Facing the Unexpected in Flight
Fundamentals of Helicopter Dynamics
C. Venkatesan
Human Limitations and Interaction with Technology in the Cockpit
This is an introductory book on helicopter dynamics. The aim of
this book is to introduce the students/engineers to the basic
principles of helicopter dynamics. The book focuses on three
major topics: (i) rotor blade idealization and blade dynamics in
flap, lag, and torsion modes; (ii) rotor blade aeroelastic stability
(coupled flap-lag and coupled flap-torsion); (iii) coupled
rotor-fuselage dynamics. It covers hover, forward flight, and
other maneuver flights. Starting from basic physics of rotating
systems, the equations of motion have been derived in vector
form.
Jean Pinet, Retired experimental test pilot, member and
past president of the Air and Space Academy
Airline pilots often have to face sudden, unexpected situations
that can become potentially dangerous. This book identifies
common denominators in pilots’ reactions to dangerous,
unexpected events and highlights behavior common to all in
complex, stressful situations. It applies an original cognitive
analysis method to highlight actual operational behavior within
a quick succession of short mental segments lasting less than
one minute. This rational method of assessing human potential
should contribute to a more effective distribution of roles and
help to optimize the pilot–aircraft interface.

Hao Yu, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore and
Yang Shang, Advantest, Singapore
This book offers a balanced view of techniques for solving
electromagnetic problems, refusing to overemphasize the
importance of analytical methods at the expense of numerical
techniques. Carefully selected topics provide an appreciation of
the kinds of electromagnetic problems that can be solved
exactly. Beginning with a review of basic electromagnetics, the
text covers separation of variables, series expansion, conformal
transformation, and perturbation methods, as well as Fourier
sine and cosine, two-sided Fourier, Laplace, Hankel, and Mellin
transform techniques. Simple examples, worked-out problems,
and end-of-chapter exercises demonstrate various applications.
This book shows that with the use of metamaterials, one can
have coherent THz signal generation, amplification, transmission,
and detection for phase-arrayed CMOS transistors with
significantly improved performance. Offering detailed coverage
from device to system, the book describes the design and
application of metamaterials in actual CMOS integrated circuits,
includes real circuit examples and chip demonstrations with
measurement results, and also evaluates system performance
after CMOS-based system-on-chip integration. The book reflects
the latest research progress and provides a state-of-the-art
reference on CMOS-based metamaterial devices and mm-wave

Theory of Waveguides and Transmission Lines
Weather Radar Polarimetry with MATLAB®
Edward F. Kuester, University of Colorado Boulder, USA
Guifu Zhang, University of Oklahoma, Norman, USA
This book provides the principles of operation of electromagnetic waveguides and
transmission lines. The approach is divided between mathematical descriptions of basic
behaviors and treatment of specific types of waveguide structures. Classic transmission
lines, their basic properties, their connection to lumped-element networks, and the distortion
of pulses are discussed followed by a full field analysis of waveguide modes. Modes of
specific kinds of waveguides - traditional hollow metallic waveguides, dielectric (including
optical) waveguides, etc.are discussed. Problems of excitation and scattering of waveguide
modes are addressed followed by real systems and performance.
This book presents the fundamentals of polarimetric radar remote sensing through
understanding wave scattering and propagation in geophysical media filled with
hydrometers and other objects. The text characterizes the physical, statistical, and
electromagnetic properties of hydrometers and establishes the relations between radar
observables and physical state parameters. It introduces advanced remote sensing
techniques (such as polarimetric phased array radar) and retrieval methods for physical
parameters. The book also illustrates applications of polarimetric radar measurements in
hydrometer classification, particle size distribution retrievals, microphysical parameterization,
and weather quantification and forecast.

Infusing Innovation Into Organizations
Maintenance Audits Handbook
A Systems Engineering Approach
A Performance Measurement Framework
Edited by M. Ann Garrison Darrin, Johns Hopkins University, Applied Physics Lab,
Laurel, Maryland, USA and Jerry Krill, The Johns Hopkins University, Applied Physics

Diego Galar Pascual, Luleå University of Technology, Sweden
Infusing Innovation into Organizations: A Systems Engineering Approach shows how
systems engineering approaches can mitigate issues that derive from resistance to change.
The systems engineering approach offers two key benefits. First, it is a discipline involving
systematic analysis of problems encountered and their potential solutions. The second
benefit is that the systems engineering approach offers a holistic solution, through providing
a long-term infrastructure. The approach connects every participant in the organizational
chain, and allows for the creation of systemic change that can influence the behavior of
the whole system.

It also covers analytical solutions, such as those provided by the
substitution principle, which can then be used to verify Euler
codes.
This text starts with the concepts of fluid statics, and moves on
to the control/volume approach of determining fluid flow. It
offers a careful explanation of topics, and use of step-by-step
examples, in presenting fluid mechanics so that beginning
students can make sense of fluid concepts and calculations. The

Essentials of Computational Fluid Dynamics
Jens-Dominik Mueller, Queen Mary University of London,
England, UK
Approaching the material from the viewpoint of a user of a
commercial flow package, this book initially limits the description
of the mathematics to the level that is strictly needed to make
the correct choices when setting up a case in a commercial flow
solver. It discusses the sources of errors in FD solutions using
simple examples with finite differences, and they are
demonstrated with mesh convergence studies. It focuses on
the understanding of how the flow physics interact with a typical
finite-volume discretization.

Consider a Spherical Patent
Optimization
IP and Patenting in Technology Business
Principles and Algorithms
Joseph E. Gortych, Opticus IP Law PLLC, Sarasota, Florida,
USA
Using examples of actual patents and patent portfolios of real
technology businesses, this practical and engaging book
provides key insights and perspectives on the reality of how
patents are used and abused in the technology business. It
explains often misunderstood patent phenomena, such as how
and why invalid patents are issued by the patent office, and
covers important topics frequently ignored or glossed over,
including provisional patent applications, independent inventors,
obviousness, and the dynamic interplay between infringeability
and patent validity.
Michel Bierlaire, EPFL, Lausanne, Switzerland
Optimization algorithms are critical tools for engineers, but
difficult to use since none of them are universal in application.
This introductery text builds up the knowledge set, from the
basics, so that engineering students can understand the
processes that govern optimization processes. Reinforcing theory
with practice, the book includes discussions on how to match
applications to appropiate methods and why certain approaches
are not adapted to specific requirements. Following the success
and adoption of the French version of this book with
undergraduate and graduate students, the author has translated
and substantially updated and reworked this new English edition.

nanometer-size mechanical structures show exceptional
properties generated by their reduced dimensions. These
properties enable new sensing concepts and transduction
mechanisms that will allow enhancing the performances of the
actual devices to their fundamental limits. The book is important
because no other books with similar topics focus only on
nanocantilever beams. The aim of the book is to provide an
excellent reference for an audience with a diversity of

techniques, which may include statistical estimation, computer
simulation or functional approximation. This volume presents
methods for the study of approximate iterative algorithms,
providing tools for the derivation of error bounds and
convergence rates, and for the optimal design of such
algorithms. Techniques of functional analysis are used to derive
analytical relationships between approximation methods and
convergence properties for general classes of algorithms. The
volume provides the necessary background in functional analysis
and probability theory and presents extensive applications to Markov decision processes.

This proposed research monograph is, uniquely, devoted to a systematic presentation of
several very recent results (and some of them appearing for the first time) referring to
differential equations and inclusions subjected to nonlocal implicit initial conditions. The
major themes of the book consist of a systematic study of the existence, regularity and
continuous dependence on the data. The main abstract results are accompanied by
illuminating examples describing the evolution of various phenomena; this points out the
degree of generality of the developed theory and second, clarifes why the study of these
rather abstract problems is needed in applications.

An Introduction
Hiroyuki Shima, University of Yamanashi, Japan
This book provides an introduction to functional analysis for
non-experts in mathematics. As such, it is distinct from most
other books on the subject that are intended for mathematicians.
Concepts are explained concisely with visual materials, making
it accessible for those unfamiliar with graduate-level
mathematics. Topics include topology, vector spaces, tensor
spaces, Lebesgue integrals, and operators, to name a few. Each
chapter explains, concisely, the purpose of the specific topic
and the benefit of understanding it. Researchers and graduate
students in physics, mechanical engineering, and information
science will benefit from this view of functional analysis.

Fuzzy Differential Equations and Applications for
Engineers and Scientists
Handbook of Applications of Chaos Theory
S. Chakraverty, Smita Tapaswini, National Institute of Technology, Rourkela, Orissa,
India and Diptiranjan Behera, National Institute of Technology, Rourkela, Orissa, India
This book serves as a valuable reference for scientists, engineers and practitioners in the
fields of science, technology and society where chaos theory is used to model unexplored
cases and give rise to new applications. The need for a handbook which includes the main
parts of the chaos theory in various fields, along with related applications, is obvious. The
book is designed to be informative and useful to people from a variety of fields with different
educations and specific needs.
When variables and parameters within differential equations are not defined exactly but
are vague, imprecise or incomplete due to errors in measurement or other factors, one
may use fuzzy environment in parameters, variables and initial conditions in place of crisp
ones, turning the general differential equations into Fuzzy Differential Equations (FDEs).
This book presents reliable and efficient numerical techniques for the solution of FDEs viz.
fuzzy ordinary and partial, fuzzy linear and nonlinear and fuzzy arbitrary order differential
equations.

The book considers the basics of mathematical modeling of
reflexive processes in control. The models of informational and
strategic reflexion allow describing and studying the behavior
of reflexing subjects, investigating the relationship between
payoffs gained by agents and their reflexion ranks, solving
problems of informational and reflexive control in organizational, economic, social and
other systems, and military applications among others (the book contains over 30 examples
of possible applications in these fields), describing uniformly many phenomena connected
with reflexion, viz., implicit control, informational control via the mass media and reflexion
in psychology.

Pseudolinear Functions and Optimization
Scattering of Waves
Shashi Kant Mishra and Balendu Bhooshan Upadhyay
Applied Theory
This is the first book to focus exclusively on pseudolinear
functions, a class of generalized convex functions. The book
discusses the properties, characterizations, and applications of
pseudolinear functions in nonlinear optimization problems. It
encompasses nearly all the published literature on the subject
along with new results on semi-infinite nonlinear programming
problems. The authors present optimality conditions and duality
results for many types of optimization problems. They also
extend pseudolinear functions to higher-level problems and
explore applications to hospital management and economics.

Series: Monographs and Research Notes in Mathematics
One of the most important areas of study in mathematics, physics and engineering involves
scattering and the propagation of scalar and vector waves. This topic is very mathematical,
which often obscures the physics and engineering of scattering and propagation. It is the
goal of this author to introduce this topic in a manner where the emphasis is placed on
the physical interpretations of the mathematics involved without losing the mathematical
rigor. Lastly, a number of important developments in this field are discussed that have
never been mentioned in books before as they are hidden away in many different journal
articles.

textbook which develops the understanding of a small part of
the field, but a book about random encounters and about the
strengths and the foibles of living as a physicist and engineer
for half a century. It presents the author’s personal views on
science, engineering, and life and is illustrated by a number of
lively stories about various events, some of which shaped his

and nanoelectronic systems while keeping an eye on real
applications of such technologies.
A comprehensive overview, this book focuses on two directions
of study: discovery of new effects that take place in magnetic
wires and optimization of the magnetic, electrical, and
mechanical properties of the wires, taking into account the
technological application. The book presents the idea of moving
to nanoscale, maintaining the achieved optimal parameters of
microwires. While the focus remains on glass-covered wires of
micrometer scale, it covers the first steps of the movement to
"nano" range as an example of the versatility of the basic effects
initially discovered for microscale.

Glass and ceramics are brittle in nature, but are often used in
electronics, space, defense, biomedical, and many day-to-day
applications, where mechanical disintegration may cause total
failure of the application. Evaluation and in-depth knowledge
of nanomechanical characterization helps to improve process
parameters or may help identify the critical failure point.
Therefore, it is important to measure mechanical properties such
as hardness and Young’s modulus at the local microstructural
length scale. This book presents a collection of recent research
findings of nanoindentation issues in brittle materials.

Edited by Luciano De Sio, University of Calabria, Arcavacata
di Rende, Italy
Plasmonic nanoparticles (NPs) represent an outstanding class
of nanomaterials that have the capability to localize light at the
nanoscale by exploiting a phenomenon called "localized
plasmon resonance." This book reviews recent efforts devoted
to the utilization of NPs in many research fields, such as
photonics, optics, and plasmonics. In this framework, a particular
interest is devoted to "active plasmonics," a quite broad concept
that indicates those applications in which NPs play an "active"
role, such as the realization of gain-assisted means, utilization
of NPs embedded in liquid crystalline and flexible materials, and
exploitation of renewable solar energy.

This work explains how the non interaction of waves principle
applies to both classical and quantum optics. Focusing on waves
in the linear domain, it explores ambiguous, contradictory, and
paradoxical concepts that exist in spite of apparently correct
mathematical formulations. The author reformulates classical
and quantum optics mathematics by clearly defining the
methodology used for gathering information from these
measurements. The book provides the tools to properly validate
a model of these measurements, offering a more coherent and
simpler understanding of classical and quantum optics.

Charged Particle Optics Theory
Device Physics of Organic Light-Emitting Diodes
An Introduction
Dongge Ma, Changchun Institute of Applied chemistry, P.R. of China
Timothy R. Groves, SUNY Polytechnic Institute, State
University of New York, USA
Series: Optical Sciences and Applications of Light
This book identifies the most important concepts of charged
particle optics theory, and derives each from the first principles
of physics. Beginning witha non-mathematical survey of the
optical nature of a charged particle beam, the text discusses
both geometrical and wave optics, describes the two-body
particle scattering problem, presents electron emission as a
practical consequence of quantum mechanics, and addresses
the Fourier transform and the linear second-order differential
equation. It includes problems to amplify and fill in the
theoretical details, with solutions presented separately.
This book illustrates the basic physical processes of organic semiconductors in OLED devices,
including metal/organic semiconductors, charge carrier injection of organic semiconductors,
charge carrier transport of organic semiconductors, doping of organic semiconductors,
magnetic effect of organic semiconductors, exciton dynamics, efficiency rolloff and light
out-coupling. These are very important in deeply understanding the working principles of
OLEDs and further optimizing and designing the high performance OLEDs.

It helps students understand the spatial arrangements of atoms,
which determine properties of the matter and resulting spectra.
It also presents the application of molecular symmetry on optical
spectra using group theory.
This book provides a comprehensive overview of the field of dielectrics. The new edition
covers the most recent advances in theory and experiments and discusses non-traditional
applications. It also includes four new chapters: Nanodielectrics, Breakdown in Solids,
Breakdown in Liquid Dielectrics and Testing Methods. The book covers polarization
phenomena in dielectrics, the complex dielectric constant in an alternating electric field,
dielectric relaxation and interfacial polarization, the measurement of absorption and

possibilities thanks to the use of nanostructured surfaces. The
excitation of localized surface plasmon and the use of specific
shapes of nanostructures have made it possible to gain an
incredible sensitivity in these spectroscopic techniques. This
book provides the reader with an overview of enhanced
spectroscopies. Following an introduction to plasmon and
electromagnetic effects arising in metallic nanostructures, it
reviews the spectroscopic techniques enhanced by the presence of either a nanostructure
or a tip.

is the first one dedicated to discuss the design of control algorithms for doubly fed induction
generators using sliding modes, inverse optimal control and neural networks; additionally
and includes real-time implementations.
The GMR neural network is the only neural algorithm able to map discontinuous and
multivalued functions. This book systematically presents this very powerful algorithm for
the mapping approximation, together with its hardware implementation and several
applications. Designed to make this neural network as wide spread as possible, the GMR
theory presented in this book is mature enough for the development of many applications.

Flexible AC Transmission Systems
A Practical Guide
Newton Power-Flow Modeling of Voltage-Sourced Converters
Brian Levite, Hitachi Consulting, New York, New York, USA and Alex Rakow, Hitachi
Consulting, Washington, District of Columbia, USA
Suman Bhowmick
This book is written as a practical guide to those interested in the pursuit of energy resilience
at a local scale. Energy resilienceis defined as the relative ability of an institution to carry
out its mission during a shock to the energy system and approach the concept on the level
of a single site occupied by a single community or institution. Examples are drawn from
four key community types: military bases, healthcare campuses, educational campuses,
and municipal governments. The book then describes a framework for developing an
energy resilience plan that applies to each.
This book addresses the Newton Power Flow Modelling of Voltage-Sourced Converter
Based FACTS Controllers. Usually, incorporation of a FACTS device into an existing Newton
Raphson algorithm requires a modification in the existing power flow equations and the
Jacobian. The modelling strategy followed in this book is aimed to minimize these
modifications. As a consequence, the existing Newton-Raphson codes for the power flow
equations and the Jacobian can be reused. Each chapter pertains to the modeling of a
specific VSC based FACTS Controller. For implementation, each of these FACTS devices are
incorporated in realistic power systems and results analyzed.

Nonlinear Digital Filtering with Python
Signal Processing for Intelligent Sensor Systems
with MATLAB®, Second Edition
An Introduction
Ronald K. Pearson, DataRobot, Boston, Massachusetts, USA
and Moncef Gabbouj, Tampere University of Technology,
Finland
This book discusses important structural filter classes including
the median filter and a number of its extensions (e.g., weighted
and recursive median filters), and Volterra filters based on
polynomial nonlinearities. Using results from algebra and the
theory of functional equations to construct and characterize
behaviorally defined nonlinear filter classes, the text first
introduces Python programming, and then proposes practical,
bottom-up strategies for designing more complex and capable

Bayesian Networks
Experimental Strategies and Data Analysis for
Research
With Examples in R
Marco Scutari and Jean-Baptiste Denis, Unité de Recherche
Mathématiques et Informatique Appliquées, INRA,
Jouy-en-Josas, France
Series: Chapman & Hall/CRC Texts in Statistical Science
Suitable for graduate students and non-statisticians, this text
introduces Bayesian networks using a hands-on approach with
simple yet meaningful examples in R illustrating each step of
the modeling process. The book explains the whole process of
Bayesian network modeling, from structure learning to parameter
learning to inference. It also gives a concise but rigorous
treatment of the fundamentals of Bayesian networks, offers an
introduction to causal Bayesian networks, and evaluates
real-world examples involving causal protein signaling and body
composition prediction.
John Lawson, Brigham Young University, Provo, Utah, USA and John Erjavec,
University of North Dakota, Grand Forks, USA
Although books covering experimental design are often written for academic courses
taken by statistics majors, most experiments performed in industry and academic research
are designed and analyzed by non-statisticians. Therefore, a need exists for a desk reference
that will be useful to practitioners who use experimental designs in their work. This book
fills that gap. It is written as a guide that can be used as a reference book or as a sole or
supplemental text for a university course.

Zhongkui Li, Peking University, Beijing, China and Zhisheng
Duan, Peking University, Beijing, China
Series: Automation and Control Engineering
This book provides a systematic framework for designing
distributed controllers for multi-agent systems with general
linear agent dynamics, linear agent dynamics with uncertainties,
and Lipschitz nonlinear agent dynamics. The proposed
consensus region decouples the design of the feedback gain
matrices of the cooperative protocols from the communication
graph and serves as a measure for the robustness of the
protocols to variations of the communication graph. By
exploiting the decoupling feature, adaptive cooperative
protocols are presented that can be designed and implemented
in a fully distributed fashion.

The book describes a fundamentally new approach to software
dependability, considering a software system as an
ever-changing system due to changes in service objectives,
users’ requirements, standards and regulations, and to advances
in technology. Such a system is viewed as an Open System since
its functions, structures, and boundaries are constantly changing.
Thus, the approach to dependability is called Open Systems
Dependability. The DEOS technology realizes Open Systems
Dependability. It puts more emphasis on stakeholders’
agreement and accountability achievement for business/service
continuity than in elemental technologies.

This book develops a rational design and systematic approach
to construct a gene network with desired behaviors. In order to
achieve this goal, the registry of standard biological parts and
experimental techniques are introduced at first. Then these
biological components are characterized by a standard modeling
method and collected in the component libraries, which can
be efficiently reused in engineering synthetic gene networks.
Based on the system theory, some design specifications are
provided to engineer the synthetic gene networks to robustly
track the desired trajectory by employing the component
libraries.

Edited by Monique Aubry and Pascal Lievre
Series: Best Practices and Advances in Program Management
This adv. undergraduate and graduate textbook prepares the industrial engineering student
on how to deal with a variety of problems that require making decisions involving multiple
criteria and/or uncertainty/risk. This book is designed for students who are studying industrial
engineering, but it could also be used in programs designed for business/mgmt. as well.
Comprehensive in coverage and related areas such as simulation optimization. It also
emphasis applications involving industrial engineering, engineering economics, location
and layout design, quality mgmt., project mgmt., healthcare mgmt. & operations, and the
use of simulation for system design & operations in general.
The growing complexity of projects and the uncertainty that reigns in today's global
economy are rendering ineffective traditional project practices and processes. These
outdated techniques are based on the premise that knowledge about a project is complete
before it ever starts—this is nearly impossible in today's ever-changing world. New methods
are needed to allow projects to adapt to changing conditions. Simply said, project
management has to evolve! This book presents the latest steps in this evolution.

Project Planning and Project Success
Software Patterns, Knowledge Maps, and Domain
Analysis
The 25% Solution
Pedro Serrador
Series: Best Practices and Advances in Program Management
Although project planning is known to be critical to project
success, it remains a relatively under-studied area of project
management research. This book draws on a literature review
of planning that covers more than 270 sources. It also discusses
new research that analyzed data from more than 1,300 global
projects. The book brings this under-studied area of knowledge
to the forefront. It emphasizes that planning is required for
project success and that shortchanging planning will have a
negative impact on project success.

Safety Differently
Stabilization Theory for Linear Boundary Control
Systems
Human Factors for a New Era, Second Edition
Sidney Dekker, Griffith University, Nathan Campus, Australia
Takao Nambu, Kobe University, Japan
The previous edition looked critically at the answers human
factors would typically provide and compared/contrasted them
with current research and insights at that time. Today, the
unrelenting pace of technology change and growth of
complexity calls for a different kind of safety thinking. This book
explains how to turn safety from a bureaucratic accountability
back into an ethical responsibility for those who do our
dangerous work; how to embrace the human factor not as a
problem to control, but as a solution to harness.
This book presents a unified algebraic approach to stabilization problems of linear boundary
control systems with no assumption on finite-dimensional approximations to the original
systems, such as the existence of the associated Riesz basis. A new proof of the stabilization
result for linear systems of finite dimension is also presented, leading to an explicit design
of the feedback scheme. The problem of output stabilization is discussed, and some
interesting results are developed when the observability or the controllability conditions
are not satisfied.

Systems Engineering is gaining importance in the high-tech
industry with systems like digital single-lens reflex cameras,
medical imaging scanners, and industrial production systems.
Such systems require new methods that can handle uncertainty
in the early phases of development, that systems engineering
can provide. This book offers a toolbox approach by presenting
the tools and illustrating their application with examples. This
results in an emphasis on the design of systems, more than on analysis and classical systems
engineering. The book is useful for those who need an introduction to system design and
engineering, and those who work with system engineers, designers and architects.

Stakeholder Engagement
Systems Engineering
The Game Changer for Program Management
Design Principles and Models
Amy Baugh
Series: Best Practices and Advances in Program Management
Dahai Liu, Embry Riddle Aeronautical University, Florida,
USA
Strong stakeholder engagement is perhaps the most critical
factor for achieving successful program execution in our
fast-paced world. Many program managers get stuck in the
"science" of program management, spending vast amounts of
effort on tasks, charts, and metrics. Program managers who
emphasize activities around relationship building and
stakeholder engagement usually have the best chance for
program success. This book focuses on how to engage your
stakeholders in the right way, and keep them engaged
throughout the course of your program.
Organized in three parts, this textbook covers systems and
systems engineering concepts, systems methods, models and
analytical techniques, systems management and control
methods. Traditional engineering books are either too technical
or not technical at all. This book will not only give students
exposure to the concepts of systems and systems engineering,
but will also provide enough technical expertise for them to use
and apply what they learn in their careers right away.

Microscale and Nanoscale Heat Transfer
Analysis, Design, and Application
Edited by Mourad Rebay, University of Reims Champagne-Ardenne, France, Sadik
Kakaç, TOBB University of Economics and Technology, Ankara, Turkey and Renato
M. Cotta
Use of electronics requires improved thermal packaging and management, and the
development of efficient cooling techniques for them is a key application of Microscale
Heat Transfer. Heat exchangers are important in energy systems, chemical processing, and
nuclear reactors; and cooling-heating is a key factor in the design of automobiles and
aircraft. The thermal conductivity of heat transfer fluids can be increased by adding
nanoparticles in fluids including water, oil, and ethylene glycol mixtures; heat transfer
cooling-heating capabilities are thus enhanced, resulting in compact energy-saving devices.
Exploration of these topics and related issues is the main theme of this book.

Public Transport Planning with Smart Card Data
Edited by Fumitaka Kurauchi and Jan-Dirk Schmocker, 67625616Kyoto University,
Japan
A phenomenological model of smart materials is proposed. Based on this model, the initial
structure change is corrected by the feedback mechanism, which initiates the secondary
physical-chemical reactions resulting in changes in the internal energy of the material.
Attention is paid to modeling expedient reactions of smart materials to external influence
by methods of mechanics, as well as to forecast new heterogeneous structures with
feedback. This book will be of interest for material scientists and engineers developing new
materials. It can also be used as additional reading in materials science courses.
