Affordances in Everyday Life
The concept of affordances is being increasingly used in fields beyond ecological psychology to reveal previously unexplored interdisciplinary relationships. These fields include engineering, robotics, artificial intelligence, neuroscience, urban theory, architecture, computer science, and much more. As the concept is adapted for its relational meaning between an agent and the environment, or object, the meaning of the term has changed to fit the customs of the adapting field. This book maps the different shades of the term and brings insights into how it is operationalized by providing short accessible essays regardless of background. Each contribution addresses big questions around this to...
Cementitious Materials
Aside from water the materials which are used by mankind in highest quantities arecementitious materials and concrete. This book shows how the quality of the technical product depends on mineral phases and their reactions during the hydration and strengthening process. Additives and admixtures infl uence the course of hydration and the properties. Options of reducing the CO2-production in cementitious materials are presented and numerous examples of unhydrous and hydrous phases and their formation conditions are discussed. This editorial work consists of four parts including cement composition and hydration, Special cement and binder mineral phases, Cementitious and binder materials, and Mea...
Knowledge Engineering and Knowledge Management
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 19th International Conference on Knowledge Engineering and Knowledge Management, EKAW 2014, held in Linköping, Sweden, in November 2014. The 24 full papers and 21 short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 138 submissions. The papers cover all aspects of eliciting, acquiring, modeling, and managing knowledge, the construction of knowledge-intensive systems and services for the Semantic Web, knowledge management, e-business, natural language processing, intelligent information integration, personal digital assistance systems, and a variety of other related topics.
Diagnostics and Rehabilitation of Parkinson's Disease
Diagnostics and Rehabilitation of Parkinson's Disease presents the most current information pertaining to news-making topics relating to this disease, including etiology, early biomarkers for the diagnostics, novel methods to evaluate symptoms, research, multidisciplinary rehabilitation, new applications of brain imaging and invasive methods to the study of Parkinson's disease. Researchers have only recently begun to focus on the non-motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease, which are poorly recognized and inadequately treated by clinicians. The non-motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease have a significant impact on patient quality of life and mortality and include cognitive impairments, autonom...
The Semantic Web - ISWC 2015
The two-volume set LNCS 9366 and 9367 constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 14th International Semantic Web Conference, ISWC 2015, held in Bethlehem, PA, USA, in October 2015. The International Semantic Web Conference is the premier forum for Semantic Web research, where cutting edge scientific results and technological innovations are presented, where problems and solutions are discussed, and where the future of this vision is being developed. It brings together specialists in fields such as artificial intelligence, databases, social networks, distributed computing, Web engineering, information systems, human-computer interaction, natural language processing, and the social sciences. ...
The Routledge Handbook of Disability Sport Science
Disability sport science is a dynamic and rapidly evolving field, with advancements occurring across a wide range of research areas. However, the unique needs of athletes with disabilities – and the theoretical and practical knowledge required to support them – are still underrepresented in the literature. The book covers current research in a wide range of sport, exercise, training and health-related topic areas related to disability sport science and identifies future research directions. Key knowledge is gleaned from research within sport, exercise, rehabilitation and medicine and is brought together in one single resource, covering both current and future relevance for researchers, s...
The Semantic Web – ISWC 2014
The two-volume set LNCS 8796 and 8797 constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 13th International Semantic Web Conference, ISWC 2014, held in Riva del Garda, in October 2014. The International Semantic Web Conference is the premier forum for Semantic Web research, where cutting edge scientific results and technological innovations are presented, where problems and solutions are discussed, and where the future of this vision is being developed. It brings together specialists in fields such as artificial intelligence, databases, social networks, distributed computing, Web engineering, information systems, human-computer interaction, natural language processing, and the social sciences. Part 1 (LNCS 8796) contains a total of 38 papers which were presented in the research track. They were carefully reviewed and selected from 180 submissions. Part 2 (LNCS 8797) contains 15 papers from the 'semantic Web in use' track which were accepted from 46 submissions. In addition, it presents 16 contributions of the RBDS track and 6 papers of the doctoral consortium.
Calcined Clays for Sustainable Concrete
This book focuses on low-carbon sustainable cement production, performance, environmental efficiency, and other topics linked to calcined clays for sustainable concrete. It comprises select proceedings of the International Conference on Calcined Clays for Sustainable Concrete 2022, which was held at École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL)—Switzerland. The contents of this book focus on the influence of processing and clay mineralogy on the reactivity and rheology of calcined clay systems, Portland-calcined clay-limestone systems: hydration, durability, and performance, and calcined clay-alkali systems: hydration, durability, and performance, etc. This book can serve as a useful reference to researchers, academicians, and practitioners alike.
