    • English
    Advances in Lithium-Ion Batteries for Electric Vehicles: Degradation Mechanism, Health Estimation, and Lifetime Prediction examines the electrochemical nature of lithium-ion batteries, including battery degradation mechanisms and how to manage the battery state of health (SOH) to meet the demand for sustainable development of electric vehicles. With extensive case studies, methods and applications, the book provides practical, step-by-step guidance on battery tests, degradation mechanisms, and modeling and management strategies. The book begins with an overview of Li-ion battery aging and battery aging tests before discussing battery degradation mechanisms and methods for analysis.Further methods are then presented for battery state of health estimation and battery lifetime prediction, providing a range of case studies and techniques. The book concludes with a thorough examination of lifetime management strategies for electric vehicles, making it an essential resource for students, researchers, and engineers needing a range of approaches to tackle battery degradation in electric vehicles.

  • Digitally Disrupted Space

    Proximity and New Development Opportunities for Regions and Cities
    • 1st Edition
    • Anastasia Panori
    • English
    Digitally Disrupted Space: Proximity and New Development Opportunities for Regions and Cities develops an analytical framework of the key structural elements in relation to the digital space and its impact on existing spatial interactions at a regional and urban level. The book puts forth the argument that the digital space is a new form of space acting complementary to existing spatial structures and creating novel interactions between and/or within them. It explores how digital space enhances connected intelligence by combining knowledge-intensive activities, cooperation between organizational and institutional actors, and smart environments of knowledge creation and diffusion.Academics and researchers will find insights into how cities and regions can adopt this new developmental paradigm; how to organize connected intelligence within regional and urban environments; and how to sustain productivity, resilience and inclusion through the use of digital space. Digital transformation managers in the public sector and entrepreneurs in private organizations can leverage the opportunities offered from this transition process, not only by identifying actions and strategies for boosting their productivity, but also for making them more resilient during socio-economic, environmental and health crises.

  • Interaction of Disturbances in Shear Flows

    Bio-based Solutions for Aero- and Hydrodynamic Efficiency
    • 1st Edition
    • Viktor V. Babenko
    • English
    Interaction of Disturbances in Shear Flows aims to provide a comprehensive, in-depth overview of the current state of knowledge on the subject.Authored by a recognized expert with decades of experience and many software patents to his credit, the volume covers advances in computational fluid dynamics to showcase innovative ways to apply physical measurements and visualization patterns to solve various aero- and hydrodynamic problems.
