This paper describes the state and future trends of the conventional vehicles as well as advanced vehicles. In the 21st century, owing to social demands for low emissions, low energy consumption and oil-alternative resources, it seems that the keen competition for the advanced vehicles such as alternative fuel vehicles, hybrid electric vehicles, electric vehicles and fuel cell vehicles (FCVs) has been intensified. Above all, hybrid technologies will perform an important role because they can be combined with not only internal combustion engines but also FCVs.

The term light source is used to describe the collection of photon-generating devices. This chapter examines photon light sources and focuses on synchrotron radiation sources, free-electron lasers (FELs), and selected photon-generating approaches including Compton backscatter, laser ion acceleration
Fusion energy offers the potential for cheap, clean, and abundant energy. It also offers a number of significant advantages when compared with fission technology. In particular, fusion facilities do not suffer from many of the issues associated with fission reactors, including reactor safety, nuclea
Several new and advanced power-generating systems are presently being developed, e.g., fuel cells, advanced heat pumps, high-performance gas turbines. An analysis of these systems is presented and is based on projections of comparative studies and relevant trends. For advanced systems, a trade-off b
