With enemies on all sides, who can Drake really trust? On the run after escaping from what was supposed to be the world's most secure juvenile facility (and blowing it up in the process), Will Drake knows it's only a matter of time before the sinister Alliance catches up with him. But Drake is in need of an alliance of his own - knowing who to trust is becoming increasingly difficult, and after having been exposed to the highly unstable (and potentially deadly) Crystal-X whilst fleeing from the Rig, it looks like time might be running out for him all together. His arm has started to mutate into an impenetrable black crystal, and although it gives him a superhuman-like ability to fight, it might also be causing him to lose his mind. Surrounded by enemies and desperate for help, Drake and his escapee comrades are forced to form an uneasy partnership with a mysterious group who also claim to have been exposed to Crystal-X. They say they know how to use its powers for good - but can Drake really keep running forever? And who should he trust more - his supposed friends, or the voices in his head...?

This open access book introduces the science of the new materials, soft crystals, by showing various interesting examples. Different from conventional hard and stable crystals, the soft crystals respond to gentle stimuli such as vapor exposure and rubbing but maintain their structural order. In this book, their exhibition of remarkable visual changes in their shape, color, and luminescence is described. Through the chapters, historical background, recent remarkable developments, and future prospects are described concisely. This book helps readers to understand a new concept of materials that have the characteristics of stimulus-sensitive soft matter and finely controlled crystals and to design novel materials with the characteristics. The English translation of this book from its Japanese language original manuscript was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service DeepL.com). The text has subsequently been revised further by a professional copy editor in order to refine the work stylistically.

Mechatronics is today fast developing as an interdisciplinary branch of engineering. This book offers a comprehensive coverage of the design and application of mechatronic systems. It discusses in detail the construction, operation, features and applications of various components of mechatronic systems. The text, profusely illustrated with diagrams, emphasizes the readers’ multidisciplinary skills and ability to design and maintain different mechatronic systems. Key Features : • Motivational assignments given at the end of each chapter and the Case Studies provided at the end of the book direct the readers to applications of mechatronics concepts in the real-world problems encountered in engineering practice. • Separate chapters are devoted to the advanced topics of Robotics and Microelectromechanical Systems (MEMS). • The text is supported by a fair number of photographs of mechatronic systems and their components. This student-friendly text is primarily intended for the students of undergraduate and diploma courses in mechanical, electronics, industrial, and mechatronics engineering. It will also be of immense use to practising engineers.

Semiconductors have made an enormous impact on 20th century science and technology. This is because components made from semiconductors have very favorable properties such as low energy consumption, compactness, and high reliability, and so they now dominate electronics and radio engineering. Semiconductors are indispensable for space exploration and where the requirements of small size, low weight and low energy consumption are especially stringent. The book uses quantum-mechanical concepts and band theory to present the theory of semiconductors in a comprehensible for. It also describes how basic semiconductor devices (e.g. diodes, transistors, and lasers) operate. The book was written for senior high-school students interested in physics.
