Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides the reader with a solid understanding of the fundamental modeling of photovoltaic devices. After the material independent limit of photovoltaic conversion, the readers are introduced to the most well-known theory of "classical" silicon modeling. Based on this, for each of the most important PV materials, their performance under different conditions is modeled. This book also covers different modeling approaches, from very fundamental theoretic investigations to applied numeric simulations based on experimental values. The book concludes wth a chapter on the influence of spectral variations. The information is supported by providing the names of simulation software and basic literature to the field. The information in the book gives the user specific application with a solid background in hand, to judge which materials could be appropriate as well as realistic expectations of the performance the devices could achieve.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first and most comprehensive guide on the modeling, engineering and reliable design of indoor photovoltaics which currently is the most promising and energy efficient power supply for edge nodes for the Internet of Things and other indoor devices. Indoor photovoltaics (IPV) has grown in importance over recent years. This can in part be attributed to the creation of the Internet of Things (IoT) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) along with the vast amounts of data being processed in the field, which has been a massive accelerator for this development. Moreover, since energy conservation is being imposed as the national strategy of many countries and is being set as a top priority throughout the world, understanding and promoting IPV as the most promising indoor energy harvesting source is considered by many to be essential these days. The book provides the engineer and researcher with guidelines, and presents a comprehensive overview of theoretical models, efficiencies, and application design. This unique and groundbreaking book has chapters by leading researchers on: Introduction to micro energy harvesting Introduction to indoor photovoltaics Modeling indoor irradiance Characterization and power measurement of IPV cells Luminescent solar concentrators Organic photovoltaic cells and modules for applications under indoor lighting conditions High-efficiency indoor photovoltaic energy harvesting Indoor photovoltaics based on ALGAAs alloys

This book was released on 2016-11-09 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Energy Autonomy of Batteryless and Wireless Embedded Systems covers the numerous new applications of embedded systems that are envisioned in the context of aeronautics, such as sensor deployment for flight tests or for structural health monitoring. However, the increasing burden of on-board cabling requires wireless solutions. Moreover, concerns such as safety or system lifetime preclude the use of electrochemical energy storage. Ambient energy capture, storage and management are therefore key topics. This book presents these concepts and illustrates them through actual implementations in airliners. With five years of experience within this specialist field, the authors present results from actual flight tests via a partnership with Airbus. Basic concepts are summarized, together with practical implementations in airliners, enriching the book through the very specific aspects related to embedded systems deployed in aircraft. This book will appeal to both students and practising engineers in the field. Features a complete study of the energy management architecture, from general concepts to specific applications Presents results from thorough studies on electrostatic energy storage Provides hands-on consideration of industrial implementations in airliners, specifically in harsh environments Includes actual results obtained from flight tests

Book excerpt: The rapid growth of IoT and its applications in smart cities pose significant challenges for academic scholars. The increasing number of interconnected devices and the massive amounts of data they generate strain traditional networks, leading to inefficiencies and security vulnerabilities. Additionally, the centralized control plane in Software Defined Networks (SDN) presents a single point of failure, hindering network performance, while IoT devices themselves are susceptible to attacks, compromising user data and privacy. To address these pressing issues, Network-Enabled IoT Applications for Smart City Services offers a compelling solution. Edited by Dr. K. Hemant Kumar Reddy, Dr. Diptendu SinhaRoy, and Tapas Mishra, this book advocates leveraging SDN to handle high-frequency data streams effectively. It also proposes the integration of blockchain technology to enhance security and reliability in IoT applications, offering a roadmap for scholars to improve network efficiency, security, and reliability in IoT and smart city domains. With their extensive expertise, the authors provide academic scholars with a comprehensive and innovative resource that inspires further research and development in this evolving field, enabling them to make significant contributions to the advancement of IoT and smart city technologies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Books on Textiles tend to focus solely on aesthetic or technical points of view. Designers’ understanding of special technical aspects of textile structure or the ability of researchers to grasp the design aspects would result in quantum leaps in innovations and creativity in the Textile domain. This book presents a holistic view integrating the viewpoints of designers and researchers. It presents previously unexplored features or possibilities, mainly in the field of textile structure constructions and characteristics. The main aim is a unique proper blending of both the technical and aesthetic sides of textile. Without compromising on the technicalities, it simplifies complex concepts to elevate the understanding of fashion designers. On the other hand, it also provides a viewpoint on aesthetics. The chapters are designed to provide a good balance of content for both fashion designers and professionals. The initial chapter sets the foundation of understanding with a healthy discussion about the latest technical trends of textiles’ functionalities and their new applications. A dedicated chapter discusses the practical use of lighting effects of side-emitting optical fibers in conjunction with color effects for textile design purposes. Further chapters deal with smart textiles design in the context of sensation and perception, basic aspects of textiles structures necessary for their rational design, and color characteristics of materials useful for designers. The book includes a special chapter on analyzing the business landscape of textile design. Overall, this book is expected to cater to the needs and give special knowledge important for both textile specialists and fashion designers.
