Clean Numerical Simulation

Clean Numerical Simulation

This book describes the basic principles of Clean Numerical Simulation (CNS) proposed by the author in 2009 as well as several of its applications. Unlike conventional algorithms CNS gives in a sufficiently long interval of time a convergent chaotic trajectory whose numerical noise is much lower than the true physical solution so that one can gain accurately. Thus CNS provides for the first time an ability to check statistics stability of chaos leading to a completely new concept of ultra-chaos which has both trajectory instability and statistics instability and thus is of a higher disorder. Notably it is impossible to repeat experimental results of ultra-chaos even in the statistical sense. However the reproducibility of physical experiments forms a cornerstone for modern science. Thus ultra-chaos reveals an incompleteness of the modern science paradigm. In addition it also reveals statistics stability as a precondition for use of conventional algorithms including direct numerical simulation (DNS). In Clean Numerical Simulation several conjectures and open problems are proposed including a modified fourth Clay millennium problem. Indeed CNS opens the door for us to enter the clean numerical world of chaos and turbulence.

The Charnoly Body A Novel Biomarker of Mitochondrial Bioenergetics

The Charnoly Body A Novel Biomarker of Mitochondrial Bioenergetics

Diversified physicochemical injuries trigger Charnoly body (CB) formation as pleomorphic electron-dense multi-lamellar stacks of nonfunctional mitochondrial membranes in the most vulnerable cell. Free radicals induce downregulation of mitochondrial DNA microRNA AgNOR and epigenetics to trigger CB molecular pathogenesis. CB is eliminated by energy (ATP)-driven lysosome-dependent charnolophagy as a basic molecular mechanism of intracellular detoxification to prevent acute and chronic diseases. Accumulation of CB at the junction of axon hillock and charnolosome (CS) at the synapses causes cognitive impairments; whereas nonspecific induction of CB causes GIT stress myelosuppression alopecia neurotoxicity cardiotoxicity and infertility in multidrug-resistant malignancies. Hence stem cell-specific CB charnolophagy and CS agonists/antagonists are introduced as novel charnolopharmacotherapeutics for the successful treatment of cardiovascular diseases neurodegenerative diseases infectious diseases drug addiction and cancer. Nanoparticles to improve drug delivery CS exocytosis and disease-specific spatiotemporal charnolosomics employing correlative and combinatorial bioinformatics boost mitochondrial bioenergetics through balanced diet exercise and antioxidants. The book will be of interest to medical scientists and practitioners. | The Charnoly Body A Novel Biomarker of Mitochondrial Bioenergetics

Innovation and Global Competitiveness Case of India's Manufacturing Sector

Innovation and Global Competitiveness Case of India's Manufacturing Sector

In the post-liberalization period India has slowly but steadily tried to foster innovation to improve competitive efficiency of Indian manufacturing and thus boost global competitiveness of the industrial sector. Foreign direct investment was looked upon as a major source of technology paradigm shift; in recent times industrial firms have been investing overseas even in countries to which they used to export based on their technological capabilities. Firms in Indian manufacturing industries have also attempted to bring about technological upgrades through imports of design and drawings (disembodied technology) against lump sum royalty and technical knowhow fees and imports of capital machinery (embodied technology) where the technology is embodied in the capital good itself. This volume comprises empirical contributions on this emerging phenomenon on a range of issues including the role of R&D; mergers acquisitions and technological efforts; technological determinants of competitive advantages; the role of small and medium enterprises and regional patterns; technological efforts and global operations; and the role of industrial clusters in promoting innovation and competitiveness. This book was originally published as a special issue of Innovation and Development. | Innovation and Global Competitiveness Case of India's Manufacturing Sector

China’s Climate-Energy Policy Domestic and International Impacts

China’s Climate-Energy Policy Domestic and International Impacts

China’s recent climate-energy policy an outcome of contemporary challenges has generated conflict of interest amongst major stakeholders. Coupled with a boost in demand for oil gas and coal as well as a rapid growth in wind and solar power it has not only affected domestic fossil fuel and renewable energy providers but has also provoked a resource boom affecting development pathways internationally. This book therefore seeks to examine the economic social and ecological effects associated with China’s climate-energy policy. Assessing how the policy has been and will be formulated and implemented it analyses the changing use of energy CO2 emissions and GDP as well as social and environmental impacts both domestically and internationally. It presents in-depth case studies on specific policies in China and on its resource exporting countries such as Indonesia Australia Myanmar and Mongolia. At the same time using quantitative data it provides detailed input-output and applied computable general equilibrium analyses. Arguing that China has actively advanced its climate-energy policy to become a leader of global climate governance it demonstrates that China ultimately relocates the cost of its climate-energy policy to resource exporting countries. This book will be of great interest to students and scholars of energy the environment and sustainability as well as Chinese Studies and economics. | China’s Climate-Energy Policy Domestic and International Impacts

Ethnicity and Development Addressing the Gaps in New Institutional Economics

Ethnicity and Development Addressing the Gaps in New Institutional Economics

Ethnicity and Development explores the impact of ethnic fragmentation on the success or failure of nations and uses case studies of Bangladesh and Pakistan to illustrate this. It analyzes the role of institutions in engendering economic and social progress and challenges the New Institutional Economics (NIE) narrative. The book argues that the NIE narrative has some gaps particularly that it is blind to ethnic fragmentation and therefore does not account for the construction of institutions that can build national cohesion in low- and low-middleincome countries (L/LMICs). It shows that L/LMICs have a different cultural context and that they need to first build national cohesion on a foundation of horizontal – across ethnic groups – and vertical – across classes – equity. The author’s analysis also examines other novel issues such as the boost that is provided by nations acquiring the right of self-determination. Other novelties are the distinction between prime causes (triggers) for economic development and approaches for economic development. More important for this book is the distinction between natural and constructed nations and the conceptual framework presented to analyze their performance. Finally the study examines the creation of national cohesion in ethnically diverse nations. Addressing a gap in the literature this book will be of interest to researchers in development economics political science and sociology and specialists in comparative politics/political theory with a focus on Area Studies. | Ethnicity and Development Addressing the Gaps in New Institutional Economics
