Die moderne globalisierte Fertigung erfordert den Austausch eindeutiger und widerspruchsfreier Fertigungsunterlagen. Diese müssen überal gelesen und verstanden werden, um einen hohen Qualitätsanspruch gewährleisten zu können. Das ISO-Normenwerk hat hierzu das Konzept der Geometrischen Produktspezifizierung (GPS) geschaffen, welches auf CAD und die digitale Koordinatenmesstechnik ausgerichtet ist. Die GPS-Regeln geben vor, wie Bauteile in technischen Zeichnungen dimensionell, geometrisch und oberflächentechnisch zu beschreiben sind. Dafür wurden eine Vielzahl neuer Normen mit speziellen Kurzeichen, Symbolen und Regeln erlassen, die ein Konstrukteur anwenden muss, um bestimmte Produkteigenschaften zu erhalten. Die darauf beruhende Beschreibungssprache hat international eine große Bedeutung erlangt, da sie die Funktionalität, Kosten und Qualitätsfähigkeit von Produkten zu sichern hilft. Das Buch legt den aktuellen Normenstand im Zusammenhang mit der Erstellung richtiger Fertigungsunterlagen da. Es zeigt die zweckgerechte Anwendung der Symbolik, 2D- und 3D-CAD-Bemaßungs- und Tolerierungsregeln, Messgrundsätze und Oberflächenspezifizierung. An einer Vielzahl von Beispielen wird die richtige Übertragung und Anwendung gezeigt. Vor dem Hintergrund der Fertigung 4.0 ist das Buch hoch aktuell. Die Zielgruppen sind technische Produktdesigner/inen, Studierende an Fachhochschulen und Universitäten, Berufspraktiker im Maschinen- und Automobilbau.

Almost 50 years have passed since the famous papers of Hugo Rietveld from the late sixties where he describes a method for the refinement of crystal structures from neutron powder diffraction data. Soon after, the potential of the method for laboratory X-ray powder diffraction was discovered. Although the method is now widely accepted, there are still many pitfalls in the theoretical understanding and in practical daily use. This book closes the gap with a theoretical introduction for each chapter followed by a practical approach.The flexible macro type language of the Topas Rietveld software can be considered as the defacto standard.

This volume deals with two complementary topics. On one hand the book deals with the problem of determining the the probability distribution of a positive compound random variable, a problem which appears in the banking and insurance industries, in many areas of operational research and in reliability problems in the engineering sciences. On the other hand, the methodology proposed to solve such problems, which is based on an application of the maximum entropy method to invert the Laplace transform of the distributions, can be applied to many other problems. The book contains applications to a large variety of problems, including the problem of dependence of the sample data used to estimate empirically the Laplace transform of the random variable.

Dieses Buch behandelt die begrifflichen und sachlichen Grundlagen der Flugnavigation sowie die mathematisch-geometrischen Zusammenhänge mit zahlreichen Berechnungsbeispielen. Wegen des engen Bezugs zur Kartographie, welche die benötigten raum- und sachbezogenen Informationen für die thematischen Karten und Navigationsdatenbanken bereitstellt, sind die theoretischen Aspekte sowie der praktische Gebrauch und die Interpretation moderner Navigationskarten inhaltlicher Schwerpunkt. Weiterer Schwerpunkt ist die leistungsbasierte Navigation, wie diese in der heutigen Luftfahrtpraxis mithilfe integrierter bordseitiger Navigationssysteme in Verbindung mit den Ab- und Anflugverfahren realisiert wird. Hierbei werden Funk-, Trägheits- und Satellitennavigation kombiniert. Mithin widmet sich dieses Buch den Letzteren in einer angemessenen Detailtiefe sowie der Architektur der Bordsysteme am Beispiel der weltweit verbreiteten Airbus A320-Flugzeugfamilie. Des Weiteren werden relevante Aspekte der Flugsicherung einbezogen. Zielgruppe sind alljene, die ihre Ausbildung zum Piloten oder Fluglotsen mit einem Studium im Bereich der Luftfahrt kombinieren, Verfahrensplanende bei der Flugsicherung, Studierende des Verkehrsingenieurwesens oder der Geowissenschaften und alle, die sich für Navigationskarten und -systeme sowie die damit verbundenen aktuellen Technologien begeistern. Die vorliegende zweite Auflage ist gleichermaßen geeignet für Neueinsteiger und Fortgeschrittene, die Praxisbeispiele verhelfen zum "Ankommen". Zahlreiche hochwertige Abbildungen fördern die Anschaulichkeit, großer Wert wird auf Allgemeinverständlichkeit gelegt bei dennoch mathematischer Fundierung. Das Buchkonzept mit dem Schwerpunkt auf aktueller Thematik bindet die traditionellen Navigationssysteme jedoch soweit ein, dass die Leserinnen und Leser Kenntnisse erwerben, welche ihnen dazu verhelfen, oben genannte Systeme als alleinige Navigationsmittel anwenden zu können. Auch werden die vom Luftfahrtbundesamt für die Ausbildung zum Verkehrsflugzeugführer im Fach Navigation geforderten Inhalte im Wesentlichen abgedeckt.

The present book is an introduction to the philosophy of mathematics. It asks philosophical questions concerning fundamental concepts, constructions and methods - this is done from the standpoint of mathematical research and teaching. It looks for answers both in mathematics and in the philosophy of mathematics from their beginnings till today. The reference point of the considerations is the introducing of the reals in the 19th century that marked an epochal turn in the foundations of mathematics. In the book problems connected with the concept of a number, with the infinity, the continuum and the infinitely small, with the applicability of mathematics as well as with sets, logic, provability and truth and with the axiomatic approach to mathematics are considered. In Chapter 6 the meaning of infinitesimals to mathematics and to the elements of analysis is presented. The authors of the present book are mathematicians. Their aim is to introduce mathematicians and teachers of mathematics as well as students into the philosophy of mathematics. The book is suitable also for professional philosophers as well as for students of philosophy, just because it approaches philosophy from the side of mathematics. The knowledge of mathematics needed to understand the text is elementary. Reports on historical conceptions. Thinking about today's mathematical doing and thinking. Recent developments. Based on the third, revised German edition. For mathematicians - students, teachers, researchers and lecturers - and readersinterested in mathematics and philosophy. a Contents On the way to the reals On the history of the philosophy of mathematics On fundamental questions of the philosophy of mathematics Sets and set theories Axiomatic approach and logic Thinking and calculating infinitesimally - First nonstandard steps Retrospection
