In this context, renewable energy sources, fuel cell systems, and other energy generating sources must be optimally combined and connected to the grid system using advanced energy transaction methods. As this book presents the latest solutions in the implementation of fuel cell and renewable energy in mobile and stationary applications such as hybrid and microgrid power systems based on energy internet, blockchain technology, and smart contracts, we hope that they are of interest to readers working in the related fields mentioned above.Research & information: generalbicsscTechnology: general issuesbicsscirrigation systemphotovoltaic water pumping systems (PWPS)floating photovoltaic panelsSCADAblockchainSolarCoinpower factorreactive powercapacitanceharmonicstelemetryIndustry 4.0battery managementelectric vehiclestate of charge estimationInternet of Thingssmart contractEthereumIOTAartificial intelligenceinformation securityUN sustainable development goalsUN SDGscarbon tradingdAppM2VIPFScharging schedulingGreat-Circle Distancelocal electricity marketsmart gridsenergy crowdsourcingrenewable energy sourcesprosumersblockchain technologyenergy povertysmart contractshybrid power systemnano-gridfuel cellfuel economypower trackingoptimizationdroop controlmesh microgridspower sharingsynchronizationsystem stabilityrobustness analysisconstant power loadreconfigurationcontroller design analysisnetworked control systems (NCSs)network securitydelayssamplingenergy gridsenergy producerscold spinning reserveDLTbrokerageSMEsenergy optimisationinterleaved boost converterDC/DC converterhybrid electric boatenergy storage system (ESS)RST controlResearch & information: generalTechnology: general issuesBizon Nicuedt866400Bizon NicuothBOOK9910557365203321Efficiency and Sustainability of the Distributed Renewable Hybrid Power Systems Based on the Energy Internet, Blockchain Technology and Smart Contracts3022937UNINA03942nam 2200985z- 450 991055711300332120231214133628.0(CKB)5400000000040916(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/69292(EXLCZ)99540000000004091620202105d2020 |y 0engurmn|---annantxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierMigration and Conflict in a Global Warming EraA Political Understanding of Climate ChangeBasel, SwitzerlandMDPI - Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute20201 electronic resource (164 p.)3-03936-352-2 3-03936-353-0 This Special Issue explores underrepresented aspects of the political dimensions of global warming. It includes post- and decolonial perspectives on climate-related migration and conflict, intersectional approaches, and climate change politics as a new tool of governance. Its aim is to shed light on the social phenomena associated with anthropogenic climate change, as well as its multidimensional and far-reaching political effects, including climate-induced migration movements and climate-related conflicts in different parts of the world. In doing so, it critically engages with securitizing discourses and the resulting anti-migration arguments and policies in the Global North in order to identify and give a voice to alternative and hitherto underrepresented research and policy perspectives. In this way, it aims to contribute to a fact-based, critical, and holistic approach to human mobility and conflict in the context of political and environmental crisis.Migration and Conflict in a Global Warming Era Philosophybicssctelecouplingsustainabilitymulti-stakeholder initiativesroundtable for sustainable palm oilsustainable natural rubber initiativeclimate changeclimigrationenvironmental changemigrationmobilityrefugeesrelocationresettlementlivelihoodsPacific IslandsSIDSvulnerabilityexposuredisastersviolent conflictdisaster risk reductionconflict preventionhumanitarian assistancedevelopment assistanceclimate change migrationadaptationdisplacementforced relocationforced migrationGilbertese peoplePhoenix IslandsWagina Islandimmobilityenvironmental migration and mobilitytrapped populationsmigration governanceSenegalVietnamplanned relocationmigration-climate change-coffee nexusmigration as adaptationin situ adaptationcoffee leaf-rusttransborder regionnarrativesenvironmental migrationenvironmental justiceNorth–South relationsclimate change politicsconflictintersectionalitypostcolonial studiesPhilosophyKlepp Siljaedt997780Fröhlich ChristianeedtKlepp SiljaothFröhlich ChristianeothBOOK9910557113003321Migration and Conflict in a Global Warming Era3022868UNINA08124nam 22022213a 450 991036756550332120250203235426.09783039213788303921378410.3390/books978-3-03921-378-8(CKB)4100000010106091(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/52524(ScCtBLL)e36168d3-37e8-4810-a66e-df335c6f63e7(OCoLC)1163856856(EXLCZ)99410000001010609120250203i20192019 uu engurmn|---annantxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierMachining-Recent Advances, Applications and ChallengesLuis Norberto López de Lacalle, Gorka UrbicainBasel, Switzerland :MDPI,2019.1 electronic resource (554 p.)9783039213771 3039213776 The Special Issue Machining-Recent Advances, Applications and Challenges is intended as a humble collection of some of the hottest topics in machining. The manufacturing industry is a varying and challenging environment where new advances emerge from one day to another. In recent years, new manufacturing procedures have retained increasing attention from the industrial and scientific community.
