This book provides systematical exhibitions of grabbing coordination opportunities for energy management in low-carbon power systems in terms of the transmission level, distribution level, and interactions with heterogeneous energy flows. Particularly, this book focuses on coordinated energy management for low-carbon power systems from a resource aggregation perspective which can be plug-and-play in practice with higher effectiveness. This book starts with introducing resource aggregation ...

Magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) synthesize intracellular nano-sized minerals of magnetite and/or greigite magnetosomes for magnetic orientation. They play important roles in global iron cycling and sedimentary magnetism, and have a broad range of potential applications in both biotechnological and biomedical fields. However, because the majority of MTB in nature remain unculturable, our understanding of these specific bacteria remains fairly limited. This thesis describes the development of a...

In the Gutter Warrens, at the base of a mountain she will never be allowed to climb, Meilin Yin sorts the garbage the powerful throw away.Dead spirit stones. Withered herbs. Broken talismans. For seven years she has survived on the refuse of Azure Peak Sect, the only scavenger who bothers to bring intact work to Old Mu's guild, the only one who notices that things others call worthless still remember what they used to be.Then she discovers something no one was supposed to f...

This book chooses four different transmission mechanisms of interest rate, credit, exchange rate, and asset price to study whether China’s monetary policy has an impact on these four transmission mechanisms and then studies whether these four transmission mechanisms have an impact on the macroeconomy, so as to determine the impact of China’s monetary policy on macro-goals.

This book explores integrated information spaces in the web context and beyond, with a focus on putting theories and principles into practice. The authors illustrate the heightened significance of Information Architecture (IA) and User Experience (UX) in industry and society. Building on foundational perspectives, the book explores advanced topics such as user research, the evolving role of Artificial Intelligence (AI), human information behaviors, and systems thinking. This Third Edition ...

The Matsu archipelago between China and Taiwan, for long an isolated outpost off southeast China, was suddenly transformed into a military frontline in 1949 by the Cold War and the Communist-Nationalist conflict. The army occupied the islands, commencing more than 40 long years of military rule. With the lifting of martial law in 1992, the people were confronted with the question of how to move forward. This in-depth ethnography and social history of the islands focuses on how individual c...

Modeling and Numerical Simulation of Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells: Concept, Methods, and Challenges provides a concise guide to the modeling of PEM fuel cells. The book offers detailed methodologies, codes, and algorithms on every aspect of PEM fuel cells, from cold start to degradation. Chapters cover the development, basic principles, and components of PEM fuel cells, discuss the transport phenomena and mathematical formulation of macro-scale PEM fuel cell models, single cell and ...

Approaching Business Models from an Economic Perspective examines business model logic and explores the model from different aspects including definition, design, functionality, elements, and self-sustaining logic. It explains the essence and core elements of a business model and unlocks its mysteries, helping transform business model practices into an expedient set of theories that in turn facilitate application in real scenarios. The book explores the logic behind the six major elements ...

The little trash of the Exorcist Family had been packaged and given to someone else to be his wife.After he was deceived and humiliated.Married to his most hated enemy.Only a husband is good in this world.His family treated him like a root and his enemies treated him like a treasure.

This book breaks the boundaries of the single enterprise, proposing the symbiotic business model, and discussing business model design engineering as well as other new concepts, methods and ideas. Business models are not only dependent on business intuition, but also on systematic design and continuous upgrade. This book presents qualitative methods, such as the theory and principles of business model design; quantitative methods, for example the business-model based "Accounting Method"; a...

Environmental issues appear deceptively simple: science tells us what the problems are and how to solve them, and, for Christians, the Bible motivates us to care for creation. And yet, both in society in general as well as in the Christian church in particular, we cannot seem to agree on what to do regarding environmental issues. In this book, climate scientist Johnny Wei-Bing Lin argues that determining the content of environmental stewardship, far from being a straightforward exercise, i...

Addressing the rising security issues during the design stages of cyber-physical systems, this book develops a systematic approach to address security at early design stages together with all other design constraints. Cyber-attacks become more threatening as systems are becoming more connected with the surrounding environment, infrastructures, and other systems. Security mechanisms can be designed to protect against attacks and meet security requirements, but there are many challenges of a...
