This book describes the discusses advanced fuels and combustion, emission control techniques, after-treatment systems, simulations and fault diagnostics, including discussions on different engine diagnostic techniques such as particle image velocimetry (PIV), phase Doppler interferometry (PDI), laser ignition. This volume bridges the gap between basic concepts and advanced research in internal combustion engine diagnostics, making it a useful reference for both students and researchers whose work focuses on achieving higher fuel efficiency and lowering emissions.
Communication is a key component of everyday life, but what happens when an individual is faced with a communication disorder? Today, the prevalence of individuals with communication disorders has increased substantially. However, many of these ailments are poorly understood, and medical professionals often lack the training and research necessary to manage and treat these individuals. The Handbook of Research on Psychosocial Perspectives of Human Communication Disorders is a critical scholarly resource that covers needs-based issues pertaining to the assessment and management of communication disorders. It provides the latest research on the importance of early identification, as well as prevention and intervention practices to promote healthy cognitive, speech, language, motor, social, and emotional development. Featuring coverage on a broad range of topics such as speech therapy for children, behavior therapy, and communication disorders, this book is a vital reference source for clinical psychologists, audiologists, speech-language pathologists, special education teachers, occupational therapists, physiotherapists, physiatrists, otolaryngologists, and neurologists.
The 31st Leeds-Lyon Symposium on Tribology was held at Trinity and All Saints College in Leeds under the title "Life Cycle Tribology" from Tuesday 7th September until Friday 10th September 2004. Over the three days of presentations that followed, life cycle tribology was explored across a range of areas including automotive tribology, bearings, bio-degradability and sustainability, bio-tribology, coatings, condition monitoring, contact mechanics, debris effects, elastohydrodynamic lubrication, lubricants, machine systems, nanotribology, rolling contact fatigue, transmissions, tribochemistry and wear and failure. Invited talks in these fields were presented by leading international researchers and practitioners, namely C.J. Hooke, J.A. Williams, R.J.K. Wood, G. Isaac, S.C. Tung, D. Price, I. Sherrington, M. Hadfield, K. Kato, R.I. Taylor, H.P. Evans, R.S. Dwyer-Joyce and H. Rahnejat.
The main aim of the 2nd international conference on recent advances in materials manufacturing and machine learning processes-2023 (RAMMML-23) is to bring together all interested academic researchers, scientists, engineers, and technocrats and provide a platform for continuous improvement of manufactur□ing, machine learning, design and materials engineering research. RAMMML 2023 received an overwhelm□ing response with more than 530 full paper submissions. After due and careful scrutiny, about 120 of them have been selected for presentation. The papers submitted have been reviewed by experts from renowned institutions, and subsequently, the authors have revised the papers, duly incorporating the suggestions of the reviewers. This has led to significant improvement in the quality of the contributions, Taylor & Francis publications, CRC Press have agreed to publish the selected proceedings of the conference in their book series of Advances in Mechanical Engineering and Interdisciplinary Sciences. This enables fast dissemina□tion of the papers worldwide and increases the scope of visibility for the research contributions of the authors.
Artificial Intelligence in Textile Engineering explains Artificial Intelligence techniques from first principles in the perfect way for textiles materials scientists and engineers.Advances in Artificial Intelligence technology have made a substantial impact across the textiles supply chain, making products more efficient, flexible and reliable. In this book techniques such as artificial neural network, support vector machine, fuzzy logic, rough set, evolutionary algorithm, and hybrid intelligence systems are described with application to textiles.

"Akashvani" (English) is a programme journal of ALL INDIA RADIO, it was formerly known as The Indian Listener. It used to serve the listener as a bradshaw of broadcasting ,and give listener the useful information in an interesting manner about programmes, who writes them, take part in them and produce them along with photographs of performing artists. It also contains the information of major changes in the policy and service of the organisation. The Indian Listener (fortnightly programme journal of AIR in English) published by The Indian State Broadcasting Service, Bombay, started on 22 December, 1935 and was the successor to the Indian Radio Times in English, which was published beginning ...
Smart Textiles from Natural Resources is an interdisciplinary guide to best practice and emerging challenges in the use of natural textiles in smart applications. The movement towards smart textiles has attracted researchers from many fields creating multidisciplinary research frontiers with nanoscience, smart materials and structures, microelectronics, and wireless communication. This ground-breaking book provides technical advice and foundational support to researchers from all of these backgrounds seeking to include sustainability in their solutions.Each chapter in this book is written, reviewed and edited to cover the principles of manufacture, process techniques and mechanisms, and the state-of-the-art construction specifications, properties, test methods and standards of the major product areas and applications of this field. - Covers a wide variety of novel applications of smart textiles, including medical, protective, and automotive - Proposed solutions are based on case studies from academic and industrial labs around the world - Explains how to improve the biodegradability, renewability, biocompatibility, and non-toxicity of smart products
Sustainable Innovations in the Textile Industry addresses advances taking place at every stage of the textile supply chain leading to improvements in sustainability and resource efficiency. There is a significant emphasis on respect for the environment in current thinking around textiles, which contrasts with the impression many have of the industry due to its impact on global pollution over the past century. A key strength of the book is its comprehensive coverage of the complete textile process sequence, including fibre to textile manufacture, dyeing, printing, finishing, and effluent discharge. This holistic approach is required to effectively address the sustainability issue, which is re...
Designing Advanced Respiratory Protective Devices for Pandemics: Performance, Mechanism and Future Perspectives identifies emerging and critical issues that directly or indirectly influence the protective performance of Respiratory Protective Devices (RPDs), along with important future research directions.
