Abstract:

For the first time in the world literature, the monograph examines both the theoretical beginnings of the flotation process using multistage and generalized flotation models, as well as practical recommendations based on the principles of biosimilarity. Diagrams of various types of combined flotation equipment and their operating modes are presented. New aeration systems for use in various flotation devices, including flotation combines, are considered. Examples of the use of new flotation technology using ejectors for both aeration and mixing of reagents with purified water are describe

Abstract:

This article considers how functional kernel methods can be used to study α-mixing datasets. It first provides an overview of how prediction problems involving dependent functional datasets may arise from the study of time series, focusing on the standard discretized model and modelization that takes into account the functional nature of the evolution of the quantity to be studied over time. It then considers strong mixing conditions, with emphasis on the notion of α-mixing coefficients and α-mixing variables introduced by Rosenblatt (1956). It also describes some conditions for a Markov chain

Abstract The book is intended as a handbook providing detailed instructions for the correct conducting of jar tests, which are needed for the optimisation of the coagulation/flocculation process. It contains the essential theoretical background of coagulation/flocculation, including a description of the influence of different parameters on the coagulation efficiency of various impurities (e.g. pH value and type/dose of coagulant), and floc properties and their separation (e.g. mixing intensity, mixing time, but also type/concentration of coagulant and impurities).

Abstract:

After a review of conformal symmetry, this chapter covers the quantisation of fields in curved space-times. It is shown that field operators defined with respect to different vacua are related by a Bogolyubov transformation and that the mixing of positive and negative frequencies determines the amount of particle production. The Unruh effect is explained and it is shown that in a space-time with an event horizon, a thermal spectrum of particles is created close to the horizon.

These notes are restricted to those geochemical methods which have been used to quantify rates of groundwater recharge. There have been two main approaches. The first involves the use of mass balances and mixing cell models, mainly using conservative (non-reacting) dissolved species.

The second approach seeks to estimate the age or residence time of the groundwater by measuring compounds which are radioactive, or whose input to th

This book has its origin in the need for developing and analyzing mathematical models for phenomena that evolve in time and influence each another, and aims at a better understanding of the structure and asymptotic behavior of stochastic processes.

Second, to apply the normal approximations presented in the book to various examples. The main tools consist of inequalities for dependent sequences of random variables, leading to limit theorems, including

This chapter discusses changes in racial categories applied to African Americans in the censuses from 1870 to 1900. At the time of the 1870 census, the schedules offered five choices of “color”: white, black, mulatto, Chinese, and Indian. The instructions for censustakers emphasized the importance of the “mulatto” category, which from that time on explicitly included quadroons and octoroons, and went all the way down the line to the “one drop rule.” The question of unions between members of subordinate groups was not addressed, but this was a secondary concern since the point of the system was

Abstract:

The global market in antiquities has been described as a grey market. We provide a breakdown of the meanings and implications of this greyness. Usually the term refers to the mixing of recently looted antiquities with those that can be sold legally, thus the antiquities market is grey because illicit objects are sold via a public and purportedly legitimate network of dealers and auction houses. This is supported by a second form of greyness: the ethically grey status of individual looted objects after time and their passage through jurisdictions via multiple trades obscures or overwrites their

Abstract:

This article presents data on the kārum period of Anatolia. During the first centuries of the second millennium BCE, Assyrian merchants originating from Assur, on the Upper Tigris, organized large-scale commercial exchanges with central Anatolia. They settled in several localities, called kārums. This Akkadian word, which usually designates the quay or port in Mesopotamian cities, refers in Anatolia to the Assyrian merchant district and its administrative building. Thus, the kārum period—which comprises the Old Assyrian period—covers the time during which the Assyrians traded in Anatolia, from

The inclusion of a pharmacist in the palliative care team is becoming appreciated and widespread. Effective medicines management can improve patient outcomes and have financial benefits for organizations. Most patients prefer to spend as much time as possible at home so pharmacist input in the community is especially crucial in ensuring they receive their medicines and have information to support them in taking them. Palliative care normally involves using strong opioids and the legal requirements surrounding their use can be complex. Pharmacists have detailed knowledge in this area so can adv

In 1782, Dibdin entered into a partnership with Charles Hughes to set up a new entertainment venue, the Royal Circus.

This chapter analyses how the Circus sought to compete with its rivals through its architecture and location, spectacle, music, novelties (including performances by children), and the mixing of genres and forms.
