    • English
    The Clinics Collections titles take a multidisciplinary approach to today’s practice of medicine, selecting the most recent and relevant articles from the Clinics series and combining them into a single source of information on a focused topic. Articles are chosen from multiple Clinics to highlight the range of specialties covering major medical issues, delivering the information needed for successful interdisciplinary teamwork and effective patient care. Written from a variety of medical perspectives, these articles offer deeper insight into how each specialty cares for its patients and provide a unique entry into sharing best concepts for the entire medical team. Clinics Collections: Precision Medicine draws from Elsevier’s Clinics Review Articles database to provide today’s medical teams with practical clinical advice and insights on this timely medical model. It guides readers on how to apply current primary research findings to everyday practice, keep up with new and improved treatment methods, and improve patient outcomes..

  • Vibration Fatigue by Spectral Methods

    From Structural Dynamics to Fatigue Damage – Theory and Experiments
    • 1st Edition
    • Janko Slavič + 4 more
    • English
    Vibration Fatigue by Spectral Methods relates the structural dynamics theory to the high-cycle vibration fatigue. The book begins with structural dynamics theory and relates the uniaxial and multiaxial vibration fatigue to the underlying structural dynamics and signal processing theory. Organized in two parts, part I gives the theoretical background and part II the selected experimental research. The time- and frequency- domain aspects of signal processing in general, related to structural dynamics and counting methods are covered in detail. It also covers all the underlying theory in structural dynamics, signal processing, uniaxial & multiaxial fatigue; including non-Gaussianity and non-stationarity. Finally, it provides the latest research on multiaxial vibration fatigue and the non-stationarity and non-Gaussianity effects. This book is for engineers, graduate students, researchers and industry professionals working in the field of structural durability under random loading and vibrations and also those dealing with fatigue of materials and constructions.

  • Approaches to the Purification, Analysis and Characterization of Antibody-Based Therapeutics

    • 1st Edition
    • Allan Matte
    • English
    Approaches to the Purification, Analysis and Characterization of Antibody-Based Therapeutics provides the interested and informed reader with an overview of current approaches, strategies and considerations relating to the purification, analytics and characterization of therapeutic antibodies and related molecules. While there are obviously other books published in and around this subject area, they seem to be either older (c.a. year 2000 publication date) or are more limited in scope. The book will include an extensive bibliography of the published literature in the respective areas covered. It is not, however, intended to be a how-to methods book.
