Robotic Manipulators
In recent decades, robotic manipulators have played a very important role in the development of industry and automation. Nowadays, robotic manipulators are performing their tasks alongside human users by having some unique characteristics such as durability in polluted and dangerous environments, repeatability, high accuracy, the ability to move heavy objects, etc. The nonlinear, time-varying and complex dynamics of robotic manipulators and the effects of perturbation on their performance has been faced control engineers with serious challenges to design high performance controller for them. Hence, the focus of this book is on the modeling and control of robotic systems based on sliding mode...
Advanced Multi-Criteria Decision Making for Addressing Complex Sustainability Issues
Sustainability issues have gained more importance in contemporary globalization, pushing decision makers to find a systematic mathematical approach to conduct analyses of this real-world problem. The growing complexity in modern social-economics or engineering environments or systems has forced researchers to solve complicated problems by using multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) approaches. However, traditional MCDM research mainly focuses on reaching the highest economic value or efficiency, and issues related to sustainability are still not closely explored. Advanced Multi-Criteria Decision Making for Addressing Complex Sustainability Issues discusses and addresses the challenges in the...
International Journal of Engineering Research in Africa
We present our readers with the 42nd volume of "International Journal of Engineering Research in Africa". This volume contains articles describing the research results in the fields of materials science, applied mechanics, mechanical engineering, power distribution and power efficiency, construction materials and technologies, biodiesel production, information technologies, and industrial engineering. The articles will be useful for many engineers as well as for academic teachers and students majoring in these fields of engineering science.
Advances in Heat Transfer and Thermal Engineering
This book gathers selected papers from the 16th UK Heat Transfer Conference (UKHTC2019), which is organised every two years under the aegis of the UK National Heat Transfer Committee. It is the premier forum in the UK for the local and international heat transfer community to meet, disseminate ongoing work, and discuss the latest advances in the heat transfer field. Given the range of topics discussed, these proceedings offer a valuable asset for engineering researchers and postgraduate students alike.
Genetic Engineering of Plant Seeds to Increase Thiamin (Vitamin B1) Content
Thiamine (Vitamin B1) in the form of thiamine pyrophosphate (TPP) is an essential cofactor for the function of numerous enzymes which are involved in central metabolism such as citric acid cycle, pentose phosphate pathway, Calvin cycle, isoprenoid biosynthesis, and branched-chain amino acid biosynthesis. All living organisms need thiamine. However, human and animals can synthesize TPP from thiamine, but they are not able to synthesize thiamine de novo. Therefore, human and animals must obtain thiamine from their diet to maintain a normal metabolism. Severe thiamine deficiency causes the lethal disease beriberi and Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome in humans. The enzymes involved in thiamine de nov...
A Textbook of Advanced Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
The scope of OMF surgery has expanded; encompassing treatment of diseases, disorders, defects and injuries of the head, face, jaws and oral cavity. This internationally-recognized specialty is evolving with advancements in technology and instrumentation. Specialists of this discipline treat patients with impacted teeth, facial pain, misaligned jaws, facial trauma, oral cancer, cysts and tumors; they also perform facial cosmetic surgery and place dental implants. The contents of this volume essentially complements the volume 1; with chapters that cover both basic and advanced concepts on complex topics in oral and maxillofacial surgery.
Global Recruitment by ISIS
When Abu Bakr Al-Baghdadi called all Muslims to join the self-proclaimed Islamic State and fight jihad, tens of thousands answered the call from all over the globe. This book explores the formation of the Islamic State and how the organization went about recruiting an army to challenge the world order. Students will learn how the Islamic State used traditional recruitment methods, such as outreach through mosques and local influencers, as well as more modern tactics like social media and smartphone apps, to amass its following, and will explore what sorts of followers each mode of recruitment attracted.
Fracture and Fatigue Assessments of Structural Components
In dealing with fracture and fatigue assessments of structural components, different approaches have been proposed in the literature. They are usually divided into three subgroups according to stress-based, strain-based, and energy-based criteria. Typical applications include both linear elastic and elastoplastic materials and plain and notched or cracked components under both static and fatigue loadings. The aim of this Special Issue is to provide an update to the state-of-the-art on these approaches. The topics addressed in this Special Issue are applications from nano- to full-scale complex and real structures and recent advanced criteria for fracture and fatigue predictions under complex loading conditions, such as multiaxial constant and variable amplitude fatigue loadings.
