This book details cutting-edge research into human-like driving technology, utilising game theory to better suit a human and machine hybrid driving environment. Covering feature identification and modelling of human driving behaviours, the book explains how to design an algorithm for decision making and control of autonomous vehicles in complex scenarios.Beginning with a review of current research in the field, the book uses this as a springboard from which to present a new theory ...

China is a multiethnic country with vast territory, a land of diverse ecosystems. With the drive for industrialization in China and the implementation of 'western grand development' strategy in western regions, both governments and people face great challenges in environmental protection and sustainable use of biodiversity resources as a result of growing interaction between human activities and natural environment. To meet the challenges, governments in these regions need to adopt a serie...

This book highlights the thermodynamics analysis methods for thermal systems in PWR nuclear power plants, encompassing both thermal balance and exergy analysis techniques.The energy conversion efficiency in nuclear power plants has significant impact on their economy viability and market competitiveness. By examining the size, location and sources of energy loss within the thermal system of nuclear power plants, we can inform the design and operation to effectively enhance operatio...

The metaverse is sweeping the global thanks to its fundamentally innovative concepts of physical-virtual blended reality and years of industrial efforts on relevant hardware development. It is yet unclear what the metaverse is, what technologies it relies on, and what concern the society should care about since it is such a huge ecosystem with nearly unlimited possibilities. The book aims to provide a comprehensive study on the meta...
