Criminal Law: An Integrated Approach

description: Criminal law seems familiar, but the apparent familiarity can be misleading. Media or cultural depictions of criminal law are often inaccurate and these depictions won’t teach you to practice law or to pass a bar exam. This book does pursue those goals, and others. It seeks to give you an understanding of American criminal law that will be useful whether you practice in this field or a different area of law, and indeed, an understanding that will be useful even if you do not practice law at all.

description: The purposes of tort law have expanded over the centuries of its evolution. In its earliest forms in England in the 12th century, tort claims provided a means of ordering civil society and keeping the peace. By defining certain conduct as wrongful and enabling a means of redress for harms caused by deviations from that standard, tort law reflected and helped shape social behavior and expectations.

description:
This book is an introductory text on business law targeted for use in an undergraduate or graduate business school setting. It covers the major areas of law typically taught in a legal environment for business course. This book covers these principles with a simple premise: law for attorneys focuses on finding legal answers, while law for managers focuses on *risk management*. That is, attorneys are trained to find the right legal answer to a question, or to argue that a certain answer ought to be the right one. Managers face a very different question. A company's course of action will have certain probabilities of various legal consequences which need to be weighed. In that sense, decisions with legal repercussions are like any decision faced by a manager.

The goal of this text is to (1) teach students enough substantive law that they can assess those probabilities, (2) teach students enough procedural law and terminology that they can communicate intelligibly with attorneys, and (3) give a framework and practice in decisionmaking with regard to legal consequences. Note: a Second Edition is available on Pressbooks, at https://boisestate.pressbooks.pub/buslaw2e/.

Spanish Conversation

description:
Spanish Conversation is designed to facilitate opportunities for Spanish students to grow their interpretive and interpersonal communication skills which are necessary for Spanish conversation. This textbook is appropriate for Spanish majors and minors who fall within the range of intermediate-mid to advanced-low oral proficiency. The book is grounded in a theoretical framework in frequency and usage-based linguistics which prioritizes practice and application of the most frequent words and Spanish used in context so that students can participate in real-world tasks in the Spanish-speaking world. The textbook integrates a wide variety of materials, including podcasts, videos, readings, and realia. These expose students to the rich cultural and linguistic diversity representative of the Spanish-speaking world.

Teachers using this textbook will also have access to rubrics and formative and summative assessments based largely on an Integrated Performance Assessment model but given the scope of the course (Spanish conversation), assessments are limited to the interpretive and interpersonal modes of communication, only.

Produced in partnership with Boise State University’s eCampus Center through the Open Education Development Series.

description: This book is designed to integrate concepts of responsible management with the evolving discourse around corporate social responsibility (CSR), environmental, social, and governance (ESG) issues and sustainability, I bring in current perspectives including that of the United Nations and its Sustainable Development Goals. In this book I also consider indigenous (First Nations, Inuit, and Metis) perspective and equity, diversity, and inclusivity (EDI) issues. The book works as a roadmap to a journey of responsible management and includes links and references to current research articles and websites with topical examples, learning outcomes, key take-aways, reflective questions, and suggested additional readings. The textbook is organized into eleven chapters within four sections, each addressing a particular part of the learning journey: starting the journey, societal integration of responsible management, responsible management and business considerations, sustainability and sustainable development. Instructors can choose to present each chapter according to their particular curricular focus and course learning outcomes over a 6, 8, or 12 week semester. Each chapter is organized so that they can be read on their own or supplemented by the referenced or suggested readings. Instructors can use the suggested reflective questions or create their own based on the topical material. In the end, the learning journey starts and ends with the learner and so the intent of this book is to make it an accessible and relevant journey considering the many wicked problems that are found today.

description: This text is a collection of subjects that comprise the basics of Organic Agriculture from a Canadian perspective.  The intention is to continue to add chapters and to update and add examples, posters or developments to existing chapters. The 2nd year university students who wrote each chapter wanted a living text that would suit their learning needs. The text begins with introductory chapters on the role and basic ideas in society about Organic Agriculture. Further chapters delve into the salient details of soils, microbiology, and plant health.  No students have tried writing on Pasture or the importance of the mix of animals and plants yet, but hopefully, a student will come forward. There was much interest from the students on the biodiversity chapters, which were well done, and also on the social side of Organics. The text is directed to early post secondary courses in agriculture and also to the organic community.

De vraagstukken zijn afkomstig uit oude vraagstukkenbundels en uit recente tentamens. Wij hebben de formulering van veel van deze vraagstukken herzien.
Vooral door de vraagstukken in meerdere onderdelen te splitsen, hopen we aan te geven dat een stapsgewijze aanpak, veelal gebaseerd op één of meer balansen, een bruikbaar recept voor het oplossen van de opgaven is. Overigens is deze splitsing bij lang niet alle opgaven doorgevoerd om aan studenten de gelegenheid te geven juist dit moeilijke facet zelf te oefenen.

description:
Het boek Werktuigkundige Systemen is een compacte inleiding op het systeemdenken in de werktuigbouwkunde, met nadruk op inzicht en grafische methoden, gelardeerd met prikkelende werkingsprincipes en constructie-elementen. Velen merken dat ze nog lang nadat ze het vak gedaan hebben dit boek als naslagwerk gebruiken en het steeds meer gaan waarderen, ook omdat het boek de basis legt voor veel vervolgvakken en projecten.
Het boek is al jarenlang in gebruik bij eerstejaars studenten Werktuigbouwkunde aan de TU Delft. Diverse docenten gebruiken het bij vakken of ontwerpprojecten.
De oorsprong van dit boek in de tachtiger jaren is een college geweest, waarin op eenvoudige wijze de werking van bestaande apparaten en machines werd geanalyseerd. In een later stadium is deze stof uitgebreid met een aantal constructieve bijzonderheden. Daarbij heeft de systeemleer en de modelvorming een belangrijke basis gevormd.
Meer uitgebreid: De fundamentele principes bij ontwerpen komen in dit boek ‘Werktuigkundige Systemen’ naar voren. Zo wordt de systeemleer toegepast op werktuigkundige constructies en wordt in het hoofdstuk over modelvorming de weg aangegeven om de complexe fysische werkelijkheid om te zetten in een overzichtelijk werkingsinzicht. Ook onder meer mechanische versterkers komen aan bod en is een hoofdstuk gewijd aan de belangrijke begrippen sterkte en stijfheid.  Er is ruim aandacht gegeven aan wrijving en weerstand, alsmede aan de middelen om deze te vergroten of te verkleinen. Omdat veren tot de essentiële werktuigonderdelen behoren is een hoofdstuk gewijd aan de toepassing van veren in een ontwerp. Hier is het belangrijke begrip voorspanning behandeld. Het onderwerp Aandrijving  wordt behandeld en daarin wordt aangegeven op welke wijze een motor met een last moet worden gekoppeld. Het hoofdstuk over comparalogie laat de problemen zien bij het verkleinen of vergroten van reeds bestaande constructies en bij de vaak noodzakelijke modelproeven. Het hoofdstuk over energie ten slotte, geeft een inleiding in de ‘warme werktuigbouwkunde’. Hierin is een technologisch rendement beschreven dat aangeeft in welke mate een machine warmtetechnisch goed is geconstrueerd.
Dit boek kan gebruikt worden bij verschillende soorten technisch hoger onderwijs; zowel door het globale overzicht van de gehele werktuigbouwkunde, de introductie van systeemleer en modelvorming, als door de specialistische behandeling van enkele bijzondere onderwerpen.

description: Policy of Multi-Actor Systems is an introduction into the art of craft of problem exploration and problem structuring. It positions policy analysis as a scientific discipline focused on systems analysis in a multi-actor context to support better informed decision-making. The approach presented in this book is considered to be the cornerstone of the curricula of the Faculty of Technology, Policy and Management of Delft University of Technology and underlies the research on (the governance of) socio-technical systems. Systems thinking applied in a multi-actor environment and its inherent multi-disciplinary character is what makes this work stand out from traditional hard- and soft systems approaches. The core of the book is dedicated to systems analysis, actor- or stakeholder-analysis and discusses methods for dealing with uncertainty. These analytical activities combined lead to a rich problem description and to plans for further research. Due to the stepwise approach this book serves as a basis for any problem analysis both for our bachelor and master students, our alumni worldwide and any interested practitioners.

Many people consider analog electronic circuit design complex. This is because designers can achieve the desired performance of a circuit in many ways. Together, theoretical concepts, circuit topologies, electronic devices, their operating conditions, and the system's physical construction constitute an enormous design space in which it is easy to get lost. For this reason, analog electronics often is regarded as an art rather than a solid discipline.
Structured Electronics Design:

Defines a step-by-step hierarchically organized design process.
Is based on solid principles from systems engineering, physics, signal processing, control theory, and network theory.
Provides a solid foundation for circuit design education and automation.
Has been developed at the TU Delft since the 1980s.

We conﬁne ourselves to ordinary differential equations with the exception of the last chapter in which we discuss the heat equation, a parabolic partial differential equation. The techniques discussed in the intro-ductory chapters, for instance interpolation, numerical quadrature and the solution to nonlinear equations, may also be used outside the context of differential equations. They have been in-cluded to make the book self-contained as far as the numerical aspects are concerned. Chapters, sections and exercises marked with a * are not part of the Delft Institutional Package.The numerical examples in this book were implemented in Matlab, but also Python or any other programming language could be used. A list of references to background knowledge and related literature can be found at the end of this book. Extra information about this course can be found at http://NMODE.ewi.tudelft.nl, among which old exams, answers to the exercises, and a link to an online education platform.

description:
Our world is the only planet, as far as we know, which harbors life. The number of humans on our planet has grown tremendously in recent centuries. In 1800 one billion humans occupied our earth; on 15 November 2022, this number reached 8 billion.
A result of this growth, the emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2), the primary greenhouse gas emitted by human activities, drastically increased. The increased concentrations of greenhouse gases in our atmosphere foster the long-term increase of our earth’s temperatures, also referred to as global warming.
While the earth’s population grew, so did our mass consumption society. After the Second World War humanity witnessed gigantic global economic development with great technological improvements. Computers, laptops, airplanes, tablets and Internet of Things connected humans all over the world. The hunger for plastics and steel grew as all products had to be manufactured in ever-increasing volumes. As the economy developed, our consumption grew apace.
The healthcare sector has seen the same increase of consumption. The number of patients grew, and so did the number of single-use medical products. As products become more complex and more different materials were combined., recycling became more difficult. Thus, hospitals transformed into waste factories with ever-growing waste streams. The consumption of (disposable) medical devices takes up scarce raw materials and contributes to the growing CO2 emissions.
In this book, Van Straten, Alvino and Horeman present their findings on how to create a sustainable healthcare economy by introducing different circular strategies. In 9 chapters, they present a wide variation of studies as practical cases to show what strategies and actions can be taken in order to implement sustainable strategies for a circular healthcare.

description: Partial differential equations are paramount in mathematical modelling with applications in engineering and science. The book starts with a crash course on partial differential equations in order to familiarize the reader with fundamental properties such as existence, uniqueness and possibly existing maximum principles. The main topic of the book entails the description of classical numerical methods that are used to approximate the solution of partial differential equations. The focus is on discretization methods such as the finite difference, finite volume and finite element method. The manuscript also makes a short excursion to the solution of large sets of (non)linear algebraic equations that result after application of discretization method to partial differential equations. The book treats the construction of such discretization methods, as well as some error analysis, where it is noted that the error analysis for the finite element method is merely descriptive, rather than rigorous from a mathematical point of view. The last chapters focus on time integration issues for classical time-dependent partial differential equations. After reading the book, the reader should be able to derive finite element methods, to implement the methods and to judge whether the obtained approximations are consistent with the solution to the partial differential equations. The reader will also obtain these skills for the other classical discretization methods. Acquiring such fundamental knowledge will allow the reader to continue studying more advanced methods like meshfree methods, discontinuous Galerkin methods and spectral methods for the approximation of solutions to partial differential equations.

description: This is a book about numerically solving partial differential equations occurring in technical and physical contexts and the authors have set themselves a more ambitious target than to just talk about the numerics. Their aim is to show the place of numerical solutions in the general modeling process and this must inevitably lead to considerations about modeling itself. Partial differential equations usually are a consequence of applying first principles to a technical or physical problem at hand. That means, that most of the time the physics also have to be taken into account especially for validation of the numerical solution obtained. This book aims especially at engineers and scientists who have ’real world’ problems. It will concern itself less with pesky mathematical detail. For the interested reader though, we have included sections on mathematical theory to provide the necessary mathematical background. Since this treatment had to be on the superficial side we have provided further reference to the literature where necessary.

Motion is all around us, the universe is full of moving matter and this motion is surprisingly predictable. The field of science and engineering that studies time-dependent motion in the presence of forces is called Dynamics. In this book we will introduce the core concepts in dynamics and provide a comprehensive toolset to predict and analyse planar 2D motion of point masses and rigid bodies. The material includes kinematic analysis, Newton’s laws, Euler’s laws, the equations of motion, work, energy, impulse and momentum. Vector-based methods are discussed for systematically solving essentially any problem in 2D dynamics. The book provides a bachelor level introduction for any science and engineering student that can serve as a basis for more advanced courses in dynamics.

description: During the last 30 years, stimulated by the quest to build superconducting quantum processors, a theory of quantum electrical circuits has emerged, which is called circuit quantum electrodynamics or circuit-QED. The goal of the theory is to provide a quantum description of the most relevant degrees of freedom. The central objects to be derived and studied are the Lagrangian and the Hamiltonian governing these degrees of freedom. Central concepts in classical network theory such as impedance and scattering matrices can be used to obtain the Hamiltonian and Lagrangian description for the lossless (linear) part of the circuits. Methods of analysis, both classical and quantum, can also be developed for nonreciprocal circuits. These lecture notes aim at giving a comprehensive, theoretically oriented, overview of this subject for Master or PhD students in physics and electrical engineering.

description:
In this second edition, which is the result of numerous revisions, updates and additions, the authors cover the basic concepts of fracture mechanics for both the linear elastic and elastic-plastic regimes. The fracture mechanics parameters K, G, J and CTOD are treated in a basic manner along with the test methods to determine critical values. The development of failure assessment based on elastic-plastic fracture mechanics is reflected in a comprehensive treatment.
Three chapters are devoted to the fracture mechanics characterisation of crack growth. Fatigue crack growth is extensively treated and attention is paid to the important topic of the initiation and growth of short fatigue cracks. Furthermore, sustained load fracture and dynamic crack growth are discussed, including various test techniques, e.g. the determination of the crack arrest toughness.
Finally, there are two chapters dealing with mechanisms of fracture and the ways in which actual material behaviour influences the fracture mechanics characterisation of crack growth.
This textbook is intended primarily for engineering students. It will be useful to practising engineers as well, since it provides the background to several test and design methods and to criteria for material selection.

description:
This book treats optics at the level of students in the later stage of their bachelor or the beginning of their master.  It is assumed that the student is familiar with Maxwell’s equations. Although the book takes account of the fact that optics is part of electromagnetism, special emphasis is put on the usefulness of approximate models of optics, their hierarchy and limits of validity. Approximate models such as geometrical optics and paraxial geometrical optics are treated extensively and applied to image formation by the human eye, the microscope and the telescope.
Polarisation states and how to manipulate them are studied using Jones vectors and Jones matrices.  In the context of interference, the coherence of light is explained thoroughly. To understand fundamental limits of resolution which cannot be explained by geometrical optics, diffraction theory is applied to imaging. The angular spectrum method and evanescent waves are used to understand the inherent loss of information about subwavelength features during the propagation of light. The book ends with a study of the working principle of the laser.

Educational level: Master
Electrochemical engineering deals with electrochemical devices like electrolysers, fuel cells, and batteries. While several excellent books exist in this long-standing and still growing field, their focus is usually on chemistry or  phenomenology. In this textbook, we focus on mathematical modelling of the physical phenomena involved. Instead of resorting to numerical modelling, the aim is to derive simplified analytical models that maximise understanding.
Porous electrodes, ion mass transport, and multiphase flow are central themes in this book. Examples include modelling the water saturation in a fuel cell diffusion layer, the gas fraction and current distribution in an alkaline water electrolyser, the potential distribution in a binary electrolyte inside porous battery electrode, and the concentration distribution in the flow channel of a redox flow battery. This makes for a diverse, challenging, and stimulating journey, for both students and researchers.

description:
Adjustment theory can be regarded as the part of mathematical geodesy that deals with the optimal combination of redundant measurements together with the estimation of unknown parameters. It is essential for a geodesist, its meaning comparable to what mechanics means to a civil engineer or a mechanical engineer. Historically, the first methods of combining redundant measurements originate from the study of three problems in geodesy and astronomy, namely to determine the size and shape of the Earth, to explain the long-term inequality in the motions of Jupiter and Saturn, and to find a mathematical representation of the motions of the Moon. Nowadays, the methods of adjustment are used for a much greater variety of geodetic applications, ranging from, for instance, surveying and navigation to remote sensing and global positioning.
The two main reasons for performing redundant measurements are the wish to increase the accuracy of the results computed and the requirement to be able to check for errors. Due to the intrinsic uncertainty in measurements, measurement redundancy generally leads to an inconsistent system of equations. Without additional criteria, such a system of equations is not uniquely solvable. In this introductory course on adjustment theory, methods are developed and presented for solving inconsistent systems of equations. The leading principle is that of least-squares adjustment together with its statistical properties.
The inconsistent systems of equations can come in many different guises. They could be given in parametric form, in implicit form, or as a combination of these two forms. In each case the same principle of least-squares applies. The algorithmic realizations of the solution will differ however. Depending on the application at hand, one could also wish to choose between obtaining the solution in one single step or in a step-wise manner. This leads to the need of formulating the system of equations in partitioned form. Different partitions exist, measurement partitioning, parameter partitioning, or a partitioning of both measurements and parameters. The choice of partitioning also affects the algorithmic realization of the solution. In this introductory text the methodology of adjustment is emphasized, although various samples are given to illustrate the theory. The methods discussed form the basis for solving different adjustment problems in geodesy.

description:
These lecture notes are a follow up on Adjustment theory. Adjustment theory deals with the optimal combination of redundant measurements together with the estimation of unknown parameters. There are two main reasons for performing redundant measurements. First, the wish to increase the accuracy of the results computed. Second, the requirement to be able to check for mistakes or errors. The present book addresses this second topic. Although one always will try one's best to avoid making mistakes, they can and will occasionally happen. It is therefore of importance to have ways of detecting and identifying such mistakes. Mistakes or errors can come in many different guises. They could be caused by mistakes made by the observer, or by the fact that defective instruments are used, or by wrong assumptions about the functional relations between the observables. When passed unnoticed, these errors will deteriorate the final results.
The goal of this introductory course on testing theory is therefore to convey the necessary knowledge for testing the validity of both the measurements and the mathematical model. Typical questions that will be addressed are: 'How to check the validity of the mathematical model? How to search for certain mistakes or errors? How well can errors be traced? And how do undetected errors affect the final results?' The theory is worked out in detail for the important case of linear(ized) models. Both the parametric form (observation equations) and the implicit form (condition equations) of linear models are treated. As an additional aid in understanding the basic principles involved, a geometric interpretation is given throughout. Attention is also paid to the performance of the testing procedures. The closely related concept of reliability is introduced and diagnostic measures are given to determine the size of the minimal detectable biases. In this introductory text the methodology of testing is emphasized, although various examples are given to illustrate the theory. The methods discussed form the basis for geodetic quality control and they provide the ingredients for the formulation of guidelines for the reliable design of measurement set-ups.

description: The Delft Method for System Dynamics (SD) is a proven method for learning basic SD. The method focuses on learning by doing: first you try to work through an exercise, and if you do not understand something, then you can look up the theory. The book contains exercises on topics such as causal loop diagrams, delays, and when SD is an appropriate methodology. It also contains modelling exercises that show students how to build low to medium complexity models, and how to use these models for policy analysis. The theory chapters cover all phases of the modelling cycle: problem articulation, conceptualisation, formulation, evaluation (including validation and scenario analysis), and policy analysis. This book is intended for students and teachers in large or small System Dynamics courses, and for motivated students that want to learn SD at their own pace.

description:
This book is a follow-up on Adjustment theory. It extends the theory to the case of time-varying parameters with an emphasis on their recursive determination. Least-squares estimation will be the leading principle used. A least-squares solution is said to be recursive when the method of computation enables sequential, rather than batch, processing of the measurement data. The recursive equations enable the updating of parameter estimates for new observations without the need to store all past observations. Methods of recursive least-squares estimation are therefore particularly useful for applications in which the time-varying parameters need to be instantly determined. Important examples of such applications can be found in the fields of real-time kinematic positioning, navigation and guidance, or multivariate time series analysis. The goal of this book is therefore to convey the necessary knowledge to be able to process sequentially collected measurements for the purpose of estimating time-varying parameters.
When determining time-varying parameters from sequentially collected measurement data, one can discriminate between three types of estimation problems: filtering, prediction and smoothing. Filtering aims at the determination of current parameter values, while smoothing and prediction aim at the determination of respectively past and future parameter values. The emphasis in this book will be on recursive least-squares filtering. The theory is worked out for the important case of linear(ized) models. The measurement-update and time-update equations of recursive least-squares are discussed in detail. Models with sequentially collected data, but time-invariant parameters are treated first.
In this case only the measurement-update equations apply. State-space models for dynamic systems are discussed so as to include time-varying parameters. This includes their linearization and the construction of the state transition matrix. Elements from the theory of random functions are used to describe the propagation laws for linear dynamic systems. The theory is illustrated by means of many worked out examples. They are drawn from applications such as kinematic positioning, satellite orbit determination and inertial navigation.

description:
The aim of computing a geodetic network is to determine the geometry of the configuration of a set of points from spatial observations (e.g. GPS baselines and/or terrestrial measurements). The configuration of points usually consists of newly established points, of which the coordinates still need to be determined, and already existing points, the so-called control points, of which the coordinates are known.
Network quality control deals with the qualitative aspects of network design, network adjustment, network validation and network connection. By means of a network adjustment the relative geometry of the new points is determined and integrated into the geometry of the existing control points. Prior to the network adjustment, the geometry of the network is designed on the basis of precision and reliability criteria.
The adjustment and validation of the overall geometry can be divided in two phases, the free network phase and the connected network phase. In the free network phase, the known coordinates of the control points do not take part in the adjustment and validation. The possible use of a free network phase is based on the idea that a good geodetic network should be sufficiently precise and reliable in itself, without the need of external control. Moreover, it allows one to validate the quality of the external control.
In the connected network phase, the geometry of the free network is integrated into the geometry of the control points. Adjustment and validation in this second phase differs from the free network phase. The adjustment in the second phase is a constrained connection adjustment, since it is often not practical to see the coordinates  of the control points change every time a free network is connected to them. For the validation of the connected network however, the unconstrained connected adjustment is used as input. This allows one to take the intrinsic uncertainty of the coordinates of the control points in the connection phase into account.
The goal of this introductory text on network quality control is to convey the necessary knowledge for designing, adjusting and testing geodetic networks. For the purpose of network design, the precision and reliability theory is worked out in detail. This includes the minimal detectable biases and the bias-to-noise ratios. For the purpose of the network adjustment, the principles of unconstrained-, constrained-, and minimally constrained least-squares estimation, are treated. For the network testing, the principles of hypothesis testing are presented and worked out for the different network cases. For the free network phase this includes the overall model test, the w-test, and the data snooping procedure. For the connected network phase, it includes the T-test, with an emphasis on the detection and identification of errors in the control points.

Het boek is een algemene introductie in het elektromagnetisme, zoals in de meeste Amerikaanse universiteiten in het eerste jaar wordt gegeven. Uiteindelijk worden de wetten van Maxwell in integraal-vorm gegeven. De begrippen elektrische lading, krachten en velden worden beschreven. Hieruit wordt het begrip potentiaal gedefinieerd, met als toepassing de condensator. Vervolgens wordt er een link gelegd tussen het macroscopische en microscopische beeld van elektrische stroom. De relatie tussen stroom en magnetisch veld wordt gelegd en geïllustreerd aan de hand van spoelen. Het gedrag van condensatoren en spoelen in wisselstroomschakelingen wordt afgeleid. Tot slot laten we zien dat elektromagnetische golven voldoen aan de wetten van Maxwell.
De studenten leren de wetten van Maxwell toe te passen in eenvoudige problemen. Ze leren grootheden uit te rekenen en eenvoudige afleidingen te maken. Ze passen symmetrie toe om een probleem wiskundig sterk te vereenvoudigen.
