"The work by Wang et al. suggests a host of applications in optoelectronics, for example infrared polarizers or polarization detectors, using arrays in which the MWCNTs have a range of lengths, and wavelength-specific detectors, for which the MWCNTs are fabricated to all have the same desired length. MWCNTs are preferable to SWCNTs for their electrical metallicity and greater mechanical robustness, and their random spacing in the arrays suppresses interference effects. The preparation of the MWCNT arrays could easily be extended to a high-throughput process with the use of established...

Fostering the green energy world has become a hot
topic in recent years. More and more hybrid vehicles
find their way into the consumer market. Batteries
or ultracapacitors are usually employed as the
second energy source in hybrid vehicles. Compared
with batteries, ultracapacitors have more advantages
such as higher energy densities, long life cycles
and environment-friendly. In order to have a good
control strategy in hybrid vehicle to take advantage
of ultracapacitor, its model must be accurate. In
this book, short-term and long-term models have been
developed. For the...

This book explores robust multimodal cognitive load measurement with physiological and behavioural modalities, which involve the eye, Galvanic Skin Response, speech, language, pen input, mouse movement and multimodality fusions. Factors including stress, trust, and environmental factors such as illumination are discussed regarding their implications for cognitive load measurement. Furthermore, dynamic workload adjustment and real-time cognitive load measurement with data streaming are presented in order to make cognitive load measurement accessible by more widespread applications and users....
