Real Resumes for Engineering Jobs

The most important part of the book is the Real-Resumes section. Some of the individuals whose resumes and cover letters you see spent a lengthy career in an industry they loved. Then there are resumes and cover letters of people who wanted a change but who probably wanted to remain in their industry. Many of you will be especially interested by the resumes and cover letters of individuals who knew they definitely wanted a career change but had no idea what they wanted to do next. Other resumes and cover letters show individuals who knew they wanted to change fields and had a pretty good idea of what they wanted to do next. Every resume and cover letter in this book actually worked. And most of the resumes and cover letters have common features: most are one-page, most are in the chronological format, and most resumes are accompanied by a companion cover letter. In this section you will find helpful advice about job hunting. Step One begins with a discussion of why employers prefer the one-page, chronological resume. In Step Two you are introduced to the direct approach and to the proper format for a cover letter. In Step Three you learn the 14 main reasons why job hunters are not offered the jobs they want, and you learn the six key areas employers focus on when they interview you. Step Four gives nut sand bolts advice on how to handle the interview, send a follow-up letter after an interview, and negotiate your salary.

Practical Ship Hydrodynamics

This book is based largely on lectures for German students. The nucleus of the book was formed by lectures on ship seakeeping and ship manoeuvring, which I have taught for several years with Professor Heinrich S¨oding. I always felt that we should have a comprehensive textbook that would also cover resistance and propulsion, as ship seakeeping and manoeuvring are both interwoven strongly with the steady base flow. Many colleagues helped with providing material, allowing me to pick the best from their teaching approaches. A lot of material was written and compiled in a new way, inspired by these sources, the chapters on ship seakeeping and manoeuvring use extensive existing material. The first five chapters give an introduction to ship hydrodynamics, which is in my opinion suitable for teaching at a senior undergraduate level or even at a postgraduate level. It is thus also suitable for engineers working in industry. The book assumes that the reader has a solid knowledge of general fluid dynamics. In teaching, general fluid dynamics and specific ship hydrodynamics are often mixed but I believe that universities should first teach a course in general fluid dynamics which should be mandatory to most engineering students. There are many good textbooks on the market for this purpose. Naval architects should then concentrate on the particular aspects of their field and cover material more suited to their needs. This book is organized to support such a strategy in teaching.

Ship and Performance for Masters and Mates

This book tabulates general particulars of 39 ships designed, built and delivered in this Millennium. It also covers many ship types designed and built over the last 20 years. Discussed in detail are new inventions and suggestions for enhanced ship performance in the next decade. The main aim is to give an introduction and awareness to those interested in Ship Design and Ship Performance. It is written to underpin and support the more erudite books published on Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering by Elsevier Ltd. It will also bring together the works of Masters, Mates, Marine Engineers and Naval Architects engaged in day-to-day operation of ships at sea and in port. Over the last three decades, ships have greatly increased in size (e.g. Supertankers). They have also increased in service speed (e.g. Container ships). Groundings and collisions have become more common. Frequently this has been due to ship squat and Interaction effects. One only has to recall the incidents of ‘Herald of Free Enterprise’, and the ‘Sea Empress’.

Biofuels: Biotechnology, Chemistry, and Sustainable Development

As the first biofuel to emerge into mass production, (bio)ethanol is discussed in chapter 1, the historical sequence being traced briefly from prehistory to the late nineteenth century, the emergence of the petroleum-based automobile industry in the early twentieth century, the intermittent interest since 1900 in ethanol as a fuel, leading to the determined attempts to commercialize ethanol–gasoline blends in Brazil and in the United States after 1973. The narrative then dovetails with that in Handbook on Bioethanol: Production and Utilization, when cellulosic and lignocellulosic substrates are considered and when the controversy over calculated energy balances in the production processes for bioethanol, one that continued at least until 2006, is analyzed. Chapters 2, 3, and 4 then cover the biotechnology of ethanol before the economics of bioethanol production are discussed in detail in chapter 5, which considers the questions of minimizing the social and environmental damage that could result from devoting large areas of cultivatable land to producing feed stocks for future biofuels and the sustainability of such new agroindustries. A particular subset of the microbes used for fermentations and biotransformations is those capable of producing ethyl alcohol — ethanol, “alcohol,” the alcohol whose use has both aided and devastated human social and economic life at various times in the past nine millennia.

Practical Ship Design

A book or this sort would be a poor thing if it did not draw on many sources and I would acknowledge that some parts of it almost take the form of an anthology and would express my thanks to the authors of many technical papers from which either text or illustrations have been drawn. I have tried to obtain permission for all these quotations and think I have acknowledged the source in every case but ask forgiveness if any permissions have not been obtained or if any acknowledgements have been accidentally omitted. It would be very helpful if any reader spotting an error would inform the publishers so that a correction can be made should there be a later edition - one of the joys of word processing being the ease with which such changes can be made. I have also come to appreciate that although I can justifiably claim to have a particularly wide experience of ship design covering many ship types, my knowledge of specific subjects lacks the depth that an expert whose interest is limited to one or two subjects can be expected to have in his speciality. Reading and re-reading IMO and DTI rules, appropriate parts of LLoyds rules, books on naval architecture and many technical papers and magazines has helped considerably, but the simplification and drastic condensation of some very lengthy and complex rules to the precis form which is the essence of this book was not an easy task and it seemed quite likely that there might be some errors.

Piling Engineering

The design of piles and pile groups has advanced steadily in recent times with much of this work being carried out by engineers who specialize particularly in foundation engineering. Effective stress methods are being developed for individual pile designs while computer-based techniques for assessing the settlement behaviour of large and complex pile groups are finding increasing application. The construction of piles today is also carried out for the most part by specialist contractors who exercise considerable skill in adapting methods of working to enable sound piles to be formed even in the most forbidding ground conditions, although it should still be borne in mind that every technique used can encounter difficulties and unforeseen problems at times. The skill of a given contractor often depends on their particular experience and this is only gained over many years, perhaps using a range of methods. In modern piling practice site investigation has become an essential precursor to making sensible decisions both regarding pile design and the choice of appropriate construction methods, and is all the more important because of the wide range of methods and equipment now available. Financial savings made at the investigation stage are often followed by the unwelcome discovery of adverse conditions which can eventually impose an extra burden of cost far exceeding the earlier savings which may have been made.

Added Masses of Ship Structures

The purpose of this book to collect the main theoretical results on added masses and to describe some experimental methods of their determination; we hope that it can serve as a useful tool to engineers dealing with various structures moving in fluid. Besides marine engineering, this book can be used in machine engineering, aviation engineering and hydro technique studies. Masses that are added to a ship’s bulk will determine the inertial properties of that ship under motion. Computation of the effect of such added masses of various bodies has been the subject of many journal articles, as well as chapters in various textbooks and research monographs on theoretical and applied hydrodynamics. This book is part of that literature. The present volume is a revised translation of the second edition of the author’s book “Added masses of ship structures” published in 2007 in Russian by Morwest Publishers (St. Petersburg). The first Russian edition was published in 1986; in the second edition the author also reviewed results obtained in this field over the intervening 20 years.

Fundamentals of Engineering Thermodynamics

This book provides the tools needed by specialists working in all such fields. For non-specialists, the book provides background for making decisions about technology related to thermodynamics-on the job and as informed citizens. The sixth edition considers many of these new applications while retaining the basic organization and level of the previous editions. Several enhancements to improve student learning have been introduced. Included are new text elements and interior design features that help students to better understand and apply the subject matter. With this edition we continue our effective pedagogy. clear and concise presentations at a level appropriate for college sophomores and juniors, sound developments of the fundamentals. and state-of-the-art engineering applications. Thermodyamics became a formal area of study in the nineteenth century through consideration of the capacity of hot bodies 10 produce work. Throughout the twentieth century engineering applications of thermodynamics helped pave the way for Increased hum.an well being with advances in major areas such as transportation, power generation, and heating/cooling of buildings. In the twenty-first century, thermodynamics will continue to provide concepts and methods essential for addressing critical societal issues.

The Science and Ethics of Engineering the Human Germ Line

The other purpose of the plan is to encourage retention of a disciplined approach to analysis of new breakthroughs. We must not lose sight of the principles upon which we wish to guide our acceptance of new technologies and, at the same time, we need resist the urge to factor into logical analysis fundamental philosophical issues that are themselves impossible to resolve through logic or fact gathering. This is not to say that our fundamental concepts of right and wrong are not important for the process of judging new capabilities in the area of genetic engineering, but rather, to indicate that these concepts and principles, as we see them, must assume their proper role in the reasoning process. My third goal is to provide an appreciation. The lack of a holistic and comprehensive understanding of human genetic manipulation on the part of the public as well as groups of specialists has led to a disorganized and often misleading discussion of the issue. One major goal of this book is to demonstrate the importance of recognizing the interrelationship of these scientific and medical fields when evaluating the appropriateness of genetic modification.

Optimization in Food Engineering

The Contemporary Food Engineering series, consisting of edited books, attempts to address some of the recent developments in food engineering. Advances in classical unit operations in engineering applied to food manufacturing are covered as well as such topics as progress in the transport and storage of liquid and solid foods; heating, chilling, and freezing of foods; mass transfer in foods; chemical and biochemical aspects of food engineering and the use of kinetic analysis; dehydration, thermal processing, nonthermal processing, extrusion, liquid food concentration, membrane processes, and applications of membranes in food processing; shelf-life, electronic indicators in inventory management, and sustainable technologies in food processing; and packaging, cleaning, and sanitation. The books are aimed at professional food scientists, academics researching food engineering problems, and graduate level students. Food engineering is the multidisciplinary field of applied physical sciences combined with the knowledge of product properties. Food engineers provide the technological knowledge transfer essential to the cost-effective production and commercialization of food products and services. In particular, food engineers develop and design processes and equipment in order to convert raw agricultural materials and ingredients into safe, convenient, and nutritious consumer food products. However, food engineering topics are continuously undergoing changes to meet diverse consumer demands, and the subject is being rapidly developed to reflect market needs.

Insect Pathogens: Molecular Approaches and Techniques

This book is divided into four parts: (I) Identification and Diagnostics; (II) Evolutionary Relationships and Population Genetics; (III) Host–Pathogen Interactions; and (IV) Genomics and Genetic Engineering. Sixteen chapters have been written by leading researchers in the field which provide comprehensive and up-to-date information on each part. This book is especially timely as it provides current methods and approaches for diagnosis and identification of entomopathogens. It also summarizes molecular techniques applied for the study of population genetics and evolutionary relationships of entomopathogens themselves and in relation with their arthropod hosts. Moreover, it includes the latest information on methods used to unravel pathogen–host interactions and for the study of their genomes and strains improvement (GMOs). Like other natural enemies, insect pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, fungi, protozoa and nematodes, have demonstrated to be environmentally safe and economical alternatives for control of a wide range of arthropod pests. Because of their documented efficacy and the advantages they offer in comparison with chemical pesticides, interest in these organisms has increased exponentially over the past decades.

Genetics And Genetic Engineering: Information Plus Reference Series

Genetics and genetic engineering is a hotly debated topic in the United States today. Issues such as genetic testing to screen for disease susceptibility and the implications of test results; whether to permit cloning of human organs and the moral dilemma of ‘‘playing God’’; and the advisability of raising genetically modified crops are discussed in coffee shops and classrooms across the nation. These topics and more are covered in this volume. Genetics and Genetic Engineering consists of ten chapters and three appendixes. Genetics and Genetic Engineering is part of the Information Plus Reference Series. The purpose of each volume of the series is to present the latest facts on a topic of pressing concern in modern American life. These topics include today’s most controversial and most studied social issues: abortion, capital punishment, care of senior citizens, crime, the environment, health care, immigration, minorities, national security, social welfare, women, youth, and many more. Although written especially for the high school and undergraduate student, this series is an excellent resource for anyone in need of factual information on current affairs.

Genetics 101

This is the work of the population geneticist. Population geneticists are interested in gene flow, immigration and emigration, the effects of disruptions in populations and how these events influence the frequency of a trait in a given group of individuals. At the broadest level, evolutionary geneticists and genomicists examine how the sum of the genes in a species, also called the genome, changes over long periods of time. The past decade has seen a tremendous focus on this level of genetics as new technologies and computer applications have allowed the generation and study of large databases of genetic information. Genetics is the study of inheritance. It is a broad science that examines the molecular basis of inheritance at the cellular level, the transmission of traits from generation to generation, and the movement of genes within and between populations. As a science, genetics is both very young and very old. It has only been in the past 50 years that we have discovered the structure of the molecule that carries our genetic information from generation to generation. That molecule is of course deoxyribonucleic acid, or DNA. Yet despite the fact that we have only been studying DNA for a short period of time, the study of genetics now permeates all aspects of the scientific world and our lives.

Extreme Genetic Enginering: An Introduction to Synthetic Biology

Genetic engineering on steroids,” the social, environmental and bio-weapons threats of synthetic biology surpass the possible dangers and abuses of biotech. Synbio is inspired by the convergence of nanoscale biology, computing and engineering. Using a laptop computer, published
gene sequence information and mail-order synthetic DNA, just about anyone has the potential to construct genes or entire genomes from scratch (including those of lethal pathogens). Scientists predict that within 2-5 years it will be possible to synthesise any virus; the first de novo bacterium will make its debut in 2007; in 5-10 years simple bacterial genomes will be synthesised routinely and it will become no big deal to cobble together a designer genome, insert it into an empty bacterial cell and - voilà - give birth to a living, self-replicating organism. Other synthetic biologists
hope to reconfigure the genetic pathways of existing organisms to perform new functions – such
as manufacturing high-value drugs or chemicals.

Applications of Soft Computing: Updating the State of the Art

Due to its great flexibility in coping with ill-defined plants, fuzzy logic theory has found numerous successful applications in industrial engineering, e.g., pattern recognition 1, automatic control 2, and fault diagnosis 3. Generally, a fuzzy logic-based system with embedded linguistic knowledge maps an input (feature) vector to a scalar (conclusion) output 2. Most fuzzy systems deployed in practice are static. In other words, they lack the necessary internal dynamics, and can, thus, only implement nonlinear but non-dynamical input-output mappings. This disadvantage greatly hinders their wider employment in such areas as dynamical system modeling, prediction, signal filtering, and control. Inspired by the idea of utilizing linguistic information, we have proposed two kinds of dynamical fuzzy systems, Linguistic Information Feed-Back-based Dynamical Fuzzy System (LIFBDFS) 4, and Linguistic Information Feed-Forward based Dynamical Fuzzy System (LIFFDFS) 5. Instead of crisp system output, conclusion fuzzy membership function is fed back and forward locally with adjustable parameters in the LIFBDFS and LIFFDFS, respectively.

An Introduction to Genetic Engineering, 3rd Edition

This should help the reader cope with more advanced information about the subject, as a sound grasp of the basic principles is an important part of any introduction to genetic engineering. I have again been gratified by the many positive comments about the second edition, and I hope that this new edition continues to serve a useful purpose as part of the introductory literature on this fascinating subject. As I found when preparing the second edition of this text, advances in genetics continue to be made at an ever increasing rate, which presents something of a dilemma when writing an introductory text on the subject. In the years since the second edition was published, many new applications of gene manipulation technology have been developed, covering an increasingly diverse range of disciplines and applications. The temptation in preparing this third edition, as was the case for its predecessor, was to concentrate on the applications and ignore the fundamental principles of the technology.

The Quantum Mechanics Solver: How to Apply Quantum Theory to Modern Physics

Teaching quantum mechanics relies mostly on theoretical courses, which are illustrated by simple exercises often of a mathematical character. Reducing quantum physics to this type of problem is somewhat frustrating since very few, if any, experimental quantities are available to compare the results with. For a long time, however, from the 1950s to the 1970s, the only alternative to these basic exercises seemed to be restricted to questions originating from atomic and nuclear physics, which were transformed into exactly soluble problems and related to known higher transcendental functions. This book consists of a series of problems concerning present-day experimental or theoretical questions on quantum mechanics. All of these problems are based on actual physical examples, even if sometimes the mathematical structure of the models under consideration is simplified intentionally in order to get hold of the physics more rapidly. Quantum mechanics is an endless source of new questions and fascinating observations. Examples can be found in fundamental physics and in applied physics, in mathematical questions as well as in the currently popular debates on the interpretation of quantum mechanics and its philosophical implications.

Numerical Methods in Engineering with Python

The material consists of the usual topics covered in an engineering course on numerical methods: solution of equations, interpolation and data fitting, numerical differentiation and integration, solution of ordinary differential equations and eigenvalue problems. The choice of methods within each topic is tilted toward relevance to engineering problems. For example, there is an extensive discussion of symmetric sparsely populated coefficient matrices in the solution of simultaneous equations. In the same vein, the solution of eigenvalue problems concentrates on methods that efficiently extract specific eigenvalues from banded matrices. This book is targeted primarily toward engineers and engineering students of advanced standing (sophomores, seniors and graduate students). Familiarity with a computer language is required; knowledge of basic engineering mechanics is useful, but not essential. The text attempts to place emphasis on numerical methods, not programming. Most engineers are not programmers, but problem solvers.

SAGE Sourcebook of Modern Biomedical Devices 4

The next major area in medical imaging is PET/CT. Positron emission tomography (PET) and Computerized Tomography (CT) are both standard imaging tools that allow physicians to pinpoint the location of cancer within the body before making treatment recommendations. The highly sensitive PET scan detects the metabolic signal of actively growing cancer cells in the body and the CT scan provides a detailed picture of the internal anatomy that reveals the location, size, and shape of abnormal cancerous growths. Alone, each imaging test has particular benefits and limitations, but when the results of PET and CT scans are “fused” together, the combined image provides complete information on the cancer location and metabolism. The next advance in medical imaging that should be mentioned here is represented by “full body scans.” Time was when our best medical minds thought peptic ulcers were a “lifestyle disease,” the result of too much stress, too much spicy food, or some combination thereof. For treatment, doctorly prescriptions included time off from work, chewing your food thoroughly, popping antacids, and drinking quantities of milk. In severe cases, patients went under the knife to have their stomach linings removed.

Numerical Methods for Scientists and Engineers: First Edition: H. M. Antia

This book covers a wide range of topics pertaining to numerical computation. However, readers may find a few their favorite topics missing. In fact, the topics of each of the chapters have themselves been the subjects of full-fledged books. This book has evolved out of lecture courses delivered to Research Scholars at the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research during the period 1978-88. It is intended for both reasonable background in mathematics as well as computer programming. There is a wide difference between numerical methods for computers and those for desk calculators. The enormous increase in the speed enables us to solve much larger problems on computers and frequently such problems are more sensitive to various errors during calculations.

Biosolids Engineering by Michael McFarland

The primary objective of the CWA is to restore and maintain the chemical, physical, and biological integrity of the nation’s waters. To prevent contamination and deterioration of water quality, wastewater from industrial, commercial, and residential activities is treated at wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) before it is discharged to surface water or groundwater. At present, there are more than 15,000 municipal wastewater treatment plants or publicly owned treatment works (POTWs) in the United States that process over 34 billion gallons of domestic sewage and other wastewater each day 21. Sewage sludge represents the largest source of residual solids generated during the treatment of municipal wastewater by POTWs as well as by privately and federally owned wastewater treatment works.

Reliability Engineering: Theory Practice

Reliability engineering can help. Its purpose is to develop methods and tools to evaluate and demonstrate reliability, maintainability, availability, and safety of components, equipment & systems, and to support development and production engineers in building in these characteristics. To build in reliability, maintainability, and safety into complex systems, failure rate and failure mode analyses must be performed early in the development phase and be supported (as far as possible) by failure mechanism analysis, design guidelines, and design reviews. Before production, qualification tests are necessary to verify that targets have been achieved. In the production phase, processes have to be qualified and monitored to assure the required quality level. For many systems,availability requirements have to be met and stochastic processes are used to investigate and optimize reliability and availability, including logistic support as well. Software often plays a dominant role, requiring specific quality assurance activities. Finally, to be cost and time effective, reliability engineering has to be coordinated with quality management (TQM) efforts, including value engineering and concurrent engineering, as appropriate. This book presents the state-of-the-art of reliability engineering in theory and practice. It is a textbook based on the author's experience of 30 years in this field.

Environmental Engineering: Prevention and Response

Water treatment and pollution problems to the same degree that more advanced nations, with much larger budgets and technical skills, have accomplished. Where economic and technical constraints limit treatment options, taking care of basic needs and minimum levels of sanitation become the driving force underlying technological implementation. Increasingly, the world is faced with a new set of challenges to the environment, namely the need to develop plans to address emergencies—in real time. Issues such as hazard analysis, security assessment, emergency training, response logistics and standby medical equipment have taken on new meaning. Increased population densities in urban areas and along coastlines puts many more lives at risk from environmental emergencies and requires increased levels of detail and response, not seen in the past.

Modelling in Mechanical Engineering and Mechatronics: Towards Autonomous Intelligent Software Models

These are high quality, low price, and last but not least – high customization, leading to an explosively increasing number of variants to be produced and to complexity of the products and their production. In these conditions of increasing competition, the trends to specialization and consolidation of small and medium-sized enterprises are a legitimate consequence. One of the most challenging tasks related to the product and process modelling (as in many other areas) is the management of expert knowledge. This means that modelling is used in order to accelerate knowledge acquisition, to formalize knowledge representation and to enable knowledge transfer and reuse. A key to achieving these goals is the proper application of modelling.

Engineering Reliability

The purpose of this book is to develop the use of probability in engineering reliability and maintenance problems. We use probability models in 1) analysis of failure data, 2) decision relative to planned maintenance,
3) prediction relative to preliminary design. Engineering applications are emphasized and are used to motivate the methodology presented.
The background required is at least a first course in probability. Although the probability calculus will be reviewed, it would be best to have had previous exposure. Some previous knowledge of engineering or physics at the beginning level would also be helpful. The academic level required is upper division undergraduate or first year graduate, but no previous course in statistics or measure theory is needed. We will make extensive use of spreadsheets in the exercises. Spreadsheets such as EXCEL are now ubiquitous and contain most of the mathematical and statistical functions needed to solve many of the exercises in this book. They are also very useful for the graphical analysis of failure data contained in the book.

Cold-Formed Steel Design , Third Edition by Wei -Wen Yu

Cold-Formed Steel Design, published by John Wiley & Sons, Inc. in 1991. All the revisions are based on the 1996 edition of the AISI Specification with the
Supplement No. 1 which combines the Allowable Stress Design (ASD) and the Load and Resistance Factor Design (LRFD) methods. The material was originally developed for graduate courses and short courses in the analysis and design of cold-formed steel structures and is based on experience in design, research, and development of American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI) design criteria. Throughout the book, descriptions of the structural behavior of cold-formed steel members and connections are given from both the theoretical and the experimental points of view. The reasons and justification for the various design provisions of the AISI Specification are discussed at length. Consequently the text will not only be instructive for students but can serve as a major source of reference for structural engineers and researchers. Of the published book’s 14 chapters, Chapters 2 through 9 have been completely revised according to the combined ASD/LRFD Specification. Other chapters have been updated on the basis of available information. Chapter 14 is a new chapter on residential construction.

Conservation Equations And Modeling Of Chemical And Biochemical Processes

This book addresses one of the most important subjects in chemical engineering—modeling and conservation equations. These constitute the basis of any successful understanding, analysis, design, operation, and optimization of chemical and biochemical processes. The novel system approach used incorporates a unified and systematic way of addressing the subject, thus streamlining this difficult subject into easy-to-follow enjoyable reading. We have adopted a novel approach in the preparation of this rather revolutionary undergraduate-level chemical engineering textbook. It is based on the use of system theory in developing mathematical models (rigorous design equations) for different chemical and biochemical systems. After a brief introduction to system theory and its applications, the book uses the generalized modular conservation equations (material and energy balances) as the starting point.

Software Engineering for Multi-Agent Systems V

This book brings together a collection of 12 papers addressing a wide range of issues in software engineering for MASs, reflecting the importance of agent properties in today’s software systems. The papers in this book describe recent developments in specific issues and practical experience. At the end of each chapter, the reader will find a list of interesting references for further reading. The papers are grouped into five categories: Faulty Tolerance, Exception Handling and Diagnosis, Security and Trust, Verification and Validation, and Early Development Phases and Software Reuse. We believe that this carefully prepared volume will be of particular value to all readers interested in these key topics, describing the most recent developments in the field of software engineering for MASs. Software is present in every aspect of our lives, pushing us inevitably towards a world of distributed computing systems. Agent concepts hold great promise for responding to the new realities of large-scale distributed systems. Multi-agent systems (MASs) and their underlying theories provide a more natural support for ensuring important agent properties, such as autonomy, environment heterogeneity, organization and openness. Nevertheless, a software agent is an inherently more complex abstraction, posing new challenges to software engineering.

Nonlinear Structural Engineering: With Unique Theories and Methods to Solve Effectively Complex Nonlinear Problems

In part, the purpose of this book is to concentrate its efforts on the nonlinear static and dynamic analysis of structural beam components that are widely used in everyday engineering applications. The analysis and design of the beam component can become very complicated when it is subjected to a large deformation, or when its material is permitted to be stressed well beyond its elastic limit and all the way to failure. The problem becomes even
more complicated when the cross-sectional geometry of the member changes along its length, or when the modulus of elasticity of its material varies along its length. Therefore, such beam problems deserve special consideration. The book also includes a reasonable treatment regarding the nonlinear analysis of inelastic plates, suspension bridges and their failures, multistory buildings subjected to strong earthquakes, as well as many other interesting nonlinear problems, such as thick cylinders, inelastic torsion, inelastic vibrations, inelastic analysis of flexible members, and so on. The practicing design engineer, who deals with the design of structures and structural and mechanical components in general, is often confronted with nonlinear problems and he/she needs to develop a design procedure that deals effectively with such types of problems. Flexible members, structures subjected to blast and earthquake, suspension bridges, aircraft structural elements, and so on, are only a few examples where understanding of their nonlinear behavior is extremely important for an adequate and safe design.

Handbook of Medical Image Processing and Analysis

This handbook present concept and digital techniques for processing and analyzing medical images after they have been generated or digitized. It is organized into six sections that correspond to the fundamental classes of algorithms: enhancement, segmentation, quantification, registration, visualization, and a section that covers compression, storage, and communication. The discoveries of seminal physical phenomena such as X-rays, ultrasound, radioactivity, and magnetic resonance, and the development of imaging instruments that harness them have provided some of the most effective diagnostic tools in medicine. The medical imaging community is now able to probe into the structure, function, and pathology of the human body with a diversity of imaging systems. These systems are also
used for planning treatment and surgery, as well as for imaging in biology. Data sets in two, three, or more dimensions convey increasingly vast and detailed information for clinical or
research applications. This information has to be interpreted in a timely and accurate manner to benefit health care.

Applied Quantum Mechanics

The book is intended for use in a one-semester introductory course in applied quantum mechanics for engineers, material scientists, and others interested in understanding the critical role of quantum mechanics in determining the behavior of practical devices. To help maintain interest in this subject, I felt it was important to encourage the reader to solve problems and to explore the possibilities of the Schrödinger equation. To
ease the way, solutions to example exercises are provided in the text, and the enclosed CD-ROM contains computer programs written in the MATLAB language that illustrate these solutions. The computer programs may be usefully exploited to explore the effects of changing parameters such as temperature, particle mass, and potential within a given problem. In addition, they may be used as a starting point in the development of designs for quantum mechanical devices. This book is designed to better match such student needs.

Free download Computational Materials Engineering: An Introduction to Microstructure Evolution

Computational Microstructure Evolution this book is the result of five extremely busy and active researchers taking a substantial amount of their (free) time to put their expertise down in an understandable, self-explaining manner. I am very grateful for their efforts, and hope the reader will profit The book in front of you is an introduction to computational microstructure evolution. It is not an introduction to microstructure evolution. It does assume you have been sufficiently introduced to materials science and engineering to know what microstructure evolution is about. That being said we could end our introduction here and skip straight to the computational chapters. However, if you intend to learn more about the science of polycrystalline materials but want to learn about them through their computational modeling, then this chapter will give you the bare-bones introduction to the secrets of microstructures. Just remember that the one law binding any type of computational modeling is equally valid for computational microstructure evolution.

The CRC Handbook of Thermal Engineering

This handbook is not designed to compete with traditional handbooks of heat transfer that stress fundamental principles, analytical approaches to thermal problems, and elegant solutions of traditional problems in the thermal sciences. The goal of this handbook is to provide information on specific topics of current interest in a convenient form that is accessible to the average engineer in industry. The handbook contains in the first three chapters sufficient background information to refresh the reader's memory of the basic principles necessary to understand specific applications. The bulk of the book, however, is devoted to applications in thermal design and for technologies of current interest, as well as to computer solutions of heat transfer and thermal engineering problems. The applications treated in the book have been selected on the basis of their current relevance to the development of new products in diverse fields such as food processing, energy conservation, bioengineering, desalination, measurement techniques in fluid flow and heat transfer, and other specific topics. Each application section stands on its own, but reference is made to the basic introductory material as necessary. The introductory material is presented in such a manner that it can be referred to and used by several authors of application sections. For the convenience of the reader, each author has been requested to use the same nomenclature in order to help the reader in the transition from material in some of the basic chapters to the application chapters. But wherever necessary, authors have defined special symbols in their chapters.

Tools in Fluvial Geomorphology

Through the range of the tools presented in this book,we have sought to
a reference not only for the practicing geomorphologist and graduate student, but also to provide the manger and scientist working with geomorphologists with an idea of the range of approaches potentially available to address fluvial geomorphic problem. The purpose of this chapter is to provide a framework within which the tools can be used, and to present examples of application of geomorphic tools to problems in river management and restoration. Fluvial geomorphology can be useful to other disciplines, such as ecology and engineers, as well as practitioners, such as planners and river managers.

Molecular Biomethods Handbook - Second Edition

In the first edition of the Molecular Biomethods Handbook, we introduced the reader to a selection of analytical and preparative techniques that we considered to be frequently used by research workers in the field of molecular biology. Clearly, within the constraints of a single volume we had to be selective in the techniques we described. Since the first edition was published, science has continued to move on apace. For example, the use of microarray technology is now commonplace, nanotechnology has entered the scientific literature, microfluidic technology has been developed, the tremendous potential of stem cells has been recognized, single-cell analysis is becoming routine, the human genome has been sequenced, and new techniques for mapping and RNA expression have been introduced. The second edition is consequently significantly expanded, with over 1100 pages compared to the 720 pages of the first edition.

Aromaticity in Heterocyclic Compound

Aromaticity is a manifestation of electron delocalization in closed circuits, either in two or in three dimensions. This results in energy lowering, often quite substantial, and a variety of unusual chemical and physical properties. These include a tendency toward bond length equalization, unusual reactivity, and characteristic spectroscopic features. Since aromaticity is related to induced ring currents, magnetic properties are particularly important for its detection and evaluation.Aromaticity is a notion that appeared in the mid-nineteenth century to differentiate between unsaturated hydrocarbons and formally unsaturated benzene .At the
end of the nineteenth century it seemed that cyclicity was a necessary condition for differentiation between the two, but at the beginning of the twentieth century it turned out that the above assumption was not correct because cyclooctatetraene exhibited typical properties known for polyenes . The essential property of benzene- like compounds, often identified with aromatic compounds, was low reactivity. Hence thermodynamic stability was defined as resonance energy and was the first quantitative measure of aromaticity.

Computational Flow Modeling for Chemical Reactor Engineering

To assist practicing engineers in these aspects, workshops on ‘computational flow modeling for chemical process industries’ were started at the National Chemical Laboratory. The enthusiastic response to these workshops has encouraged me to write this book, which is an expanded and formalized presentation of workshop notes. I have tried to provide sufficient information to understand and to define the specific role of computational flow modeling for reactor engineering applications, to select appropriate tools and to apply these tools to link reactor hardware to reactor performance. The intended audience of the book is practicing chemical engineers working in industry as well as chemical engineering scientists and research students working in the area of reactor engineering. Some prior background in reactor engineering and numerical techniques is assumed. The information in the book is organized to facilitate the central task of reactor engineer, that is, relating reactor hardware to reactor performance. Several steps to achieve such a task are discussed to clearly define the role of flow modeling in the overall reactor engineering activity.
