Surgery for Sleep-Disordered Breathing
In recent years, the spectrum of therapy for sleep-related breathing disorders has been immensely enriched by numerous innovative surgical procedures and techniques. Deciding which therapy is most appropriate for which patient is often a difficult matter, especially in light of the non-surgical alternatives. This book analyses the efficiency of the recognised surgical procedures; it is rooted in evidence-based medicine. Indications, techniques, complications, and specific follow-up treatments in the realm of sleep medicine have been compiled in the form of a primer. The authors are directors of one of the largest otolaryngological sleep laboratories in the world and perform approximately 1,500 surgical sleep medicine procedures per year. The complete surgical and sleep medicine know-how of the authors, as well as the experience of numerous international courses on sleep surgery, have been incorporated into this volume. It is therefore the fundamental textbook for sleep medicine surgeons.
Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering : Physics and Applications
Almost 30 years after the first reports on surface-enhanced Raman signals, the phenomenon of surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) is now well established. Yet, explaining the enhancement of a spectroscopic signal by fouteen orders of magnitude continues to attract the attention of physicists and chemists alike. And, at the same time and rapidly growing, SERS is becoming a very useful spectroscopic tool with exciting applications in many fields. SERS gained particular interest after single-molecule Raman spectroscopy had been demonstrated. This bookl summarizes and discusses present theoretical approaches that explain the phenomenon of SERS and reports on new and exciting experiments and applications of the fascinating spectroscopic effect.
Surface Effects in Magnetic Nanoparticles
The book is aimed to provide an overview of progress in the understanding of surface properties and surface driven effects in magnetic nanoparticles through recent results of different modelling, simulation and experimental investigations. Its intended audience is Ph.D. students and researchers in materials science. Magnetic nanoparticles have been the subject of continuous and growing interest, from both fundamental and technological points of view, in the last 50 years, since the pionering work of Louis Niel. Nanoparticles are unique physical objects with remarkable magnetic properties which differ greatly from their parent massive materials. They are due to finite size effects of the magnetic core, related to the reduced number of spins cooperatively linked within the particle, and to surface and interface effects, related to the lack of coordination for the surface ions, inducing broken exchange bonds which can result in frustration and spin disorder.

SUPERSUIT : Poetic Interventions in Urban Spaces
The increasing accumulation of people in historyless living machines, the challenges posed by migration and a lack of space update the need for new thinking and action in public spaces. SUPERSUIT is an interdisciplinary experiment on the border between human and space. It is a tool for poetic interventions in different urban situations, invites participation and questions the relationship between people, space and city in a sensual way. As a marker of public space, the spontaneously emerging forms of the SUPERSUIT respond directly to the parameters of the urban context. SUPERSUIT enables the change of current design processes and the conception of new human-material constellations via performative interventions
Superconductivity in Complex Systems
In this volume of the Springer Series “Structure and Bonding” superconductivity in unconventional systems is reviewed with emphasis on cuprate supercon-ductors, however one additional contribution to the superconductivity of alka-li-doped fullerides A3C60has also been included. Even though in this latter com-pound the evidence for phonon mediated pairing is well manifested, the prob-lem to be solved lies in the fact that the Coulomb repulsion is of the same orderof magnitude as the vibronic energy, whereas the A2C60and A4C60 are insula-tors, the A3C60is a superconductor. Treating both energy scales on the samefooting, an interesting interplay between Coulomb and phonon contributionsresults which enables electron (hole) pairing locally.
Substance abuse and addiction
Illicit drug abuse has reached an epidemic level in the world. Drug overdose has become the leading cause of injury-related deaths since 2008 due to the recent surge of opioid overdose by heroin, controlled prescription drugs, and normethadones synthetic opioids. Synthetic designer drugs such as synthetic cathinone (“bath salts”) and synthetic cannabinoids (“Spice” and “K2”) continue to emerge and attract recreational users. This research is going to tackle drug abuse by shedding the light on Syrian prisoners Over the past 20 years or so, the drug misuse scenario has seen the emergence of both prescription-only and over-the-counter medications being reported as ingested for recreational purposes.

Structural Sensitivity Analysis and Optimization 2 : Nonlinear Systems and Applications
Concerns the relationship between design variables available to the design engineer and structural responses determined by the laws of mechanics. The dependence of response measures such as displacement, stress, strain, natural frequency, buckling load, acoustic response, frequency response, noise-vibration-harshness (NVH), thermo-elastic response, and fatigue life on the material property, sizing, component shape, and configuration design variables is defined through the energy principles (governing equations) of structural mechanics. In this 2-volume set, first- and second- order design sensitivity analyses are presented for static and dynamics responses of both linear and nonlinear elastic structural systems, including elasto-plastic and frictional contact problems.
Stress-testing bank during the COVID-19 pandemic : Comparative study in BEMO bank Saudi Fransi in Syria
The study aims to discuss the importance of liquidity and how to manage it for banks and to identify the risks to which the bank's liquidity may be exposed, in addition to conducting one of the tests that can reveal the risks that can be faced. To achieve the above-mentioned objectives, the study examined the hypotheses through the data of BEMO BANK SAUDI FRANSI, and this test was conducted during the years 2019 and 2020. The stress test was used as one of the effective tests in order to determine whether the bank is able to meet deposit withdrawal obligations during five consecutive days. The test was applied to 2019 and 2020 to compare between them. After applying the stress test on 2019 and 2020, the following conclusion was reached: BEMO BANK SAUDI FRANSI failed during 2019 and 2020 in the stress test because it does not have sufficient liquidity to meet its deposit withdrawal obligations. Although the bank succeeded in testing on the first day of both years, it failed in the rest of the news days in 2019 and 2020
Strategy, Structure and Performance in a Transition Economy : An Institutional Perspective on Configurations in Russia
Being one of the biggest transition markets, Russia plays an increasing role within the global economy. Non-Russian firms are expanding into Russia in order to exploit the abundant growth opportunities. Simultaneously they face stronger competition in their home markets due to the entrance of global Russian players which try to explore opportunities abroad.Based on the results of 177 survey responses, Tobias Weigl shows that the simple transfer of managerial and organizational skills, techniques, values and culture from developed countries to Russia is a false assumption among academics and practitioners. While executives from developed markets are driven by a rational economic model, which includes objective rules and arm’s length transaction structures, successful businesses in Russia need to incorporate the remaining influence of collectivism, paternalism and ‘blat’. Thus, successfully conducting business in Russia is based on network capitalism and relationships that co-exist within the pervasive environment of the Russian state.
Strategies in Markets for Experience and Credence Goods
The quality and characteristics of industrial and consumption goods are often not revealed until after consumption. However, the decision to buy these products must be made before buying. Many strategies and instruments for signalling and screening have been developed in the economic world in order to overcome potential market failure due to insufficient quality detection. In many situations, efficient incentives and quality revelation are given to the market players by contracts that structure the process and payments of the transaction. Additionally, market forces lead to the emergence of new market players as intermediaries. They provide information about the quality of the products by comparing them and reveal credible signs concerning the relative quality valuation of products.
Strategic Trading in Illiquid Markets
The Area of Research and the Object of Investigation In this thesis we will investigate trading strategies in illiquid markets from a market microstructure perspective. Market microstructure is the academic term for the branch of financial economics that investigates trading and the organization of security markets, Historically, exchanges evolved as a location, where those interested in buy ing or selling securities could meet physically to transact. Thus, traditionally security trading was organized on exchange floors, where so-called dealers arranged all trades and provided liquidity by quoting prices at which they were willing buy or sell. Consequently, the initial surge of the market mi crostructure literature focused predominantly on this type of market design, which is often referred to as quote-driven. Nowadays, the interest is shifting towards order-driven markets. Beginning with the Toronto Stock Exchange in the mid 1970s and increasing in fre quency and scope, this market structure has emerged as the preeminent form of security trading worldwide. In order-driven markets, exchanges arrange trades by matching public orders, often by employing automatic execution systems. Introduction A major difference between a quote-driven and an order-driven market arises from the transparency pre- and post-trade.
