The original theory of capital cost and capital structure put forward by Nobel Prize Winners Modigliani and Miller has since been modified by many authors, and this book discusses some of them. The book's authors have created general theory of capital cost and capital structure - the Brusov-Filatova-Orekhova (BFO) theory, which generalizes the Modigliani-Miller theory to encompass companies of an arbitrary age (and arbitrary lifetime). Despite the availability of this more general theory, the classical Modigliani-Miller theory is still widely used in practice. In this book, the authors for the first time generalize it for cases of practical relevance: for the case of variable profit; for the case of advance tax-on-profit payments and interest on debt payments; for the case of several tax-on-profit and interest on debt payments per period; and for the combination of all three effects. These generalizations lead to valuable theoretical results as well as significantly widen of practical application this theory in practice and increase of the quality of finance management of the company. As well, the book investigates the applications of said results in corporate finance, investments, taxation and ratings, where employing a generalized Modigliani-Miller theory can be very fruitful.

The book explores the fundamental issues of robot mechanics for both the analysis and design of manipulations, manipulators and grippers, taking into account a central role of mechanics and mechanical structures in the development and use of robotic systems with mechatronic design. It examines manipulations that can be performed by robotic manipulators. The contents of the book are kept at a fairly practical level with the aim to teach how to model, simulate, and operate robotic mechanical systems. The chapters have been written and organized in a way that they can be red even separately, so that they can be used separately for different courses and purposes. The introduction illustrates motivations and historical developments of robotic mechanical systems. Chapter 2 describes the analysis and design of manipulations by automatic machinery and robots; chapter 3 deals with the mechanics of serial-chain manipulators with the aim to propose algorithms for analysis, simulation, and design purposes; chapter 4 introduces the mechanics of parallel manipulators; chapter 5 addresses the attention to mechanical grippers and related mechanics of grasping.

The first publication in the Create, Protect, and Deliver Digital Business value series sets out how the ever-changing threat landscape intersects with digital business risk. It introduces the Create, Protect, and Deliver (CPD) Model - a dynamic model of systems - to explain how any business value that is created must be protected at a level which is proportional to its value to the organization.

Fundamental Chemistry with MATLAB highlights how MATLAB can be used to explore the fundamentals and applications of key topics in chemistry. After an introduction to MATLAB, the book provides examples of its application in both fundamental and developing areas of chemistry, from atomic orbitals, chemical kinetics and gaseous reactions, to clean coal combustion and ocean equilibria, amongst others. Complimentary scripts and datasets are provided to support experimentation and learning, with scripts outlined. Drawing on the experience of expert authors, this book is a practical guide for anyone in chemistry who is interested harnessing scripts, models and algorithms of the MATLAB.
