Wireless Sensor Systems for Extreme Environments - - Bog - John Wiley & Sons Inc - Plusbog.dk

Provides unique coverage of wireless sensor system applications in space, underwater, underground, and extreme industrial environments in one volume This book covers the challenging aspects of wireless sensor systems and the problems and conditions encountered when applying them in outer space, under the water, below the ground, and in extreme industrial environments. It explores the unique aspects of designs and solutions that address those problems and challenges, and illuminates the connections, similarities, and differences between the challenges and solutions in those various environments. The creation of Wireless Sensor Systems for Extreme Environments is a response to the spread of wireless sensor technology into fields of health, safety, manufacturing, space, environmental, smart cities, advanced robotics, surveillance, and agriculture. It is the first of its kind to present, in a single reference, the unique aspects of wireless sensor system design, development, and deployment in such extreme environments—and to explore the similarities and possible synergies between them. The application of wireless sensor systems in these varied environments has been lagging dramatically behind their application in more conventional environments, making this an especially relevant book for investigators and practitioners in all of these areas. Wireless Sensor Systems for Extreme Environments is presented in five parts that cover: Wireless Sensor Systems for Extreme Environments—Generic SolutionsSpace WSS Solutions and ApplicationsUnderwater and Submerged WSS SolutionsUnderground and Confined Environments WSS SolutionsIndustrial and Other WSS Solutions This book is a welcome guide for researchers, post-graduate students, engineers and scientists who design and build operational and environmental control systems, emergency response systems, and situational awareness systems for unconventional environments.

The Fit and Healthy Dancer - N. C. Craig Sharp - Bog - John Wiley & Sons Inc - Plusbog.dk

Regardless of the grace of their movement, dancers experience injuries more often than the lugs bucking heads on the rugby field or in the boxing ring. On average, dancers are only marginally fitter than the average person on the street, smoke far too much, and do not eat properly, yet still stretch their bodies to extreme levels in the name of performance, and not surprisingly suffer a litany of injuries. This book examines the impact of a variety of dance forms, and puts forth a program for improving training, building stamina, and reducing the risk of injury.

Music and Dyslexia - - Bog - John Wiley & Sons Inc - Plusbog.dk

Music and dyslexia is of particular interest for two reasons. Firstly, research suggests that music education can benefit young dyslexics as it helps them focus on auditory and motor timing skills and highlights the rhythms of language. Secondly, dyslexic musicians at a more advanced level face particular challenges such as sight-reading, written requirements of music examinations and extreme performance nerves. This is a sequel to the highly successful Music and Dyslexia: Opening New Doors, published in 2001. The field of dyslexia has developed rapidly, particularly in the area of neuropsychology. Therefore this book focuses on these research advances, and draws out the aspects of music education that benefit young dyslexics. The contributors also discuss the problems that dyslexic musicians face, and several chapters are devoted to sight-reading and specific strategies that dyslexics can use to help them sight-read. The book offers practical techniques and strategies, to teachers and parents to help them work with young dyslexics and dyslexic musicians.

Resiliency of Power Distribution Systems - - Bog - John Wiley & Sons Inc - Plusbog.dk

RESILIENCY OF POWER DISTRIBUTION SYSTEMS A revolutionary book covering the relevant concepts for resiliency-focused advancements of the distribution power grid Most resiliency and security guidelines for the power industry are focused on power transmission systems. As renewable energy and energy storage increasingly replace fossil-fuel-based power generation over the coming years, geospatially neighboring distributed energy resources will supply a majority of consumers and provide clean power through long transmission lines. These electric power distribution systems—the final stage in the delivery of electric power—carry electricity from the transmission system to individual consumers. New distributed devices will be essential to the grid to manage this variable power generation and enhance reliability and resilience while keeping electricity affordable as the world seeks solutions to climate change and threats from extreme events. In Resiliency of Power Distribution Systems, readers are provided with the tools to understand and enhance resiliency of distribution systems—and thereby, the entire power grid. In a shift from the present design and operation of the power system, the book is focused on improving the grid’s ability to predict, adapt, and respond to all hazards and threats. This, then, acts as a guide to ensure that any incident can be mitigated and responded to promptly and adequately. It also highlights the most advanced and applicable methodologies and architecture frameworks that evaluate degradation, advance proactive action, and transform system behavior to maintain normal operation, under extreme operating conditions. Resiliency of Power Distribution Systems readers will also find: Chapter organization that facilitates quick review of distribution fundamental and easy-but-thorough understanding of the importance of resiliencyReal-world case studies where resilient power systems could have prevented massive financial and energy lossesFrameworks to help mitigate cyber-physical attacks, strategize response on multiple timescales, and optimize operational efficiencies and priorities for the power grid Resiliency of Power Distribution Systems is a valuable reference for power system professionals including electrical engineers, utility operators, distribution system planners and engineers, and manufacturers, as well as members of the research community, energy market experts and policy makers, and graduate students on electrical engineering courses.

Reading's Sedimentary Environments - Bruce Levell - Bog - John Wiley & Sons Inc - Plusbog.dk

The new edition of this well-known classic text again delivers an objective, model-independent view of the different ways in which rocks can be described and interpreted, using facies analysis through an understanding of sedimentary process. Throughout, this fourth edition includes recent work on the dynamics of stratigraphy, especially with respect to understanding extreme events and climate and sea-level change, new information and illustration of resulting 3D geometries, for example from seismic and ground-penetrating radar, new illustrations, including time lapse satellite and seismic imagery, as well as a summary of current research directions. The main part of the book includes specific chapters for each important depositional environment, from terrestrial to coastal and deep sea settings, with the unifying element of process and facies models. Each chapter can be used independently, as it provides a stand-alone discussion of how a particular sedimentary environment can be reconstructed from a facies analysis of a rock succession, a core, or in some cases, a seismic section or a vertical petrophysical log profile. Three new chapters have been included: 'The Application of Biogenic Sedimentary Structures to Facies Analysis' addresses the effect of biota on sedimentation, and the interpretation of evidence of biological activity such as burrowing and microbial life; 'Pelagic Environments' discusses Milankovitch cyclicity and time series records of climate change, as well as what can and cannot be learned about the evolution of the oceans; 'Extra-terrestrial Sedimentology' summarizes what is known about the sedimentology and sedimentary facies of Mars, the moons of Jupiter, the Moon and other solar system bodies. These additions are in line with a broader approach to Earth Systems Science and reflect the current developments in the field.
