An up-to-date overview of the fundamental and applied aspects of renewability and recyclability of rubber materials.
Computational capabilities bring with them the advantages of cold logic, precision, speed, data omniscience, mass data processing capabilities, multimodality, enriched deployments, and efficiencies. With these many advantages, people seek to offload work to machines. Now with the major advances in artificial intelligence, humanity is moving closer to handing over complex decision-making to machines, without humans in the direct loop. Enhancing Automated Decision-Making Through AI explores the processes of designing and deploying systems for automated decision-making. It also considers the implications of automated decision-making informed by AI, which can be unpredictable. Covering topics such as agriculture, disaster detection, and tumor detection, this book is an excellent resource for engineers, systems designers, instructors, graduate and postgraduate students, and more.
This book focuses on corrosion and microbial corrosion, providing solutions for these problems based on nanotechnology and nanobiotechnology. It introduces the causes, consequences, cost and control of corrosion processes. It gives a particular emphasis on microbial corrosion of steel and other metals in oil, gas and shipping industries. The book presents the materials vulnerable to such kind of corrosion, and the use of nanomaterials to control it.
