extent the approaches to illness and healing have become "disenchanted" during this period or not. The authors have drawn on a broad range of archival sources, medical literature and field studies (as far as the more recent history is concerned). The studies in this volume show that Max Weber's concept of the "disenchantment of the world" may be perfectly applicable to many phenomena, but lack ...

A load estimation algorithm based on k-means cluster analysis was developed.

The growing availability of low-power sensors, microprocessors, and transmitters makes it increasingly attractive to use distributed sensor networks for track-health monitoring. Widespread implementation of these networks will require robust and low-maintenance methods for powering the electronics. This research investigates two principal methods of harvesting mechanical power from passing rail...
