The Solar System 1
Author: Therese Encrenaz
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 1789450330
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 354
Book Description
This book presents a global and synthetic vision of planetology – the study of objects in the Solar System. In the past several decades, planetology has undergone a real revolution, marked in particular by the discovery of the Kuiper belt beyond Neptune, the discovery of extrasolar planets, and also by the space exploration of ever more distant objects. Today, it is at the crossroads of many disciplines: astronomy, geophysics, geochemistry and biology. The Solar System 1 deals with the Solar System as a whole, offering a general presentation of the objects that compose it and its place in the galaxy. It also deals with planetary systems, exoplanets and the interaction of Solar System objects with interplanetary medium. Finally, it analyzes the telluric and giant planets.

The Science of Reason
Author: Ken Manktelow
Publisher: Psychology Press
ISBN: 1136939083
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 631
Book Description
This volume is a state-of-the-art survey of the psychology of reasoning, based around, and in tribute to, one of the field’s most eminent figures: Jonathan St B.T. Evans. In this collection of cutting edge research, Evans’ collaborators and colleagues review a wide range of important and developing areas of inquiry. These include biases in thinking, probabilistic and causal reasoning, people’s use of ‘if’ sentences in arguments, the dual-process theory of thought, and the nature of human rationality. These foundational issues are examined from various angles and finally integrated in a concluding panoramic chapter written by Evans himself. The eighteen chapters, all written by leading international researchers, combine state-of the-art research with investigation into the most fundamental questions surrounding human mental life, such as: What is the architecture of the human mind? Are humans rational, and what is the nature of this rationality? How do we think hypothetically? The Science of Reason offers a unique combination of breadth, depth and integrative vision, making it an indispensable resource for researchers and students of human reason.

Control and Dynamic Systems V50: Robust Control System Techniques and Applications
Author: C.T. Leonides
Publisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 0323163025
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 480
Book Description
Control and Dynamic Systems: Advances in Theory and Applications, Volume 50: Robust Control System Techniques and Applications, Part 1 of 2 is a two-volume sequence devoted to the issues and application of robust control systems techniques. This volume is composed of 10 chapters and begins with a presentation of the important techniques for dealing with conflicting design objectives in control systems. The subsequent chapters describe the robustness techniques of systems using differential-difference equations; the design of a wide class of robust nonlinear systems, the techniques for dealing with the problems resulting from the use of observers in robust systems design, and the effective techniques for the robust control on non-linear time varying of tracking control systems with uncertainties. These topics are followed by discussions of the effective techniques for the robust control on non-linear time varying of tracking control systems with uncertainties and for incorporating adaptive control techniques into a (non-adaptive) robust control design. Other chapters present techniques for achieving exponential and robust stability for a rather general class of nonlinear systems, techniques in modeling uncertain dynamics for robust control systems design, and techniques for the optimal synthesis of these systems. The last chapters provide a generalized eigenproblem solution for both singular and nonsingular system cases. These chapters also look into the stability robustness design for discrete-time systems. This book will be of value to process and systems engineers, designers, and researchers.

Consumer Neuroscience
Author: Moran Cerf
Publisher: MIT Press
ISBN: 0262341611
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 362
Book Description
A comprehensive introduction to using the tools and techniques of neuroscience to understand how consumers make decisions about purchasing goods and services. Contrary to the assumptions of economists, consumers are not always rational actors who make decisions in their own best interests. The new field of behavioral economics draws on the insights of psychology to study non-rational decision making. The newer field of consumer neuroscience draws on the findings, tools, and techniques of neuroscience to understand how consumers make judgments and decisions. This book is the first comprehensive treatment of consumer neuroscience, suitable for classroom use or as a reference for business and marketing practitioners. After an overview of the field, the text offers the background on the brain and physiological systems necessary for understanding how they work in the context of decision making and reviews the sensory and perceptual mechanisms that govern our perception and experience. Chapters by experts in the field investigate tools for studying the brain, including fMRI, EEG, eye-tracking, and biometrics, and their possible use in marketing. The book examines the relation of attention, memory, and emotion to consumer behavior; cognitive factors in decision making; and the brain's reward system. It describes how consumers develop implicit associations with a brand, perceptions of pricing, and how consumer neuroscience can encourage healthy behaviors. Finally, the book considers ethical issues raised by the application of neuroscience tools to marketing. Contributors Fabio Babiloni, Davide Baldo, David Brandt, Moran Cerf, Yuping Chen, Patrizia Cherubino, Kimberly Rose Clark, Maria Cordero-Merecuana, William A. Cunningham, Manuel Garcia-Garcia, Ming Hsu, Ana Iorga, Philip Kotler, Carl Marci, Hans Melo, Kai-Markus Müller, Brendan Murray, Ingrid L. C. Nieuwenhuis, Graham Page, Hirak Parikh, Dante M.

Recent Advances in Modeling, Analysis and Systems Control: Theoretical Aspects and Applications
Author: El Hassan Zerrik
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030261492
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 274
Book Description
This book describes recent developments in a wide range of areas, including the modeling, analysis and control of dynamical systems, and explores related applications. The book provided a forum where researchers have shared their ideas, results on theory, and experiments in application problems. The current literature devoted to dynamical systems is quite large, and the authors’ choice for the considered topics was motivated by the following considerations. Firstly, the mathematical jargon for systems theory remains quite complex and the authors feel strongly that they have to maintain connections between the people of this research field. Secondly, dynamical systems cover a wider range of applications, including engineering, life sciences and environment. The authors consider that the book is an important contribution to the state of the art in the fuzzy and dynamical systems areas.

Your Trading Brain
Author:
Publisher: Edward Primm
ISBN:
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 94
Book Description
Your Trading Brain provides a unique approach to mental management from a biological perspective. The fundamental problem traders face is that the human brain wasn't designed for the psychological aspects of trading, and it naturally works in a myriad of paradoxical ways that directly oppose trading success. It’s always us that ultimately beats ourselves, but we don’t know why – because the true nature of what’s beating us is unknown. The working cognitive parts haven’t been dissected, the cause-and-effect relationships haven’t been closely studied, and their counterproductive effects on our self-control and decision-making haven’t been realized. Your Trading Brain aims to exclusively focus on this vital subject and clearly illustrate the powerful forces of nature that traders are up against. Not in an abstract psychological way (which is also important) but in core neuroscientific ways that approach performance problems directly at their biological sources. By leveraging profound and practical insights from the fields of neuro and behavioral science, we’ll explore the universal problem areas each trader encounters, provide explanations for their occurrence, and offer effective strategies to address them at their points of origin. Here’s a summary of the topics covered in Your Trading Brain: The Primal Brain: Our investigation will begin by uncovering the primal origins of our emotions, how they’re generated, the unique and specific ways in which they derail traders, and how to manage them on a biological level. The Modern Brain: You’ll learn how our brains use dual-process thinking to make quick judgments and deliberate decisions. We’ll examine the benefits and disadvantages of each process and how to avoid making judgment mistakes. Willpower: You’ll also learn about the limitations of willpower along with uncommonly known paradoxes that every trader should be knowledgeable of and prepared to mitigate. The Subconscious Mind: Finally, we’re going to delve into the territory of the unconscious and explore the enigmatic processes of the subconscious mind. We’ll investigate the mysterious inner workings that guide our attention, perceptions, and behavior in unconscious ways and learn how to develop a well-rounded mindset that supports our outcomes from an unconscious level. Mental Training: In the second section of the book, we’ll create a 4-page self-knowledge worksheet with the aim of exploring and documenting your unique counterproductive tendencies. Furthermore, you’ll be guided through 3 simple and effective mental training exercises, focusing on thoughts, feelings, and actions to help develop your brain into a peak-performance machine. When you finish Your Trading Brain, you’ll have gained a unique and vital understanding of the mental playing field along with supportive strategies and practices to help navigate its many hidden pitfalls.
