The principles of modeling and control could be applied to other non-convention methods of energy generation such as solar energy and wave energy. A central feature of Dynamic Modeling, Simulation and Control of Energy Generation is that it brings together diverse topics in thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, heat transfer, electro-chemistry, electrical networks and electrical machines and focuses on their applications in the field of energy generation, its control and regulation. This book will help the reader understand the methods of modelling energy systems for controller design application as well as gain a basic understanding of the processes involved in the design of control systems and regulators. It will also be a useful guide to simulation of the dynamics of energy systems and for implementing monitoring systems based on the estimation of internal system variables from measurements of observable system variables. Dynamic Modeling, Simulation and Control of Energy Generation will serve as a useful aid to designers of hybrid power generating systems involving advanced technology systems such as floating or offshore wind turbines and fuel cells. The book introduces case studies of the practical control laws for a variety of energy generation systems based on nonlinear dynamic models without relying on linearization. Also the book introduces the reader to the use nonlinear model based estimation techniques and their application to energy systems. 410 0$aLecture notes in energy ;$v20. 606 $aPower resources$xMathematical models 606 $aPower resources$xComputer simulation 615 0$aPower resources$xMathematical models. 615 0$aPower resources$xComputer simulation. 676 $a621.042 700 $aVepa$b Ranjan$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0888581 801 0$bMiFhGG 801 1$bMiFhGG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910437780803321 996 $aDynamic Modeling, Simulation and Control of Energy Generation$92020924 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04544nam 22006855 450 001 9910888596303321 005 20250807132300.0 010 $a3-031-55229-6 024 7 $a10.1007/978-3-031-55229-8 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC31681652 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL31681652 035 $a(CKB)35980430600041 035 $a(DE-He213)978-3-031-55229-8 035 $a(EXLCZ)9935980430600041 100 $a20240917d2024 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcnu|||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 14$aThe Neuron in Context /$fby Vanessa Lux 205 $a1st ed. 2024. 210 1$aCham :$cSpringer International Publishing :$cImprint: Springer,$d2024. 215 $a1 online resource (193 pages) 225 1 $aSpringerBriefs in Theoretical Advances in Psychology,$x2511-3968 311 08$a3-031-55228-8 311 08$a3-031-55231-8 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 327 $aChapter 1: From the perspective of a neuron -- Chapter 2: Levels of plasticity -- Chapter 3: Canalizing change -- Chapter 4: Neurons in context -- Chapter 5: The epigenetic lens -- Chapter 6: The neuron, the brain, and the psyche. 330 $aNeuroscience has largely abandoned its localizationist and mechanistic framework of the 20th century. The plastic, embodied, and network character of our nervous system is widely acknowledged, and systems theory approaches to consciousness dominate the field. Despite this shift, the neuron doctrine, which conceptualizes the neuron as a unidirectional and atomic source of neural function, still serves as the foundation for our understanding of the nervous system and consciousness. However, neurons do not exist in isolation and are influenced by multiple contexts in their development, activity, and metabolism. This book examines the limitations of the neuron doctrine and its reductionist approach in light of this new knowledge about the brain?s connectivity, plasticity, and its systemic and embodied nature. The author proposes elements for a new neuron theory that depicts the neuron as a bidirectional hub, both as the source and product of neural function. Additionally, the author discusses the potential of neuroepigenetic markers, along with their environmental sensitivity and relative stability, to characterize neurons and their range of plasticity from a developmental perspective. By examining neurons through an "epigenetic lens," we can better understand how they function as bidirectional hubs. With its focus on neuroepigenetics and the perspective of Developmental Embodiment Research, this book addresses a knowledge gap in the current study of the neural foundations of psychological functions. By considering the multifaceted context in which neurons function, it reorients the relationship between neuroscience and psychology in their shared endeavor to unveil the material basis of consciousness. This represents both new obstacles and fresh perspectives for theoretical psychology. The book presents these current developments and debates to researchers, graduate students, and interested professionals and practitioners working in neuroscience, epigenetics, psychiatry, psychology, and psychotherapy. It also provides a basic introduction to neuroepigenetics, its mechanisms, and first findings for graduate students, as well as interested professionals and practitioners working in psychiatry, psychology, and psychotherapy. 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in Theoretical Advances in Psychology,$x2511-3968 606 $aPsychology 606 $aNeuropsychology 606 $aPsychobiology 606 $aCognitive psychology 606 $aCognitive science 606 $aBehavioral Sciences and Psychology 606 $aNeuropsychology 606 $aBiological Psychology 606 $aCognitive Psychology 606 $aCognitive Science 615 0$aPsychology. 615 0$aNeuropsychology. 615 0$aPsychobiology. 615 0$aCognitive psychology. 615 0$aCognitive science. 615 14$aBehavioral Sciences and Psychology. 615 24$aNeuropsychology. 615 24$aBiological Psychology. 615 24$aCognitive Psychology. 615 24$aCognitive Science. 676 $a573.8536 700 $aLux$b Vanessa$f1978-$01846429 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910888596303321 996 $aThe Neuron in Context$94430944 997 $aUNINA
