Despite bringing prosperity, industrialisation generally leads to increasing levels of pollution which has a detrimental impact on the environment. In response, legislation which seeks to control or prevent such impact has become common. Similarly, climate change and energy security have become major drivers for the regulatory regimes that have emerged in the energy field. Given the global or regi…
This book presents reviews of various aspects of radiation/matter interactions, be these instrumental developments, the application of the study of the interaction of X-rays and materials to a particular scientific field, or specific methodological approaches. The overall aim of the book is to provide reference summaries for a range of specific subject areas within a pedagogical framework. Each ch…
В книге представлены результаты теоретических и экспериментальных исследований релятивистских магнетронов, проведенных в России и за рубежом, в том числе и автором монографии, за период с 1976 по 2012 гг. Описаны конструкции приборов, принцип действия, отличия от классических аналогов. Подробно обсуждаются проблемы генерации СВЧ-импульсов сверхбольшой мощности, получаемой в релятивистских магнетро…
Излагается метод конечных элементов (МКЭ) и методика его применения в динамических расчетах стержневых систем при различных видах деформаций (растяжении–сжатии, кручении, изгибе), а также при сложных видах нагружения стержней: растяжении–сжатии с кручением, косом изгибе, косом изгибе в сочетании с растяжением–сжатием, косом изгибе с растяжением–сжатием и кручением. Подробно рассмотрено решение на …
Finally a book on Wireless Sensor Networks that covers real world applications and contains practical advice! Kuorilehto et al. have written the first practical guide to wireless sensor networks.

Critically acclaimed text for computer performance analysis–now in its second edition The Second Edition of this now-classic text provides a current and thorough treatment of queueing systems, queueing networks, continuous and discrete-time Markov chains, and simulation. Thoroughly updated with new content, as well as new problems and worked examples, the text offers readers both the theory and pr…
In recent years, control systems have become more sophisticated in order to meet increased performance and safety requirements for modern technological systems. Engineers are becoming more aware that conventional feedback control design for a complex system may result in unsatisfactory performance, or even instability, in the event of malfunctions in actuators, sensors or other system components. …
Communication Patterns of Engineers brings together, summarizes, and analyzes the research on how engineers communicate, presenting benchmark data and identifying gaps in the existing research. Written by two renowned experts in this area, the text: Compares engineering communication patterns with those of science and medicine Offers information on improving engineering communication skills, inclu…
A cutting-edge look at safety and security applications of photonic sensors With its many superior qualities, photonic sensing technology is increasingly used in early-detection and early-warning systems for biological hazards, structural flaws, and security threats. Photonic Sensing provides for the first time a comprehensive review of this exciting and rapidly evolving field, focusing on the dev…
This proceedings contains papers presented at the Electronics in Extreme Environments, International Fuel Cells and Related Systems, and Advanced Dielectrics for Wireless Communications symposia.
Wireless channels are becoming more and more important, with the future development of wireless ad-hoc networks and the integration of mobile and satellite communications. To this end, algorithmic detection aspects (involved in the physical layer) will become fundamental in the design of a communication system. This book proposes a unified approach to detection for stochastic channels, with partic…
