Modelling of Convective Heat and Mass Transfer in Rotating Flows
This monograph presents results of the analytical and numerical modeling of convective heat and mass transfer in different rotating flows caused by (i) system rotation, (ii) swirl flows due to swirl generators, and (iii) surface curvature in turns and bends. Volume forces (i.e. centrifugal and Coriolis forces), which influence the flow pattern, emerge in all of these rotating flows. The main pa…

State, Market and Life Chances in Contemporary Rural Chinese Society
What are the effects of market reform on social stratifi cation in rural China? This topic has been a focus of sociology, especially comparative stratifi cation research, for more than two decades, because market reform in rural China provides a rare natural experiment involving changes in the stratifi cation order on a scale reminiscent of what was experienced in the West during the rise o…
