Buch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - In today's healthcare landscape, the reliability and availability of biomedical equipment are crucial for delivering safe and effective patient care. Dialysis machines, in particular, demand consistent performance, as equipment failure can directly impact patient survival. This book bridges the gap between engineering and healthcare by presenting advanced maintenance strategies that move beyond traditional corrective and preventive approaches toward predictive, data-driven methods. Combining reliability theory, probabilistic modeling and statistical tools such as Weibull analysis, Fault Tree Analysis and Bayesian Networks, Optimizing Predictive Maintenance of Biomedical Equipment demonstrates how failure histories and real-time monitoring can guide proactive maintenance decisions. It provides practical guidance for optimizing equipment reliability and availability, while reducing downtime and resource waste. Designed for engineers, healthcare professionals and decision-makers, this book emphasizes step-by-step implementation of predictive maintenance frameworks in real-world clinical environments. By integrating technical rigor with patient-centered outcomes, this work highlights how strategic maintenance not only enhances equipment performance, but ultimately safeguards human lives.

Buch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Artificial intelligence (AI) technologies play a transformative role in several areas of knowledge, including management and engineering. Their adoption has been driven by the advancement of machine learning algorithms, increased computing power, and the availability of large volumes of data, making AI technologies indispensable for process optimization and strategic decision-making. However, organizations must invest in research, development and professional training to ensure AI is used ethically and sustainably to drive progress.

Buch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Polymers and composites are ubiquitous in our daily lives, enabling, for example, lighter structural materials and food packaging. Their performance depends not only on their chemical structure, synthesis, architecture and shaping process, but also evolves over time under the effect of processes that modify the structure of the material - sometimes slowly but irreversibly. Users must therefore consider the maximum period of use during which these materials retain acceptable levels of properties. This question is even more crucial as it responds to societal demands related to limiting end-of-life waste flows and preserving the resources needed to produce them. To address these challenges, Aging of Industrial Polymers 2 provides designers with tools to analyze the mechanisms of material degradation under given conditions of use, develop models to predict the rate of degradation, and understand the effect of phenomena occurring at the molecular level on the macroscopic properties of the material.

Buch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Responding to the growing demand for rigorous modeling frameworks capable of addressing complex technological challenges across disciplines, this book offers a coherent panorama of contemporary methodologies. These span lossless image compression algorithms, electrical impedance tomography and extragradient methods for variational inequalities in Banach spaces. It further examines multiphysics modeling in environmental engineering, grid-supported magnetic levitation systems and the optimization of water transport in porous media for sustainable irrigation. Foundational stochastic tools - such as gamma processes and hidden Markov models for reliability and maintenance planning - are integrated with theoretical advances, including matrix polynomials on noncommutative sets.

Buch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Urban and peri-urban agriculture currently attracts considerable attention from citizens, policymakers and researchers. Perceived positively for its contributions to urban sustainability and food systems, it nonetheless faces significant challenges, including urban pressure on agricultural land, the economic viability of farms, and environmental pollution, among other concerns.

Buch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - The world is experiencing a widespread and accelerated geodigitalization. Everything that can be located on Earth now seems to be transcribed into digital data. This data has become pervasive across all technical systems. Spatial data is at the heart of territorial governance, social interactions and cultural practices. It is transforming knowledge and contributing to the emergence of new professions.
