This book presents the experiences of Chinese Language researchers in Singapore to Chinese Language researchers and teachers in other countries and regions, such as the USA, the UK and Asia, that are home to a large number of learners, young and old. As such, the innovative ideas it provides can be applied in practising teachers’ classrooms to promote more effective and efficient student learning. Beyond pedagogical innovations, the book also includes papers on the assessment of Chinese Language learning and teacher literacy – two areas that have been largely neglected by the Chinese Language research and teaching communities, not only here in Singapore, but also around the world. This book, the sequel to “Teaching Chinese Language in Singapore: Retrospect and Challenges” (Springer, 2016), is future-oriented, highlighting ideas that merit further attention from researchers and practitioners alike.
The book covers up-to-date theoretical and applied advances in grey systems theory from across the world and vividly presents the reader with the overall picture of this new theory and its frontier research. Many of the concepts, models and methods in the book are original by the authors, including simplified form of grey number, general grey number and the operations of grey numbers; the axiomatic system of buffer operators and a series of weakening and strengthening operators; a series of grey relational analysis models, including grey absolute, relative, synthetic, similarity, closeness, negative and three dimension degree, etc.; grey fixed weight clustering model, grey evaluation models ...
A comprehensive tutorial on ultrasonic motors for practicing engineers, researchers and graduate students. "Ultrasonic Motors: Technologies and Applications" describes the operating mechanism, electromechanical coupling models, optimization design of structural parameters, testing methods, and drive/control techniques of various ultrasonic motors and their applications. Dr. Chunsheng Zhao is a professor at Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics (NUAA) where he is Director of the Precision Driving Laboratory at NUAA. He is a member of the Chinese Academy of Science, and holds 54 patents in China and published more than 400 papers in the field of piezoelectric ultrasonic motors.
Demands for high-performance micro/nano manipulations, from the manufacture of microelectronic and photonic devices, biomedical apparatus, nanoscience and nanotechnology, renewable energy, environment protection, and high-end appliances, have been rapidly increasing in recent years. However, there are very few books on ultrasonic manipulation technology, which is one of the important means in micro/nano manipulations.This unique title gives the basic physical principles of ultrasonic micro/nano manipulations, and highlights methods of implementing these principles. The nonlinear effects of ultrasound are described in details after piezoelectric transduction and acoustic field are introduced and discussed. Numerous important examples are given in this book, to help readers better understand the applications of these principles and characteristics of ultrasonic manipulators utilizing these principles. The examples cover the manipulations of micro solids, nanoscale entities, droplets and microfluid.This indispensable book will contribute positively to the development and application of micro/nano manipulation technology.
