It investigates many topics, including the fundamentals of solar energy, DC-DC converters, and battery technologies. Detailed analyses of prevalent MPPT algorithms underscore their pivotal impact on system performance. Central to this work is the development and rigorous validation of cutting-edge MPPT strategies using advanced tools such as MATLAB/Simulink and Proteus environments for simulations, alongside experimental setups featuring the dSPACE DS1104 controller board. ![]() Optical Activity: Basic Properties English | 2026 | ISBN: 103291016X | 132 Pages | PDF (True) | 6 MB Optical Activity: Basic Properties provides a clear explanation of the phenomenon of optical rotation. It covers the macroscopic as well as the microscopic. The connection between the macroscopic and microscopic description is discussed and particularly the relation between various physical parameters is explored. The focus is on the order-of-magnitude of these values and in particular why optical activity is not observed in many dielectric materials. The possible role of quantum-mechanical effects for explaining optical activity is also explored. Optical Activity is written at an intermediate level and only requires knowledge at the junior or senior undergraduate level. Bridging the gap between existing textbooks and the in-depth treatment found in review articles, this book presents as a further-reader resource for physics, chemistry, and engineering students. ![]() New Trends in Computational Engineering English | 2026 | ISBN: 3032162521 | 274 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 60 MB The book is the proceedings of the 5th International Conference on Computational Engineering (ICCE 2024), Darmstadt, Germany, 30th September to 2nd October, 2024. Computational Engineering is a modern and ultidisciplinary science for computer based modeling, simulation, analysis and optimization of complex engineering applications and natural phenomena. The book contains an overview of selected approaches from numerics and optimization of Partial Differential Equations as well as uncertainty quantification and machine learning techniques, typically in multiphysics environments. Where possible, application cases from engineering are integrated. ![]() Neuroimaging of Treatment-Related Conditions in the Brain English | 2026 | ISBN: 3032236177 | 264 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 79 MB This book presents the neuroimaging features of the most common conditions related or triggered by therapies for several medical conditions. In the majority of cases, these therapies are mandatory and unavoidable, but it is important to be aware of the potential complications and to identify, diagnose, report and follow-up the main neuroradiological hallmarks of these conditions. Some of these may be underreported, as for example the long-term consequences of radiation therapy, and some are less known, as SMART syndrome. Many conditions may have a broad differential diagnosis and it is not trivial to distinguish a treatment-related component from a spontaneous disease in some cases (PRES or RCVS, ARIA, etc.). Regarding PRES and RCVS, being numerous the treatments potentially associated, a description based on neuroimaigng and to detail the associated drugs is offered within the chapter. Immunotherapy is a new and modern treatment where cerebral complications are present and the increased incidence depends on the increased use of these strategies for many diseases, ranging from neurological and systemic immuno-mediated diseases to Alzheimer's disease to solid and hematologic tumors. ![]() Network Analysis for Economic, Business and Financial History: Methodological Advances and Applications English | 2026 | ISBN: 3032213541 | 532 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 78 MB Social network analysis is increasingly understood to be an important part of historical research, allowing scholars to balance qualitative investigation with rigorous quantitative techniques. Through a global set of case studies spanning ancient, medieval, early modern and modern history, this edited volume demonstrates the interpretative potential of various SNA approaches to different sets of historical data. The chapters contribute to methodological understanding of SNA in economic history, as well as showing through the case studies how network analysis can decode complex social and economic interactions over time, making visible those relational patterns that were invisible to contemporary historical actors. This cutting-edge resource will be appeal widely to academics in economic, business and financial history, as well as statistics researchers and social scientists looking to strengthen their quantitative research skills. ![]() Nanotechtonics: Design, Synthesis, and Applications English | 2026 | ISBN: 9819542154 | 456 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 75 MB Nanotechtonics (or Nanotechtronics) refers to the synthesis, design and construction of novel materials and morphological analysis at the nanoscale range.
