Compared to the traditional modeling of computational fluid dynamics, direct numerical simulation (DNS) and large-eddy simulation (LES) provide a very detailed solution of the flow field by offering enhanced capability in predicting the unsteady features of the flow field. In many cases, DNS can obtain results that are impossible using any other me

This book introduces classification and treatment technologies of food waste and then illustrates mechanisms of different typical aerobic fermentation processes of food waste from organic carbon component conversion and microbial succession. Then it presents the preparation and characterization of the synergistic soil conditioner derived from food waste. Finally, it demonstrates how the synergistic soil conditioner is applied into the improvement of organic-matter-impoverished soil as well...

This book integrates a science and business approach to provide an introduction and an insider view of intellectual property issues within the biotech industry, with case studies and examples from developing economy markets. Broad in scope, this book covers key principles in pharmaceutical, industrial, and agricultural biotechnology within four parts. Part 1 details the principles of intellectual property and biotechnology. Part 2 covers plant biotechnology, including biotic and abiotic st...

This book focuses on the treatment and disposal technology used for solid waste in China, puts forward an optimal management scheme that takes into account the complete lifecycle, and introduces a new technical model that reflects the synergies of resource utilization and secondary pollution control. In addition, it provides a set of methods for professional on-site investigation, risk assessment, classification management and control to minimize the risk of groundwater contamination by so...

Lin Yi died very unwillingly in her previous life.The man she loved so deeply never loved her. From the beginning, he approached her for the property of Lin Family, and had a overall plan with her stepmother( He controlled her and the stepmother controlled her father). Later, her father died, and both the property and the companies were seized. Dramatically, the man she slapped three times became a big shot pursued by peopele afterwards. And she finally died on his...

This SpringerBrief examines the use of cheap commercial passive RFID tags to achieve accurate device-free object-tracking. It presents a sensitive detector, named Twins, which uses a pair of adjacent passive tags to detect uncooperative targets (such as intruders). Twins leverages a newly observed phenomenon called critical state that is caused by interference among passive tags. The author expands on the previous object tracking methods, which are mostly device-based, and reveals a new in...

'You're very weak! ' Ever since Li Qingniu could remember, the Grandma Long had always told him this. Regarding this, Li Qingniu had always deeply understood it as well.Because he was not as fast as the Grandpa Quezi, not even as far as the Blind Crutch. Not as good as the Medicinal Residue, not even as far as the Great Black Cow at the entrance of the village, until one day, Li Qingniu walked out of the village …
