This book aims to evaluate and improve the state of charge (SOC) and state of health (SOH) of automotive lithium-ion batteries. The authors first introduce the basic working principle and dynamic test characteristics of lithium-ion batteries. They present the dynamic transfer model, compare it with the traditional second-order reserve capacity (RC) model, and demonstrate the advantages of the proposed new model. In addition, they propose the chaotic firefly optimization algorithm and demonstrate its effectiveness in improving the accuracy of SOC and SOH estimation through theoretical and experimental analysis. The book will benefit researchers and engineers in the new energy industry and provide students of science and engineering with some innovative aspects of battery modeling.
Multidimensional Lithium-Ion Battery Status Monitoring focuses on equivalent circuit modeling, parameter identification, and state estimation in lithium-ion battery power applications.

Reviews Li-ion battery characteristics and applications. Covers battery equivalent modeling, including electrical circuit modeling and para...
During the great war between the ancient Lich, the Eastern Emperor, along with the twelve Ancestral Mages, perished together. A tiny bit of his truesoul was protected by the Primal Chaos Bell, preventing it from perishing completely.However, the True Spirits within the Primal Chaos Bell were being targeted by the Jade Emperor, who had found the Chaotic Bell.With no better option, Taiyi could only send his Imperial Censor, the Chaos Bell, to break through space and escape into chaotic space.Seeing that his True Spirit was about to dissipate, the Primal Chaos Bell was anxious. It chose the corpse of the youth from another world, Lu Feng, and assisted in the rebirth of the True One's body.After being reincarnated, he had been very lucky. He had borrowed the name of Lu Feng to begin his own path of cultivation ...
Magnesium (Mg) and its alloys have received widespread acceptance in automobile industries and biomedical applications with substantial recent advancements made in their development, however a significant limitation remains their poor aqueous and galvanic corrosion resistance. This book covers both the fundamentals and recent advancements in two major corrosion protection strategies of magnesium and its alloys, namely, metal-matrix composites and protective coatings. Key features: Covers all aspects of metal-matrix composites and protective coatings for magnesium alloys to improve their corrosion resistance, wear resistance, mechanical properties and biocompatibility Provides the most recent research advancements in the corrosion mitigation strategies of magnesium and its alloys Complete with case studies specific to practical applications, this book serves as a ready reference for graduate students, researchers, engineers and industry professionals in the fields of materials, corrosion science, biofouling and protective coatings.
State Estimation Strategies in Lithium-ion Battery Management Systems presents key technologies and methodologies in modeling and monitoring charge, energy, power and health of lithium-ion batteries. Sections introduce core state parameters of the lithium-ion battery, reviewing existing research and the significance of the prediction of core state parameters of the lithium-ion battery and analyzing the advantages and disadvantages of prediction methods of core state parameters. Characteristic analysis and aging characteristics are then discussed. Subsequent chapters elaborate, in detail, on modeling and parameter identification methods and advanced estimation techniques in different applicat...
China is forecast to be the primary tourist destination and tourist-generating country by 2020. However, much of the writing on tourism in China has come from people within the English academic world who are not involved in the issues related to Chinese tourism development. This book provides a voice to Chinese mainland academic researchers and examines the nature of tourism research and tourism development in China. Contributors, many of whom are based in China and are immersed in the daily issues of teaching, researching and planning tourism development within China, discuss issues related to resource use, destination image and community participation with case studies that combine conceptual frameworks and practical issues. This authoritative text on tourism in China will be of interest to scholars and students of tourism throughout the world.
This book explores the interplay between war and the environment in Henan Province, a hotly contested frontline territory that endured massive environmental destruction and human disruption during the conflict between China and Japan that raged during World War II. In a desperate attempt to block Japan's military advance, Chinese Nationalist armies under Chiang Kai-shek broke the Yellow River's dikes in Henan in June 1938, resulting in devastating floods that persisted until after the war's end. Greater catastrophe struck Henan in 1942-1943, when famine took some two million lives and displaced millions more. Focusing on these war-induced disasters and their aftermath, this book conceptualizes the ecology of war in terms of energy flows through and between militaries, societies, and environments. Ultimately, Micah Muscolino argues that efforts to procure and exploit nature's energy in various forms shaped the choices of generals, the fates of communities, and the trajectory of environmental change in North China.
This book dedicates the first seven chapters to cardiac electrophysiological dysfunction that can lead to ventricular fibrillation and sudden death. The next six chapters expand the topics of sudden death to other causes. Brugada Syndrome is the top cause of non-traumatic sudden death in young males of Southeastern Asian and southern European origins. Chapters One and Two review extensively the history and current status, mechanisms of arrhythmias, and related gene mutations in Brugada Syndrome, and discuss gaps in the current knowledge. Chapter Three presents clinical studies on the A1180V and R1193Q mutations of the cardiac sodium channel gene, SCN5A. The authors identified R1193Q mutation...
The book is the volume of “The History of Science and Technology in Sui, Tang and Five Dynasties” among a series of books of “Deep into China Histories”. The earliest known written records of the history of China date from as early as 1250 BC, from the Shang dynasty (c. 1600–1046 BC) and the Bamboo Annals (296 BC) describe a Xia dynasty (c. 2070–1600 BC) before the Shang, but no writing is known from the period The Shang ruled in the Yellow River valley, which is commonly held to be the cradle of Chinese civilization. However, Neolithic civilizations originated at various cultural centers along both the Yellow River and Yangtze River. These Yellow River and Yangtze civilizations ...
