Image Processing for Automated Diagnosis of Cardiac Diseases
highlights current and emerging technologies for the automated
diagnosis of cardiac diseases. It presents concepts and practical
algorithms, including techniques for the automated diagnosis of
organs in motion using image processing. This book is suitable for
biomedical engineering researchers, engineers and scientists in
research and development, and clinicians who want to learn more
about and develop advanced concepts in image processing to overcome
the challenges of automated diagnosis of heart disease.
Distributed Energy Resources in Microgrids: Integration, Challenges
and Optimization unifies classically unconnected aspects of
microgrids by considering them alongside economic analysis and
stability testing. In addition, the book presents well-founded
mathematical analyses on how to technically and economically
optimize microgrids via distributed energy resource integration.
Researchers and engineers in the power and energy sector will find
this information useful for combined scientific and economical
approaches to microgrid integration. Specific sections cover
microgrid performance, including key technical elements, such as
control design, stability analysis, power quality, reliability and
resiliency in microgrid operation.
Large rural areas in some regions of the world are still grappling
with the challenge of electrification. The optimal solution is to
provide reliable energy without adding more fossil fuel plants by
using distributed renewable generation. Microgrids are part of that
solution; they are small networks of electricity users, with a
local generator that is attached to a centralized larger grid, but
which is also able to function independently. They need to be
robust and resilient in order to provide reliable power, including
in harsh climates. For remote areas microgrids have the advantage
of offering an electricity supply even if there are problems with
the larger power grid. This book focuses on the challenges of rural
electrification, particularly in poorer regions. It covers low
voltage DC distribution system for various applications including
charging of electric vehicles (EV). Written by a large team of
authors with a wide range of relevant experiences, the book
addresses microgrid architectures, converters, energy storage,
control, EV integration, business models and economic scheduling,
and the role of blockchain technology. The authors have used case
studies to provide illustrative examples of the technologies
discussed and solutions proposed.
