Book Description
This book presents the latest research in computational methods for modeling and simulating brain disorders. In particular, it shows how mathematical models can be used to study the relationship between a given disorder and the specific brain structure associated with that disorder. It also describes the emerging field of computational psychiatry, including the study of pathological behavior due to impaired functional connectivity, pathophysiological activity, and/or aberrant decision-making. Further, it discusses the data analysis techniques that will be required to analyze the increasing amount of data being generated about the brain. Lastly, the book offers some tips on the application of computational models in the field of quantitative systems pharmacology.

Foundations of Antennas
Author: Per-Simon Kildal
Publisher: Professional Pub Service
ISBN: 9789144013183
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 395
Book Description
This is a modern textbook. The formulas for the radiation fields from different antennas are expressed in a compact and unified way by means of the direct vector integral relations between fields and currents. Thereby the formulas become easy to apply and interpret. The Moment Method is introduced as a basic principle in field theory, and it is used together with the equivalence principle to derive the classical formulas in antenna theory. The book comes with a CD-ROM. This contains the over 50 computer programs which have been used to produce the results in all the graphs in the book. These computer programs are referred to as Mathcad Documents. They can be run without buying extra software, and without having any previous knowledge of Mathcad. The Mathcad Documents provided can be used for initial designs of dipole, slot, microstrip, horn, reflector and array antennas (by classical formulas). Good initial designs will reduce the time and cost needed for fine tuning of performance with more advanced CAD software. The Mathcad Documents can also be used to validate other software. The CD-ROM also contains HTML slides of all the material in the book.

Printed Antennas for Wireless Communications
Author: Rod Waterhouse
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 9780470512258
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 472
Book Description
Printed antennas, also known as microstrip antennas, have a variety of beneficial properties including mechanical durability, conformability, compactness and cheap manufacturing costs. As such, they have a range of applications in both the military and commercial sectors, and are often mounted on the exterior of aircraft and spacecraft as well as incorporated into mobile radio communication devices. Printed Antennas for Wireless Communications offers a practical guide to state-of-the-art printed antenna technology used for wireless systems. Contributions from renowned global experts within both academia and industry enable the reader to design printed antennas and associated technologies, and offer valuable insights into important breakthroughs in these areas. Divided into 3 sections covering fundamental wideband printed radiating elements for wireless systems, small printed antennas for wireless systems, and advanced concepts and applications in wireless systems. Provides experimental data and applies theoretical models to present design performance trends and to give the reader an in-depth coverage of the area. Presents summaries of different approaches used in solving wireless systems such as WPAN (wireless personal area network) and MIMO (multi-input/ multi-output), offering the reader an overall perspective of the pros and cons of each. Focuses on practical design, examples and ‘real world’ solutions. Printed Antennas for Wireless Communications offers an excellent insight on printed antennas from the theoretical to the practical; hence it will appeal to practicing design engineers within commercial and governmental/ military organistations, as well as postagraduate students and researchers in communications technology

Metamaterials and Their Applications
Author: Dharani Sabba
Publisher: Arcler Press
ISBN: 9781773610535
Category : Electromagnetism
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Artificial materials such as metamaterials are gaining interest in research area in recent years owing to their extraordinary properties as implied by the word "Meta" meaning "beyond" in Greek. These metamaterials constitute periodic or nonperiodic subwavelength macro cells which exhibit properties based on the design of the macro units resulting in special materials that do not exist in nature. Though the metamaterials have achieved significant breakthroughs in theory, application of these materials requires considerable progress. Some recent advances in terms of their application comprise of revolutionary electronics, filtering of sound and light, biosensors, absorbers of electromagnetic radiation, antennas with improved performance, invisible submarines etc. These metamaterials are classified into electromagnetic (EM), chiral, tetrahertz, photonic metamaterials, tunable metamaterials with the ability to modify the frequency of refractive index, frequency selective surfaces and nonlinear metamaterials. EMs are chiefly used for optical and microwave applications such as band-pass filters, lenses, microwave couplers, antenna radomes, etc. Some of the salient characteristics of these materials are their ability to control the direction of electromagnetic radiation, achieve enhanced bandwidth and radiated power and reduce the beam-width and return loss in contrast to the conventional antennas.As the field of metamaterials is interesting and has potential for next generation applications, in this book, a compilation of research articles and reviews showcasing the synthesis, properties, numerical models and the application of these metamaterials in various fields has been illustrated. Chapters 1-6 are compilation of research and invited articles manifesting the various synthesis routes of metamaterials with chapters 4-6 focusing on the theoretical models used for the fabrication of these materials while chapters 7-9 highlight the properties of the metamaterials. The final chapters 10-17 acquaint the reader with the numerous applications of the metamaterials such as lens, absorber materials, sensors, antennas, etc. Chapter 11 is a review on the theory and application of tunable metamaterials. As this book comprises of research articles ranging from synthesis to numerical modeling of metamaterials, it will appeal to audience with strong inclination towards physics, computer simulations, material science and electronics. Also as these metamaterials are important in many defense applications, the reader will find this book compelling to research extensively and adopt these materials into advanced technologies for the safety and progress of one's nation.

The Political Economy of Populism
Author: Petar Stankov
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 100020071X
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 94
Book Description
The Political Economy of Populism explores the interplay between identity, the economy and inequality to explain the dynamics of populist votes since the beginning of the 20th century. The book discusses the political and economic implications of populist governance using data on populist incumbencies and linking it to historical data on the macro economy and democracy. Chapters draw from the most recent political science, economics and other social science literature, as well as historical data, to explain the long-term causes and consequences of populism. Populism emerges and gains traction when political entrepreneurs exploit underlying identity conflicts for political gains. As the distributional consequences of both economic distress and economic growth typically favor the elite over the poor and the lower middle class, economic shocks usually sharpen the underlying identity conflicts between the groups. The book provides evidence of significant differences in the ways fiscal and monetary policies are conducted by incumbent populists in Latin America, Europe and the OECD. The work concludes by suggesting avenues through which a 21st century social consensus can be built, so that our society can avoid repeating the mistakes that led to wars and failed economic experiments in the 20th century. The Political Economy of Populism marks a significant contribution to the study of populism and is suited to students and scholars across the social sciences, including economics, political science and sociology.
