Advanced Non-Thermal Power Generation Systems

Advanced Non-Thermal Power Generation Systems

Generally sources for power generation are broken down into two categories: thermal and non-thermal. Thermal sources for power generation include combustion geothermal solar nuclear and waste heat which essentially provide heat as a means for power generation. This book examines non-thermal (mechanical electrochemical nanoscale self-powered and hybrid) sources of power generation and emphasizes recent advances in distributed power generation systems. Key Features Details recent advances made in wind power including onshore offshore fixed and floating platform and air wind energy systems and offers detailed assessments of progress Covers advances in generation of hydropower exploring dam hydropower novel wave energy converters and novel systems and turbines for hydrokinetic energy conversion to power Examines all types of fuel cells and their multi-functional roles along with hybrid fuel cell systems in complete detail Explores advances in the development of self-powered nanogenerators for use in portable wearable and implantable power electronics Focuses on technologies with the best commercial possibilities and provides perspectives on future challenges that need to be solved This book will be of value to all researchers in academia industry and government interested in pursuing power generation technologies and seeking a comprehensive understanding of available and emerging non-thermal power generation sources. Readers who are interested in learning about thermal power generation sources can find it in the author’s companion text Advanced Power Generation Systems: Thermal Sources (2023). | Advanced Non-Thermal Power Generation Systems

Critically Ill Children and the Law Medical Decision-Making and the Best Interests Principle

Critically Ill Children and the Law Medical Decision-Making and the Best Interests Principle

A series of recent high-profile court cases has demonstrated the inadequacy of current laws in addressing issues relating to medical treatment decisions involving seriously ill children. The challenges of determining that life-sustaining medical treatment is not in a young child’s best interests have resulted in criticism of the best interests principle. This book explores the theoretical foundations of the best interests principle and alternatives offered in the academic literature to allow readers to understand why the principle remains contentious despite its prevalence. It provides theoretical background exploration of what occurs in practice and proposes a novel approach to address these challenges. Frameworks for decision-making identified in the academic literature are used to examine the application of the best interests principle in practice in England and Wales Australia and New Zealand through a review of the case law and qualitative research with paediatric doctors. The exploration of current practice allows readers to understand the challenges of applying the best interests principle but also the need to retain a focus on the child. Readers are introduced to a human-rights based approach which ensures that the focus remains on upholding the child’s best interests but also provides a more comprehensive explanation of the situation. Progressing the debate around end-of-life decision-making and children the book will be a valuable resource for academics researchers and policy-makers. It will also provide practical guidance to both legal and medical practitioners in managing disputes about the provision of life-sustaining treatment. | Critically Ill Children and the Law Medical Decision-Making and the Best Interests Principle

Hybrid Frequentist/Bayesian Power and Bayesian Power in Planning Clinical Trials

Hybrid Frequentist/Bayesian Power and Bayesian Power in Planning Clinical Trials

Hybrid Frequentist/Bayesian Power and Bayesian Power in Planning Clinical Trials provides a practical introduction to unconditional approaches to planning randomised clinical trials particularly aimed at drug development in the pharmaceutical industry. This book is aimed at providing guidance to practitioners in using average power assurance and related concepts. This book brings together recent research and sets them in a consistent framework and provides a fresh insight into how such methods can be used. Features: A focus on normal theory linking average power expected power predictive power assurance conditional Bayesian power and Bayesian power. Extensions of the concepts to binomial and time-to-event outcomes and non-inferiority trials An investigation into the upper bound on average power assurance and Bayesian power based on the prior probability of a positive treatment effect Application of assurance to a series of trials in a development program and an introduction of the assurance of an individual trial conditional on the positive outcome of an earlier trial in the program or to the successful outcome of an interim analysis Prior distribution of power and sample size Extension of the basic approach to proof-of-concept trials with dual success criteria Investigation of the connection between conditional and predictive power at an interim analysis and power and assurance Introduction of the idea of surety in sample sizing of clinical trials based on the width of the confidence intervals for the treatment effect and an unconditional version.

Power Plant Engineering

Power Plant Engineering

Our lives and the functioning of modern societies are intimately intertwined with electricity consumption. We owe our quality of life to electricity. However the electricity generation industry is partly responsible for some of the most pressing challenges we currently face including climate change and the pollution of natural environments energy inequality and energy insecurity. Maintaining our standard of living while addressing these problems is the ultimate challenge for the future of humanity. The objective of this book is to equip engineering and science students and professionals to tackle this task. Written by an expert with over 25 years of combined academic and industrial experience in the field this comprehensive textbook covers both fossil fuels and renewable power generation technologies. For each topic fundamental principles historical backgrounds and state-of-the-art technologies are covered. Conventional power production technologies steam power plants gas turbines and combined cycle power plants are presented. For steam power plants the historical background thermodynamic principles steam generators combustion systems emission reduction technologies steam turbines condensate-feedwater systems and cooling systems are covered in separate chapters. Similarly the historical background and thermodynamic principles of gas turbines along with comprehensive discussions on compressors combustors and turbines are presented and then followed with combined cycle power plants. The second half of the book deals with renewable energy sources including solar photovoltaic systems solar thermal power plants wind turbines ocean energy systems and geothermal power plants. For each energy source the available energy and its variations historical background operational principles basic calculations current and future technologies and environmental impacts are presented. Finally energy storage systems as required technologies to address the intermittent nature of renewable energy sources are covered. While the book has been written with the needs of undergraduate and graduate college students in mind professionals interested in widening their understanding of the field can also benefit from it. | Power Plant Engineering
