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.
This book contains proceedings from the ICRAIC 2K25 conference, where leading global experts explored cutting-edge innovations in robotics, automation, and AI. It offers valuable insights into the latest trends, challenges, and applications for researchers and professionals.
Birthing the Computer
This volume, the first in a series, charts the progress of computer systems, including the Zuse machines and those by IBM. It details the transition from relays to vacuum tubes, and how this led to the first true computers, resulting in them becoming a commercial enterprise.
In the 1970s, new technology was needed to build on Arctic ice. This book relates the human history and technical innovations developed, moving beyond lab studies to detail the testing, construction and use of ice in real conditions for designers, educators, and students.
Retrofitting the Built Environment
By 2050, emissions from buildings could double. This book presents a powerful decision support system for evaluating environmentally and economically optimal retrofit options for non-domestic buildings, providing essential insights for engineers, architects, and policy makers.
A lucid introduction to system dynamics and control. This book systematically introduces the mathematical tools for modeling engineering systems, followed by the fundamentals of control system design and analysis. Numerous examples and exercises are included for self-study.
The chapters collected here summarise ten years of work on the challenges that renewable energy faces, and represent a selection of the best papers presented at the International Conferences on Renewable Energy and Power Quality (ICREPQ) from 2003 to 2012.
