This book deals with the introduction of new technology into women's work - the impact it is making the problems it generates. The emphasis is placedon the exploraiton of women's perspectives on computerization in the office and in manufacturing. Other topics dealt with include: -an analysis of the strengths and weaknesses in women's participation in systems design and in educaton: - an examinatio

The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive of the European Commission places the responsibility on producers to finance collection and treatment of waste deposited at collection facilities after 13 August 2005, on a collective or individual basis. The research identifies practical steps that are needed for producers to address WEEE from private households on an individual, rath

At the turn of the Century the man/woman-relationship was debated in media, public leisure life and in the genre of self help literature. The “Heterosexual Couple” was – and is - portrayed in a number of culturally fixed and thematic ways, often conceptualized via the dichotomies of Male and Female, harmony and conflict, the traditional and the modern, ideal and reality. In this thesis different

A discussion of moral choice and its reasoning, using the rescue of the Danish Jews from Nazi persecution in October 1943 as an example

Transient electromagnetic wave propagation in a stratified, anisotropic, dispersive medium is considered. Specifically, the direct scattering problem is addressed. The dispersive, anisotropic medium is modeled by constitutive relations (a 3 3 matrix-valued susceptibility operator) containing time convolution integrals. In the general case, nine different susceptibility kernels characterize the med

Nearfield Radar Cross Section (RCS) measurements and Inverse Synthetic Aperture Radar (ISAR) processing are used in this study to obtain geometrically correct images and farfield RCS. The back projection algorithm is used to determine the amplitudes and locations for the scatterers in a point by point imaging process. Different approximations are used to sum the nearfield RCS recorded at an azimut

This text contains an overview of the field of frost and salt-frost resistance of concrete. It consists of three parts: First, a summary of known phenomena of frost and salt frost deterioration of concrete, then a description of thermodynamics of ice formation in porous materials, and finally a description of proposed models and mechanisms of deterioration during frost and salt frost attack. The c
