Inovação na Amazônia
"Projetamos os debates deste livro em torno de duas frentes de contribuição objetivas. A primeira busca refletir sobre como uma região do mundo e do Brasil como a amazônica, considerando ainda as heterogêneas regiões que a constituem, podem ter a sua expectativa particular sobre o desenvolvimento regional do reconhecimento e da valorização das estratégias, de instituições e de problemas preocupados com a Ciência & Tecnologia como instrumentalidades. Por sua vez, a segunda procura apresentar exemplos de iniciativas desenvolvidas - e, portanto, em vias de desenvolvimento - na região, visando demonstrar que há conhecimento, capturado ou não pela lente acadêmica, capaz de responder de forma respectiva e apropriada às questões regionais."
Inovação na Amazônia: debates sobre tecnologia, desenvolvimento e empreendedorismo
Este projeto literário, como uma continuidade em três volumes, pretende contribuir para uma determinada missão do ambiente científico-tecnológico, em seus vários adensamentos institucionais, que passa por propor um diálogo eclético, tolerante e pluralista entre os campos do conhecimento – ambos interdisciplinares – do Desenvolvimento Regional, por um lado, e por outro, da Inovação Tecnológica, em prol de uma causa comum, que é o aprimoramento, através de uma oferta atualizada de conhecimentos, das formulações técnicas para dar suporte ao processo de melhoria das condições de vida, oportunidade, distribuição isonômica e competitividade entre os diferentes segmentos e classes sociais.

Optimization of Photovoltaic Power Systems
Photovoltaic generation is one of the cleanest forms of energy conversion available. One of the advantages offered by solar energy is its potential to provide sustainable electricity in areas not served by the conventional power grid. Optimisation of Photovoltaic Power Systems details explicit modelling, control and optimisation of the most popular stand-alone applications such as pumping, power supply, and desalination. Each section is concluded by an example using the MATLAB® and Simulink® packages to help the reader understand and evaluate the performance of different photovoltaic systems. Optimisation of Photovoltaic Power Systems provides engineers, graduate and postgraduate students with the means to understand, assess and develop their own photovoltaic systems. As such, it is an essential tool for all those wishing to specialise in stand-alone photovoltaic systems. Optimisation of Photovoltaic Power Systems aims to enable all researchers in the field of electrical engineering to thoroughly understand the concepts of photovoltaic systems; find solutions to their problems; and choose the appropriate mathematical model for optimising photovoltaic energy.
Feminist Economics Today
The 1993 publication of Marianne A. Ferber and Julie A. Nelson's Beyond Economic Man was a landmark in both feminist scholarship and the discipline of economics, and it quickly became a handbook for those seeking to explore the emerging connections between the two. A decade later, this book looks back at the progress of feminist economics and forward to its future, offering both a thorough overview of feminist economic thought and a collection of new, high-quality work from the field's leading scholars.
Assessment of Treatment Plant Performance and Water Quality Data: A Guide for Students, Researchers and Practitioners
This book presents the basic principles for evaluating water quality and treatment plant performance in a clear, innovative and didactic way, using a combined approach that involves the interpretation of monitoring data associated with (i) the basic processes that take place in water bodies and in water and wastewater treatment plants and (ii) data management and statistical calculations to allow a deep interpretation of the data. This book is problem-oriented and works from practice to theory, covering most of the information you will need, such as (a) obtaining flow data and working with the concept of loading, (b) organizing sampling programmes and measurements, (c) connecting laboratory ...
Variable Speed Pumping
Prepared by industry experts from the pump, motor and drive industries under the auspices of Europump and the Hydraulic Institute, this reference book provides a comprehensive guide to variable speed pumping.It includes technical descriptions of pumping systems and their components, and guides the reader through the evaluation of different speed control options.Case studies help illustrate the life cycle cost savings and process improvements that appropriate variable speed pumping can deliver. · Authoritative, global reference to Variable Speed Pumping, by Europump and the Hydraulic Institute· Combines the technical knowledge of pump, motor and control systems in one guide· Brings together all the concepts, metrics and step-by-step decision-making support you need to help you decide which VSD strategies are most appropriate· Will help you design and specify pumping applications that minimise life-cycle costs
Solar Water Pumping
Pumping water is a universal need and a major energy challenge, especially where electrical service is absent, expensive or unreliable. Water demands are greatest when the sun shines most intensely. Could there be a better power source for pumping, than the sunshine itself? Over a million solar pumps are already in use for irrigation, livestock, pond and stream management, water treatment, homes and communities, emergency relief, government and recreational facilities, and more. They are rapidly replacing hand pumps, engines, windmills, and even public grid power. To succeed, designers, suppliers, funders and owners need to understand the unique aspects of this technology. This comprehensive...
Proceedings of the International Large River Symposium (LARS)
The main objectives of LARS were 1) To produce reliable estimates of fish yield by: a) reviewing existing estimators of production and standing stocks in large rivers and b) summarizing current river inventory and assessment techniques for biotic and abiotic variables; 2) To publish the case studies and synthesis papers; 3) To identify areas requiring further study to improve river resource management; and 4) To improve communication and liaison between scientists in research and management, university and government.
