Low-Temperature Plasma Chemical Engineering bridges the gap between the plasma and chemical engineering communities. It includes principles and mechanisms of plasma process intensification, novel plasma reactor and process design, and process optimization. The book highlights various plasma chemical processes, such as oxidation of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), methane reforming, CO2 conversion, and biomass tar reforming. It also discusses nitrogen fixation, plasma agriculture, and pla...

Developed from the authors’ graduate-level biostatistics course, Applied Categorical and Count Data Analysis, Second Edition explains how to perform the statistical analysis of discrete data, including categorical and count outcomes. The authors have been teaching categorical data analysis courses at the University of Rochester and Tulane University for more than a decade. This book embodies their decade-long experience and insight in teaching and applying statistical mode...

"Todos somos viajeros en el tiempo viajando juntos hacia el futuro. Pero trabajemos para hacer de ese futuro un lugar que queramos visitar". Esta frase forma parte del mensaje que Stephen Hawking grabó para celebrar el Día de la Tierra en 2020, el famoso físico que dedicó su vida a desentrañar muchos misterios del universo seguía teniendo grandes preguntas: ¿Cómo podemos cuidar el planeta? ¿Cómo podemos aprender a apoyarnos los unos a los otros? Este libro es una invitación para los niños ...

This book provides a comprehensive overview of the field of plasma catalysis, regarded as a promising alternative to thermal processes for energy and environmental applications. It bridges the gap between the plasma and catalysis research communities, covering both the fundamentals of plasma catalysis and its application in environmental and energy research.The first section of the book offers a broad introduction to plasma catalysis, covering plasma-catalyst systems, interactions,...

This volume covers classic as well as cutting-edge topics on the analysis of clinical trial data in biomedical and psychosocial research and discusses each topic in an expository and user-friendly fashion. The intent of the book is to provide an overview of the primary statistical and data analytic issues associated with each of the selected topics, followed by a discussion of approaches for tackling such issues and available software packages for carrying out analyses. While classic topic...
