Why do Technology Business Incubators (TBIs) emerge rapidly as an instrument of start-up promotion in emerging economies like India? In what forms? What role do they play in start-up promotion? What are their major achievements? These questions have been answered empirically in this book. Accordingly, this book explores the nature, structure and process of incubation resulting in start-up generation and in the process, R&D, contribution emergi...
The electric vehicle market has been gradually gaining prominence in the world due to the rise in pollution levels caused by traditional IC engine-based vehicles. The advantages of electric vehicles are multi-pronged in terms of cost, energy efficiency, and environmental impact. The running and maintenance cost are considerably less than traditional models. The harmful exhaust emissions are reduced, besides the greenhouse gas emissions, when t...

A new low-cost piezoelectric polymer Polyvinylidenefluoride (PVDF) Pressure sensor has been developed. A piezoelectric polyvinylideneflouride (PVDF) film is used in this sensor as the sensing element. The piezoelectric film generates electric potential when pressure is applied on it. The experimental setup for single layer PVDF is designed. The voltage developed across the sensor is measured using NI (National Instruments) data acquisition sys...

The study of Comet Halley in 1986 was a tremendous success for cometary science. In March of that year, six spacecrafts passed through Comet Halley as close as 600 km from the nucleus and made the in situ measurements of various kinds. These space missions to Comet Halley and that of the ICE spacecraft to Comet Giacobini-Zinner combined with studies, both ground-based and above the atmosphere, have increased our knowledge of cometary science i...
At the dawn of the radio age, the possibilities of the electromagnetic spectrum were limitless and there was enough spectrum for everyone to use. As radio frequency (RF) devices proliferated exponentially, governments stepped in to allocate spectrum based on fairness and fiscal capacity of the requested user. As equipment has become more capable of using the spectrum more efficiently, regulations and operating procedures have not evolved. This...
