Nature-Based Solutions to 21st Century Challenges

Build the microchips of the future with this revolutionary new information transfer technology Advancements in high-performance computing have continually demanded for progresses in disruptive technological research and innovations. Moore's Law has pushed the Very Large Scale Integration (VLSI) technology to pack MOS devices inside a chip at an exponential rate, thereby surpassing now eight billion transistors per cm2. This has concomitantly fueled the growth of multilayered on-chip interconnects comprising metallic and low dielectric materials. VLSI Interconnect Technology with Artificial Plasmonics introduces a new method for improving chip performance by harnessing the power of information transfer among chips at terahertz frequency. This revolutionary new electromagnetic wave engineering, called a spoof surface plasmon polariton, adapts the principles of VLSI and terahertz interconnect technology along with the artificial plasmonics to transfer huge quantities of data at vastly improved speeds. It constitutes a potentially decisive contribution to the pursuit of faster and more capacious VLSI chips. In VLSI Interconnect Technology with Artificial Plasmonics, readers will also find: <ul> <li>A cutting-edge new approach supported by pioneering research</li> <li>Detailed discussion of essential components related to the development of THz interconnect technology, including theory, modeling, simulation, and validation</li> <li>Roadmap to future technological development in the branch of artificial plasmonics</li> </ul> VLSI Interconnect Technology with Artificial Plasmonics is ideal for engineers, researchers, and scientists working in electronics, electromagnetics, and optics.

VLSI Interconnect Technology with Artificial Plasmonics

This book analyses Artificial Intelligence (AI) and its impact on sustainability, ethics, security, and society. It provides actionable strategies for eco-friendly AI, navigating legal frameworks, and implementing ethical practices. It examines security challenges from AI misuse, outlining necessary cybersecurity enhancements. Real-world case studies bridge theory and practice. Guidance is provided for aligning AI adoption with societal and environmental goals, promoting responsible AI development for a sustainable future. This comprehensive study of AI begins by looking at AI's role in environmental sustainability, providing actionable strategies for eco-friendly AI development and deployment. This includes understanding the complex relationship between AI and the environment to minimize its footprint and promote AI solutions that contribute to environmental goals. The authors extend into insightful discussion on navigating the intricate legal frameworks and implementing ethical AI practices. This guidance reduces the risk of legal challenges and reputational damage, leading to increased trust and responsible AI development and use. Bridging the gap between theory and practice is another important feature in this book. With real-world case studies, the reader gains practical understanding of how AI is being used in different contexts. This further enhances the accelerated adoption and increased innovation of AI solutions in different fields. This book provides a clear roadmap for responsible and sustainable AI integration, aligning AI initiatives with broader societal objectives.The primary audience for this book includes business leaders, professionals, policymakers, technologists and AI practitioners.

A practical, straightforward, and easy-to-use graduate-level textbook on the principles of foundation engineering Advanced Foundation Engineering offers clear and detailed coverage of all aspects of the design, analysis, construction, and testing of structural elements responsible for transferring imposed loads from a superstructure to the ground. Written for advanced undergraduate and graduate engineering students, this comprehensive textbook incorporates traditional foundation engineering topics as well as recent advances and innovations in the field. The authors include discussion of timely issues such as the impact of the digital revolution, worldwide environmental concerns, the increasing scarcity of raw materials, the use of geotechnical data banks, the sustainability of construction materials, and new site investigation techniques. Focused on practical application rather than theoretical background, 27 in-depth chapters address the principles of geotechnical engineering, spread footings and mats, ground modifications, floating and shell foundations, single piles and drilled shafts, testing and calculation procedures, and more. Detailed case studies in each chapter connect the principles and performance of a particular foundation system, illustrate the measurement and evaluation of performance criteria, demonstrate the accuracy of analytical predictions, and validate the assumptions made in the analysis and design process. Providing the knowledge base required to design and build foundations for various types of onshore, offshore, and inland structures, Advanced Foundation Engineering: Outlines the key components of foundation systems, contemporary classification systems, analysis considerations, and design proceduresCovers diverse types of foundations and construction techniques, including shallow and semi-deep foundations, skirted and bucket foundations, floating foundations, and pile groupsDescribes data synthesis in preparing geotechnical reports, interactions between problematic soils and foundation design, and factors influencing the engineering properties of geomaterialsReviews the construction of various foundations on different geomaterials, key geotechnical requirements, and soil improvement methodsProvides insights into mitigating foundation issues, optimizing foundation selection, and maximizing existing foundations Advanced Foundation Engineering: Principles, Performance, and Prospects is an ideal textbook for advanced undergraduate and graduate courses in foundation engineering and geotechnical engineering, and an invaluable reference for professional geotechnical engineers.

Time wants you dead. Not just you, but your friends, family, pets - everyone you've ever met...

'A beautifully written book about life and death: busts myths, explores the stories of science and history, and ultimately is rich and uplifting.' Dr Adam Rutherford

With over 17,000 known diseases affecting humans, and countless poisons, carcinogens and toxins in our environment, it's a miracle that our bodies manage to keep us alive. And that is, of course, if they don't betray us themselves, whether through cancers or autoimmune conditions.

Biomedical researcher Professor John Tregoning tells the unlikely story of how, against all odds, we manage to stay alive. Taking an organ-by-organ tour of the human body, Tregoning embarks on his own experimental quest, testing 'life-extending' diets and exercise regimes to separate fact from fad. Exploring the multitude of ways our bodies can kill us, from inherited genetic conditions, through heart attacks, arrythmias and angina, onto the delicate workings of the brain, Live Forever?&nbsp;offers compelling insight into how our bodies work, how we can best look after them - and ultimately live longer, healthier lives.

'I heartily recommend this deep dive into wellness... It turns out that none of us are getting out of here alive, but John has bravely put his mind and body on the line to discover the secrets of staying healthy and happy as we get older. A funny, fascinating and educative book.' Ben Willbond, co-creator of Ghosts

'The idea that a book about death and dying could be a delightful read seems ridiculous, and yet John Tregoning has pulled off this trick with humour, flair and elegance.' Nessa Carey, author of The Epigenetics Revolution

'An enjoyable and entertaining mixture of scientific facts about ageing and completely unscientific self-experimentation... recognizing that although none of us will live forever, there are ways we can improve our chances of living well while we are still around.' Dame Sarah Gilbert

Using a consistent structure throughout, Resilient Smart Cities examines smart cities in a broad sense, looking at people, governance, economic, mobility, environment, and infrastructure dimensions. It identifies the likely weaknesses of those cities and threats faced, proposing a modeling platform to help enhance resilience of smart cities, offering state-of-the-research and deep literature review. Resilient Smart Cities shows the role smart cities play in achieving sustainability goals through the lens of urban resilience and concludes that smart cities are required to be cities of hope where well-being of the humankind is the center.
