This application note focusses on the Thomson Electrac HD series of linear actuators. They support two higher-layer protocols based on Controller Area Network (CAN): CANopen, and SAE J1939. You can control the actuators merely with hardware switches (Start, Stop, Forward Motion, Backward Motion), but, in addition, both CAN protocols allow to regulate the linear speed. If your application requires mere motion control (Start, Stop, Forward Motion, Backward Motion, Speed Control), you are bet...

Photogrammetry is a science based technology with more than a century of history and development. During this time, the techniques used to get information about objects represented in photos have changed dramatically from pure optic mechanical equipment to a fully digital workflow in our days. Parallel to this, the handling became easier, and so its possible also for non-photogrammetrists to use these methods today. This book is especially written for potential users which have no photogra...

Water in its different forms has always been a source of wonder, curiosity and practical concern for humans everywhere. Hydrology: An Introduction presents a coherent introduction to the fundamental principles of hydrology, based on the course that Wilfried Brutsaert has taught at Cornell University for the last thirty years. Hydrologic phenomena are dealt with at spatial and temporal scales at which they occur in nature. The physics and mathematics necessary to describe these phenomena ar...

The WWF, renowned global nature conservancy brand, greenwashes the ecological crimes of corporations currently destroying the last remaining rainforests and natural habitats on earth; and it accepts their money. This business model of the famous “eco” organization does more to harm nature than to protect it.  The WWF cannot refute the facts gathered by esteemed journalist and filmmaker Wilfried Huismann during his two-year research expedition to all corners of the

Diagnostic MRI in Dogs and Cats makes the vast and increasingly complex topic of clinical MRI in small animals accessible to all veterinarians. With the increasing availability of MRI technology, there is a pressing need for expertise in interpreting these images. Now fully updated, this remains the first reference textbook to provide a comprehensive, image-rich overview of the current knowledge, focusing on imaging appearance rather than on clinical signs or treatment. MRI images...

This book compiles the insights and teachings from the 2024 IIT School lectures, offering a comprehensive look at ion implantation and annealing in semiconductor manufacturing.

This handbook examines the dichotomy between the structure of products and their subgraphs. It also features the design of efficient algorithms that recognize products and their subgraphs and explores the relationship between graph parameters of the product and factors. Extensively revised and expanded, this second edition presents full proofs of many important results as well as up-to-date research and conjectures. It illustrates applications of graph products in several areas and contain...

This book discusses opportunities and limitations to democratic participation in institutions and organizations across the life course. It demonstrates that democratic participation is not something that is learned once and for all and applied in formal political settings, but something that is lived every day throughout life in various contexts. Institutions and organizations frame human lives and strongly determine the ability to participate and co-determine their communities. They are p...
