The book compiles all current aspects and emerging notions of Industry 4.0 into clusters of "enablers" and "analytics" of Supply Chain 4.0. Their multifaceted and highly interconnected nature is discussed at length, as are their diverse range of applications. You will ...
Design and Operation of Solid Oxide Fuel Cells: The Systems Engineering Vision for Industrial Application presents a comprehensive, critical and accessible review of the latest research in the field of solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs). As well as discussing the theoretical aspects of the field, the book explores a diverse range of power applications, such as hybrid power plants, polygeneration, distributed electricity generation, energy storage and waste management—all with a focus on modeling and computational skills. Dr. Sharifzadeh presents the associated risks and limitations throughout the discussion, providing a very complete and thorough analysis of SOFCs and their control and operati...
Advances in artificial intelligence (AI), widespread mobile devices, internet technologies, multimedia data sources, and information processing have led to the emergence of multimedia processing. Multimedia processing is the application of signal processing tools to multimedia data—text, audio, images, and video—to allow the interpretation of these data, particularly in urban and smart city environments. This book discusses the new standards of multimedia and information processing from several technological perspectives, including analytics empowered by AI, streaming on the intelligent edge, multimedia edge caching and AI, services for edge AI, and hardware and devices for multimedia on...
The “Practicable Artificial Photosynthesis (PAP)” technology described in this book facilitates one to harvest sunlight to meet all the energy needs of the society without any back-up from fossil fuels to meet all the energy needs of the society by using carbon dioxide and water as energy storing materials. The PAP process can completely eradicate the poverty and unemployment across the globe, and it can solve the problems of CO2 associated global warming and the related social cost of carbon problems completely. Four new technologies invented and discovered by the author of this book as a part of developing this comprehensive PAP process including a brand-new technology “Semiconductor and Liquid Assisted Photothermal Effect (SLAPE)” to generate electricity from sunlight with highest efficiency at lowest expenditure have also been presented and described in this book for the first time. Ultra-low cost EPDM rubber based membranes needed for alkaline electrolyzers and fuel cells also introduced in this book.

The European Symposium on Computer Aided Process Engineering (ESCAPE) series presents the latest innovations and achievements of leading professionals from the industrial and academic communities. The ESCAPE series serves as a forum for engineers, scientists, researchers, managers and students to present and discuss progress being made in the area of computer aided process engineering (CAPE). European industries large and small are bringing innovations into our lives, whether in the form of new technologies to address environmental problems, new products to make our homes more comfortable and energy efficient or new therapies to improve the health and well being of European citizens. Moreover, the European Industry needs to undertake research and technological initiatives in response to humanity's "Grand Challenges," described in the declaration of Lund, namely, Global Warming, Tightening Supplies of Energy, Water and Food, Ageing Societies, Public Health, Pandemics and Security. Thus, the Technical Theme of ESCAPE 21 will be "Process Systems Approaches for Addressing Grand Challenges in Energy, Environment, Health, Bioprocessing & Nanotechnologies."
Il quaderno BIM-Strumenti intreccia temi da sempre presenti nel settore della ricerca, quale il rilievo e la visualizzazione dei dati, alla luce delle innovazioni date dalla tecnica. Il rilievo digitale viene descritto nelle parti consolidate della strumentazione di stazione totale, laser scanner e droni analizzando le interazioni tra loro e gli spunti che riescono ad offrire nelle procedure di restituzione e gestione dei manufatti. Da qui si dipanano le opportunità sempre crescenti date dalla strumentazione per la fruizione. Il book analizza per sommi capi cave, teatri immersivi, tavoli olografici, visori per realtà virtuale ed aumentata ma anche l’utilizzo di piattaforme mediante formati di scambio IFC, tratteggiando pro e contro dei differenti workflow. Viene suggerito qualche affondo su prodotti specifici, senza per questo pensando di essere esaustivi, e su alcune modalità di utilizzo dei software in modalità interoperabile per operare tra piattaforme di modellazione, prezziari e gestione dei manufatti all’interno del panorama BIM più aggiornato.
