Download or read book Fusing with Europe written by Lee Miles and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-09-18 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Informed by his profound knowledge of contemporary political affairs and the current debate on European integration in Sweden, Lee Miles investigates Sweden's experiences of being a full member of the European Union since 1995. Widely regarded as one of the leading authorities on Scandinavian relations with the European Union (EU), the author proposes a micro fusion perspective offering an insightful new conceptual framework through which to understand Swedish views on European integration and the influences on national EU policy. The volume also includes a Foreword by Wolfgang Wessels, Jean Monnet Professor and the founder of the fusion theory.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'The text provides an interesting history of previous and anticipated accomplishments, ending with a chapter on the relationship of fusion power to nuclear weaponry. They conclude on an optimistic note, well worth being understood by the general public.'CHOICEThe gap between the state of fusion energy research and public understanding is vast. In an entertaining and engaging narrative, this popular science book gives readers the basic tools to understand how fusion works, its potential, and contemporary research problems.Written by two young researchers in the field, The Future of Fusion Energy explains how physical laws and the Earth's energy resources motivate the current fusion program — a program that is approaching a critical point. The world's largest science project and biggest ever fusion reactor, ITER, is nearing completion. Its success could trigger a worldwide race to build a power plant, but failure could delay fusion by decades. To these ends, this book details how ITER's results could be used to design an economically competitive power plant as well as some of the many alternative fusion concepts.

Download or read book 50 Years of the European Treaties written by Michael Dougan and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2009-02-06 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essays which appear in this work are based on the papers presented at a two-day conference held in Liverpool in July 2007 to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the signing of the Treaty of Rome establishing the EEC. The collection reflects critically upon some of the EU's historic characteristics and speculates imaginatively on some of the diverse challenges facing the Union in the future. Contributions from both established and emerging scholars of EU law and policy are united by two main themes: the paradox of the resilient yet unstable basis of the Union's constitutional fundamentals, and the ever-contested balance between the EU's core economic mission and its broader social values and aspirations. For any student, scholar or practitioner interested in the dynamic nature of the constitutional relationship between the Union and its Member States, and in the complex tensions underpinning the EU's substantive policies, these essays will be essential reading.
Download or read book Divertor Development for a Future Fusion Power Plant written by Prachai Norajitra and published by KIT Scientific Publishing. This book was released on 2014-09 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nuclear fusion is considered as a future source of sustainable energy supply. Since the H-mode discovery in ASDEX experiment "Divertor I" in 1982, the divertor has been an integral part of all modern tokamaks and stellarators. The major goal of this thesis is to develop a feasible divertor design for a fusion power plant to be built after ITER. The thesis describes the approach in the conceptual development of a helium-cooled divertor and the methods of verification and validation of the design.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book summarizes the results of an international research project; the first Europe-wide Delphi study on future developments in the energy sector (EurEnDel). Nearly 700 energy experts from 48 countries participated in this two-round, web-based Delphi exercise. With a time horizon of 2030, this expert survey not only provides a useful perspective on long-term developments of energy technologies, but also evaluates these technologies against different sets of social values or "visions".

Download or read book Europe s Experiment in Fusion written by E. N. Shaw and published by North Holland. This book was released on 1990 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: JET is the joint European project to build and operate a large thermonuclear fusion device at a site in Oxfordshire, England. The largest tokamak ever built, JET is unique amongst contemporary experiments. Its subsequent, and continuing, technical success is the result of a dynamic involvement of all the major fusion laboratories of western Europe. The project is a major step in the unification of the European Fusion Programme and an outstanding example of community spirit within Europe. Europe's Experiment in Fusion'' is comprehensively written and traces the background leading up to the JET project. The author details the practical setting-up of the operation, from technical and financial aspects through to the problems encountered in any such joint European effort. The final design decisions are summarised and the programmes of construction and operation fully described. Extensive colour illustrations are provided and the book concludes with the inauguration of the device by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Humans do not live by bread alone. Physically we are puny creatures with limited prowess, but with unlimited dreams. We see a mountain and want to move it to carve out a path for ourselves. We see a river and want to tame it so that it irrigates our fields. We see a star and want to fly to its planets to secure a future for our progeny. For all this, we need a genie who will do our bidding at a flip of our fingers. Energy is such a genie. Modern humans need energy and lots of it to live a life of comfort. In fact, the quality of life in different regions of the world can be directly correlated with the per capita use of energy [1.1–1.5]. In this regard, the human development index (HDI) of various countries based on various reports by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) [1.6] (Fig. 1.1), which is a parameter measuring the quality of life in a given part of the world, is directly determined by the amount of per capita electricity consumption. Most of the developing world (~5 billion people) is crawling up the UN curve of HDI versus per capita electricity consumption, from abysmally low values of today towards the average of the whole world and eventually towards the average of the developed world. This translates into a massive energy hunger for the globe as a whole. It has been estimated that by the year 2050, the global electricity demand will go up by a factor of up to 3 in a high growth scenario [1.7–1.9]. The requirements beyond 2050 go up even higher.
