This book provides a comprehensive overview and explanation of China’s population, analyzing its special characteristics and patterns of growth over the past 2,000 years. Topics include its composition, distribution, migration, and deep analysis into China’s historical population. The author aims to answer complicated questions such as how China’s population was formed, when China started its earliest population surveys, how China’s population migrated and was distributed historically, and how existing population data should be evaluated and used now? In addition, the author explores the influence of natural and human-caused disasters, censuses, tax policies, and economic development on China’s population changes. The work also offers a span of rich historical detail related to population control. The book will be a great read to students and scholars of population studies, Chinese studies, ethnology, and those who are interested in Chinese history, archaeology, geography, and sociology.
In this proceedings volume, the following topics are discussed: systems and design; blanket and first wall technology of fission and fusion reactors; fission and fusion materials; radiation damage analysis; calculation codes; databases.
This book provides an overview of the latest scientific developments and technological advances in two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials for fire-safe polymers. It summarizes the preparation methods for diverse types of 2D nanomaterials and their polymer composites and reviews their flame-retardant properties, toxic gas and smoke emission during combustion, and inhibition strategies. Covers fundamental aspects like influence of size and dispersion of 2D nanomaterials to help readers develop efficient, multi-functional, and ecofriendly fire-safe polymer composites for a wide range of applications Discusses new-emerging 2D nanomaterials for fire-safe polymer applications, including MXenes, graphitic carbon nitride, boron nitride, and black phosphorus Introduces basic modes of flame retardant action of 2D nanomaterials, including smoke and toxic gas suppression, and the role of 2D nanomaterials in promoting char formation This book is suitable for both scholars and engineers in the fields of polymer science and engineering. It is also aimed at graduate students in chemistry, materials, and safety science and engineering.
