The advanced Variable Boundary aspect process (CVBEM) has emerged as a brand new and potent modeling process within the box of computational mechanics and hydraulics. The CVBEM is a generalization of the Cauchy vital formulation right into a boundary fundamental equation procedure. The version­ ing technique via boundary integration, using complicated variables for two-dimensional strength difficulties, and the adaptability to now-popular microcomputers are one of the elements that make this system effortless to benefit, uncomplicated to function, functional for modeling, and effective in simulating numerous actual strategies. a few of the CVBEM options and notions will be derived from the Analytic functionality technique (AFM) awarded in van der Veer (1978). The AFM served because the start line for the generalization of the CVBEM thought which used to be built in the course of the first author's study engagement (1979 via 1981) on the collage of California, Irvine. the expansion and enlargement of the CVBEM have been thus nurtured on the U. S. Geological Survey, the place willing curiosity and masses job in numerical modeling and computational mechanics-and-hydraulics are well-known. Inclusion of the CVBEM learn application in Survey's computational-hydraulics initiatives, brings the modeling researcher extra uniform elements of numerical arithmetic in engineering and clinical difficulties, let alone its (CVBEM) practicality and value within the hydrologic investigations. This booklet is meant to introduce the CVBEM to engineers and scientists with its easy idea, underlying arithmetic, machine set of rules, blunders research schemes, version adjustment tactics, and alertness examples.

Der Klimawandel im Zeitalter technischer Reproduzierbarkeit: Climate Engineering zwischen Risiko und Praxis

​Hannes Fernow führt interdisziplinär in das Thema weather Engineering ein. Er integriert im Rahmen einer Politischen Hermeneutik wissenschaftstheoretische, technikphilosophische und umweltethische Argumente in historisch tradierte Risiko- und Naturverständnisse und zeigt, dass die Folgen von technologischen Klimaveränderungen nicht verlässlich vorhersagbar sind.
