This third volume of the new ASME Press Book Series on Renewable Energy also edited by Dr. Rao and published by ASME Press is based on updated chapters from the classic 2011 Handbook of Energy and Power Generation in addition to a new chapter appropriate for the title of this book. The discussions in this book update Wind Energy since the publication of 2011 Handbook by Dr. Rao in Chapters 1, 2, 3 and 4. Since the coverage in the 2011 Handbook...

While the JPEG image standard was developed more than 25 years ago, it is still dominant in terms of image formation, manipulation and transmission over the internet and other media. As technology advances, new demands have arisen for the efficient transmission and storage of images causing other formats to emerge. Over the years, several extensions such as, JPEGLS, JPEG2K, JPEGXT, JPEGXR, JPEGXS and JPEG Pleno, have been added, constructing a...

Renewable Energy has emerged as an important source for energy and power generation from renewable resources, naturally replenished on a human timescale, such as sunlight, wind, rain, hydro including tides and waves, geothermal heat, and from traditional and modern biomass. Worldwide investments in renewable energy are surpassing expectations, significantly in Europe (Germany and Spain), the US, in Asia (China and India) and in Australia. Ener...

This comprehensive new guide, available in two volumes, addresses Sections I through XI of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code and Codes B31.1 and B31.3 for Pressure Piping. Contributors also provide examples and explanatory text, graphics, references, and annotated bibliographic notes. As a result, engineers can immediately refer to the material requirements to find acceptance criteria. Its indepth treatment of each of the Code sections ...

For senior/graduate level courses in multimedia, communications, and networking.As multimedia applications become more prevelent (videophones, multimedia books, videogames, video conferencing) the files traveling the net are getting bigger and slower! One way in which to compensate for this is by coding and compressing files. This book demonstrates the various techniques available for coding and compression, and also discusses the internationa...

This far-reaching resource covers a full spectrum of multi-faceted considerations critical for energy generation decision makers considering the adoption or expansion of wind power facilities. It contextualizes pivotal technical information within the real complexities of economic, environmental, practical and socio-economic parameters. This matrix of coverage includes case studies and analysis from developed and developing regions, including ...

High Efficiency Video Coding and Other Emerging Standards provides an overview of high efficiency video coding (HEVC) and all its extensions and profiles. There are nearly 300 projects and problems included, and about 400 references related to HEVC alone. Next generation video coding (NGVC) beyond HEVC is also described. Other video coding standards such as AVS2, DAALA, THOR, VP9 (Google), DIRAC, VC1, and AV1 are addressed, and image coding st...

Odontogenic tumors has been studied extensively for several decades. The term "Tumor" here constitute a group of heterogeneous lesions ranging from hamartomatous tissue proliferations to malignant neoplasms. Ameloblastoma, a benign but locally invasive neoplasm derived form odontogenic epithelium is most frequently encountered with high tendency to recur. It is unique tumor in oral and maxillo-facial region exhibiting wide range of different h...

Since its discovery in 2004, graphene has been a great sensation due to its unique structure and unusual properties, and it has only taken 6 years for a Noble Prize to be awarded for the field of graphene research. This monograph gives a well-balanced overview on all areas of scientific interest surrounding this fascinating nanocarbon. In one handy volume it offers comprehensive coverage of the topic, including chemical, materials science, nan...

Although about 10, 000 times smaller than the head of a pin, nanoparticles are huge compared to atoms and simple molecules. Building one by means of chemical synthesis is a complex challenge, especially when specific properties are desired. This field of nanomaterials chemistry is currently the focus of immense interest and attention, and is growing year by year. With this book, the distinguished team of editors has combined the expertise of l...
