Managing International Financial Instability National Tamers versus Global Tigers


Free Download Fabrizio Saccomanni, "Managing International Financial Instability: National Tamers versus Global Tigers"
English | 2008 | pages: 305 | ISBN: 1845421426, 1849800316 | PDF | 1,0 mb
Recurrent instability has characterized the global financial system since the 1980s, eventually leading to the current global financial crisis. This instability and the resultant disruptions – sovereign debt defaults, exchange rate misalignments, financial market illiquidity and asset price bubbles – are linked, in this book, to the shortcomings of the global financial system which tends to generate cycles of boom and bust in credit flows. These cycles are set in motion by the monetary impulses of major industrial countries and are amplified and propagated through the operation of global financial markets. Fabrizio Saccomanni argues that to counter such systemic instability requires that national authorities give adequate weight to financial stability objectives when formulating their monetary and regulatory policies. He maintains that appropriate multilateral strategies to deal with unsustainable trends in credit aggregates and asset prices should be devised in the International Monetary Fund in the context of a strengthened framework to deal with global payments imbalances and exchange rate misalignments.

360° Around Shoulder Instability


Free Download 360° Around Shoulder Instability by Roman Brzóska, Giuseppe Milano, Pietro S. Randelli, Ladislav Kovačič
English | EPUB (True) | 2020 | 370 Pages | ISBN : 3662610736 | 112.1 MB
This book presents the current status of shoulder instability treatment with the aim of equipping readers with a comprehensive understanding of the latest concepts of shoulder instability, diagnosis and the decision-making process, conservative treatment, state of the art surgical techniques, and management of treatment failures. Written by leading European and overseas specialists, the book merges the authors’ clinical experience with expert opinions and up-to-date research data to offer shoulder surgeons, physiotherapists, other shoulder practitioners, and residents strong support in everyday practice. The coverage encompasses such pathologies as ALPSA, SLAP, HAGL, and Bankart lesions, and readers will find clear descriptions of soft tissue management, arthroscopic and open stabilization techniques, and recently published bone transfer techniques. Not only is the book copiously illustrated, but it also includes case examples, further illustrations, and links to high-resolution videos of the newest shoulder stabilization techniques performed by globally renowned experts. 360° Around Shoulder Instability is published in cooperation with ESSKA-ESA and is based on the 2nd biennial ESSKA-ESA meeting of the same name.

Instability and Conflict in the Middle East People, Petroleum and Security Threats


Free Download Instability and Conflict in the Middle East: People, Petroleum and Security Threats By Naji Abi-Aad, Michel Grenon
1997 | 244 Pages | ISBN: 0333689364 | PDF | 13 MB
The present book is about instability and conflict in the Middle East at a time when many still believe that peace between the Arabs and Israel will bring an end to all problems in the region. Maybe that is due to the fact that the Arab-Israeli conflict has dominated much of the discussions about the area over the past 50 years. Insufficient attention has therefore been devoted to other important issues that may not be quite as eye-catching or newsworthy. This is exactly what the book is aiming to offer.

Flow Control A Fluid Instability Approach


Free Download Flow Control: A Fluid Instability Approach
English | 2024 | ISBN: 1108832369 | 481 Pages | PDF | 74 MB
This book provides a comprehensive treatment of passive and active flow control in fluid dynamics, with an emphasis on utilizing fluid instabilities for enhancing control performance. Examples are given from a wide range of technologically important flow fields occurring in aerospace applications, from low-subsonic to hypersonic Mach numbers. This essential book can be used for both research and teaching on the topics of fluid instabilities, fluid measurement and flow actuator techniques, and problem sets are provided at the end of each chapter to reinforce key concepts and further extend readers’ understanding of the field. The solutions manual is available as a online resource for instructors. The text is well suited for both graduate students in fluid dynamics and for practising engineers in the aerodynamics design field.

Semiconductor Lasers Stability, Instability and Chaos


Free Download Semiconductor Lasers: Stability, Instability and Chaos by Junji Ohtsubo
English | PDF | 488 Pages | ISBN : 3642091709 | 8.9 MB
Preface for the second edition Chaos research in laser physics, especially in semiconductor lasers, has – veloped further even after completion of the ?rst edition of this book in the late summer of 2004, and it is still growing rapidly. For example, various forms of chaotic dynamics have been applied in newly developed semic- ductor lasers,such as in vertical-cavitysurface-emitting semiconductor lasers and broad-area semiconductor lasers. Chaotic dynamics plays an important role in these new lasers, even for their solitary oscillations, and control of the dynamics is currently an important issue for practical applications. – other signi?cant advance has been made in the area of chaotic optical secure communications. Chaotic secure communications using existing public opt- al communications links have been tested, and successful results have been obtained. In this second edition, I have ?lled in the gaps in the explanation of chaotic laser dynamics in the previous edition, and I have also added s- eral important topics that have been developed recently. In particular, a new chapter on laser stabilizations has been added, and a number of misprints in the ?rst edition have been corrected. I believe this book will be of interest not only to researchers in the ?eld of laser chaos, but also to those working in nonlinear science and technology. Hamamatsu, Spring 2007 Junji Ohtsubo Preface The aim of this book is the description of the state of the art of chaos research in semiconductor lasers and their applications, and the future perspective of this feld.
