Phased Arrays for Radio Astronomy, Remote Sensing, and Satellite Communications

By: Karl F. Warnick,Rob Maaskant,Marianna V. Ivashina,David B. Davidson,Brian D. Jeffs

Discover a modern approach to the analysis, modeling and design of high sensitivity phased arrays. Network theory, numerical methods and computational electromagnetic simulation techniques are uniquely combined to enable full system analysis and design optimization. Beamforming and array signal processing theory are integrated into the treatment from the start. Digital signal processing methods such as polyphase filtering and RFI mitigation are described, along with technologies for real-time hardware implementation. Key concepts from interferometric imaging used in radio telescopes are also considered. A basic development of theory and modeling techniques is accompanied by problem sets that guide readers in developing modeling codes that retain the simplicity of the classical array factor method while incorporating mutual coupling effects and interactions between elements. Combining current research trends with pedagogical material suitable for a first-year graduate course, this is an invaluable resource for students, teachers, researchers, and practicing RF/microwave and antenna design engineers.

Biological Globalisation

Bio-Invasions and Their Impact on Nature, the Economy and Public Health

By: Wouter van der Weijden,Rob Leewis,Pieter Bol

Bioglobalisation is anything but new. The exotic fungus Phytophtora has threatened European potato harvests since 1846. Since then, the number of deliberate and accidental introductions of exotic species has grown rapidly. Environmental factors such as climate change also play an increasing role. This book is a thorough and informative overview of all aspects of bioglobalisation. It describes its nature and scope, as well as history, drivers and mechanisms. Using vivid examples, the book addresses which species are likely to become invasive, which bioregions are vulnerable, and whether we can - and should - try to control bio-invasions. Separate chapters address the impacts of bioglobalisation on the environment and on our economy, and discuss, for instance, how virus invasions are threatening human lives worldwide.

Cardiovascular and Pulmonary Physical Therapy E-Book

By: Donna Frownfelter,Elizabeth Dean,Marcia Stout,Rob Kruger,Joseph Anthony

Commensurate with an emphasis on evidence-based practice and health competencies to improve patient outcomes, get a solid foundation in cardiovascular and pulmonary physiology and rehabilitation! Cardiovascular and Pulmonary Physical Therapy: Evidence and Practice, 6th Edition provides a holistic, person-centered approach to the spectrum of cardiovascular and pulmonary physical therapy. From examination and evaluation to interventions, this book guides you through the health promotion strategies for maximizing patients' health and wellbeing, in conjunction with managing the needs of patients with acute and chronic conditions, those in intensive care units, and of special populations such as children and elders. Selected case studies translate related scientific research into evidence-based practice and enhance clinical decision making. Now including an enhanced eBook version (with print purchase), this text details the latest best practices to help achieve the best physical therapy outcomes. - Coverage of evidence-based practice includes the latest research from leading top-tier journals to support physical therapist clinical reasoning and decision making. - Realistic scenarios and case examples show the application of concepts to evidence-based practice. - Holistic approach supports treating the whole person rather than just the symptoms of a disease or disorder, covering medical, physiological, psychological, psychosocial, therapeutic, practical, and methodological aspects. - Full-color photos and illustrations enhance your understanding of the book's concepts, ideas, and management considerations. - Emphasis on the terminology and guidelines of the APTA's Guide to Physical Therapist Practice keeps the book consistent with the practice standards in physical therapy, including the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health. - Primary and secondary cardiovascular and pulmonary conditions are emphasized, along with their co-existence. - Multimorbidity focus is used rather than a single-disease framework, with attention to implications for assessment, management, and evaluation. - Integrated approach to oxygen transport demonstrates how the cardiovascular and pulmonary systems function interdependently to support all organ systems. - Key terms and review questions in each chapter focus your learning on important concepts and translating these into practice. - NEW! Updated content reflects the latest research and clinical practice in the field. - NEW! eBook version included only with print purchase allows you to access all the text, figures, and references, with the ability to search, customize your content, make notes and highlights, and have content read aloud. - NEW! Video clips, interviews with authors and other experts in their fields, and more are available in the eBook version included only with print purchase. - NEW! Expanded contributions from experts from multiple countries maximize the validity of content.
