Indian indentured emigration is among the most notable social phenomena of modern history, which sent over one million men and women to tropical sugar colonies in the Atlantic, Pacific and Indian oceans. Indenture began in the 1830s and lasted till 1920; a period which finds little or no mention either in history textbooks or in literature. This book takes a closer look at some of the important narratives on indenture and evaluates them in order to highlight the experience of the indentured people across the plantation colonies in Fiji and in the Caribbean. The story of indenture is the story of betrayal, of trauma and of resistance. It is also a narrative of resilience, assimilation and acculturation. This book offers an in-depth literary study to reveal that there exists a language of indenture, one that permeates all the texts written on the subject. The texts speak to, and for each other, thereby revealing the indenture experience to the reader.

This newly revised and updated edition offers a current and complete introduction to the analysis and design of Electro-Optical (EO) imaging systems. It provides numerous updates and several new chapters including those covering Pilotage, Infrared Search and Track, and Simplified Target Acquisition Model. The principles and components of the Linear Shift-Invariant (LSI) infrared and electro-optical systems are detailed in full and help you to combine this approach with calculus and domain transformations to achieve a successful imaging system analysis. This book leads to results in quantitative characterizations of performance metrics such as modulation transfer functions, minimum resolvable temperature difference, minimum resolvable contrast, and probability of object discrimination. It includes an introduction to two-dimensional functions and mathematics which can be used to describe image transfer characteristics and imaging system components. You will learn diffraction concepts of coherent and incoherent imaging systems which show you the fundamental limits of their performance. By using the evaluation procedures contained in this desktop reference, you become capable of predicting both sensor test and field performance and quantifying the effects of component variations. The book contains over 800 time-saving equations and includes numerous analyses and designs throughout. It also includes a reference link to special website prepared by the authors that augments the book in the classroom and serves as an additional resource for practicing engineers. With its comprehensive coverage and practical approach, this is a strong resource for engineers needing a bench reference for sensor and basic scenario performance calculations. Numerous analyses and designs are given throughout the text. It is also an excellent text for upper-level students with an interest in electronic imaging systems.

Aujourd'hui, plus qu'à tout autre moment dans notre spécialité, nous avons la capacité de fournir des résultats esthétiques à nos patients. Nous avons une bonne compréhension des changements qui se produisent dans les tissus mous avec la croissance et des changements produits par notre traitement. En utilisant des techniques de développement précoce de l'arcade, des extractions sélectives, des dispositifs d'ancrage temporaire ou une réduction interproximale, nous pouvons mieux produire l'espace nécessaire pour aligner les dents tout en obtenant un soutien optimal des lèvres et une morphologie du menton. Les malocclusions de classe III, jusqu'alors impossibles à traiter, peuvent être traitées avec une protraction maxillaire qui peut produire des changements dans le profil des tissus mous - des changements qui étaient auparavant impossibles à obtenir sans chirurgie orthognathique. Des appareils fonctionnels peuvent être utilisés pour avancer la mandibule dans le visage, ce qui permet d'obtenir une position plus équilibrée du menton. Des dispositifs d'ancrage temporaire peuvent être utilisés pour déplacer les dents dans les trois plans de l'espace.Cet objectif n'est pas seulement esthétique. Il reflète le désir des patients d'améliorer leur acceptabilité sociale et d'éliminer la discrimination fondée sur l'apparence, qui affecte grandement leur qualité de vie. "La beauté est associée à la symétrie, aux relations de hauteur et de largeur plutôt qu'à une proportion mathématique."
