  • Nanoscale Memristor Device and Circuits Design

    • 1st Edition
    • Balwinder Raj + 3 more
    • English
    Nanoscale Memristor Device and Circuits Design provides theoretical frameworks, including (i) the background of memristors, (ii) physics of memristor and their modeling, (iii) menristive device applications, and (iv) circuit design for security and authentication. The book focuses on a broad aspect of realization of these applications as low cost and reliable devices. This is an important reference that will help materials scientists and engineers understand the production and applications of nanoscale memrister devices. A memristor is a two-terminal memory nanoscale device that stores information in terms of high/low resistance. It can retain information even when the power source is removed, i.e., "non-volatile." In contrast to MOS Transistors (MOST), which are the building blocks of all modern mobile and computing devices, memristors are relatively immune to radiation, as well as parasitic effects, such as capacitance, and can be much more reliable. This is extremely attractive for critical safety applications, such as nuclear and aerospace, where radiation can cause failure in MOST-based systems.

Expert insights are supported by learning activities and real-life case studies, with application of theory to practice throughout.Aimed at nurses in all settings and working at all professional levels, this book will leave the reader with an appreciation of how an array of digital technologies and data can positively impact nurses’ wellbeing, support and improve your daily practice, and ultimately ensure patient-centred, safe and effective care.

  • Sustainability Science

    Managing Risk and Resilience for Sustainable Development
    • 2nd Edition
    • Per Becker
    • English
    Sustainability is increasingly important across functional sectors and scientific disciplines. Policy-makers, practitioners, and academics continue to wrestle with the complexity of risk, resilience, and sustainability, but because of the necessary transdisciplinary focus, it is difficult to find authoritative content in a single source. Sustainability Science: Managing Risk and Resilience for Sustainable Development, Second Edition, contributes to filling that gap and is completely revised with several new chapters. It asserts that all efforts for the sustainability of humankind are undermined by the four fundamental challenges of complexity, uncertainty, ambiguity, and dynamic change. While there are no silver bullets, this book contends that we need systems approaches, risk approaches, participatory approaches, and resilience approaches to address each of them and endeavours to provide such. With that in mind, this book describes the state of the world (Part I), proposes a way to approach the world (Part II), and suggests how to set out to change the world (Part III).

  • Industrial Applications of Nanoemulsion

    • 1st Edition
    • Menaka Jha + 2 more
    • English
    Industrial Applications of Nanoemulsion presents information about the fundamentals and applications of nanoemulsions. This important reference source for those working in the development of nanoemulsions for various applications in chemical, agricultural and engineering fields provides information on a wide range of applications in the food, cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries. These nanoemulsions are made by mixing two immiscible liquids (water and oil) and suitable stabilizing agents (surfactant and co-surfactant), hence their development requires a particular set of details.
