This book is inductive power transfer (IPT) in power electronics. In order to improve the coupling coefficient, improve the quality factor, and control the harmonics, the method of analysis and design of the IPT system is proposed. By increasing the coupling coefficient of the magnetic coupling structure and improving the quality factor of the system, the efficiency of the system is improved and the distance of IPT is extended. The applicable readers are scholars, undergraduates and postgr...

Chinese dual language immersion (DLI) education experienced unprecedented growth in recent years; hence, it has become critical that Chinese DLI research catches up to inform Chinese DLI teachers and administrators of the most effective ways to teach and run their programs. The purpose of Chinese-English Dual Language Immersion Programs: Content Area Instruction, Learners, and Evaluations is to explore three DLI themes that are under-researched: content area instruction, learners,...

This book provides a comprehensive discussion of Adaptable Design (AD). It covers the conception, method, and application of AD to the real-world product design. AD's benefits are substantial as it upgrades, reuses, remanufactures and recycles products throughout the product lifecycle. It rapidly adapts the existing design in development of new designs. Key elements of AD include rationalized function structures, adaptable product architectures, adaptable interfaces, and adaptability evalu...

This book tries to root its exploration of China’s urbanization in the very local realities of China from the perspective of urban geography and international urbanization theory. The research is of large scale, full process and boasts the feature of multidimensional and systematic thinking. In order clearly illustrate the full dimensions of China’s urbanization, each chapter presents series of well-designed figures and tables to enhance the book’s readability and clarity. This book can be...
