IntechOpen and Knowledge Unlatched formed a partnership to support researchers working in engineering sciences by enabling an easier approach to publishing Open Access content. Using the Knowledge Unlatched crowdfunding model to raise the publishing costs through libraries around the world, Open Access Publishing Fee (OAPF) was not required from the authors.
\n\nInitially, the partnership supported engineering research, but it soon grew to include physical and life sciences, attracting more researchers to the advantages of Open Access publishing.

For the majority of the population, the term immediately transports us to the notion of an ancient age or ancient world (the Parthenon, Athens, and the Coliseum of Rome), which condenses in itself the Greco-Roman world. This reduces antiquity to antiquity that was structurally essential for the construction and emergence of the civilization called occidental.For others, because of their religious backgrounds, antiquity goes back in time and enlarges, in part, its space of action, allowing the emergence of Palestine as a primordial territory.But these two visions (old and supported by a scientific ignorance of the ancient geographies and chronologies) enclose the history in a limited time and space. As if there would never have been a world before that time. As if the civilization that we comfortably call ourselves as inheritors, the so-called "Occidental Civilization" was the first step in the history of man on earth.',isbn:"978-1-78984-561-7",printIsbn:"978-1-78984-560-0",pdfIsbn:"978-1-83968-408-1",doi:"10.5772/intechopen.82132",price:100,priceEur:109,priceUsd:129,slug:"antiquity-and-its-reception-modern-expressions-of-the-past",numberOfPages:86,isOpenForSubmission:!1,isInWos:null,isInBkci:!1,hash:"6f206aec2c58f403b9f503989afc75ac",bookSignature:"Helena Trindade Lopes, Isabel Gomes de Almeida and Maria de Fátima Rosa",publishedDate:"January 8th 2020",coverURL:"https://cdn.intechopen.com/books/images_new/8893.jpg",numberOfDownloads:5032,numberOfWosCitations:0,numberOfCrossrefCitations:0,numberOfCrossrefCitationsByBook:0,numberOfDimensionsCitations:0,numberOfDimensionsCitationsByBook:0,hasAltmetrics:1,numberOfTotalCitations:0,isAvailableForWebshopOrdering:!0,dateEndFirstStepPublish:"October 30th 2018",dateEndSecondStepPublish:"December 12th 2018",dateEndThirdStepPublish:"February 10th 2019",dateEndFourthStepPublish:"May 1st 2019",dateEndFifthStepPublish:"June 30th 2019",currentStepOfPublishingProcess:5,indexedIn:"1,2,3,4,5,6",editedByType:"Edited by",kuFlag:!1,featuredMarkup:null,editors:[{id:"202246",title:"Prof.",name:"Helena",middleName:null,surname:"Trindade Lopes",slug:"helena-trindade-lopes",fullName:"Helena Trindade Lopes",profilePictureURL:"https://mts.intechopen.com/storage/users/202246/images/system/202246.png",biography:'Maria Helena Trindade Lopes is Full Professor of Egyptology at the Faculty of Social Sciences and Humanities, Universidade Nova de Lisboa, Portugal, and Executive Coordinator of the Department of History.

One of these was without a doubt the aftermath of World War I and reached its apex in 1923 during the International Congress of Historical Sciences in Brussels. The tragic events that had shaken Europe had a deep impact on historiography. In the aftermath of World War II, this trend was reversed on account of a progressive change of perspective and sensibility. In the last decades the favored epithets applied to Late Antiquity were “transformation”, “change”, “transition” and “evolution”. The idea of a “long” Late Antiquity has eventually superseded the previous discourse on when and why the Roman Empire declined. Instead of a caesura, the historical continuum, the longue durée, is stressed. The continuities between Christian Rome, Sasanian Iran, and Islam are being explored.

The most interesting fact for this study is that, upon analysis, there seems to be interesting similarities between construction techniques used to assemble both ancient furniture and the ones used nowadays for the same purposes. To test the hypothesis, this paper is focused in three particular objects, the Solid Ebony Chair of Tutankhamun JE 62033, from KV62, and the Chairs of Hetepheres MFA 38.957 and JE 53263, from G7000X, -a much older chair- and analyses its structures, the materials and techniques used to assemble them, the similarities and dissimilarities, if any, between these two examples and to see if the is any correlations with them and their analog structures built three and a half millennia later, in our current days.",signatures:"André Patrício",downloadPdfUrl:"/chapter/pdf-download/66442",previewPdfUrl:"/chapter/pdf-preview/66442",authors:[{id:"285154",title:"Dr.",name:"Andre",surname:"Patricio",slug:"andre-patricio",fullName:"Andre Patricio"}],corrections:null},{id:"67232",title:"Enlightenment and Neoclassicism in La Clemenza di Tito of Mozart: An Historical-Legal Perspective",doi:"10.5772/intechopen.85867",slug:"enlightenment-and-neoclassicism-in-em-la-clemenza-di-tito-of-mozart-em-an-historical-legal-perspecti",totalDownloads:565,totalCrossrefCites:0,totalDimensionsCites:0,hasAltmetrics:0,abstract:"Opera seria had always chosen its settings and characters from classical antiquity drawing on Greek mythology, the histories of Livy and Suetonius, the Aeneid, Plutarch’s Lives, and Ovid’s Metamorphoses. In the second half of the eighteenth century, however, this world was given a new lease of life, separated from contemporary matters by an ever-decreasing division, across which it seemed almost possible for modern ideas to join hand with antiquity. In this context, the virtue of clemency is often represented on many levels in Mozart’s operas, and in particular in La Clemenza di Tito (1791). The main purpose of La Clemenza di Tito is the creation of an esthetic and neoclassical vision that introduces an enlightened interpretation of the virtue of clemency into the absolutistic context. Demonstrating the ability to forgive, and setting his own needs aside to accommodate his subjects, Tito is an enlightened ruler, who is both morally irreproachable and sensitive.

\r\n\tToday, scientists describe the Universe mainly in terms of two theories: (1) Einstein's general theory of relativity (GTR), which describes the force of gravity and the large-scale structure of the Universe, and (2) quantum mechanics (QM), which describes the physics of the very small. However, as emphasized by Stephen Hawking and others, these two theories are known to be inconsistent with each other, so one needs to accommodate the gravitational force within the domain of QM by developing a quantum theory of gravity that will apply to both the large and small scales of the Universe. In a recent book entitled "The God Equation: The Quest for a Theory of Everything, Michio Kaku discusses the history and the nature of such a theory, which made significant progress during the 20th century through the development of the Standard Model (SM) of particle physics that represented the best understanding of the subatomic world at that time. Unfortunately, the SM makes no mention of the gravitational force. However, by removing several dubious assumptions made during the development of the SM, an alternative model, the Generation Model (GM), was developed from 2002-to 2019. The GM proposes that the gravitational force is not a fundamental force, as believed for centuries, but is a universal attractive, very weak residual interaction of the strong nuclear force, acting between the three massive particles, the proton, the neutron, and the electron, which are the constituents of a body of ordinary matter: this residual force provides a quantum theory of gravity. The main aim of this book is to discuss both the flaws of the SM and the GTR and also the considerable successes of the GM.

Atomic spectroscopy includes the techniques of atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS), atomic emission spectroscopy (AES), atomic fluorescence spectroscopy (AFS), X-ray fluorescence (XRF), and inorganic mass spectroscopy (MS). AAS, AES, and AFS exploit interactions between UV-visible light and the valence electrons of free gaseous atoms. In XRF, high-energy charged particles collide with inner-shell electrons of atom, initiating transitions with eventual emission of X-ray photons. For inorganic MS, ionized analyte atoms are separated in a magnetic field according to their mass to charge (m/z) ratio [1].
Every element has a characteristic atomic structure, with a small, positively charged nucleus surrounded by a sufficient number of electrons necessary to maintain neutrality. Electrons settle into orbitals within an atom and one of the electrons can also jump from one energy level to the higher level by acquiring the necessitated energy (Figure 1). This energy is provided by colliding with other atoms, such as heating-AES, photons derived from light-AAS and AFS, or high-energy electrons-XRF. Possible transitions happen, when the required energy reaches to the difference between two energy states (ΔE). A neutral atom may exist at a low energy shell or ground state (E0), or at any of a group of excited states depending on how many electrons have been jumped to higher energy levels (E′’) although it is normal to think for the first transition. Each element has a unique energy level and the ΔEs associated with transitions between those levels.

where c is the speed of light and
and a specific transition, ΔE, is associated with a unique wavelength.
When light of a specific wavelength enters an analytical system, outer shell electrons of the corresponding atoms will be excited as energy is absorbed. As a result, the amount of light transmitted from the system to detector will be reduced, this is understood as AAS (Figure 1a).
Under appropriate circumstances, outer shell electrons of vaporized atoms may be excited by heating. As these electrons return to the more stable ground state, energy is lost. As Figure 1b shows, some of this energy is emitted as light, which can be measured with a detector, this is AES.
Some of the radiant energy absorbed by ground state atoms can be emitted as light as the atom returns to the ground state i.e. AFS (Figure 1c).
When high-energy photons strike to a massive particle, it can excite an inner shell electron of the atom. The forming inner orbital vacancy can be filled with an outer shell electron. The transition is created by an emission of an X-Ray photon. This process is
The energy of the emission i.e. the wavelength is characteristic of the atom (element) from which it originated while the intensity of the emission is related to concentration of the atoms in the sample [7].
The high temperature inductively coupled plasma has been successfully used as an effective ion source for a mass spectroscopy, the type of method of inductively coupled plasma-mass spectroscopy (ICP-MS) is routinely used for measurements of trace elements in clinical and biological samples [8, 9].
It follows from Eqs. 1–3 that the wavelengths of the absorbed or emitted light are unique to a given element.
Formation of the atomic vapor i.e. atomization is the major principle of emission, absorption, and fluorescence techniques. The most critical component of instruments used in atomic spectroscopy is the atomization sources and sample introduction devices with an associated spectrometer for wavelength selection and detection of light. Atomization involves the several key (the basic) steps: solvent removal, separation from anion and other elements of the matrix, and reduction of ions to the ground state atom. The design of an AFS instrument is similar to those for AAS and AES except that the light source and the detector are located at a right angle (Figure 2).

An ideal sample preparation should remove interfering components from the matrix and to adjust of analyte to facilitate the actual measurement. Methods for destruction of the organic matrix by simple heating or by acid digestion have been developed and are thoroughly approved. Microwave heating is used for this purpose, with the specifically designed a compatible
Liquid-liquid portioning has been widely applied for preconcentration procedure. Analyte atoms in a large volume of aqueous solution are complexed with a suitable agent and collected into a small volume of solvent. Vapor generation procedures permit the rapid introduction of 100% of the sample into the atomizer and are used for AAS, AES, AFS, and ICP-MS. Certain elements such as arsenic, selenium, and bismuth readily evolve gaseous hydrides and transferred by a flow of inert gas to an AES, and ICP-MS or to a heated silica tube positioned in the light path for AAS, AFS. The tube can be heated using the air-acetylene flame or an electric current. The obtained heat is enough to cause decomposition of the hydride and atomization of the analyte. Thus, there is no loss off analyte, which in all the atoms flow the light path with in few seconds and they are trapped within the silica tube that was retarded their dispersion. Any sample volume added to the reaction container, hydride generation AAS has detection limits a few nanograms of analyte. Mercury can quickly form a vapor in the ambient temperature, and this property is the basis for cold vapor generation. When a reducing agent is added to sample solution, Hg2+ converts to the elemental mercury. Agitation or bubbling of gas through the solution is used to enhance rapid vaporization of the atomic mercury and to improve the transfer of mercury to a flow through cell located in the light path. As with hydride generation, the detection limit is a few nanogram and some manufacturers have been developed common instrumentation to accomplish both procedures. Chromatographic or electrophoretic techniques have been also developed that are coupled directly to the atomic spectroscopic instrument to develop integrated analytical arrangements [13].
The detection limits are important parameters of analytical techniques. Typical detection limit ranges for the major atomic spectroscopy techniques are shown in Figure 5. AAS detection limits are generally better in all cases where the element can be atomized. Detection limits for refractory elements such as bor, titanium, and vanadium are better by ICP than by AAS. Nonmetals and the halogens can only be determined by ICP. Optimum detection of nonmetals such as sulfur, nitrogen, and halogens by ICP-ES can only be achieved when a vacuum monochromator is used. For mercury and those elements that form hydrides, the cold vapor mercury or hydride generation techniques offer exceptional detection limits [14].
Typical detection limit ranges for the major atomic spectroscopy techniques.
The analytical working range can be considered as the concentration range over which quantitative results can be obtained without recalibration for system. Selecting a technique with an analytical working range based on the expected analyte concentrations, minimizes the analysis times by allowing the samples with different analyte concentrations to be analyzed together. For example; ICP-MS, once considered only an ultratrace element technique, can now run concentration ranges from low parts-per-trillion (ppt) level up to high parts per million (ppm). A wide analytical working range also can reduce, for example handling requirements, minimizing potential errors. Figure 6 shows typical analytical working ranges with a single set of instrumental conditions [15].

Comparison of spectroscopic techniques performance.
Analytical methods of atomic spectroscopy have been used for elemental analysis identification, and quantitation in varieties of samples. Recently, most all of the spectroscopic techniques available are used in the analysis of metals and trace elements in samples of industrial and environmental origin.
Progress continues to develop in analytical spectroscopy as improvements are made to sensitivity, limits of detection, and availability. Recent development depends on instrumental adjustments and slight modifications to allow new types of measurements. Advancements in materials science have revealed demand for new methods of measurement using instruments already accessible, pushing the boundaries of what was previously available. For example, some new and interesting miniaturized plasma sources and a new distance of flight (DOF) mass spectrometer have been to the fore in developments. In addition, several novel methods have been developed, such as laser ablation molecular isotopic spectrometry (LAMIS) for isotope ratio analysis, and stand-off LIBS techniques such as “underwater LIBS” [16].
This chapter summarizes the key principles and application areas of atomic spectroscopy techniques. For example, a medical laboratory could determine the type and amount of heavy metals that could be present in patient’s serum or urine. Environmental scientists could monitor heavy metal contamination of water and soil. The pharmaceutical industry uses these techniques to determine metals and metalloids in drug products [17, 18].
Important criteria for selecting an analytical technique include detection limits, analytical working range, sample preparation, cost, ease of use, and the availability of proven methodology. Atomic spectroscopy techniques have provided a rapid, simple, accurate, and highly sensitive means of determining the concentrations of the elements.
In the future, it seems more likely that

The game theory is widely used to regulate the behavior of the users; therefore, the cooperation among the nodes can be achieved and the network performance can be improved when the game theory is utilized. On the other hand, the game theory is also adopted to control the media access control protocol or routing protocol; therefore, the energy exhaust owing to the data collision and long route can be reduced and the energy efficiency can be improved greatly.

We study the implications of various types of supermodularity for preferences over finite lattices. We prove that preferences on a finite lattice merely respecting the lattice order cannot disentangle these usual economic assumptions of supermodularity and infinite supermodularity. More precisely, the existence of a supermodular representation is equivalent to the existence of an infinitely supermodular representation. In addition, the strict increasingness of a complete preorder on a finite lattice is equivalent to the existence of a strictly increasing and infinitely supermodular representation.

In such smart deregulated market environment, cooperative game theory can play a vital role for analyzing various smart deregulated market problems. As an optimization tool, cooperative game theory is very useful in smart energy logistics and economy analysis problem. The economy associated with smart deregulated structure can be better optimized and allocated with the help of cooperative game theory. Initially, due to regulated structure, there is no cooperation between different entities of energy sector. But after new market structure, all the entities are free to take their own decisions as an independent entity. Transmission open access of energy logistics is also comes into the picture, as all the generators and demands have the same right to access the transmission system. In this market situation, multiple utilities are using the same energy logistic network. This situation can be formulated as a cooperative game in which generators and demands are represented by players.

Much of biochemistry is devoted to enzymes, proteins that catalyze chemical reactions, enzyme structures, mechanisms of action and their roles within cells. Biochemistry also studies small signaling molecules, coenzymes, inhibitors, vitamins, and hormones, which play roles in life processes. Biochemical experimentation, besides coopting classical chemistry methods, e.g., chromatography, adopted new techniques, e.g., X-ray diffraction, electron microscopy, NMR, radioisotopes, and developed sophisticated microbial genetic tools, e.g., auxotroph mutants and their revertants, fermentation, etc. More recently, biochemistry embraced the ‘big data’ omics systems. Initial biochemical studies have been exclusively analytic: dissecting, purifying, and examining individual components of a biological system; in the apt words of Efraim Racker (1913 –1991), “Don’t waste clean thinking on dirty enzymes.” Today, however, biochemistry is becoming more agglomerative and comprehensive, setting out to integrate and describe entirely particular biological systems. The ‘big data’ metabolomics can define the complement of small molecules, e.g., in a soil or biofilm sample; proteomics can distinguish all the comprising proteins, e.g., serum; metagenomics can identify all the genes in a complex environment, e.g., the bovine rumen.

He enrolled at today's Nelson Metropolitan University and graduated from this university with a BSc in Physics and Mathematics, B.Sc Honors in Physics, MSc in Semiconductor Physics, and a Ph.D. in Semiconductor Physics in 1987. After his studies, he chose an academic career and devoted his energy to the teaching of physics to first, second, and third-year students. After positions as a lecturer at the University of Port Elizabeth, he accepted a position as Associate Professor at the University of Pretoria, South Africa.\r\n\r\nIn 1992, he motivates the concept of 'television and computer-based education” as means to reach large student numbers with only the best of teaching expertise and publishes an article on the concept in the SA Journal of Higher Education of 1993 (and later in 2003). The University of Pretoria subsequently approved a series of test projects on the concept with outreach to Mamelodi and Eerste Rust in 1993. In 1994, the University established a 'Unit for Telematic Education ' as a support section for multiple faculties at the University of Pretoria. In subsequent years, the concept of 'telematic education” subsequently becomes well established in academic circles in South Africa, grew in popularity, and is adopted by many universities and colleges throughout South Africa as a medium of enhancing education and training, as a method to reaching out to far out communities, and as a means to enhance study from the home environment.\r\n\r\nProfessor Snyman in subsequent years pursued research in semiconductor physics, semiconductor devices, microelectronics, and optoelectronics.\r\n\r\nIn 2000 he joined the TUT as a full professor. Here served for a period as head of the Department of Electronic Engineering. Here he makes contributions to solar energy development, microwave and optoelectronic device development, silicon photonics, as well as contributions to new mobile telecommunication systems and network planning in SA.\r\n\r\nCurrently, he teaches electronics and telecommunications at the TUT to audiences ranging from first-year students to Ph.D. level.\r\n\r\nFor his research in the field of 'Silicon Photonics” since 1990, he has published (as author and co-author) about thirty internationally reviewed articles in scientific journals, contributed to more than forty international conferences, about 25 South African provisional patents (as inventor and co-inventor), 8 PCT international patent applications until now. Of these, two USA patents applications, two European Patents, two Korean patents, and ten SA patents have been granted. A further 4 USA patents, 5 European patents, 3 Korean patents, 3 Chinese patents, and 3 Japanese patents are currently under consideration.\r\n\r\nRecently he has also published an extensive scholarly chapter in an internet open access book on 'Integrating Microphotonic Systems and MOEMS into standard Silicon CMOS Integrated circuitry”.\r\n\r\nFurthermore, Professor Snyman recently steered a new initiative at the TUT by introducing a 'Laboratory for Innovative Electronic Systems ' at the Department of Electrical Engineering. The model of this laboratory or center is to primarily combine outputs as achieved by high-level research with lower-level system development and entrepreneurship in a technical university environment. Students are allocated to projects at different levels with PhDs and Master students allocated to the generation of new knowledge and new technologies, while students at the diploma and Baccalaureus level are allocated to electronic systems development with a direct and a near application for application in industry or the commercial and public sectors in South Africa.\r\n\r\nProfessor Snyman received the WIRSAM Award of 1983 and the WIRSAM Award in 1985 in South Africa for best research papers by a young scientist at two international conferences on electron microscopy in South Africa.
