Sommario/riassunto

Policing in an Age of Austerity uniquely examines the effects on one key public service: the state police of England and Wales. Focusing on the major cut-backs in its resources, both in material and in labour, it details the extent and effects of that drastic reduction in provision together with related matters in Scotland and Northern Ireland. This book also investigates the knock-on effect on other public agencies of diminished police contribution to public well-being. The book argues that such a dramatic reduction in police services has occurred in an almost totall

Sommario/riassunto

Specifications of Photovoltaic Pumping Systems in Agriculture: Sizing, Fuzzy Energy Management and Economic Sensitivity Analysis is the first book of its kind to discuss the physical installation and sizing of PV pumping systems, also providing a successful energy management operation and economic sensitivity analysis. In order to balance production with consumption, and to improve the lifetime of batteries, Imene Yahyaoui offers a complete study through sensitive analysis of system components and sizing algorithms, providing guidance for



efficient energy conversion and management for off-grid systems. From this single source, readers will be equipped with all the necessary data they need to understand, plan, and implement cost reduced systems. Contains practical examples on how to optimize photovoltaic energy to pump water Presents case studies on both the physical installation and effective energy management of PV water pump systems Provides in-depth economic studies that justify optimization reliability
