This book discusses current trends and potential applications of nanotechnology in dental materials. Dentistry is undergoing yet another change to benefit mankind via the discipline of nanodentistry. A variety of nanostructures such as nanorobots, nanospheres, nanofibers, nanorods, etc., have been studied for various uses in dentistry and medicine. Preventive dentistry has also utilized nanodentistry to develop nanomaterials for inclusion in a variety of oral health-care products. Methods to prevent and combat dental problems have been devised, discussed, and implemented since ancient times; however, there is a constant need for improved tools and techniques. This book is relevant academically for undergraduate and post-graduate dental students, dental practitioners, researchers, and faculties of dental universities, as this book explores the application of various nanobiomaterials in dentistry, discusses current research in dental nanomaterials and potential future areas of interest, and examines the use of nanotechnology in various fields of dentistry. Explores application of various nanobiomaterials to dentistry; Discusses current research in dental nanomaterials and potential future areas of interest; Examines the use of nanotechnology in several fields of dentistry. Dr. Ramesh S. Chaughule, Ex Scientist from Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, Mumbai, India, is an Adjunct Professor at Ramnarain Ruia College, Mumbai India, Research Advisor at Gogate Jogalekar College, Maharashtra, and a Fellow of Maharashtra Academy of Sciences. He is also the recipient of Indo-UK, Indo-USA, and Indo-Japan fellowships, and has more than 80 publications as papers and books in his field of research. He has also served on IAEA programs in Indonesia.

Prepared by the Standard Practice on Radar Rainfall Estimation Task Committee of the Environmental and Water Resources Institute of ASCERadar Rainfall Data Estimation and Use, MOP 139, provides a detailed look at the basic philosophy and principles for estimating and analyzing radar rainfall data and analyzing data. Radar-derived rainfall estimation is one of the most significant recent advances in hydrologic engineering and practice. Rain gauges provide point values of rainfall depth and intensity but are not cost effective in providing information about the spatial distribution of rainfall, whereas radar-derived rainfall data provides a density of measurements that are not obtainable by rain gauges alone. Combining these two sensor systems produces better rainfall estimates that more accurately characterize rainfall across a watershed. This Manual of Practice provides a framework for researchers and practicing engineers working in hydrologic engineering to develop radar rainfall data sets and analyze them according to their varied goals and resources. Topics include An introduction to and examples of radar rainfall estimation, Temporal and spatial characteristics of radar rainfall data, Methodology for radar rainfall data quality evaluation and improvement, Use of radar rainfall data in hydrologic modeling, Rainfall data augmentation and design of rainfall monitoring networks, and Examples of radar rainfall data analysis and data applications. MOP 139 will be a valuable resource for government agencies, a framework for engineering firms, practicing engineers, researchers, and students working in the hydrologic engineering field.
