Dieses Lehrbuch befasst sich leicht verständlich mit der Theorie der Kalman-Filterung. Die Autoren geben damit eine Einführung in Kalman-Filter und deren Anwendung für eingebettete Systeme. Zusätzlich wird anhand konkreter Praxisbeispiele der Kalman-Filterentwurf demonstriert ¿ Teilschritte werden im Buch ausführlich erläutert.Kalman-Filter sind die erste Wahl, um Störsignale auf den Sensorsignalen zu eliminieren. Dies ist von besonderer Bedeutung, da viele technische Systeme ihre prozessrelevanten Informationen über Sensoren gewinnen. Jeder Messwert eines Sensors weißt jedoch aufgrund verschiedener Ursachen einen Messfehler auf. Würde ein System nur auf Basis dieser ungenauen Sensorinformationen arbeiten, so wären viele Anwendungen, wie zum Beispiel ein Navigationssystem oder autonome arbeitende Systeme, nicht möglich.Das Buch ist geeignet für interessierte Bachelor- und Master-Studierende der Fachrichtungen Informatik, Maschinenbau, Elektrotechnik undMechatronik. Ebenso ist das Buch eine Hilfe für Ingenieure und Wissenschaftler, die ein Kalman-Filter z. B. für die Datenfusion oder die Schätzung unbekannter Größen in Echtzeitanwendungen einsetzen möchten.

This book focuses on the implications of digitalisation in the mobility service industry. Based on an analysis of more than 450 survey responses, it explores and assesses mobility in the age of digitalisation. The content covers both changes in the relationship between the company and its customers and a potential paradigm shift among leading companies. The findings suggest that a shift from traditional mobility management to a more customer-centred management perspective is both widely accepted and increasingly necessary. Nevertheless, the inclusion of services that are not primarily concerned with overcoming spatial distances is considered to be less attractive.Given its scope, the book will be of interest to researchers and professionals who are involved in digitalisation in the mobility service industry.

The working capital has an effect on the liquidity as well on the profitability of the firm. So, it is important to study the role of working capital in the profit generating process. If the firm desire to improve liquidity, increases the size of working capital of the firm. On the other hand, if a company is interested to obtain a greater risk for greater profits, it decreases the size of working capital in relation to its sales. The firm should trade off between its profitability and liquidity and decide the size of its working capital requirement. The objective of any firm is to maximize the profit. But, maintaining liquidity of the firm is an important objective also.

Over the past two decades, society has been witnessing how technological, political, and societal changes have been transforming individual and collective urban mobility. Driven both by newcomers and traditional players, by disruptive as well as incremental innovations, the main objective now is to enhance mobility and accessibility while, reducing vehicle ownership, congestion, road accidents, and pollution in cities.This transformation has been mainly enabled by the widespread adoption of internet-connected devices (e.g.: smartphones and tablets) and by the innovative business models, technologies, and use-cases that arose from this rapid digitalization, such as peer-to-peer, and two-sided markets providing several mobility schemes: car-sharing, car-pooling, bike sharing, free-floating (cars, bikes, electric scooter), ridesharing and ride hailing either for long distances as well as for urban and micro-mobility.The book presents ¿ in a holistic perspective ¿ howthis revolution is happening and what are the major cornerstones for the implementation of robomobility. It aims at answering several substantial issues, such as: What is robomobility and what does it imply for the different stakeholders of the public transport ecosystem? How do policy makers integrate this innovation and how ready the regulations are? How do citizens take part in this transformation? What is the level of user acceptance for this new type of mobility? What are its environmental impacts? What is the economic impact of deploying these shuttles in a local ecosystem?

“A well-rendered and -documented tale of exploitation in the developing world” (Kirkus Reviews) with deep resonance in the present dayIn a book Paul Farmer called “a gem of a social history linking two countries stuck in uncomfortable embrace for well over a century,” award-winning author and filmmaker Gregg Mitman tells a sweeping story of capitalism, racial exploitation, and environmental devastation, as Firestone transformed Liberia into America’s rubber empire.Scouring remote archives to unearth a story of promises unfulfilled for the vast numbers of Liberians who toiled on rubber plantations built on taken land, Mitman “peppers this history with a wealth of fascinating details and interesting characters” (Foreign Affairs), revealing a system of racial segregation and medical experimentation that reflected Jim Crow America—on African soil.Called “a brilliant, compelling read” by Princeton scholar Rob Nixon, Empire of Rubber, now available in paperback, provides a riveting narrative of ecology and disease, of commerce and science, and of racial politics and political maneuvering—the hidden story of a corporate empire whose tentacles reach into the present.

This book provides a comprehensive analysis of long-term changes in the car market of an emerging economy, with a focus on its spatial and temporal dimensions. Poland, the case study in question, represents a unique "laboratory of automobile revolution" during the late 20th and early 21st centuries. The volume brings to the fore several key aspects of the car market, such as car ownership, markets for new cars, import of second-hand cars, car use, electromobility and environmental impact. Many of them are the subject of a global debate in the context of achieving sustainable development goals. Others, meanwhile, point to the unique nature of transformations related to the car market in Poland. Altogether, consideration of these aspects enriches the international literature with new results and findings that will broaden the field of discussion on the car market onto the emerging economies, especially those of Central and Eastern Europe.The book combines the results of quantitative and qualitative research. The former is based on a big data set (ca. 40 million vehicles) and the latter on an in-depth social survey (questionnaire interviews with more than 4,000 drivers). The discussion of the geography of automobile revolution is linked to other social, economic and spatial phenomena and processes (e.g. urban sprawl or rural marginalisation; consumer decisions and the evolution of quality of life; and the development of individual entrepreneurship or environmental protection), as well as to transport, tax and customs policies. The analysis of the dynamics of change pays particular attention to the role of "critical junctures", such as the collapse of the communist system, EU membership, the world financial crisis (2007-2009) and first period of COVID-19 pandemic (2020-2021).The book will be of interest to scholars, students and practitioners dealing with transport research, geography of transportation, spatial economy, urban and regional planning and sustainability studies, and for car hobbyists.

"Gregory R. Piché's wide-ranging examination of these four major trials, their outcomes, and their lasting impact creates a spirited survey that will appeal to a diverse audience of historians, transportation buffs, legal beagles, and general-interest readers. It's thoroughly engrossing reading offering many insights and thought-provoking moments."-D. Donovan, Senior Reviewer, Midwest Book ReviewHenry Ford: oracular genius, people's hero, or narcissistic, autocratic bully? In Gregory R. Piche's new book, The Four Trials of Henry Ford, four landmark court cases reveal the dark side of Ford's legal clashes and the quirks of his character and personality that ushered his image in the public's imagination from mechanical savant and populist sage to isolated, imperious bigot.In recounting the Ford litigation, Piché examines Ford's parallel manipulation of public media to advance his own political and narcissistic agenda to become a public sage and an American President. It follows the initial rise of his reputation as a Progressive capitalist to its ultimate erosion as a mean-spirited bigot and contributor to the propaganda that fueled the Holocaust.
