Overview: Describes today’s most promising approach to the full use of nanomaterials in device applications.Provides the keys to understanding the integration of nanomaterials with silicon ICs.Addresses both ma.A variety of nanomaterials have excellent optoelectronic and electronic properties for novel device applications. At the same time, and with advances in silicon integrated circuit (IC) techniques, compatible Si-based nanomaterials hold promise of applying the advantages of nanomaterials to the conventional IC industry. This book focuses not only on silicon nanomaterials, but also summar

Overview: The first book to apply a framework of self-determination theory (SDT) to an analysis of healthy aging.Offers timely global perspectives on aging, comparing North American, European and Asian contexts.This book pioneers evidence-based research on healthy aging through the application of self determination theory (SDT). Its uniqueness is located in the fact that to date, no other work has applied SDT to the empirical study of aging populations. The authors focus on how SDT drives healthy, successful and active aging, and note that the motivation factors underpinning healthy aging are

Overview: Includes supplementary material: The objective of this book is to provide a comprehensive discussion of Fourier and Chebyshev spectral methods for the computation of incom­ pressible viscous flows, based on the Navier-Stokes equations. and confidence in the numerical results, the re­ For reasons of efficiency searchers and practitioners involved in computational fluid dynamics must be able to master the numerical methods they use. Therefore, in writing this book, beyond the description of the algorithms, I have also tried to provide information on the mathematical and computational,

Overview: Dr. Zalevsky, the editor of the brief, is well respected in his field.Several super resolved imaging approaches are reviewed.Includes supplementary material: .In this brief we review several approaches that provide super resolved imaging, overcoming the geometrical limitation of the detector as well as the diffraction effects set by the F number of the imaging lens. In order to obtain the super resolved enhancement, we use spatially non-uniform and/or random transmission structures to encode the image or the aperture planes. The desired resolution enhanced images are obtained by post
