Rocket propulsion is at the centre of modern space exploration and has opened the doors for humanity to reach greater heights, deeper into space, and the more difficult profiles of missions. The rapid development of materials, combustion technologies, hybrid systems, and electric propulsion has led to the evolution of the field at an exceptional rate. An understanding of these systems is a prerequisite for the development of launch vehicles and spacecraft that are not only safe and efficient but also eco-friendly.Advanced Rocket Propulsion Systems: Foundations, Innovations, and Applications in Space Exploration gives a detailed account of all the conventional and emerging propulsion technologies. It discusses the basic principles, thermochemical processes, engine cycles, nozzle performance, hybrid and electric propulsion systems, and eco-friendly propellants. The book provides the readers with access to the latest global advancements in aerospace propulsion through simple and easy to comprehend explanations as well as revealing insights. Besides aerospace engineers, propulsion scientists, and space technology practitioners the book is for general readers who wish to acquire a firm understanding of contemporary rocket propulsion systems. Furthermore, it is an excellent resource for educational institutions and young engineers.Key Features:-Reviews latest trends in rocket propulsion.-Includes up-to-date research work.-The current development along with past and future perspectives are considered.-Comprehensive analysis of variety of propulsion techniques for deep space exploration.-Explores the technical challenges and possible solutions along with current development state of rocket propulsion.

This new book provides an insightful look at the varied and exciting uses and applications of Wi-Fi and the Internet of Things in agriculture. With internet-enabled communications becoming more widely available, farms and agricultural establishments can take advantage of these new technologies for a wide range of farm operations, such as crop management, farm vehicle tracking, livestock monitoring, storage monitoring, and more.The collected data from these devices can be stored in the cloud system or server and accessed by the farmers via the internet or mobile phones. This book shows the many benefits to farmers from applying IoT, including better utilizing information for monitoring crops, optimizing water use, planning effective fertilization strategies, and saving time and reducing the operation expenses.Topics include using IoT for vertical farming, IoT-based smart irrigation system, landslide susceptibility assessment, automated aeroponics systems, crop survival analysis, and more. The volume also considers the challenges of IoT in agriculture, such as the requirements of applications of wireless sensor networks, the threat of attacks and the detection of vulnerabilities in wireless sensor networks, and more.Internet of Things for Agriculture 4.0: Impact and Challenges provides a better understanding of the time- and resourcing-saving benefits of wireless sensors and remote monitoring devices in agriculture. The volume will be useful for those involved in agricultural operations as well as scientists and researchers, and faculty and students in agriculture and computer and information science engineering.
