This book introduces the research process and principles of the
controlled super-coupling nuclear fusion experiment at the
Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST) nuclear fusion
reactor in Hefei, China. It uses straightforward language to
explain how nuclear fusion can provide safe, environmentally
friendly, clean, and inexhaustible energy in future. EAST is the
world's first fully superconducting, non-circular cross-section
tokamak nuclear fusion experimental device, independently developed
by the Chinese Academy of Sciences. This book helps demonstrate
China's cutting-edge scientific and technological advances to the
rest of the world, helps spread the scientific spirit to people
around the globe, and promotes prosperity and development. The book
is intended for all non-experts who would like to learn more about
nuclear energy and related technologies.
Mostindustrialbiotechnologicalprocessesareoperatedempirically.Oneofthe
major di?culties of applying advanced control theories is the
highly nonlinear nature of the processes. This book examines
approaches based on arti?cial intelligencemethods, inparticular,
geneticalgorithmsandneuralnetworks, for monitoring, modelling and
optimization of fed-batch fermentation processes. The main aim of a
process control is to maximize the ?nal product with minimum
development and production costs. This book is interdisciplinary in
nature, combining topics from biotechn- ogy, arti?cial
intelligence, system identi?cation, process monitoring, process
modelling and optimal control. Both simulation and experimental
validation are performed in this study to demonstrate the
suitability and feasibility of proposed methodologies. An online
biomass sensor is constructed using a - current neural network for
predicting the biomass concentration online with only three
measurements (dissolved oxygen, volume and feed rate). Results show
that the proposed sensor is comparable or even superior to other
sensors proposed in the literature that use more than three
measurements. Biote- nological processes are modelled by cascading
two recurrent neural networks. It is found that neural models are
able to describe the processes with high accuracy. Optimization of
the ?nal product is achieved using modi?ed genetic algorithms to
determine optimal feed rate pro?les. Experimental results of the
corresponding production yields demonstrate that genetic algorithms
are powerful tools for optimization of highly nonlinear systems.
Moreover, a c- bination of recurrentneural networks and genetic
algorithms provides a useful and cost-e?ective methodology for
optimizing biotechnological process

A Roadmap to Non-hematopoietic Stem Cell-Based Therapeutics: From
the Bench to the Clinic is a resource that provides an overview of
the principles of stem cell therapy, the promises and challenges of
using stem cells for treating various clinical conditions, and
future perspectives. The overall goal is to facilitate the
translation of basic research on stem cells to clinical
applications. The properties of stem cells from various sources are
reviewed and the advantages and disadvantages of each for clinical
use are discussed. Modifying stem cell properties through
preconditioning strategies using physical, chemical, genetic, and
molecular manipulation to improve cell survival, increase cell
differentiation potential, enhance production of paracrine factors,
and facilitate homing to the site of injury or disease upon
transplantation are reviewed. Various routes of stem cell
administration and dosing, and the duration of effects, are
explored. Individual chapters are written by experts in the field
and focus on the use of stem cells in treating various degenerative
diseases, autoimmune diseases, wound healing, cardiovascular
disease, spinal cord injury, oral and dental diseases, and skeletal
disorders. Finally, experts in the regulatory arena discuss
mechanisms used in different countries for approving the use of
stem cells to treat diseases and many common issues that are
typically encountered while seeking approval for this class of
therapeutic agent.
Ultrawideband (UWB) technology, positioned as the cutting edge of
research and development, paves the way to meet the emerging
demands set by broadband wireless applications, such as high-speed
data transmission, medical imaging, short-range radars,
electromagnetic testing, etc. This breathtaking resource builds
upon the basics of UWB technology to provide a complete compilation
of figures of merit along with a vital state-of-the-art of the
different antenna alternatives that are to be employed according to
the specific application. Without excessive recourse to
mathematics, this volume emphasizes on the UWB antenna design and
equips readers with practical prediction techniques based on simple
formulas and models. The big picture of UWB antenna technology
would not be complete without addressing its applications, and this
will serve to provide consultants with key clues for market gap
analysis. Containing over 150 supporting illustrations and figures,
this comprehensive overview of UWB technology, antenna design and
applications is a vital source of information and reference for
R&D organizations, researchers, practitioners, consultants, RF
professionals and communication engineers.
This comprehensive summary of the state of the art and the ideas
behind the reaction engineering approach (REA) to drying processes
is an ideal resource for researchers, academics and industry
practitioners. Starting with the formulation, modelling and
applications of the lumped-REA, it goes on to detail the use of the
REA to describe local evaporation and condensation, and its
coupling with equations of conservation of heat and mass transfer,
called the spatial-REA, to model non-equilibrium multiphase drying.
Finally, it summarises other established drying models, discussing
their features, limitations and comparisons with the REA.
Application examples featured throughout help fine-tune the models
and implement them for process design and the evaluation of
existing drying processes and product quality during drying.
Further uses of the principles of REA are demonstrated, including
computational fluid dynamics-based modelling, and further expanded
to model other simultaneous heat and mass transfer processes.
