  • Studies in Natural Products Chemistry

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 85
    • Atta-ur Rahman
    • English
    Studies in Natural Products Chemistry, Volume 85 covers the synthesis or testing and recording of the medicinal properties of natural products, providing cutting-edge accounts on fascinating developments in the isolation, structure elucidation, synthesis, biosynthesis, and pharmacology of a diverse array of bioactive natural products. Natural products in the plant and animal kingdom offer a huge diversity of chemical structures that are the result of biosynthetic processes that have been modulated over the millennia through genetic effects.With the rapid developments in spectroscopic techniques and accompanying advances in high-throughput screening techniques, it has become possible to isolate and then determine the structures and biological activity of natural products rapidly, thus opening up exciting opportunities in the field of new drug development to the pharmaceutical industry.

    • English
    Fundamentals of Uncertainty Quantification for Engineers: Methods and Models provides a comprehensive introduction to uncertainty quantification (UQ) accompanied by a wide variety of applied examples and implementation details to reinforce the concepts outlined in the book. Sections start with an introduction to the history of probability theory and an overview of recent developments of UQ methods in the domains of applied mathematics and data science. Major concepts of copula, Monte Carlo sampling, Markov chain Monte Carlo, polynomial regression, Gaussian process regression, polynomial chaos expansion, stochastic collocation, Bayesian inference, modelform uncertainty, multi-fidelity modeling, model validation, local and global sensitivity analyses, linear and nonlinear dimensionality reduction are included. Advanced UQ methods are also introduced, including stochastic processes, stochastic differential equations, random fields, fractional stochastic differential equations, hidden Markov model, linear Gaussian state space model, as well as non-probabilistic methods such as robust Bayesian analysis, Dempster-Shafer theory, imprecise probability, and interval probability. The book also includes example applications in multiscale modeling, reliability, fatigue, materials design, machine learning, and decision making.
