinguished and that the noise is larger. To address these problems a novel spectral CT concept has been proposed. Spectral Dual-Energy CT (DE-CT) acquires two sets of spectral data and Spectral Photon Counting CT (PC-CT) detects energy of x-ray photons to reveal additional material information of objects by using novel energy-sensitive photon-counting detectors. The K-edge imaging may be a gateway for functional or molecular CT. The book covers detectors and electronics image reconstruction methods image quality assessments a simulation tool nanoparticle contrast agents and clinical applications for spectral CT. | Spectral Photon Counting Computed Tomography Technology and Applications

Java Programming for Engineers

Java Programming for Engineers

While teaching Java programming at Minnesota State University the authors noticed that engineering students were enrolling in Java programming courses in order to obtain basic programming skills but there were no Java books suitable for courses intended for engineers. They realized the need for a comprehensive Java programming tutorial that offers basic programming skills that can be applied in the field of engineering. With this in mind the authors developed Java Programming for Engineers in order to meet the needs of both engineers and engineering students. The text uses the personal computer as a development platform and assumes no prior programming experience or knowledge. The only skills expected of the reader are basic keyboarding and user-level familiarity with the PC. Topics covered range from mathematical expressions to linear systems to engineering graphics. Chapters on problem solving skills and the designing of engineering applications walk readers through real word problems they might encounter. Divided into two parts Part 1 is a description of the Java language of the fundamentals of object orientation input and output operations and error handling. Part 2 is about Java programming for engineers. It starts with computer number systems fixed- and variable-precision numeric data mathematical programming in Java as could be of interest to engineers and concludes with an overview of Java Graphics.

Foreign Currency Claims Judgments and Damages

Foreign Currency Claims Judgments and Damages

Currency fluctuation currency wars and even potential currency collapse (the Euro the Bitcoin) are all risks that commercial parties must consider and guard against. This book gathers together in one volume all the information and advice practitioners are likely to need when advising on advancing or defending claims involving a foreign currency element. The determination of the proper currency (or currencies) of a claim often has a dramatic effect on the level of a court judgment or arbitration award that is ultimately obtained. It is therefore vital for practitioners to accurately assess claims which involve a foreign currency element. The authors guide the reader through the legal principles governing how foreign currency claims are treated in English law. The book covers both the treatment of foreign currency in substantive law as well as such procedural matters as how to claim interest correctly on a foreign currency claim and how to plead prove or disprove the applicability of a particular currency. This book is an invaluable and essential resource for all lawyers involved in international commerce but will be of particular interest to those engaged in international finance commodity transactions international shipping and transport and the insurance of assets and liabilities abroad. Those who practise in this country need guidance in navigating the tricky waters that The Despina R unleashed. This excellent book provides that guidance. The authors have been uniquely well placed to meet the challenge of analysing what is a perplexing body of jurisprudence and to suggest principled answers to currency issues that have not yet been the subject of judicial decision. They consider not merely claims in contract and tort but every type of claim that might raise an issue in relation to a foreign currency. The Rt Hon. The Lord Phillips of Worth Matravers KG PC President of the Supreme Court of the United Kingdom 2009-2012 | Foreign Currency Claims Judgments and Damages

Incorrect Thoughts Notes on Our Wayward Culture

Incorrect Thoughts Notes on Our Wayward Culture

In this new volume of political essays and social commentary John Leo offers a lively alternative to the Washington-oriented slant of much political journalism. Rejecting the dry insider's air of knowing punditry Leo's conversational style and acerbic wit engage the reader with his insightful and humorous views of what is going on in education law advertising television the news media language and the various liberation movements that are shaping-and sometimes convulsing-the country. The unifying thread of Incorrect Thoughts is the emergence of Political Correctness and its diffusion throughout American social and cultural life. Most of the media have viewed the rise of PC as a collection of unimportant oddball anecdotes but Leo perceives it as a coherent social movement sweeping through colleges and schools the courts the media the feminist movement and the art world. Its goals are traditional goals of the left-equality inclusion liberation racial justice-but as Leo notes the tactics employed are often less than noble and the contempt for tradition standards and Western culture has grown each year. The new orthodoxy has developed a taste for censorship and coercion. Speech codes and anti-harassment policies are used as weapons to silence and intimidate opponents. Speakers have been shouted down and whole editions of college newspapers stolen to keep students from reading the arguments of conservatives and moderates. Readers will find here judicious and often devastating appraisals of self-esteem and therapeutic trends in education of efforts to revamp history along multicultural lines and of the extremities and absurdities of identity politics among other of the latest fashions in radical chic. Drawing from ideas first presented in his U. S. News and World Report columns Leo charts the political fever of a contentious and disordered period in American society. At the same time his pointed humor long-term perspective and strong moral edge ensures his continuing importance to the debates of our time. This book will interest those who share Leo's concerns as well as those who appreciate models for incisive political commentary. | Incorrect Thoughts Notes on Our Wayward Culture
