Cold Plasma in Nano-Matter Synthesis: Basic Principles and Practices

by A. Subrahmanyam

This book describes the basic principles and techniques of cold plasma to synthesize nanomaterials, emphasizing the fundamentals. Nanotechnology has matured enough to make inroads into the industry. “Quantum size effects” is the basis of the exotic properties of nanomaterials. The shapes and the size distribution dictate the properties of the nano-matter. The demands of the synthesis technique are to produce nano-matter with uniform size, repeatable shapes, uniform size distribution, stability of the nanostructures (reaching thermodynamic equilibrium), reproducibility of the particle sizes, and reliability of the process. These demands can be met when the synthesis technique has precise control over the process parameters. Cold plasma techniques possess all the requirements of the needs of nanomaterial synthesis. The cold plasma, an evolving field, has been established to be the most powerful tool not only for micro-electronics (both in the deposition and etching) but in many areas like health care, medicine, agriculture, food processing, etc. The book’s primary emphasis is to explain the basic principles and concepts of cold plasma in nanomaterial synthesis. The target audience is undergraduate and graduate students learning nanomaterial synthesis and plasma technology. It is hoped that this book also is a good source of reference for practicing scientists and engineers involved in synthesizing nanomaterials and nanostructures in the industry.

Global Citizenship Education in der Lehrer*innenbildung: Potenzial und Chancen für Demokratiepädagogik in der Phase des Berufseinstiegs (Citizenship. Studien zur Politischen Bildung)

by Ursula Maurič

Lehrpersonen stehen heute mehr denn je unter enormen Druck, mit und in ihrem Unterricht auf gesellschaftliche Entwicklungen zu reagieren. Aus dem Blick gerät dabei oft, dass es in der pädagogischen Arbeit vielmehr darum gehen muss, Alternativen zu einer bestehenden Ordnung von Ungleichheit, Ungerechtigkeit und Ausgrenzung ins Leben zu bringen, die sich in Bildungssystemen und letztlich im schulischen Alltag widerspiegeln. Als einen dafür möglichen Orientierungsrahmen in einer westlichen urbanen Migrationsgesellschaft und unter den Einflüssen von Globalisierung beschreibt Ursula Maurič eine kritische und inklusive Global Citizenship Education (GCE). Diese Interpretation von GCE beruft sich auf Konzepte einer kritischen Pädagogik und deren Fortführung in einer kritischen, postkolonialen GCE. Die Autorin stellt damit einen deutlichen Bezug zu einer kritischen politischen Bildung und besonders zu Demokratiepädagogik her. Letztlich aber geht Ursula Maurič der Frage nach, auf welche Weise Angebote der Lehrer*innenbildung zu einer kritischen und inklusiven GCE dringend notwendige Transformationsprozesse schulischer Bildung initiieren und mitgestalten können. Und sie verweist auf das hohe Potenzial, das die für Professionalisierung von Lehrpersonen besonders sensible Phase des Berufseinstiegs – gemeint sind die ersten Jahre im Beruf – in sich trägt.

The Shapes of Ideas: Chinese Philosophy in Cultural Relics

by Xi Zhang

The book combines Chinese philosophy and historical knowledge and delivers the core ideas of Chinese philosophy from 72 elaborately selected pieces of cultural relics in 18 topics. Based on the structure of “Cosmology-Ontology-Theory of Mind-Nature” for ancient Chinese philosophy, the author probes the new achievements in recent years, and portrays the Chinese world of thought for its vivid transformation from pre-philosophical period to early modern period, from elitism taste to popularized orientation. By narrating the nature of being, the author brings the thought essence of ancient Chinese philosophy to the readers, meanwhile mentions the society and history, and therefore sketches the interaction among the three objects. The book elucidates the wisdom of Chinese philosophy contained in cultural relics and reveals the thought and exploration of ancient Chinese sages to the secrets of human nature.

Intentional Stance Towards Humanoid Robots: Lessons Learned from Studies in Human-Robot Interaction

by Agnieszka Wykowska

With the reinassance of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and AI-empowered technologies, such as robots, we are all asking ourselves the question: What role will these new technologies play in our lives and in our society? On the one hand, we are excited about the new opportunities that AI and robots bring. On the other hand, there are understandable fears: What if the AI becomes too powerful? What if the robots become too human-like? This book is centered around a theoretical framework of the Intentional Stance, initially proposed by Daniel Dennett, and addresses the timely question: How do we, humans, approach robots? Do we see them as intentional agents that can potentially become our social companions? Or do we rather approach them as tools, man-made artifacts? What does it take for a robot to make an impression that it is an intentional/social agent? Is it its appearance? Its behaviour? Or, perhaps (and quite likely), the way it interacts with the human? These questions are addressed across various chapters of book, each of which is then complemented by an inspiring conversation with one of the prominent academics and scholars: Daniel Dennett (Philosophy) – the originator of the concept of the Intentional Stance; Hiroshi Ishiguro (Robotics) – the creator of androids, David Gunkel (Robot-Ethics), Bertram Malle (Cognitive Science), Antonio Sgorbissa (Culturally-competent Social Robotics), Bill Vorn (Robotic Art). The book discusses also some important ethical considerations to be made, and risks to be aware of. Do we actually want to create robots that are treated as intentional agents? What if the line between the human/robot categories becomes blurred? As intentional agents, should robots become also moral agents and legal persons in our societal and legal systems?

Der Beitrag der Psychologie zur nachhaltigen Entwicklung: Ein Kompendium (SDG - Forschung, Konzepte, Lösungsansätze zur Nachhaltigkeit)

by Antje Flade

Die von den Vereinten Nationen für eine nachhaltige Entwicklung formulierten siebzehn Themenfelder sind politische Zielsetzungen. Sie beruhen auf dem Leitbild der Nachhaltigkeit, dem drei Dimensionen zugrunde liegen: die Ökonomie, die Ökologie und die sozialen Belange. Die internationalen und nationalen Akteursebenen liefern ein Rahmenprogramm, das jedoch gefüllt und konkretisiert werden muss, um eine nachhaltige Entwicklung zu erreichen. Das geschieht vor allem auf der kommunalen und der individuellen Ebene. Damit der einzelne Mensch zur nachhaltigen Entwicklung beitragen kann, muss er dazu befähigt und motiviert werden. Die Psychologie verfügt über Theorien und Konzepte, um umweltbezogenes Handeln zu erklären und zu beeinflussen. Sie ist deshalb bei den Bemühungen, zu einer nachhaltigen Entwicklung zu gelangen, unentbehrlich.

Sustainable Waste Management Practices for the Mining Sector Through Recycling of Mining Waste (SpringerBriefs in Earth System Sciences)

by Suchismita Satapathy Meghana Mishra Manas R. Das

Mining waste management is an important issue for the mining industry since it entails the safe and responsible disposal of waste created during mining operations. This waste comprises tailing, waste rock, and other mining wastes that, if not adequately managed, can pose environmental and health problems. Effective waste management solutions are required to reduce the environmental impact of mining and preserve the long-term viability of mining operations. These initiatives include improving mining practices to reduce waste generation, establishing effective waste treatment and disposal systems, and participating in community outreach and education programme. In recent years, there has been a growing emphasis on the use of new mining waste management technologies and practices. The adoption of modern filtration systems, bio-remediation techniques, and the rehabilitation of abandoned mining sites are examples of these. Overall, good mining waste management is critical for guaranteeing the mining industry; long-term sustainability and protecting the environment and communities where mining operations take place. Sustainable waste management is the implementation of practices and strategies that aim to minimize aim the negative impact of mining waste while promoting resource efficiency and long-term economic viability it involves employing a thorough approach that considers the entire mining waste lifetime, from generation to disposal, and seeks to reduce waste generation, reuse, or recycle items, and appropriately dispose of any remaining rubbish. It attempts to extend the life of materials while reducing the waste volume that is incinerated or dumped in landfills. To lessen the detrimental environmental, economic, social and effects in consumption, a thorough approach to sustainable waste management must concentrate on the life cycle of a product. Mining wastes can be categorized into overburden, waste rock, tailings and mine water. During mineral extracted, beneficiated, and processed, mining wastes are produced. The first stage, known as extraction, which is the first layer sacking of minerals. Typically, blasting is used to do this, which produces a significant amount of garbage (soil, debris and other material). This is usually only concentrated within the periphery of a mine rental place and occasionally on public land, and is useless to the industry. The amount of waste produced increases with the size of the mine. Because they produce far more trash than underground mines, opencast mines are consequently more pollutant-intensive. Use of tailing waste of iron mines with clay for producing bricks can lead to consumption of large quantities of the waste materials and managing it in an environmentally friendly way. On the other hand, it can reduce consumption of top soil for making bricks and improve construction materials availability. Similarly, for preparation of ceramics and polymer composite, these wastes can be used, which will help in solving social, environmental problem.
