Astrophysik seit 1900 - Jubil瓣um von Karl Schwarzschild (1873-1916) und Ejnar Hertzsprung (1873-1967). Astrophysics since 1900 - Jubilee of Karl Schwarzschild and Ejnar Hertzsprung.
Einleitend wird das Thema "Astrophysik seit 1900" umrissen und die Entwicklung vom Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts bis zur Mitte des 20. Jahrhunderts wird in acht Kapiteln dargestellt. Bis zum 19. Jahrhundert basierte die klassische astronomische Forschung haupts瓣chlich auf auf der Messung von Stern- und Planetenpositionen zur Erstellung von Sternkatalogen. Um 1860 vollzog sich in der Astronomie eine Revolution. Anstatt nur die Richtung des Sternenlichts zu untersuchen, wurden erstmals auch die Quantit瓣t und Qualit瓣t der Strahlung untersucht. Dies war der Beginn der modernen (beobachtenden) "Astrophysik"; dieser Begriff wurde von Johann Karl Friedrich Z繹llner (1834-1882). Die Astrophysiker begannen, die Eigenschaften der Himmelsk繹rper mit physikalischen und chemischen Methoden zu untersuchen. Die neuen Themen waren Photometrie, Astrofotografie, Spektroskopie / Spektralanalyse und Sonnenphysik. Karl Schwarzschild (1873-1916) war der Pionier der theoretischen Astrophysik um 1900. Er f羹hrte neue theoretische Themen wie Sonnenphysik, Theorie der Sternatmosph瓣ren, Sternstruktur und Einsteins Allgemeine Relativit瓣tstheorie. Ihm gelang der Durchbruch des Hertzsprung-Russell-Diagramms (HRD), das unabh瓣ngig voneinander von Ejnar Hertzsprung (1873-1967) 1905 und Henry Norris Russell (1877-1957) 1910/12 entwickelt wurde.

Aircraft icing
In 2018, approximately 4.3 billion passengers were carried by scheduled flights in the member states of the International Civil Aviation Organization. To satisfy the needs of day and night flight operations even in situations of inclement weather, aircraft icing is an inherent component of the certification of large transport aircraft. Ice detection and protection systems ensure flight safety and must be designed carefully. The reliable prediction of ice accretion is a mandatory intermediate step that involves many challenging problems of fluid mechanics that will be treated in this volume. After introducing the topic of aircraft icing with a brief historical overview of technological and scientific progress over the last century, current challenges from the perspective of fluid mechanics are outlined. In particular, the governing boundary conditions of the phenomenon are highlighted, accompanied by remarks on non-dimensional groups and scaling laws. Selected physical properties of water and ice are elucidated. Classic ice accretion is usually triggered by the impact of supercooled droplets on a surface. After analysing the solidification process of supercooled water, drop impact is studied on both dry and wetted substrates. Macroscopic phenomena of ice accretion are considered using a combined approach of experiments and computations. To carry out experimental investigations, the Braunschweig Icing Wind Tunnel was built. Together with the results of the icing code TAUICE, the gathered data are used to develop a deeper understanding of the process of glaze ice accretion, which involves a broad range of physical phenomena, including wetting, roughness formation, transitional flow and heat transfer.
Accelerating the Transition to a Hydrogen Economy
Accelerating the Transition to a Hydrogen Economy: Volume 3 Techno-Economic Feasibility provides a road map in the global economy from carbon to hydrogen. Within the context of the Industrial Revolution 4.0, the book brings together global expertise from academia and industry to accelerate the science, innovation, and practice of the hydrogen economy to address energy challenges and advance the UN Sustainable Development Goals. Divided into 2 parts, this third volume presents the techno-economic feasibility of the hydrogen economy and its policy-associated regulations from the perspective of technology, economics, and the environment. The book examines the development of the hydrogen economy within regional settings as a means for greater development, while presenting a vision for the implementation of the hydrogen economy in the long-term in each region. For each region, case studies are presented to highlight the current state of preparation and potential for a hydrogen economy. Written by an international list of experts from across the fields of academia, industry, and government, Accelerating the Transition to a Hydrogen Economy provides valuable perspectives for scientists, engineers, professionals, and policymakers from developing and developed economies on how to accelerate the transition to the hydrogen economy.

Statistical Relational Artificial Intelligence in Photovoltaic Power Uncertainty Analysis
Statistical Relational Artificial Intelligence in Photovoltaic Power Uncertainty Analysis addresses uncertainty issues in photovoltaic power generation while also supporting the collaborative enhancement of understanding and applying theory and methods through the integration of models, cases, and code. The book employs StaRAI to address uncertainty analysis and modeling issues at different time scales in photovoltaic power generation, including photovoltaic power prediction, probabilistic power flow, stochastic planning, and more. Chapters cover uncertainty of PV power generation from short to long time scales, including day-ahead scheduling (24 hours in advance), intraday scheduling (minute to hour rolling), and grid planning (15 years). Other sections study the impact of photovoltaic uncertainty on the power grid, offering the most classic cases of probabilistic load flow and PV stochastic planning.The theoretical content of this book is not only systematic but supplemented with concrete examples and MATLAB/Python codes. Its contents will be of interest to all those working on photovoltaic planning, power generation, power plants, and applications of AI, including researchers, advanced students, faculty engineers, R&D, and designers.
