The purpose of this work is to offer a brief survey of some of the mathematical methods useful to bridge different levels of description, i.e. from the set-up of classical kinetic theory of gases to hydrodynamics. Most of the standard mathematical techniques, in this field, stem from the seminal Chapman–Enskog expansion, which constitutes an important ...

Respiration Measurements in Small Scale
Analytical Biochemistry, 1993The design and operation of a small (< 40 microliters) reaction vessel with membrane-covered oxygen electrode is described. The equipment's productivity and experimental versatility is similar to that of equipment using 100 times more biological material.

In 1900, the majority of India’s industrial workers were in industries that did not use either machinery or large factories. This chapter describes their experience. Traditional handicrafts formed a large part of this set. According to a popular interpretation, the handicrafts declined owing to competition from machine-made goods imported from Britain.

Small-scale software components
ACM SIGSOFT Software Engineering Notes, 1979An empirical study to identify standardizable small-scale software components from existing source code is described. The rationale for such an effort is presented, followed by a description of the specific study performed by the author. Component identification methods are presented along with preliminary findings.

2015 IEEE 2nd International Conference on Cyber Security and Cloud Computing, 2015
The nature of cyberspace continues to evolve, and so do the associated threats. The focus of the cyber security industry is typically (and understandably) on high-value assets. However, there is a large user group intersecting with corporate and government IT users, which lacks the resources -- in terms of finance, time and/or knowledge -- to deal with

A small scale viscometer based on IPMCs
IFAC Proceedings Volumes, 2009Abstract Abstract The vibrational characteristics of a cantilever beam are well known to depend strongly on the fluid in which the beam is immersed. In this paper, we exploit this property to obtain a small scale viscometer, by using an IPMC (Ionic Polymer Metal Composites) based beam.

Soft Actuators for Small‐Scale Robotics
Advanced Materials, 2016This review comprises a detailed survey of ongoing methodologies for soft actuators, highlighting approaches suitable for nanometer‐ to centimeter‐scale robotic applications. Soft robots present a special design challenge in that their actuation and sensing mechanisms are often highly integrated with the robot body and overall functionality.

Small-Scale Robotics : An Introduction
2014The term small-scale robotics describes a wide variety of miniature robotic systems, ranging from millimeter sized devices down to autonomous mobile systems with dimensions measured in nanometers. Unified by the common goal of enabling applications that require tiny mobile robots, research in small-scaled robotics has produced a variety of novel ...

This study argues that micro relations matter in peacekeeping. Asking what makes the implementation of peacekeeping interventions complex and how complexity is resolved, I find that formal, contractual mechanisms only rarely effectively reduce complexity – and that micro relations fill this gap. Micro relations are personal relationships resulting from
