Enzymatic Technologies for Marine Polysaccharides

Enzymatic Technologies for Marine Polysaccharides

The bioactivity potential of marine polysaccharides has long been considered an underexploited aspect. These molecules found in seaweed microalgae bacteria and animal fish (shellfish mollusks etc. ) and the derived oligosaccharides need to be explored thoroughly with an interdisciplinary approach. They are an extraordinary source of chemical diversity and the literature highlights many applicative fields including the food industry cosmetics biomedicine agriculture environmental protection wastewater management etc. More recently a new challenge has emerged: the exploitation of marine biomass as the source of sustainable energy to participate in the future replacement of fossil resources. Enzymatic Technologies for Marine Polysaccharides provides insight into the recent research developments of marine polysaccharides and their current and potential applications. The first section of the book explores the diversity of marine polysaccharides from various angles including a description of the chemical complexity and current applications and new perspectives in food pharmaceutical cosmetics and biomaterials offered by recent research. Efficient valorization of the marine polysaccharide biomass requires a rigorous analysis of the polysaccharides structure and their biological properties. The second section of the book concerns the development of extraction techniques and the improvement of the methods aimed at the characterization of their structure and function. Finally the third and last section of the book articulates the enzymatic technologies from the discovery of novel enzymes to their production pipelines related to the fields of biorefinery food pharmaceutics and other fine chemicals. Presents the latest research in marine oligosaccharides and polysaccharides Written by world-class researchers in marine enzyme technology Discusses the latest developments in extraction methods Presents a detailed overview of enzymatic routes for modification production and synthesis of marine oligosaccharides Contains extensive references at the end of each chapter to enhance further study

Inductive Learning Algorithms for Complex Systems Modeling

Optics for Engineers

Optics for Engineers

The field of optics has become central to major developments in medical imaging remote sensing communication micro- and nanofabrication and consumer technology among other areas. Applications of optics are now found in products such as laser printers bar-code scanners and even mobile phones. There is a growing need for engineers to understand the principles of optics in order to develop new instruments and improve existing optical instrumentation. Based on a graduate course taught at Northeastern University Optics for Engineers provides a rigorous practical introduction to the field of optics. Drawing on his experience in industry the author presents the fundamentals of optics related to the problems encountered by engineers and researchers in designing and analyzing optical systems. Beginning with a history of optics the book introduces Maxwell‘s equations the wave equation and the eikonal equation which form the mathematical basis of the field of optics. It then leads readers through a discussion of geometric optics that is essential to most optics projects. The book also lays out the fundamentals of physical optics polarization interference and diffraction in sufficient depth to enable readers to solve many realistic problems. It continues the discussion of diffraction with some closed-form expressions for the important case of Gaussian beams. A chapter on coherence guides readers in understanding the applicability of the results in previous chapters and sets the stage for an exploration of Fourier optics. Addressing the importance of the measurement and quantification of light in determining the performance limits of optical systems the book then covers radiometry photometry and optical detection. It also introduces nonlinear optics. This comprehensive reference includes downloadable MATLAB code as well as numerous problems examples and illustrations. An introductory text for

Supply Chain Management for Engineers

Supply Chain Management for Engineers

Originally taught mainly in business schools supply chain management has become a common elective and graduate course in engineering colleges. The increasing demand for engineers with supply chain knowledge has fed this shift. However supply chain management textbooks that have a reasonable coverage of quantitative analysis techniques are few and far between. Concise straightforward and easy-to-read Supply Chain Management for Engineers uses practical problems to introduce key concepts and cultivate students problem-solving skills. Helping students hone their analytical skills and develop the ability to solve real-world problems the book: Includes a simulation game for practicing supply chain management skills Covers the use of practical software tools including Gurobi Optimizer and Microsoft EXCEL Facilitates the use of problem-based learning (PBL) pedagogy Provides a theoretical framework for supply chain design and supplier selection Focusing on quantitative aspects this book uses example problems to introduce key concepts and case studies to strengthen students analysis and synthesis skills. In addition to exercises this book also provides several problems that are relatively complicated and can be used as mini projects that link theoretical concepts to practical problem solving. It also presents a simulation game where students can play the roles of suppliers OEMs and retailers within a supply chain environment to practice the skills they acquire. It also stresses the importance of integrating engineering optimization techniques with business strategic thinking. These features and more give students the supply chain knowledge and problem-solving skills increasingly required for engineers entering the work force.

Patent Fundamentals for Scientists and Engineers

Patent Fundamentals for Scientists and Engineers

The most significant overhaul of the U. S. patent laws in decades occurred with the recent passage of the Leahy-Smith America Invents Act (AIA). Understanding the law that dictates what a patent is and how a patent is obtained and enforced and the recent changes through statute or case law litigation presents unique challenges. This third edition of Patent Fundamentals for Scientists and Engineers examines the new Act and provides an overview of the patent system for the independent inventor as well as for members of the scientific and business community whether a scientist engineer supervisor or manager. In addition to a new chapter dedicated to the America Invents Act the third edition includes annotations of the recent law changes updates in all chapters new figures and new case studies. The authors discuss patent filing outside of the United States and also dedicate a chapter specifically to the Canadian patent system. They describe the key topics that anyone involved in the patent process needs to know including what makes an invention patentable the art of patent searching and the crucial role of record keeping. The text also includes an indispensable glossary of patent terminology as well as an appendix with sample U. S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) forms. This book provides a valuable guide to assist inventors in dealing with the USPTO as well as with patent professionals. The text describes the patent process from conception to application filing and is a must-have reference for scientists and businesspeople alike. Since the role of patent professionals is to obtain the maximum protection for inventors both the inventor and businessperson would be well advised to understand and participate in all the steps involved. This book offers an excellent insight into the patent process.

Analytical Method Development and Validation

Handbook of Irrigation Hydrology and Management

Handbook of Conservation Agriculture [Two-Volume set]

Handbook of Conservation Agriculture [Two-Volume set]

Conservation agriculture is a sustainable production model that not only optimizes crop yields but also reaps economic and environmental benefits as well. The adoption of successful conservation agriculture methods has resulted in energy savings higher organic matter content and biotic activity in soil increased crop-water availability and thus resilience to drought improved recharge of aquifers less erosion and reduced impacts from the weather associated with climate change in general. This two-volume set Agricultural Impacts of Climate Change and Applied Agricultural Practices for Mitigating Climate Change examines several important aspects of crop production such as climate change soil management farm machinery and different methods for sustainable conservation agriculture.
