Known for his ultraconservatism and eccentricity, Gu Hongming (1857-1928) remains one of the most controversial figures in modern Chinese intellectual history. A former member of the colonial elite from Penang who was educated in Europe, Gu, in his late twenties, became a Qing loyalist and Confucian spokesman who also defended concubinage, footbinding, and the queue. Seen as a reactionary by his Chinese contemporaries, Gu nevertheless gained fame as an Eastern prophet following the carnage of World War I, often paired with Rabindranath Tagore and Leo Tolstoy by Western and Japanese intellectuals. Rather than resort to the typical conception of Gu as an inscrutable eccentric, Chunmei Du argue...
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Smart Grid and Innovative Frontiers in Telecommunications, SmartGIFT 2022, held in Changsha, China, in December 10-12, 2022 The 44 full papers were selected from 116 submissions and focus on new challenges and opportunities of intelligent technologies in new energy systems.The papers are the papers are divided into the following areas: Simulation and analysis of the integrated energy system, disaster prevention & reduction for power grid, industry 4.0 applications, flexible planning and regulation techniques in smart grids, smart control and diagnose of distributed power system, and control and operation of UAV. These sessions aimed to address the new dimension that can gain insights into key challenges, understanding, and criteria of new technologies to develop and implement future industry-related services and applications.
This Document specifies the terms and definitions of automobile fuel-gas systems that use liquefied natural gas (hereinafter referred to as LNG) fuel, the composition and technical requirements of fuel-gas system of LNG vehicles, as well as the specific requirements for gas storage components, gas supply components, refuelling components and safety components.
This book focuses on the framework and implementation of energy integration systems with energy and smart-control technologies. It describes in detail We-Energy, a novel energy interaction mode based on a cyber-physical-economy-energy model, which can be adopted to solve the problem of energy supply and utilization. It then analyzes the key devices and technologies for developing the Energy Internet, such as converters, energy-conversion devices, system-level connection devices, optimization control strategies, cyber-physical system security, energy-system stability, communication technologies’ operating modes and distributed optimization algorithms, to enable readers to gain a comprehensi...
Energy storage plays an important role in supporting power-hungry devices and achieving stable power supply by optimally balancing supply and demand with ever-increasing requirement for computing power and the intermittent nature of renewable resources. Emerging Trends in Energy Storage Systems and Industrial Applications focuses on emerging trends in energy storage systems, applicable to various types of applications including heat and power generation, electrical and hybrid transportation. With performance limitations in current energy storage devices, such as limited energy density, power density, and cycle life, major challenges in the complex and dynamic environments of energy storage a...
Solid State Lighting Reliability: Components to Systems begins with an explanation of the major benefits of solid state lighting (SSL) when compared to conventional lighting systems including but not limited to long useful lifetimes of 50,000 (or more) hours and high efficacy. When designing effective devices that take advantage of SSL capabilities the reliability of internal components (optics, drive electronics, controls, thermal design) take on critical importance. As such a detailed discussion of reliability from performance at the device level to sub components is included as well as the integrated systems of SSL modules, lamps and luminaires including various failure modes, reliability testing and reliability performance. A follow-up, Solid State Lighting Reliability Part 2, was published in 2017.
This book presents an extensive literary survey of the influence of ancient Chinese cultural classics around the globe, highlighting a mammoth research project involving over forty countries or regions and more than twenty languages. As the book reveals, ancient Chinese culture was introduced to East Asian countries or regions very early on; furthermore, after the late Ming Dynasty, Chinese “knowhow” and ideas increasingly made inroads into the West. In particular, the translation of and research on Chinese classics around the world have enabled Chinese culture to take root and blossom on an unprecedented scale. In addition to offering a valuable resource for readers interested in culture, the social sciences, and philosophy, the book blazes new trails for the study of ancient Chinese culture.
