This book discusses the theory, general principles, and energy source conditions allowing for the emergence of life in planetary systems. The author examines the material conditions found in natural hydrothermal sites, the appropriate analogs of prebiotic environments on early Earth. He provides an overview of current laboratory experiments in prebiotic materials chemistry and substantiation of a new direction for the experiments in the origin of life field.

• Describes thermodynamic inversion and how it relates to the living cell;
  
• Examines the...

Christoph Junginger zeigt, dass das etablierte, uber hundert Jahre alte, analytische Berechnungsverfahren zur Bestimmung der Stromverdrangung mit seiner Annahme eines reinen Nutquerfeldes fur hoch ausgenutzte elektrische Maschinen mit flachen Massivleitern nicht ausreicht. Der Autor legt dar, dass es durch zusatzliche Effekte zu einer signifikanten Beeinflussung der resultierenden Stromverdrangung kommen kann. Mit der magnetischen Sattigung, der nebeneinanderliegenden Anordnung von zwei zu verschiedenen Strangen gehorenden Spulenseiten in einer Nut und der Wechselwirkung mit dem...

This book examines all facets of energy use, energy sources, and sustainable energy. It clearly explains the need for an integrated engineering approach to sustainable energies. The emphasis is on coupling and hybridizing systems to implement resilient and efficient alternatives to existing energy systems. It discusses current energy systems, both sustainable as well as those that claim to be sustainable. This book is a result of a collaborative work of many contributors from different backgrounds all focused on a particular approach to better integrate all technologies in a set of...

The book aims to equalize the theoretical involvement with industrial practicality and build a bridge between academia and industry by reducing the mathematical difficulties. It provides an overview of distributed control and distributed optimization theory, followed by specific details on industrial applications to renewable energy systems, with a special focus on micro gird systems. Each of the chapters is written and organized with an introductory section tailored to provide the essential background of the theories required. The text includes industrial applications to realistic...

Advances in Renewable Energies and Power Technologies: Volume 2: Geothermal and Biomass Energies, Fuel Cells and Smart Grid examines both the theoretical and practical elements of these renewable energy sources, covering geothermal, biomass, fuel cells, RES, distributed, smart grids and converters control. In addition to explaining the principles and methods of each technology, the authors present an analysis of their implementation, as well as the power control technologies and their limitations. The inclusion of recent case studies and models of each technology make this a...

This unique book offers a comprehensive and integrated introduction to the five fundamental elements of life and society: energy, information, feedback, adaptation, and self-organization. It is divided into two parts. Part I is concerned with energy (definition, history, energy types, energy sources, environmental impact); thermodynamics (laws, entropy definitions, energy, branches of thermodynamics, entropy interpretations, arrow of time); information (communication and transmission, modulation-demodulation, coding-decoding, information theory, information technology, information science,...
