Overview: Discusses the theory as necessary, but either in parallel with extremely simple examples or with reference to the performances that can be actually obtained by CS-based sensing systems.Describes a des.This book describes algorithmic methods and hardware implementations that aim to help realize the promise of Compressed Sensing (CS), namely the ability to reconstruct high-dimensional signals from a properly chosen low-dimensional “portrait”. The authors describe a design flow and some low-resource physical realizations of sensing systems based on CS. They highlight the pros and cons o

Overview: Example-oriented text with all applications taken from science and engineering.Aimed at newcomers to programming and Python, but proved to be useful for professionals too.All examples are accompanied .The book serves as a first introduction to computer programming of scientific applications, using the high-level Python language. The exposition is example and problem-oriented, where the applications are taken from mathematics, numerical calculus, statistics, physics, biology and finance.

Overview: Michael Alpert‘s study of the Spanish Civil War is dedicated to the international aspects of the conflict, and covers the whole era, setting the action in Spain against major events throughout the world of the 1930s. Since the first edition of this book new archival material has become available and this fully revised edition includes the latest research on the Spanish Civil War. This contextual approach to the Spanish Civil War offers insights into the study of this conflict.978-1-4039-1171-1978-0-230-50101-0

Overview: Includes supplementary material: This book explores the value of the musical concept of “agogics” – the modification of regular rhythm to enhance expressive potential – in understanding urban spatial configurations within the current technological context and in developing urban maps that exploit sonic signals to create an open learning framework. The book starts by discussing the meaning and significance of agogics in the musical and artistic realm, with reference to the work of Adolphe Appia, Emile-Jaques Dalcroze, and Iannis Xenakis, among others. Its relevance to cartography and

Overview: Represents the first science-based guidelines on effects of noise on fish and turtles.Reviewed and approved by ANSI Standards Group as guidelines.Discusses issues of world-wide interest with implicatiThis Technical Report presents the outcome of a Working Group that was established to determine broadly applicable sound exposure guidelines for fishes and sea turtles. After consideration of the diversity of fish and sea turtles, guidelines were developed for broad groups of animals, defined by the way they detect sound. Different sound sources were considered in terms of their acoustic

Overview: Examines the conventional view points on human errors.Discusses the perception of risk and its influence on accidents and disasters.Talks about COVID pandemic and Max 737 air crashesThis book deals with the contemporary subject of perception of risk and its influence on accidents and disasters. The contents examine the conventional viewpoints on human errors, incubation of errors, complexity and organisational deviance as a cause for accidents. Work of Mary Douglas with regard to risk, Charles Perrow‘s work on the normal accident theory and Diane Vaughan‘s theory on normalisation of

Overview: Easy to read and understand text on spacecraft attitude control.Detailed description of all mathematics used.Many figures to help with conceptual understanding.Includes supplementary material: This book de-emphasizes the formal mathematical description of spacecraft on-board attitude and orbit applications in favor of a more qualitative, concept-oriented presentation of these topics. The information presented in this book was originally given as a set of lectures in 1999 and 2000 instigated by a NASA Flight Software Branch Chief at Goddard Space Flight Center.  The Branch Chief later

Overview: This book examines what ‘republicanism‘ meant to the Americans who drafted and ratified the United States Constitution, guaranteeing a ‘republican form of government‘ to every state in the Union. M.N.S.Sellers compares the writings and speeches of the founders with the authors they read and imitated to identify the central tenets of American republicanism, and to demonstrate that American republican though directly reflected classical models, rather than a mediating tradition of English or continental political theory.978-1-349-13347-5Series ISSN 2946-2053 Series E-ISSN 2946-2061
