Gyro-Free Inertial Navigation Technology (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2021): Hongjin Zhou, Yunhai Zhong, Hui Song, Su Wang Gyro-Free Inertial Navigation Technology (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2021)
Hongjin Zhou, Yunhai Zhong, Hui Song, Su Wang
R5,086 Discovery Miles 50 860 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This book focuses on gyro-free inertial navigation technology, which is used to measure not only linear motion parameters but also angular rates. Since no gyroscopes are used, the key technologies, such as initial alignment, attitude resolution, and error calibration, are very different than those used in traditional methods. Discussing each key technology in gyro-free inertial navigation system (GFINS) manufacture in a separate chapter, the book features easy-to-understand, detailed illustrations, to allow all those involved in inertial navigation to gain a better grasp of GFINS manufacture, including accelerometer setting principles; initial alignment; quaternion-based, attitude resolution algorithms; and accelerometer de-noise methods.

Solar-Energy-Mediated Methane Conversion Over Nanometal and Semiconductor Catalysts (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2020): Hui Song Solar-Energy-Mediated Methane Conversion Over Nanometal and Semiconductor Catalysts (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2020)
Hui Song
R2,873 Discovery Miles 28 730 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This book demonstrates that solar energy, the most abundant and clean renewable energy, can be utilized to drive methane activation and conversion under mild conditions. The book reports that coupling solar energy and thermal energy can significantly enhance methane conversion at mild temperatures using plasmonic nanometal-based catalysts, with a substantial decrease in apparent activation energy of methane conversion. Furthermore, this book, for the first time, reports the direct photocatalytic methane oxidation into liquid oxygenates (methanol and formaldehyde) with only molecular oxygen in pure water at room temperature with high yield and selectivity over nanometals and semiconductors (zinc oxide and titanium dioxide). These findings are a big stride toward methane conversion and inspire researchers to develop strategies for efficient and selective conversion of methane to high-value-added chemicals under mild conditions.

DevOps for Trustworthy Smart IoT Systems (Hardcover): Nicolas Ferry, Hui Song, Andreas Metzger, Erkuden Rios DevOps for Trustworthy Smart IoT Systems (Hardcover)
Nicolas Ferry, Hui Song, Andreas Metzger, Erkuden Rios
R2,934 Discovery Miles 29 340 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

ENACT is a research project funded by the European Commission under its H2020 program. The project consortium consists of twelve industry and research member organisations spread across the whole EU. The overall goal of the ENACT project was to provide a novel set of solutions to enable DevOps in the realm of trustworthy Smart IoT Systems. Smart IoT Systems (SIS) are complex systems involving not only sensors but also actuators with control loops distributed all across the IoT, Edge and Cloud infrastructure. Since smart IoT systems typically operate in a changing and often unpredictable environment, the ability of these systems to continuously evolve and adapt to their new environment is decisive to ensure and increase their trustworthiness, quality and user experience. DevOps has established itself as a software development life-cycle model that encourages developers to continuously bring new features to the system under operation without sacrificing quality. This book reports on the ENACT work to empower the development and operation as well as the continuous and agile evolution of SIS, which is necessary to adapt the system to changes in its environment, such as newly appearing trustworthiness threats.

Major Law and Policy Issues in the South China Sea - European and American Perspectives (Paperback): Yann-Huei Song, Keyuan Zou Major Law and Policy Issues in the South China Sea - European and American Perspectives (Paperback)
Yann-Huei Song, Keyuan Zou
R1,677 Discovery Miles 16 770 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

Major law and policy issues in the South China Sea are discussed mainly from the perspectives of leading American and European scholars in the study of the complex South China Sea disputes. The issues include regional maritime cooperation and regime building, Southeast Asian countries' responses to the Chinese assertiveness, China's historic claims, maritime boundary delimitation and excessive maritime claims, military activities and the law of the sea, freedom of navigation and its impact on the problem, the dispute between Vietnam and China, confidence-building measures and U.S.-Taiwan-China relations in the South China Sea, and Taiwan's role in the resolution to the South China Sea issues. Over the past three years, there have been several incidents in the South China Sea between the claimants, and also between the claimants and non-claimants over fisheries, collection of seismic data, exploration for oil and gas resources, and exercise of freedom of navigation. Third party concerns and involvement in the South China Sea disputes have been increasing as manifested in actions taken by the United States, India, and Japan. It is therefore important to examine South China Sea disputes from the legal and political perspective and from the view point of American and European experts who have been studying South China Sea issues for many years.

Firstly, it presents the advantages and disadvantages of offshore wind power, then further discusses about the status quo and challenges for wind power programs along the Maritime Silk Road and offer suggestions. A wind energy evaluation system was proposed with the Maritime Silk Road as a case study, including climatic features of wind power (temporal-spatial distribution), long-term climatic trend and mechanism, short-term forecast of wind energy, mid- and long-term projection of wind energy, technology of wind energy evaluation on key point or vital region and offshore wind energy dataset construction, to provide systematic and scientific reference for wind power evaluation and utilization. This book is one of the series of publications on 21st century Maritime Silk Road (shortened as "Maritime Silk Road"). It covers the characteristics of the marine environment and marine renewable energy, remote islands and reefs construction, climate change, early warning of wave disasters, legal escort, marine environment and energy big data construction, etc., contributing to the safe and efficient construction of the Maritime Silk Road. It aims to improve our knowledge of the ocean, thus, to improve the capacity for marine construction, enhance the viability of remote islands and reefs, ease the energy crisis and protect the ecological environment, improve the quality of life of residents along the Maritime Silk Road, and protect the rights, interests of the countries and regions participating in the construction of the Maritime Silk Road. It is a valuable reference for decision-makers, researchers, and marine engineers working in the related fields.

Secure Wireless Sensor Networks (Paperback): Hui Song Secure Wireless Sensor Networks (Paperback)
Hui Song
R1,519 Discovery Miles 15 190 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Sensor networks are ideal candidates for a wide range of applications, such as monitoring of critical infrastructures, data acquisition in hazardous environments, and military operations. It is necessary to guarantee the security and resilience of sensor networks (as well as their applications) as they become more and more popular. Despite many security schemes have been proposed to protect building blocks such as routing and key management, some other building blocks (e.g., mobile sink and time synchronization) are largely ignored. This book, therefore, provides security building blocks for sensor networks and develops a potential killer application for sensor networks. The two proposed security building blocks will help the sensor networks tolerate mobile sink compromises and be resilient against attacks on the time synchronization, respectively. SVATS, a sensor-network-based vehicle anti-theft system, is designed to address the limitations of high cost, high false-alarm rate and the easy disabling drawbacks of the current vehicle theft tracking and alarming systems. This system can detect vehicle theft within seconds and track stolen vehicles as well.
