Cardiac Regeneration and Repair, Volume One reviews the pathology of cardiac injury and the latest advances in cell therapy.
Chapters in part one explore the pathogenesis of congestive heart failure, the mechanisms responsible for adverse cardiac matrix remodeling, and potential interventions to restore ventricular function....
The aim of this book is to give a broad overview of the TLM (Transmission Line Matrix) method, which is one of the “time-domain numerical methods”. These methods are reputed for their significant reliance on computer resources. However, they have the advantage of being highly general.
The purpose of the book is to give the reader a feeling for the beauty and the surprises of mathematical research by building up step by step a theory of cycle matrices. The notions of matrix and cycle are presented for those readers who do not yet know the concepts. Then, starting and experimenting with cycle matrices of low dimensions and...
"This extraordinarily powerful book demonstrates how utterly we lack the shared supranational tools needed to fight cybercrime. Essential reading." --Roberto Saviano, author of Gommorah
The benefits of living in a digital, globalized society are enormous; so too are the dangers. The world has become a...
Essential Mathematics for Games and Interactive Applications, 2nd edition presents the core mathematics necessary for sophisticated 3D graphics and interactive physical simulations. The book begins with linear algebra and matrix multiplication and expands on this foundation to cover such topics as color and lighting, interpolation, animation and...
The world of Raspberry Pi is evolving quickly, with many new interface boards and software libraries becoming available all the time. In this cookbook, prolific hacker and author Simon Monk provides more than 200 practical recipes for running this tiny low-cost computer with Linux, programming it with Python, and hooking up sensors,...
The need to analyze a linear network is a recurring requirement in
computer-aided network analysis. Not only a majority of the network
problems to be solved is posed as linear problems; nonlinear resistive and
dynamic networks are usually solved by the analysis of a sequence of
“linearized” networks. The analysis of...
Based on experimental observation, ab initio molecular dynamics was
usedtoinvestigatethedissolutionofinterfacialironoxidesinhotcompressivebond-
ing (HCB). The surface analysis indicated that there was reoxidation at the unclosed
iron surface during the sample heating in HCB. The bonding of pre-oxidized iron
was...

Android phones are a great platform for developing apps, but sometimes it is nice if those apps go beyond the built-in hardware of the phone and connect to some homemade electronics.
The IOIO board allows you to do just that, and this book will show you how to use the IOIO board and interface it to various different...
Because of the wide use of adaptive filtering in digital signal processing and, because most of the modern electronic devices include some type of an adaptive filter, a text that brings forth the fundamentals of this field was necessary. The material and the principles presented in this book are easily accessible to engineers, scientists, and...
This book presents a comprehensive course of quantum mechanics for undergraduate and graduate students. After a brief outline of the innovative ideas that lead up to the quantum theory, the book reviews properties of the Schrödinger equation, the quantization phenomena and the physical meaning of wave functions. The book discusses, in a...
