Sustainability Principles and Practice
Sustainability Principles and Practice gives an accessible and comprehensive overview of the interdisciplinary field of sustainability. The focus is on furnishing solutions and equipping students with both conceptual understanding and technical skills. Each chapter explores one aspect of the field, first introducing concepts and presenting issues, then supplying tools for working toward solutions. Elements of sustainability are examined piece by piece, and coverage ranges over ecosystems, social equity, environmental justice, food, energy, product life cycles, cities, and more. Techniques for management and measurement as well as case studies from around the world are provided. The 3rd editi...
Composite Materials
Summarizing the recent advances in high strain rate testing, this book discusses techniques for designing, executing, analyzing, and interpreting the results of experiments involving the dynamic behavior of multifunctional materials such as metals, polymers, fiber-reinforced polymers, hybrid laminates and so forth. The book also discusses analytical and numerical modeling of materials under high-velocity impact loading and other environmental conditions. Recent advances in characterization techniques such as digital image correlation and computed tomography for high strain rate applications are included. Features Presents exclusive material on high-rate properties of fiber-reinforced composites Provides numerical techniques on the analysis and enriched data on the high strain rate behavior of materials Explores cutting-edge techniques and experimental guidelines for an array of different materials subjected to high strain rate loading Explains clear understanding of material behavior at various strain rates Reviews mechanical response of different materials at high strain rates This book is aimed at researchers and professionals in mechanical, materials, and aerospace engineering.
Environment Conscious Manufacturing
Hotter temperatures, less arctic ice, loss of habitat-every other day, it seems, global warming and environmental issues make headlines. Consumer-driven environmental awareness combined with stricter recycling regulations have put the pressure on companies to produce and dispose of products in an environmentally responsible manner. Redefining indus
The Spectrum of Neuroendocrine Neoplasia
Neuroendocrine neoplasms comprise a large family of proliferative lesions that involve almost every part of the body. Our understanding of their cells of origin as well as the pathology, pathophysiology and genetics of these neoplasms has made tremendous advances in the last few decades. While they are often discussed as separate entities in textbooks of gastroenteropancreatic pathology and pulmonary pathology, their scope is much broader. The book conveys the similarities and differences of these fascinating tumors that may be found from the hypothalamus and pituitary to the rectum, and in soft tissue as well as in many organs. Written by experts in the field, the authors emphasize their st...
Product Life Cycle
Globalization and increased competition are forcing companies to review and improve their production processes to be more sustainable. However, a clear vision and environmental culture are lacking because, even today, companies are motivated to act to improve the environment essentially by compliance with government regulations and the opportunity to achieve profit growth. This book presents practices, challenges, and opportunities for the digital and sustainable transformation of business as we know it.
Sensors
This book gathers the best papers presented at the Fourth Italian National Conference on Sensors, held in Catania, Italy, from 21 to 23 February 2018. The book represents an invaluable and up-to-the-minute tool, providing an essential overview of recent findings, strategies and new directions in the area of sensor research. Further, it addresses various aspects based on the development of new chemical, physical or biological sensors, assembling and characterization, signal treatment and data handling. Lastly, the book applies electrochemical, optical and other detection strategies to relevant issues in the food and clinical environmental areas, as well as industry-oriented applications.
Product Design for the Environment
In recent years the increased awareness of environmental issues has led to the development of new approaches to product design, known as Design for Environment and Life Cycle Design. Although still considered emerging and in some cases radical, their principles will become, by necessity, the wave of the future in design. A thorough exploration of t
