Street Fights in Copenhagen - Jason (san Francisco State University Henderson - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Street Fights in Copenhagen - Jason (san Francisco State University Henderson - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

With 29 percent of all trips made by bicycle, Copenhagen is considered a model of green transport. This book considers the underlying political conditions that enabled cycling to appeal to such a wide range of citizens in Copenhagen and asks how this can be replicated elsewhere. Despite Copenhagen’s global reputation, its success has been a result of a long political struggle and is far from completely secure. Car use in Denmark is increasing, including in Copenhagen''s suburbs, and new developments in Copenhagen include more parking for cars. There is a political tension in Copenhagen over the spaces for cycling, the car, and public transit. In considering examples of backlashes and conflicts over street space in Copenhagen, this book argues that the kinds of debates happening in Copenhagen are very similar to the debates regularly occurring in cities throughout the world. This makes Copenhagen more, not less, comparable to many cities around the world, including cities in the United States. This book will appeal to upper-level undergraduates and graduates in urban geography, city planning, transportation, environmental studies, as well as transportation advocates, urban policy-makers, and anyone concerned about climate change and looking to identify paths forward in their own cities and localities.

The Anatomy House in Copenhagen - Thomas Bartholin - Bog - Museum Tusculanum - Plusbog.dk

The Anatomy House in Copenhagen - Thomas Bartholin - Bog - Museum Tusculanum - Plusbog.dk

In 1644 the University of Copenhagen established its first anatomical theatre. In addition to the instruction of students, research was also carried out in the Anatomy House. Here Thomas Bartholin, the Professor of Anatomy, demonstrated the thoraic duct and later the lymphatic vessels in a human being, an achievement that has brought him fame. In 1662 Thomas Bartholin published A Short Description of the Anatomy House in Copenhagen, which meticulously describes the layout of the Anatomy House alongside the first eighteen years of its history. This volume presents Bartholin's book for the first time in English, as well as the original Latin text, enabling a broader audience to draw on its various and detailed accounts. A commentary and an introduction as well as rich body of illustrations make this edition a valuable resource for historians of medicine. Niels W. Bruun is a Senior Research Fellow at the Royal Library Copenhagen.

The Copenhagen Network - Alexei Kojevnikov - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Plusbog.dk

The Copenhagen Network - Alexei Kojevnikov - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Plusbog.dk

This book is a historical analysis of the quantum mechanical revolution and the emergence of a new discipline from the perspective, not of a professor, but of a recent or actual Ph.D. student just embarking on an uncertain academic career in economically hard times. Quantum mechanics exploded on to the intellectual scene between 1925 and 1927, with more than 200 publications across the world, the majority of them authored by young scientists under the age of 30, graduate students or postdoctoral fellows. The resulting theory was a collective product that no single authority could claim, but it had a major geographical nod - the Copenhagen Institute of Theoretical Physics - where most of the informal, pre-published exchange of ideas occurred and where every participant of the new community aspired to visit. A rare combination of circumstances and resources - political, diplomatic, financial, and intellectual - allowed Niels Bohr to establish this "Mecca" of quantum theory outside of traditional and more powerful centres of science. Transitory international postdoctoral fellows, rather than established professors, developed a culture of research that became the source of major innovations in the field. Temporary assistantships, postdoctoral positions, and their equivalents were the chief mode of existence for young academics during the period of economic crisis and post-WWI international tensions. Insecure career trajectories and unpredictable moves through non-stable temporary positions contributed to their general outlook and interpretations of the emerging theory of quantum mechanics. This book is part of a four-volume collection addressing the beginnings of quantum physics research at the major European centres of Göttingen, Copenhagen, Berlin, and Munich; these works emerged from an expansive study on the quantum revolution as a major transformation of physical knowledge undertaken by the Max Planck Institute for the History of Science and the Fritz Haber Institute (2006-2012).

The Copenhagen Conspiracy - David (school Of Electrical Ferry - Bog - Pan Stanford Publishing Pte Ltd - Plusbog.dk

The Copenhagen Conspiracy - David (school Of Electrical Ferry - Bog - Pan Stanford Publishing Pte Ltd - Plusbog.dk

At the close of the nineteenth century, we stood on the threshold of one of the greatest periods of science, in which the entire world and understanding of science would be shaken to the core and greatly modified. This explosion of knowledge led ultimately to that same information revolution that we live in today. Planck and Einstein showed that light was not continuous but made of small corpuscles that today we call photons. Einstein changed the understanding of mechanics with his theory of relativity: airplanes became conceivable; radio and television blossomed; and the microelectronics industry, which drives most of modern technology, came into being. New areas of science were greatly expanded and developed, and one of these was quantum mechanics, which is the story to be told here. Yet, the development of quantum mechanics and the leadership of Niels Bohr have distorted the understanding of quantum mechanics in a strange way. There are some who would say that Bohr set back the real understanding of quantum mechanics by half a century. I believe they underestimate his role, and it may be something more like a full century. Whether we call it the Copenhagen interpretation, or the Copenhagen orthodoxy , it is the how for the continuing mysticism provided by Mach that is still remaining in quantum mechanics. It is not the why . Why it perseveres and why it was forced on the field in the first place is an important perception to be studied. In this book, I want to trace the development of quantum mechanics and try to uncover the why .

Housing Copenhagen - Chiara Monterumisi - Bog - Presses Polytechniques et Universitaires Romandes - Plusbog.dk

Housing Copenhagen - Chiara Monterumisi - Bog - Presses Polytechniques et Universitaires Romandes - Plusbog.dk

A new translation of a leading architect’s magnum opus. The book offers for the first time the translation of two surveys conducted by the leading Danish modern architect Kay Fisker and the students of his classes. The two texts are reproduced as a facsimile edition, so the scope has maintained the original layout along with critical examinations, diagrams, and an impressive quantity of comparative drawings. The book is not solely the translation of the two analyses; it delves into the main features of Fisker’s works of architecture and the cultural context within which the explorations on housing types were conducted at the School of Architecture of the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts. The systematic approach, the richness of selected examples, as well as the analytic content, make this book valuable beyond its historic and geographic limits. Due to the topical interest in the field of housing studies, the translation of Copenhagen Housing Types (1936) and Row-House Types (1941) will provide students and professionals a clear and useful instrument for comprehending the evolution of the cities, as well as for housing design from an architectural and urban perspective.

Six Degrees of Copenhagen - Jens Juul - Bog - BOOK LAB ApS - Plusbog.dk

Six Degrees of Copenhagen - Jens Juul - Bog - BOOK LAB ApS - Plusbog.dk

Six Degrees of Copenhagen er en fotografisk portrætserie, som fotograf Jens Juul har arbejdet på de seneste 10 år. Projektets og bogens titel refererer til Six Degrees of Separation, som er teorien om, at alle mennesker er forbundet med hinanden gennem deres netværk og aldrig er mere end seks led væk fra nogen her på jorden. Og med det menneskelige netværk som arbejdsmetode, har ideen været at trække menneskelige forbindelseslinjer gennem København. De portrætterede var for fotografen ukendte personer. Efterfølgende har den portrætterede anbefalet en person fra egen bekendtskabskreds, hvorved portrætstafetten er blevet givet videre. Ved at lade de portrætterede overdrage stafetten er processen og resultatet blevet manipuleret så lidt som muligt. Projektet viser, at du ikke behøver rejse for at skildre dramaet og det ukendte. Det er lige her – ved siden af dig og inde hos naboen. Det stille drama, det svære liv, den ufattelige lykke. Hvor fortroligheden i det anonyme giver plads til at være usikker og sårbar. Alle portrætterne er et privat møde, et møde med et menneske, hvor vi som beskuer bliver lukket ind hos mennesker fra forskellige samfundslag i deres private hjem, alle med forskellige værdisæt og livsforståelser og derigennem viser den mangfoldighed, som er en del af alle indbyggernes omgangskreds. Projektet har vundet store internationale Priser, som fx Magnum Photography Awards, Sony Photography Award og International Photographer of the Year (IPOTY). Senest har værker fra serien vundet hovedprisen i BBA Photography Prize. Papir: 150 gr. arctic volume white

Innovation in City Governments - Lykke Margot (university Of Copenhagen Ricard - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Innovation in City Governments - Lykke Margot (university Of Copenhagen Ricard - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Innovation has become an important focus for governments around the world over the last decade, with greater pressure on governments to do more with less, and expanding community expectations. Some are now calling this ‘social innovation’ – innovation that is related to creating new services that have value for stakeholders (such as citizens) in terms of the social and political outcomes they produce. Innovation in City Governments: Structures, Networks, and Leadership establishes an analytical framework of innovation capacity based on three dimensions: 1) 1) Structure - national governance and traditions, the local socioeconomic context, and the municipal structure 1) 1) 1) Networks – interpersonal connections inside and outside the organization 1) 1) 1) Leadership – the qualities and capabilities of senior individuals within the organization. 1) Each of these are analysed using data from a comparative EU research project in Copenhagen, Barcelona and Rotterdam. The book provides major new insights on how structures, networks and leadership in city governments shape the social innovation capacity of cities. It provides ground-breaking analyses of how governance structures and local socio-economic challenges, are related to the innovations introduced by these cities. The volume maps and analyses the social networks of the three cities and examines boundary spanning within and outside of the cities. It also examines what leadership qualities are important for innovation. Innovation in City Governments: Structures, Networks, and Leadership combines an original analytical approach with comparative empirical work, to generate a novel perspective on the social innovation capacity of cities and is critical reading for academics, students and policy makers alike in the fields of Public Management, Public Administration, Local Government, Policy, Innovation and Leadership.

Tradition - - Bog - Museum Tusculanums Forlag - Plusbog.dk

This lavishly illustrated book takes readers from prehistoric Santorini to Late Antique Rome to analyze the role of tradition in the transmission of culture and the creation, maintenance, and negotiation of identity in the ancient world. Covering a wide array of subjects, including cultic rituals and the use of magical objects and symbols, votive traditions in Greek sanctuaries, funerary portraits, and Iron Age pottery, Tradition reveals how culture inheres in each, and how actions and objects alike play a role in culture’s continuation and change. With its thoroughly interdisciplinary approach, Tradition breaks new ground in studies of the classical and ancient world. Jane Fejfer is associate professor of archaeology at the University of Copenhagen. Mette Moltesen is curator of ancient sculpture at Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek in Copenhagen. Annette Rathje is associate professor of classical archaeology at the University of Copenhagen.

Nonlinear Option Pricing - Pierre Henry Labordere - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Nonlinear Option Pricing - Pierre Henry Labordere - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

New Tools to Solve Your Option Pricing Problems For nonlinear PDEs encountered in quantitative finance, advanced probabilistic methods are needed to address dimensionality issues. Written by two leaders in quantitative research—including Risk magazine’s 2013 Quant of the Year— Nonlinear Option Pricing compares various numerical methods for solving high-dimensional nonlinear problems arising in option pricing. Designed for practitioners, it is the first authored book to discuss nonlinear Black-Scholes PDEs and compare the efficiency of many different methods. Real-World Solutions for Quantitative Analysts The book helps quants develop both their analytical and numerical expertise. It focuses on general mathematical tools rather than specific financial questions so that readers can easily use the tools to solve their own nonlinear problems. The authors build intuition through numerous real-world examples of numerical implementation. Although the focus is on ideas and numerical examples, the authors introduce relevant mathematical notions and important results and proofs. The book also covers several original approaches, including regression methods and dual methods for pricing chooser options, Monte Carlo approaches for pricing in the uncertain volatility model and the uncertain lapse and mortality model, the Markovian projection method and the particle method for calibrating local stochastic volatility models to market prices of vanilla options with/without stochastic interest rates, the a + b¿ technique for building local correlation models that calibrate to market prices of vanilla options on a basket, and a new stochastic representation of nonlinear PDE solutions based on marked branching diffusions.

Introduction to Graph Neural Networks - Zhiyuan Liu - Bog - Springer International Publishing AG - Plusbog.dk

Introduction to Graph Neural Networks - Zhiyuan Liu - Bog - Springer International Publishing AG - Plusbog.dk

Graphs are useful data structures in complex real-life applications such as modeling physical systems, learning molecular fingerprints, controlling traffic networks, and recommending friends in social networks. However, these tasks require dealing with non-Euclidean graph data that contains rich relational information between elements and cannot be well handled by traditional deep learning models (e.g., convolutional neural networks (CNNs) or recurrent neural networks (RNNs)). Nodes in graphs usually contain useful feature information that cannot be well addressed in most unsupervised representation learning methods (e.g., network embedding methods). Graph neural networks (GNNs) are proposed to combine the feature information and the graph structure to learn better representations on graphs via feature propagation and aggregation. Due to its convincing performance and high interpretability, GNN has recently become a widely applied graph analysis tool. This book provides a comprehensive introduction to the basic concepts, models, and applications of graph neural networks. It starts with the introduction of the vanilla GNN model. Then several variants of the vanilla model are introduced such as graph convolutional networks, graph recurrent networks, graph attention networks, graph residual networks, and several general frameworks. Variants for different graph types and advanced training methods are also included. As for the applications of GNNs, the book categorizes them into structural, non-structural, and other scenarios, and then it introduces several typical models on solving these tasks. Finally, the closing chapters provide GNN open resources and the outlook of several future directions.
