The present book is a novel attempt to make available the students an exhaustive, interesting and valuable information on the subject of Economic Zoology. All kinds of animal pathogens such as protozoans, helminths, nematodes, mites and ticks and household insects, directly or indirectly causing diseases in other animals including humans, have been described in detail covering every aspect of their life history along with the symptoms appearing on the hosts, and their prevention, control and cure. Furthermore, along with the animal pathogens mentioned above, plant pathogens, such as insects, acting as pests of a variety of crops have also been described in full detail. Apart from the harmful effects, animals are also beneficial to mankind. This seems to be justified when we go through the chapters relating to apiculture, lac culture and sericulture along with fisheries, prawn culture, pearl culture, cattle farming, pig farming and poultry farming. Key Features • Chapters enriched with photomicrographs present a realistic description. • Exclusive life cycle diagrams of pathogens are helpful in understanding important events of their life. • Exhaustive coverage of the subject matter helps students to understand the concepts with clarity and provide a wide range of information in a single volume. • Chapter-end review questions help students to prepare for the examinations and assess their subject knowledge.

The drive to develop more sustainable materials has made fly ash a valuable raw material in many different applications. Comprehensive and authoritative, Handbook of Fly Ash highlights the latest research efforts to develop the properties of fly ash to maximum utility while safeguarding the environment. This book takes an interdisciplinary approach to the research into the classification and compositions of various types of fly ash, such as bottom ash and boiler slag, special classes of fly ash, and their sources around the globe. This is followed by a discussion of fly ash-reinforced composites, such as elastomer-based composites and metal matrix composites. This book also covers a wide range of applications of fly ash in cement, concrete, bricks and blocks, road construction, wastewater treatment, and scrubber sludge solidification. - Highlights the recent developments in the utilization of fly ash including its preparation, functionalization, properties, and handling. - Places a focus on a wide variety of fly ash applications including recent innovations, such as alkali-activated binder, polypropylene composite, and geopolymer concrete. - Includes comprehensive coverage of the characteristics of fly ash with a particular focus on health hazards if it is not properly disposed. - Discusses fly ash-reinforced composites, such as polymer/elastomer-based composites and metal matrix composites.
The Textbook of Traumatic Brain Inury has been written in such a manner that it will benefit young trainee neurosurgeons, trauma experts, medical students, teachers and also academicians practicing in the area of head injury and its management. Fifty-six chapters in this book includes all important academic and clinical aspects involved in management of head injury. Each chapter is written and reviewed by the foremost authorities in neuropsychiatry, neurology, rehabilitation medicine, and the other specialties who assess, diagnose, and treat these patients. It addresses incidence, epidemiology.

Unleash the power of cloud computing using Azure, AWS and Apache HadoopÊ Description With the advent of internet, there is a complete paradigm shift in the manner we comprehend computing. Need to enable ubiquity, convenient and on-demand access to resources in highly scalable and resilient environments that can be remotely accessed, gave birth to the concept of Cloud computing. The acceptance is so rapid that the notion influences sophisticated innovations in academia, industry and research world-wide and hereby change the landscape of information technology as we thought of. Through this book, the authors tried to incorporate core principles and basic notion of cloud computing in a step-by-step manner and tried to emphasize on key concepts for clear and thorough insight into the subject. Audience This book is intended for students of B.E., B.Tech., B.Sc., M.Sc., M.E., and M.Tech. as a text book. The content is designed keeping in mind the bench marked curriculum of various universities (both National and International). The book covers not only the technical details of how cloud works but also exhibits the strategy, technical design, and in-depth knowledge required to migrate existing applications to the cloud. Therefore, it makes it relevant for the beginners who wants to learn cloud computing right from the foundation. Aspiring Cloud Computing Researchers Instructors, Academicians and Professionals, if they are familiar with cloud, can use this book to learn various open source cloud computing tools, applications, technologies. They will also get a flavor of various international certification exams available.

The book presents a detailed comparison between traditional construction techniques and 3D printing construction. The comparison focuses on four primary parameters: mechanism, composition, time and cost. The operational details of each technology (cast-in situ, pre-stress, post-tension) are reviewed and comparison criteria for all techniques are formulated. In conclusion, 3D printing seems to be well on its way to transform the whole construction industry. Keywords: 3D Concrete Printing, Cast-in-Situ Technology, Pre-Cast Technology, Pre-Stressed Technology, Post-Tension Technology, 3D-Printable Materials, Extrudability, Buildability, Workability, Open Time, Contact Strength between Layers, Aggregates, Water-Cement Ratio, Rheological and Mechanical Properties of 3D Printable Materials, Reinforcement Strategies, Printability Window, Cost Analysis, Green Concrete, Self-Healing Concrete.
