    Managing Urban Logistics provides new insights based on the most recent research, theories, and developments in technological and ICT solutions, contemporary corporate trends, the re-evaluation of the role of authorities, and much more. The book shows how to manage these complex urban logistics issues using a long term, systemic perspective where urban freight distribution is an integral part of the entire urban mobility system. It examines the convergence points between mass and customized deliveries, thus modeling the decision processes, trade-offs and tolerances behind these processes to enable a more fluid sharing of urban space.Users will find an approach that tackles these issues from an empirical viewpoint that is based on analysis from a wide set of cases in urban environments around the world. A fresh and unique multidisciplinary approach that is based on solid theoretical background and a pragmatic management standpoint makes this book a must have for those involved in urban logistics.
  • Supercapacitors

    • English
    Supercapacitors: Materials, Design, and Commercialization provides a comprehensive overview of the latest research trends and opportunities in supercapacitors, particularly in terms of novel materials and electrolytes. The book addresses the transformation in supercapacitive technology from double layer capacitance to battery-type capacitance, providing a clear understanding of the conceptual differences between various charge storage processes for supercapacitors, charge storage based on materials and electrolytes, and calculation for capacitance for these charge processes. Detailed chapters discuss recent developments in materials, such as carbons, chalcogenides, MXene and phosphorene, various polymer nanocomposites, and polyoxometalates for supercapacitors.This is followed by in-depth coverage of electrolytes, including the evolution of electrolytes from aqueous to water-in-salt electrolytes and their role in improving the energy density of supercapacitors. The final part of the book examines the role of artificial intelligence in the design of supercapacitors, and latest developments in translating novel supercapacitor technologies from laboratory-scale research to a commercialization.

  • Dermatología de la diversidad

    • 1st Edition
    • Antoine Mahé + 1 more
    • Spanish
    Las particularidades dermatológicas que pueden vincularse a la diversidad de la población son numerosas, y afectan tanto a la piel como al cuero cabelludo. Pueden tener un gran impacto estético y psicológico. El primer libro sobre el tema, Dermatología de la diversidad, pretende hacer balance de estas cuestiones y ofrecer al dermatólogo un manual de diagnóstico y tratamiento. Las especificidades directamente relacionadas con una pigmentación melánica intensa de la piel o un cabello muy rizado se detallan a nivel diagnóstico, pero también a nivel terapéutico, especificando en particular las adaptaciones de determinadas técnicas o indicaciones terapéuticas que pueden derivarse de ello. También se enumeran las consecuencias de la exposición a un entorno específico, sobre todo tropical, o a prácticas marcadas culturalmente. Por último, este libro aborda el tema desde una perspectiva más global: geopolítica, por un lado, para ilustrar el peso cada vez más importante de la globalización en la salud; pero también, en un plano más teórico, el carácter innovador de algunos conceptos que justifica su clarificación, con una notable aportación de las ciencias sociales. También se presentan los fundamentos de un enfoque transcultural de la asistencia. Esta exhaustiva obra, ilustrada con numerosas tablas y cerca de 350 fotografías, es indispensable para cualquier dermatólogo, constituyendo una referencia obligada para obtener una calidad asistencial universal que tenga en cuenta la diversidad de las poblaciones.
