    • English
    Comprehensive Gut Microbiota, Three Volume Set provides new insights into gut microbiota as a critical mediator of human health and well-being. Comprehensive chapters, split across three volumes, present trusted and authoritative sources of information for novel human gut microbiome and health research. The book focuses on the fascinating intestinal microbiome and its interaction with food, food bioactive components, nutrition and human health. Chapters address the core science in the microbiota field and draw links between the microbiome, food, nutrition and health interaction. The text reflects the current state of evidence available in the field of microbiota, its regulation at the individual and population level, and the importance of the microbiome to human health. Each section includes introductory chapters that present key concepts about the section objective. Later sections focus on the novel findings of the gut microbiome, food and nutrition science. Human studies and systematic literature reviews are also discussed throughout the work.

  • Model Predictive Control for Doubly-Fed Induction Generators and Three-Phase Power Converters

    • 1st Edition
    • Alfeu Sguarezi
    • English
    Model Predictive Control for Doubly-Fed Induction Generators and Three-Phase Power Converters describes the application of model predictive control techniques with modulator and finite control sets to squirrel cage induction motor and in doubly-fed induction generators using field orientation control techniques as both current control and direct power control. Sections discuss induction machines, their key modulation techniques, introduce the utility of model predictive control, review core concepts of vector control, direct torque control, and direct power control alongside novel approaches of MPC. Mathematical modeling of cited systems, MPC theory, their applications, MPC design and simulation in MATLAB are also considered in-depth. The work concludes by addressing implementation considerations, including generator operation under voltage sags or distorted voltage and inverters connected to the grid operating under distorted voltage. Experimental results are presented in full.
