Trusted Routing Mechanisms
As our business and private lives rely on computing systems, digital security is imperative. This book offers solutions that ensure the integrity and confidentiality of network traffic by protecting data from third parties.
This book provides solutions to problems in solid-state physics that have eluded scientific explanation for decades, tackling mysteries like the structure of thin films, the existence of amorphous metals, and the cause of the Giant Hall Effect.
This book delves into the foundations of physics and our understanding of the universe. It covers cosmology from origin myths to dark energy, focusing on the open problems and unsolved puzzles that inevitably intertwine physics, astrophysics, and philosophy.
This book introduces gear drive fundamentals and the theoretical background of load capacity. It focuses on strength analyses for metal, sintered, and polymer gears, describing surface pitting, tooth root capacity, and fatigue design approaches with practical examples.
By coupling gravitational and magnetic fields, a normally weak relativistic effect is enhanced. This outward dragging increases the rotational velocities of galaxies, presenting important implications for the missing mass problem in galactic dynamics.
This book provides theory on artificial intelligence techniques and insight on application development. It is for academicians, practitioners, and students seeking a deep understanding of the latest paradigms in AI to develop intelligent systems for the benefit of humanity.
This book contains a selection of the best papers on power quality from 2003 to 2012. It provides an up-to-date reference for professional engineers, researchers, and postgraduate students interested in the state of the field.
The 21st century presents many challenges to the hazard manager as changing conditions reshape disaster impacts and human vulnerability. This book examines evolving approaches to natural hazards, offering insights into applied research to inspire future work.
Space, Life, Science and Stories
Surges of public interest in life from the cosmos often leave people confused and exploited. This book explores the causes of these surges, the stories they generate, and the relevant science, allowing you to become aware of the facts and judge them for yourself.
This book demonstrates why integrating small residential photovoltaics into the public grid is one of the best solutions to our energy problems, with low impact on power systems. It introduces a new concept: simultaneous on/off grid operation with a triple function inverter.
This book covers the key principles, theories, and applications of information and communication technologies for academic and professional audiences. It explores network architecture, information theory, wireless communications, network security, and optimisation methods.
Developments in Management Science in Engineering 2018
This book identifies the main research categories of Management Science in Engineering (MSE), and evaluates and classifies each journal in this field. Developed by leading experts, it is of interest to scientists, researchers, practitioners, engineers, and students.
For physics scholars and general readers, this book explores the action of ultra-low doses on biological systems. It covers medicinal remedies like homeopathy, the influence of color and form, and the Twin Correlation.
This book is a guide to performing uniform broadband measurements with low uncertainty. It discusses radiometric, photometric, color, and LED measurements, and shows how to avoid large errors by standardizing the measurement procedure and using properly selected meters.
This book presents a complex approach to material composition determination using joint X-ray spectra of fluorescence, scattering, and diffraction. These methods widen the application of X-ray analysis for specialists in solid state physics and students.
MATLAB and its integrated tool SIMULINK are leading software packages for solving complex engineering and scientific problems. This book closes the gap between the software and its users, providing the requisite understanding to enhance employment opportunities.
This collection of essays tackles classic questions: What is life? What is consciousness? It explores whether evolution is predetermined, if science and spirituality can harmonize, and if AI is at odds with the human spirit. Each chapter includes science fiction stories on AI.
Digital transformation has changed marketing, but its impact on consumer behaviour still requires exploration. This book sheds light on the challenges and solutions for companies, investigating customer experience, influencer marketing, and trust for the online consumer.
Unconventional Aeronautical Investigatory Methods
The 1972 crash of Alitalia flight AZ 112 killed 115 people and was blamed on pilot negligence. This book reveals the truth: the disaster was not an accident but a criminal act, a symptom of the geopolitical tensions gripping Italy and Europe in that decade.
This book provides a self-contained and accessible introduction to dynamical systems and differential geometry via MAPLE. It is suitable for graduate and advanced students in mathematics, engineering, and physics for both self-study and teaching a semester-long course.
