Stem Cell Aging: Mechanisms, Consequences, Rejuvenation
In societies all around the globe, the population is aging. This fact will pose important challenges to healthcare and social systems in industrialized and emerging economies alike. It is therefore critical to devise strategies to extend the healthy years of life and thus limit the exponential increase in healthcare cost associated with growing old and frail. Understanding the aging process …

The State of Deformation in Earthlike Self-Gravitating Objects
This book presents an in-depth continuum mechanics analysis of the deformation due to self-gravitation in terrestrial objects, such as the inner planets, rocky moons and asteroids. Following a brief history of the problem, modern continuum mechanics tools are presented in order to derive the underlying field equations, both for solid and fluid material models. Various numerical solution techniq…

Model-Based Processing for Underwater Acoustic Arrays
This monograph presents a unified approach to model-based processing for underwater acoustic arrays. The use of physical models in passive array processing is not a new idea, but it has been used on a case-by-case basis, and as such, lacks any unifying structure. This work views all such processing methods as estimation procedures, which then can be unified by treating them all as a form of joi…
