Digital twins in industrial production and smart manufacturing: an understanding of principles, enhancers, and obstacles.
Hoboken, New Jersey: Wiley.
"While production and industrial processes become increasingly digital and the Internet of Things (IoT) becomes more prevalent, the digital twin is now within reach. Digital twins are designed to resemble diverse frameworks that interact with their surroundings in a variety of ways and for which it is difficult to forecast consequences over the product's whole lifecycle. Twin Engineering assists development teams in adjusting manufacturing operations to accomplish desired improvements in addition to assisting them in understanding the effects of any prospective modifications in production processes on operational outputs. As a result, producers can enhance processes and lower the total cost of engineering. Manufacturers can save time and money by constructing, deploying, and assessing factory production systems using digital twins that reflect the products and production systems."--

Semiconductor physics: principles, theory and nanoscale.
Oxford: Oxford University Press (Electroscience series, volume 3).
"This text brings together traditional solid-state approaches from the 20th century with developments of the early part of the 21st century, to reach an understanding of semiconductor physics in its multifaceted forms. It reveals how an understanding of what happens within the material can lead to insights into what happens in its use"

Quantum physics of semiconductor materials and devices.
Oxford New York, NY: Oxford University Press (Oxford scholarship online).
"”Quantum Phenomena do not occur in a Hilbert space. They occur in a laboratory”. - Asher Peres
Semiconductor physics is a laboratory to learn and discover the concepts of quantum mechanics and thermodynamics, condensed matter physics, and materials science, and the payoffs are almost immediate in the form of useful semiconductor devices. Debdeep Jena has had the opportunity to work on both sides of the fence - on the fundamental materials science and quantum physics of semiconductors, and in their applications in semiconductor electronic and photonic devices. In Quantum Physics of Semiconductors and Nanostructures, Jena uses this experience to make each topic as tangible and accessible as possible to students at all levels."

Essentials of semiconductor device physics.
Hoboken, NJ Chichester, UK: Wiley.
"The subject of the book is the physics of semiconductors, an important topic in engineering and physics, which forms the background for electronic and optoelectronic devices, including solar cells. This text aims to provide students and teachers with a concise text that focuses on semiconductors and covers the necessary background in statistical physics. This text introduces the key pre-requisite knowledge in a simple, clear, and friendly manner; and distills the key concepts of semiconductors to their essentials, enabling students to master this key subject in physics, materials and engineering, and is suitable for a course of approximately 30 hours. The subject matter treated in this book is directly connected to the physics of solar cells, which has become a topic of intense interest in the last decade. Thus, all scientists studying and researching photovoltaics in general, and solar cells in particular, will benefit from the clear and intuitive explanations found in this book"--

Théorie BCS et ses développements.
Les Ulis Paris: EDP sciences CNRS éditions (Supraconductivité, tome 1).
"This exciting new textbook introduces the concepts and tools essential for upper-level undergraduate study in water resources and hydraulics. Tailored specifically to fit the length of a typical one-semester course, it will prove a valuable resource to students in civil engineering, water resources engineering, and environmental engineering. It will also serve as a reference textbook for researchers, practicing water engineers, consultants, and managers. The book facilitates students' understanding of both hydrologic analysis and hydraulic design. Example problems are carefully selected and solved clearly in a step-by-step manner, allowing students to follow along and gain mastery of relevant principles and concepts. These examples are comparable in terms of difficulty level and content with the end-of-chapter student exercises, so students will become well equipped to handle relevant problems on their own. Physical phenomena are visualized in engaging photos, annotated equations, graphical illustrations, flowcharts, videos, and tables"

The physics of neutrino interactions.
Cambridge: Cambridge University Press.
"This book discusses the fundamental concepts of neutrinos, their properties and interactions with matter. The text covers the field theory of neutrinos, necessary to understand the standard model (SM) of electroweak interactions. Applications of neutrino scattering processes from the nucleons and nuclei are discussed in detail. Nuclear-medium effects in quasielastic scattering, and inelastic and deep inelastic scattering are also covered in depth. A separate chapter on neutrinos in astrophysics highlights the applications of various neutrino processes in the understanding of the Universe and its evolution. The text will be useful for graduate students and academic researchers in the fields of particle physics and nuclear physics"

Les aléas géophysiques et climatiques.
Les Ulis: EDP sciences (ChronoSciences).
"On sait que le dérèglement climatique provoque des événements météorologiques d’une intensité sans précédent ; il est aussi corrélé à l’amplification des risques géologiques.
Les aléas géophysiques et climatiques sont ici abordés conjointement: l’auteur analyse les phénomènes géophysiques dangereux par le prisme du réchauffement climatique, offrant une nouvelle perspective sur les tempêtes, inondations, tremblements de terre et éruptions volcaniques. Des études de cas permettent d’illustrer son propos avec des exemples concrets."
