Useful reference text underpinning the theory behind wind resource assessment along with its practical application. Handbook of Wind Resource Assessment provides a comprehensive description of the background theory, methods, models, applications, and analysis of the discipline of wind resource assessment, covering topics such as climate variability, measurement, wind distributions, numerical modeling, statistical modeling, reanalysis datasets, applications in different environments (onshore and offshore), wind atlases, and future climate. The text provides an up-to-date assessment of the tools available for wind resource assessment and their application in different environments. It also summarizes our present understanding of the wind climate and its variability, with a particular focus on its relevance to wind resource assessment.

The manufacturing industry is a cornerstone of national economy and people’s livelihood. It is the way of transforming resources into products or goods which are required to cater to the needs of the society. Traditional manufacturing companies currently face several challenges such as rapid technological changes, inventory problem, shortened innovation, short product life cycles, volatile demand, low prices, highly customized products, and ability to compete in the global markets. Modern manufacturing is highly competitive due to globalization and fast changes in the global market. This book reviews emerging technologies in manufacturing. These technologies include Artificial Intelligence (AI), smart manufacturing, lean manufacturing, robotics, automation, 3D printing, nanotechnology, industrial Internet of things, and augmented reality. The use of these technologies will have a profound impact on the manufacturing industry. The book consists of 19 chapters. Each chapter addresses a single emerging technology in depth and describes how manufacturing organizations are adopting the technology. The book fills an important niche for manufacturing. It is a comprehensive, jargon-free introductory text on the issues, ideas, theories, and problems on emerging technologies in manufacturing. It is a must-read book for beginners or anyone who wants to be updated about emerging technologies.

This book considers the problems of network-based control and optimization. With the rapid development of science and technology, networks play an important role in control systems. Typically, in a control system, the plant and the controller may communicate via a network. Such systems are called networked control systems and they have received significant attention in the literature. The introduction of a network has many advantages such as low cost, easy installation, and maintenance. However, a network also introduces some imperfections such as varying sampling, transmission delays, transmission protocols, packet losses, and so on. Besides, the network may also suffer from network attacks such as Denial of Service attacks. These imperfections may degrade the system performance and even make the closed-loop systems unstable. Therefore, it is necessary to investigate the effect of these imperfections on the stability and performance of control systems in a quantitative manner.
