Environmental Management in Practice

by Elzbieta Broniewicz

Environmental Management in Practice by Elzbieta Broniewicz

In recent years the topic of environmental management has become very common. In sustainable development conditions, central and local governments much more often notice the need of acting in ways that diminish negative impact on environment. Environmental management may take place on many different levels – starting from global level, e.g. climate changes, through national and regional level (environmental policy) and ending on micro level.

This publication shows many examples of environmental management. The diversity of presented aspects within environmental management and approaching the subject from the perspective of various countries contributes greatly to the development of environmental management field of research.

Electromagnetic Waves Propagation in Complex Matter

by Ahmed Kishk

Electromagnetic Waves Propagation in Complex Matter by Ahmed Kishk

This volume is based on the contributions of several authors in electromagnetic waves propagations. Several issues are considered. The contents of most of the chapters are highlighting non classic presentation of wave propagation and interaction with matters. This volume bridges the gap between physics and engineering in these issues. Each chapter keeps the author notation that the reader should be aware of as he reads from chapter to the other.

Adaptive Filtering Applications

by Lino Garcia

Adaptive Filtering Applications by Lino Garcia

Adaptive filtering is useful in any application where the signals or the modeled system vary over time. The configuration of the system and, in particular, the position where the adaptive processor is placed generate different areas or application fields such as: prediction, system identification and modeling, equalization, cancellation of interference, etc. which are very important in many disciplines such as control systems, communications, signal processing, acoustics, voice, sound and image, etc.

The book consists of noise and echo cancellation, medical applications, communications systems and others hardly joined by their heterogeneity. Each application is a case study with rigor that shows weakness/strength of the method used, assesses its suitability and suggests new forms and areas of use.

The problems are becoming increasingly complex and applications must be adapted to solve them. The adaptive filters have proven to be useful in these environments of multiple input/output, variant-time behaviors, and long and complex transfer functions effectively, but fundamentally they still have to evolve. This book is a demonstration of this and a small illustration of everything that is to come.

Advances in Robot Navigation

by Alejandra Barrera

Advances in Robot Navigation by Alejandra Barrera

Robot navigation includes different interrelated activities such as perception – obtaining and interpreting sensory information; exploration – the strategy that guides the robot to select the next direction to go; mapping – the construction of a spatial representation by using the sensory information perceived; localization – the strategy to estimate the robot position within the spatial map; path planning – the strategy to find a path towards a goal location being optimal or not; and path execution, where motor actions are determined and adapted to environmental changes.

This book integrates results from the research work of authors all over the world, addressing the abovementioned activities and analyzing the critical implications of dealing with dynamic environments. Different solutions providing adaptive navigation are taken from nature inspiration, and diverse applications are described in the context of an important field of study: social robotics.

Air Quality-Models and Applications

by Nicolas Mazzeo

Air Quality-Models and Applications by Nicolas Mazzeo

Air pollution has been a major transboundary problem and a matter of global concern for decades. High concentrations of different air pollutants are particularly harmful to large cities residents, where numerous anthropogenic activities strongly influence the quality of air.

Although there are many books on the subject, the one in front of you will hopefully fulfill some of the gaps in the area of air quality monitoring and modeling, and be of help to graduate students, professionals and researchers. The book is divided in five sections, dealing with mathematical models and computing techniques used in air pollution monitoring and forecasting; air pollution models and application; measuring methodologies in air pollution monitoring and control; experimental data on urban air pollution in China, Egypt, Northeastern U.S, Brazil and Romania; and finally, the health effects due to exposure to benzene, and on the influence of air pollutants on the acute respiratory diseases in children in Mexico.
