Sommario/riassunto

This book introduces the concept of digital twins and their purposive usage, including the technology infrastructure and the method support necessary for their construction. The landscape of digital twins is illustrated through a range of use cases spread across different application domains such as strategy and business assessment in



enterprises, logistics networks, manufacturing industries, chemical and refinery systems, sustainable food ecosystems, and public healthcare. All these examples show how digital twins are exploited to simulate complex scenarios depending on various external factors – all of which would not be feasible as real-world simulations because of their high costs, potential fatal damages, and unpredictable side effects. The book is written for professionals in industry who would like to learn about the application of these powerful methodologies and tools in various areas as well as for researchers in computer science who would like to draw inspirations for further development of this technology from real-world applications.

Sommario/riassunto

This book provides the ultrastructural study of the pituitary–gonadal axis through the electron microscope. It is a compilation of extensive work carried out by Dr. D.A. Bhiwgade and his researchers over the last four decades. It explains the ultrastructural characteristics of pituitary cells in different morphological states and provides a comprehensive approach to identifying the structural and functional distinctions between various pituitary cell types. The book includes ultrastructural evaluations of the testis and epididymis after different experimental interventions to study the physiological correlations of the organs with spermatogenesis and the consequent structural deformities in sperm. An extensive section of different types of placentae is added for understanding the varied interactions of fetal and maternal tissues in the placental barrier. Placental types seen in bats, shrews, rodents, and monkeys are explained at the ultrastructural level to distinguish the tissue interrelationships within different placental layers. Detailed sketches have been provided to illustrate the correlations between the maternal and fetal tissues in different placental types for better understanding. This book is a ready reckoner and offers guidance to researchers and clinicians in understanding the cellular architecture and intracellular changes associated with various physiological states and clinical conditions of the pituitary, testis, epididymis, and placenta. This book offers assistance to all those using electron microscopy to evaluate cellular and tissue systems.
