Recent Developments and Innovations in the Sustainable Production of Concrete covers the various aspects of sources, materials, and waste products in concrete production, innovation in materials-new technological developments, and the upgradation of existing concrete production systems. Importantly, it covers the so-called EEE aspects (Economy, Energy, and Environment), not touched by other books. The books also highlights the sustainability aspects of concrete production when recycled materials are added. Case studies are used to demonstrate the practical aspect of concrete production, including the machine learning approach.

Introduction to Python and Spice for Electrical and Computer Engineers introduces freshman and sophomore engineering students to programming in Python and Spice through engaged, problem-based learning and dedicated Electrical and Computer Engineering content. This book draws its problems and examples specifically from Electrical and Computer Engineering, covering such topics as matrix algebra, complex exponentials and plotting using examples drawn from circuit analysis, signal processing, and filter design. It teaches relevant computation techniques in the context of solving common problems in Electrical and Computer Engineering.This book is unique among Python textbooks for its dual focus on introductory-level learning and discipline-specific content in Electrical and Computer Engineering. No other textbook on the market currently targets this audience with the same attention to discipline-specific content and engaged learning practices. Although it is primarily an introduction to programming in Python, the book also has a chapter on circuit simulation using Spice. It also includes materials helpful for ABET-accreditation, such information on professional development, ethics, and lifelong learning.

Modelling and Control of Dynamic Spatially Distributed Systems: Pharmaceutical Processes provides a balanced approach to help readers to get started quickly in the field of biochemical pharmaceuticals. From a theoretical perspective, dynamic spatially distributed systems are introduced to address their industrial applications. After identifying problems, the book provides readers with modeling and control system design techniques via a novel fuzzy set (class of objects with a continuum of grades of membership, to describe the grade of the object belonging to this fuzzy set) and intelligent computation methods.From an application perspective, the book provides a thorough understanding of Good Manufacture Practices (GMP) and the importance of identification, modelling, and intelligent control of such systems, reducing the test-and-error cost, and the R&D design time cycle of original drug development.

Neural engineering is an emerging and fast-moving interdisciplinary research area that combines engineering with (a) electronic and photonic technologies, (b) computer science, (c) physics, (d) chemistry, (e) mathematics, and (f) cellular, molecular, cognitive, and behavioral neuroscience. This helps us understand the organizational principles and underlying mechanisms of the biology of neural systems and to further to study the behavioral dynamics and complexity of neural systems in nature. The field of neural engineering deals with many aspects of basic and clinical problems associated with neural dysfunction, including (i) the representation of sensory and motor information, (ii) electrical stimulation of the neuromuscular system to control muscle activation and movement, (iii) the analysis and visualization of complex neural systems at multiscale from the single cell to system levels to understand the underlying mechanisms, (iv) development of novel electronic and photonic devices and techniques for experimental probing, the neural simulation studies, (v) the design and development of human–machine interface systems and artificial vision sensors, and (vi) neural prosthesis to restore and enhance the impaired sensory and motor systems and functions. To highlight this emerging discipline, Dr. Ayman El-Baz and Dr. Jasjit Suri have developed Advances in Neural Engineering, covering the broad spectrum of neural engineering subfields and applications. This Series includes 7 volumes in the following order: Volume 1: Signal Processing Strategies, Volume 2: Brain-Computer Interfaces, Volume 3: Diagnostic Imaging Systems, Volume 4: Brain Pathologies and Disorders, Volume 5: Computing and Data Technologies, Volume 6: Advanced Brain Imaging Techniques and Volume 7: Neural Science Ethics. Volume 1 provides a comprehensive review of dominant feature extraction methods and classification algorithms in the brain-computer interfaces for motor imagery tasks. The authors discuss existing challenges in the domain of motor imagery brain-computer interface and suggest possible research directions.

Case Studies in Mathematical Modelling for Medical Devices: How Pulse Oximeters and Doppler Ultrasound Fetal Heart Rate Monitors Work focuses on two medical devices: pulse oximeters and Doppler ultrasound fetal heart rate monitors. The mathematical topics needed to explain their operation from first principles are introduced. These broadly cover the statistics of random processes and Fourier based signal processing. They are used to explain the devices’ operation from first principles to how clinically relevant information is extracted from the devices’ raw outputs. This book is intended to be of value for MSc and PhD students in biomedical engineering and clinicians, and others, interested in the mathematics behind the design of the instrumentation that they employ. It could also be used in an applied mathematics course by providing real-world examples.The book is for MSc and PhD students working in the area who want a quick, clear introduction to the topics, upper-division undergrads as part of biomedical engineering or applied math degree courses, biomedical engineers looking for a quick "refresher course" and clinicians interested in the operation of the instruments they use.
