    Bio-waste-derived Carbon Materials and their Applications Especially as Sensors highlights the role of carbon nanomaterials as bio-(sensors) in several fields, presenting key achievements to date in the areas of biosensor-based diagnostics and environmental applications. The book brings together the knowledge of key researchers from different areas of biosensors research, including an explanation of biomass carbonization by pyrolysis and hydrothermal methods, and its use as a cost-effective strategy for fabrication of electrodes for biosensing applications, along with a comparison of synthetic and bio-derived carbon materials and discussion of various techniques used to improve the surface properties of carbon nanomaterials to enhance the electrocatalytic behaviour of working electrodes. The book highlights the promising technology of biosensors in the field of health care and the environment and explains the methods available, presenting current strategies and future perspectives for bio-(sensor) based diagnosis using carbon materials as sensing materials.

  • Autonomous Electric Vehicles

    Nonlinear Control, Traction, and Propulsion
    • 1st Edition
    • March 19, 2025
    • Gerasimos Rigatos + 3 more
    • English
    Autonomous Electric Vehicles explores cutting-edge technologies revolutionizing transportation and city navigation. Novel solutions to the control problem of the complex nonlinear dynamics of robotized electric vehicles are developed and tested. The new control methods are free of shortcomings met in control schemes which are based on diffeomorphisms and global linearization (complicated changes of state variables, forward and backwards state-space transformations, singularities). It is shown that such methods can be used in the steering and traction system of several types of robotized electric vehicles without needing to transform the state-space model of these systems into equivalent linearized forms. It is also shown that the new control methods can be implemented in a computationally simple manner and are also followed by global stability proofs.
