There is no sense here that Chiang's men butchered for an eight-hour day and bled trade unionism dry."--Herman Mast III (University of Connecticut) ; "A Chinese city which owes a great debt to Western influence, Shanghai is the largest city in Asia, and one of its most fascinating. Complete with anecdotes and vignettes of everyday life, this vivid biography traces the city's transformation from treaty port to the commercial, industrial, and financial centre that played a vital role in the development of China's political and social consciousness." ; slight mark on textblock, else VG [This online listing has Chinese fonts].

Hardback. Condizione: New. Iterative Learning CONTROL ALGORITHMS AND EXPERIMENTAL BENCHMARKING Iterative Learning Control Algorithms and Experimental Benchmarking Presents key cutting edge research into the use of iterative learning control The book discusses the main methods of iterative learning control (ILC) and its interacti…ons, as well as comparator performance that is so crucial to the end user. The book provides integrated coverage of the major approaches to-date in terms of basic systems, theoretic properties, design algorithms, and experimentally measured performance, as well as the links with repetitive control and other related areas. Key features: Provides comprehensive coverage of the main approaches to ILC and their relative advantages and disadvantages. Presents the leading research in the field along with experimental benchmarking results. Demonstrates how this approach can extend out from engineering to other areas and, in particular, new research into its use in healthcare systems/rehabilitation robotics. The book is essential reading for researchers and graduate students in iterative learning control, repetitive control and, more generally, control systems theory and its applications.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book presents pioneering work on a range of innovative practices, experiments, and ideas that are becoming an integral part of urban climate change governance in the 21st century. Theoretically, the book builds on nearly two decades of scholarships…identifying the emergence of new urban actors, spaces and political dynamics in response to climate change priorities. However, it further articulates and applies the concepts associated with urban climate change governance by bridging formerly disparate disciplines and approaches. Empirically, the chapters investigate new multi-level urban governance arrangements from around the world, and leverage the insights they provide for both theory and practice. Cities - both as political and material entities - are increasingly playing a critical role in shaping the trajectory and impacts of climate change action. However, their policy, planning, and governance responses to climate change are fraught with tension and contradictions. While on one hand local actors play a central role in designing institutions, infrastructures, and behaviors that drive decarbonization and adaptation to changing climatic conditions, their options and incentives are inextricably enmeshed within broader political and economic processes. Resolving these tensions and contradictions is likely to require innovative and multi-level approaches to governing climate change in the city: new interactions, new political actors, new ways of coordinating and mobilizing resources, and new frameworks and technical capacities for decision making. We focus explicitly on those innovations that produce new relationships between levels of government, between government and citizens, and among governments, the private sector, and transnational and civil society actors. A more comprehensive understanding is needed of the innovative approaches being used to navigate the complex networks and relationships that constitute contemporary multi-level urban climate change governance. Debra Roberts, Co-Chair, Working Group II, IPCC 6th Assessment Report (AR6) and Acting Head, Sustainable and Resilient City Initiatives, Durban, South Africa 'Climate Change in Cities offers a refreshingly frank view of how complex cities and city processes really are.'Christopher Gore, Associate Professor and Chair, Department of Politics and Public Administration, Ryerson University, Canada'This book is a rare and welcome contribution engaging critically with questions about cities as central actors in multilevel climate governance but it does so recognizing that there are lessons from cities in both the Global North and South.'Harriet Bulkeley, Professor of Geography, Durham University, United Kingdom'This timely collection provides new insights into how cities can put their rhetoric into action on the ground and explores just how this promise can be realised in cities across the world - from California to Canada, India to Indonesia.'.
