The new science of nutrigenomics and its ethical and societal challenges Gene-diet interactions–which underlie relatively benign lactose intolerance to life-threatening conditions such as cardiovascular disease–have long been known. But until now, scientists lacked the tools to fully understand the underlying mechanisms that cause these conditions. In recent years, however, strides in human genomi…
A fascinating introduction to the basic principles of orbital mechanics It has been three hundred years since Isaac Newton first formulated laws to explain the orbits of the Moon and the planets of our solar system. In so doing he laid the groundwork for modern science's understanding of the workings of the cosmos and helped pave the way to the age of space exploration. Adventures in Celestial Mec…
Что такое open sourse и чем он отличается от программ с закрытым исходным кодом? Как устроено дерево файловой системы самого распространенного бесплатного ОС в мире? где обитают демоны linux? как отличить root от администратора? Почему система windows небезопасная и сколько существует уровней защиты у unix-подобных систем? Ответы на эти и все другие, способные возникнут в процессе чтения инструкци…
Представлен материал, необходимый для изучения операционных усилителей: структура, элементы схемотехники, основные характеристики и параметры. Рассмотрены вопросы построения аналоговых устройств на операционных усилителях с резистивной и комплексной обратной связью. Приводятся справочные данные по параметрам отечественных и зарубежных ОУ (прил. 1–4).
В целях повышения точности измерений в монографии обсуждаются динамические эффекты, возникающие в различных режимах функционирования гироскопов из-за конечных деформаций содержащихся в них чувствительных элементов и влияния свойств конструкционных материалов. В книге предложены алгоритмы учета и компенсации погрешностей гироскопов, алгоритмы настройки и управления колебаниями для точного определен…
While the weight of a structure constitutes a significant part of the cost, a minimum weight design is not necessarily the minimum cost design. Little attention in structural optimization has been paid to the cost optimization problem, particularly of realistic three-dimensional structures. Cost optimization is becoming a priority in all civil engineering projects, and the concept of Life-Cycle Co…
Since the publication of Wireless Video Communications five years ago, the area of video compression and wireless transceivers has evolved even further. This new edition addresses a range of recent developments in these areas, giving cognizance to the associated transmission aspects and issues of error resilience. Video Compression and Communications has been updated and condensed yet remains all-…

The most complete and up-to-date handbook on power generation from coal, this book covers all of today's new, cleaner methods for creating electricity from coal, the environmental challenges and concerns involved in its production, and developing technologies. It describes new technologies that could virtually eliminate the sulfur, nitrogen, and mercury pollutants released when coal is burned for …
This book provides detailed reviews of a range of nanostructures used in the construction of biosensors as well as the applications of these biosensor nanotechnologies in the biological, chemical, and environmental monitoring fields Biological sensing is a fundamental tool for understanding living systems, but also finds practical application in medicine, drug discovery, process control, food safe…
This book summarises the British legislation covering electrical safety, including those regulations derived from European directives. It also addresses the legislation relating to the supply and use of safety-related electrotechnical control systems, particularly on machinery. As well as describing the legal framework, and the main legal duties and applicable standards, the book describes electri…
