The book is devoted to the solution of the problem of determining the presence of corona discharge on electrical equipment with acoustic radiation. It is shown that corona discharge leads not only to irreversible losses of electrical energy, but also interferes with the transmission of high-frequency signals, deteriorates insulating elements, can become a source of conditions for the occurrence of a destructive arc discharge and is one of the factors of changing the continuity of the electrical system as a whole. The book describes the processes in a corona discharge that lead to the occurrence of acoustic waves. The authors analyzed acoustic radiation from a corona discharge reproduced in l...
This book is devoted to the development of complex methods and means of their implementation with using UAVs aimed for improving the safety and efficiency of the energy system. The scientific problem of complex automated monitoring of the energy system objects with using UAVs has been solved, including the control of its elements in the visible and infrared range, the acoustic spectrum, as well as by the levels of the electric field strength. The scientific foundations of mathematical, physical and statistical modeling of electromagnetic and acoustic fields in the elements of electric power objects of complex spatial configurations have been created, taking into account the possibility of th...
This book reports on advances in fundamental and applied research at the interface between nanotechnology and biomedical engineering. Gathering peer-reviewed contributions to the 6th International Conference on Nanotechnologies and Biomedical Engineering, ICNBME held on September 20-23, 2023, in Chisinau, Republic of Moldova, this second volume of the proceedings focuses on clinical engineering and instrumentation, bioinformatics, image and signal processing techniques, and new technologies for medical diagnosis, treatment and personalised medicine. With a good balance of theory and practice, the book offers a timely snapshot of multidisciplinary research at the interface between physics, chemistry, biomedicine, materials science, and engineering.
The horrors of World War I left a mark on all of Europe as well as on the United States of America. Within the political, intellectual and academic life the catchphrase of international good will established itself. This term, rather this vision, must not be ignored in the context of the birth hour of the Austro-American Institute of Education, when international education was still in its infancy. The institute ́s founder, Paul Leo Dengler, seized an opportunity presented to him at the end of 1925 – apparently just in time amidst the pioneering spirit following World War I – to propose and present his Amerika-Institut in Vienna to leaders of the Institute of International Education in New York. Eventually, in March of 1926 the Austro-American Institute of Education (AAIE) was founded in Vienna. The idea of a comprehensive history of the AAIE is to shed light on the evolvement of some of the most significant intellectual forces that have been shaping international cultural relations over the past century. Volume I of AAIE ́s history takes a close look at the activities, programs, key-players and the bilateral mission of Dengler‘s institute during the years 1926 –1971.
This book provides both researchers in the academia, students, and industrial experts the chance to exchange new ideas, build relations, and find virtual partners. It is a scientific event whose proceedings have set a very high standard. ICORSE’s distinctive feature is represented by its breadth of topics: mechatronics, integronics and adaptronics; reliable systems engineering; cyber-physical systems; optics; theoretical and applied mechanics; robotics; modelling and simulation; smart integrated control systems; computer imaging processing; smart bio-medical and bio-mechatronic systems; MEMS and NEMS; new materials; sensors and transducers; nano-chemistry, physical chemistry of biological systems; micro- and nanotechnology; system optimization; communications, renewable energy and environmental engineering. They all come together to deliver a clear picture of the state of the art reached in these areas so far.
William McCain, son of William McCain, was born in about 1782 in Maryland. He married Elizabeth Hannah Newcomb, daughter of Samuel Newcomb and Nancy Fritz, in about 1810, probably in Jefferson County, Pennsylvania. They had eleven children. He died in 1862 in Pepin, Wisconsin. Descendants and relatives lived mainly in Wisconsin, Minnesota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Colorado, Oregon and California.
Apart from a few articles, no comprehensive study has been written about the learned men and women in America with Czechoslovak roots. That’s what this compendium is all about, with the focus on immigration from the period of mass migration and beyond, irrespective whether they were born in their European ancestral homes or whether they have descended from them. Czech and Slovak immigrants, including Bohemian Jews, have brought to the New World their talents, their ingenuity, their technical skills, their scientific knowhow, and their humanistic and spiritual upbringing, reflecting upon the richness of their culture and traditions, developed throughout centuries in their ancestral home. Th...
