Self-Powered Cyber Physical Systems


Free Download Self-Powered Cyber Physical Systems
English | 2023 | ISBN: 1119841887 | 399 Pages | EPUB | 9 MB
This book is an attempt to aim at a very futuristic vision of achieving self-powered cyber-physical systems by applying a multitude of current technologies such as ULP electronics, thin film electronics, ULP transducers, autonomous wireless sensor networks using energy harvesters at the component level and energy efficient clean energy for powering data centers and machines at the system level. This is the need of the hour for cyber-physical systems since data requires energy when it is stored, transmitted, or converted to other forms. Cyber-physical systems will become energy hungry since the industry trend is towards ubiquitous computing with massive deployment of sensors and actuators. This is evident in using blockchain technologies such as Bitcoin or running epochs for artificial intelligence (AI) applications. Hence, there is a need for research to understand energy patterns and distribution in cyber-physical systems and adopt new technologies to transcend to self-powered cyber-physical systems. This book explores the recent trends in energy management, self-powered devices, and methods in the cyber-physical world.

Nutrition and Physical Activity (2024)


Free Download Nicole Wolfram, Michael Rigby, "Nutrition and Physical Activity: Health Information Sources in EU Member States, and Activities in the Commission, WHO, and European Networks"
English | 2008 | pages: 591 | ISBN: 0387748407, 1441925740 | PDF | 5,3 mb
One important reason for the multitude of research activities in this field is because physical inactivity and nutrition are significant risk factors for many common non-communicable diseases. During the past decades physical inactivity and high dietary fat intakes have become increasingly prevalent in people’s daily lives in industrialised countries. To prevent and to tackle these major diseases, there is a need for a much better understanding of the basic biological and underlying patho-physiological processes, as well as more relevant baseline data describing food intakes and physical activity habits amongst the general population.

Innovation in Physical Activity and Sport Selected Papers from the 1st International Virtual Conference on Technology i


Free Download Borja SaƱudo Corrales, "Innovation in Physical Activity and Sport: Selected Papers from the 1st International Virtual Conference on Technology i"
English | ISBN: 3030928969 | 2022 | 117 pages | PDF | 7 MB
This book reports on cutting-edge digital technologies and their applications in physical activity and sport. Gathering selected chapters from the 1st International Conference on Technology in Physical Activity and Sport, held virtually on November 24-27, 2020, from Seville, Spain, it offers a practice-oriented and evidence-based perspective on how technologies can be used for evaluation and control of different parameter relating to sport, physical activity, and health. It covers how digital technologies can be applied for training and monitoring purposes, and for improving athlete’s performance, how they influence sport habits in different populations, demonstrating their growing influence in sport businesses (such as fitness centers) and management, and provides new findings on the connection between physical activity and human health, suggesting some interesting directions for future studies. With a good balance of laboratory research and information relevant for professional trainers, this book will provide bioengineers, sport scientists, and physiotherapists with timely information and a multidisciplinary perspective on the use of digital technologies to improve fitness, wellbeing and health in different population groups.

Handbook of Hydroxyacetophenones Preparation and Physical Properties


Free Download J. Robert Martin, "Handbook of Hydroxyacetophenones: Preparation and Physical Properties"
English | 2005 | pages: 1114 | ISBN: 1402022905 | PDF | 4,9 mb
Third Edition entitled Aromatic Hydroxyketones: Preparation and Physical Properties to be published in 2010 as a 4-volume handbook set including: Vol. 1: HydroxybenzophenonesVol. 2: Hydroxyacetophenones IVol. 3: Hydroxyacetophenones IIVol. 4: Hydroxypropiophenones, Hydroxyisobutyrophenones, Hydroxypivalophenones and Derivatives——–Hydroxyacetophenones constitute the starting material for a wide variety of syntheses in organic chemistry. They are versatile building blocks serving many different applications, such as specialty polymers, pharmaceuticals and fine chemicals. In this Handbook the diverse ways of obtaining over 3000 hydroxyacetophenones are described and their physico-chemical properties and spectroscopic data references are indicated. The Handbook is presented in dictionary style, with a logical classification of the ketones, making the information easily available for consultation.Ketones are classified methodically. They are thus easily accessible from three tables: – the molecular formula index – the chemical abstracts registry – the usual names index. This completely revised and enlarged edition includes: – 10 additional chapters compared with the previous edition which had just 2 chapters – an additional 1500 ketones – updated information for 1200 ketone entries – the addition of di- and polyketones – approximately 3500 references. This Handbook is the reference on hydroxyacetophenones. It is a powerful synthesis tool for the researcher or industrial producers. Nowhere else are so many compounds covered or the physical properties and relevant syntheses provided. It provides a wide choice of hydroxyketones required to achieve syntheses based upon this range of intermediates.

Christian eschatology and the physical universe


Free Download Christian eschatology and the physical universe By Wilkinson, David
2010 | 242 Pages | ISBN: 0567045455 | PDF | 3 MB
Does matter matter? The scientific picture of the end of the physical Universe has undergone dramatic changes since the turn of the 21st century, with its future characterized by accelerated expansion and futility. Yet Christian theology has been largely silent on this, despite the interest in eschatology in popular culture and in theology itself. What can Christian theology learn from and contribute to the scientific picture of the future of the Universe? Can the biblical narratives of creation and new creation have a fruitful dialogue with scientific discoveries? David Wilkinson shows what a fruitful dialogue this can be. Critiquing the folk eschatology of the Left Behind series, the misguided faith of the scientific optimists and the lack of scientific engagement of the theologians of hope, Wilkinson argues for a rediscovery of the theological theme of new creation and the centrality of bodily resurrection
