Strawberries in January, fresh tomatoes year-round and New Zealand lamb at all times – these well-travelled foods have a carbon footprint the size of an SUV. But there is a burgeoning local food movement taking place in Canadian cities, farms and shops that is changing both the way we eat and the way we think about food.

Mathematical Fuzzy Logic in the Emerging Fields of Engineering, Finance, and Computer Sciences


Free Download Mathematical Fuzzy Logic in the Emerging Fields of Engineering, Finance, and Computer Sciences by Amit K. Shukla
English | PDF | 2023 | 252 Pages | ISBN : 3036559361 | 17.1 MB
Mathematical fuzzy logic (MFL) specifically targets many-valued logic and has significantly contributed to the logical foundations of fuzzy set theory (FST). It explores the computational and philosophical rationale behind the uncertainty due to imprecision in the backdrop of traditional mathematical logic. Since uncertainty is present in almost every real-world application, it is essential to develop novel approaches and tools for efficient processing.

English | 2023 | ISBN: 3031291514 | 462 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 46 MB
Using a designed vector field to guide robots to follow a given geometric desired path has found a range of practical applications, such as underwater pipeline inspection, warehouse navigation, and highway traffic monitoring. It is thus in great need to build a rigorous theory to guide practical implementations with formal guarantees. It is even so when multiple robots are required to follow predefined desired paths or maneuver on surfaces and coordinate their motions to efficiently accomplish repetitive and laborious tasks.

Introduction to Quantum Fields on a Lattice


Free Download Introduction to Quantum Fields on a Lattice
English | 2023 | ISBN: 1009402749 | 286 Pages | PDF (True) | 2 MB
This book provides a concise introduction to quantum fields on a lattice: a precise and non-perturbative definition of quantum field theory obtained by replacing continuous space-time by a discrete set of points on a lattice. The path integral on the lattice is explained in concrete examples using weak and strong coupling expansions. Fundamental concepts such as ‘triviality’ of Higgs fields and confinement of quarks and gluons into hadrons are described and illustrated with the results of numerical simulations. The book also provides an introduction to chiral symmetry and chiral gauge theory, as well as quantized non-Abelian gauge fields, scaling and universality. Based on the lecture notes of a course given by the author, this book contains many explanatory examples and exercises, and is suitable as a textbook for advanced undergraduate and graduate courses. Originally published in 2002, this title has been reissued as an Open Access publication on Cambridge Core.

English | 2019 | ISBN: 0750307188 | 328 Pages | PDF | 12 MB
Static Fields and Potentials describes two of the fundamental interactions in nature: gravity and electromagnetism. The book introduces the associated fields, potentials, and energies and explains the relationship among them. It shows how these interactions manifest themselves in different ways, from the formation of stars to the operation of thunderstorms. The book also demonstrates how they are harnessed technologically in applications, such as hydroelectricity, electrical circuitry, and DNA finger-printing.

Machine Learning Algorithm for Fatigue Fields in Additive Manufacturing


Free Download Machine Learning Algorithm for Fatigue Fields in Additive Manufacturing (Werkstofftechnische Berichte │ Reports of Materials Science and Engineering) by Mustafa Mamduh Mustafa Awd
English | January 2, 2023 | ISBN: 3658402369 | 293 pages | MOBI | 33 Mb
Fatigue failure of structures used in transportation, industry, medical equipment, and electronic components needs to build a link between cutting-edge experimental characterization and probabilistically grounded numerical and artificially intelligent tools. The physics involved in this process chain is computationally prohibitive to comprehend using traditional computation methods. Using machine learning and Bayesian statistics, a defect-correlated estimate of fatigue strength was developed. Fatigue, which is a random variable, is studied in a Bayesian-based machine learning algorithm. The stress-life model was used based on the compatibility condition of life and load distributions. The defect-correlated assessment of fatigue strength was established using the proposed machine learning and Bayesian statistics algorithms. It enabled the mapping of structural and process-induced fatigue characteristics into a geometry-independent load density chart across a wide range of fatigue regimes.
