Name: Environmental Chemistry: Asian Lessons
Author: Vladimir N. Bashkin (Moscow State University)
Publisher: Kluwer
Series:
Year: 2003
Volume:
Pages: 480
Illustrations:
ISBN: 1-4020-1003-6
Language: English
Filetype: Adobe PDF
Filesize: 21.1 Mb

Written for: Students in ecology, chemistry, environmental science, public health, geography, biology, and environmental engineering.

At present environmental chemistry is becoming an increasingly popular subject in both under graduate and graduated education in the whole World and especially in all Asian countries. Different courses in ecology, chemistry, environmental science, public health, geography, biology, and environmental engineering all include this subject in their curriculum.

Many textbooks have appeared in recent years aiming to fulfill these requirements; however, most of these books operate mainly with examples from developed countries of Europe, USA and Canada. Taking into account the geographic boundaries of environmental pollution that is especially pronounced in Asia and the specific peculiarities of pollution in developing countries, this textbook is supposed to close the gap by providing regionally oriented knowledge in basic and applied environmental chemistry.

Multibody Mechanics and Visualization

00161257870iv3.jpg


Name: Multibody Mechanics and Visualization
Author: Harry Dankowicz
Publisher: Springer
Series:
Year: 2005
Volume: XVIII
Pages: 510
Illustrations: 159
ISBN: 1-85233-799-0
Language: English
Filetype: Adobe PDF
Filesize: 15.8 Mb

Written for: Undergraduate students in mechanical engineering and computing; academics working in dynamics, 3-d visualization, mechanical engineering and multibody mechanics; libraries; graduate students.

Multibody Mechanics and Visualization is designed to appeal to computer-savvy students who will acquire significant skills in mathematical and physical modelling of mechanical systems in the process of producing attractive computer simulations and animations. The emphasis here is on general skills with all-round applicability rather than the ability to solve “cooked-up” problems. The approachable style and clear presentation of this text will help you grasp the essentials of: modeling the kinematics and dynamics of arbitrary multibody mechanisms; formulating a mathematical description of general motions of such mechanisms; implementing the description in a computer-graphics application for the animation/visualization of the movement. Multibody Mechanics and Visualization plays down the prediction of dynamics by formal analysis of differential equations while preparing its students to perform such analyses with greater understanding later. The text relies on the following principles for effective tuition: an inductive approach to learning - discerning general patterns from particular observations; repetition and review of important principles to reinforce your learning through numerous examples; obvious visual guidance that shows you at a glance which information you need for different levels of understanding; computer tools, visual representations and elements of active learning integrated into the text to suit the way you want to learn. Supported in the text in parallel with the theoretical presentation is the simulation and animation application Mambo. In contrast with existing commercially available educational software tools, Mambo requires detailed input from you in order to define the specific geometry of a mechanism as well as the differential equations governing its behavior while allowing you to visualize the results of your efforts. The Mambo toolbox enables you to provide these specifications for mechanisms that would pose insurmountable algebraic challenges to manual calculation. With these tools, you will be able to see the implications of decisions made throughout the modeling process, to check your mathematical analyses, and to enjoy the fruit of your labor! Mambo can be freely downloaded from the author's website and runs under any version of MS Windows®. The toolbox is compatible with the Maple™ software environment and the Matlab® extended symbolic toolbox.

Mechanics of Microelectromechanical Systems

00161370250qz9.jpg


Name: Mechanics of Microelectromechanical Systems
Author: Nicolae Lobontiu, Ephrahim Garcia
Publisher: Kluwer
Series:
Year: 2004
Volume: XII
Pages: 405
Illustrations: 295
ISBN: 1-4020-8013-1
Language: English
Filetype: Adobe PDF
Filesize: 11.9 Mb

Written for: Undergraduate students in electrical engineering, undergraduate students in mechanical engineering.

This book offers a comprehensive coverage to the mechanics of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS), which are analyzed from a mechanical engineer's viewpoint as devices that transform an input form of energy into output mechanical motion (in the case of actuation) or that can operate with the reversed functionality (as in sensors) and convert an external stimulus, such as mechanical motion, into (generally) electric energy. The impetus of this proposal stems from the perception that such an approach might contribute to a more solid understanding of the principles governing the mechanics of MEMS, and would hopefully enhance the efficiency of modeling and designing reliable and desirably-optimized microsystems. The work represents an attempt at both extending and deepening the mechanical-based approach to MEMS in the static domain by providing simple, yet reliable tools that are applicable to micromechanism design through current fabrication technologies.

Multivariable Control Systems

00162908870dx7.jpg


Name: Multivariable Control Systems: An Engineering Approach
Author: P. Albertos and A. Sala
Publisher: Springer
Series: Advanced Textbooks in Control and Signal Processing
Year: 2004
Volume: XVIII
Pages: 340
Illustrations: 67
ISBN: 1-85233-738-9
Language: English
Filetype: Adobe PDF
Filesize: 2.34 Mb

Written for: M.Sc. and early Ph.D. students in control engineering; final-year undergraduate students in control engineering; academics teaching courses in control; libraries.

Multivariable control techniques solve issues of complex specification and modelling errors elegantly but the complexity of the underlying mathematics is much higher than presented in traditional single-input, single-output control courses.

Multivariable Control Systems focuses on control design with continual references to the practical aspects of implementation. While the concepts of multivariable control are justified, the book emphasises the need to maintain student interest and motivation over exhaustively rigorous mathematical proof. Tools of analysis and representation are always developed as methods for achieving a final control system design and evaluation.

Features:

• design implementation clearly laid out using extensive reference to MATLAB®;

• combined consideration of systems (plant) and signals (mainly disturbances) in a fluent but simple presentation;

• step-by-step approach from the objectives of multivariable control to the solution of complete design problems.

Multivariable Control Systems is an ideal text for masters students, students beginning their Ph.D. or for final-year undergraduates looking for more depth than provided by introductory textbooks. It will also interest the control engineer practising in industry and seeking to implement robust or multivariable control solutions to plant problems in as straightforward a manner as possible.

Multicriteria Optimization

00161469280pl0.jpg


Name: Multicriteria Optimization, 2nd ed.
Author: Matthias Ehrgott
Publisher: Springer
Series:
Year: 2005
Volume: XIII
Pages: 323
Illustrations: 88
ISBN: 3-540-21398-8
Language: English
Filetype: Adobe PDF
Filesize: 3.77 Mb

Written for: Graduate students, researchers.

Decision makers in many areas, from industry to engineering and the social sector, face an increasing need to consider multiple, conflicting objectives in their decision processes. In many cases these real world decision problems can be formulated as multicriteria mathematical optimization models. The solution of such models requires appropriate techniques to compute so called efficient, or Pareto optimal, or compromise solutions that - unlike traditional mathematical programming methods - take the contradictory nature of the criteria into account. This book provides the necessary mathematical foundation of multicriteria optimization to solve nonlinear, linear and combinatorial problems with multiple criteria. Motivational examples illustrate the use of multicriteria optimization in practice. Numerous illustrations and exercises as well as an extensive bibliography are provided.

In the new edition a chapter on optimality conditions has been added. The linear programming part has been extended and includes new developments. Moreover, motivational examples are now introducing the majority of chapters.

Soil Formation

00161180380zd6.jpg


Name: Soil Formation, 2nd ed.
Author: Nico van Breemen, Peter Buurman
Publisher: Kluwer
Series:
Year: 2002
Volume:
Pages: 416
Illustrations:
ISBN: 1-4020-0718-3
Language: English
Filetype: Adobe PDF
Filesize: 24.7 Mb

Written for: Pedology graduate student, many pedology professors as well.

Soil Formation deals with qualitative and quantitative aspects of soil formation (or pedogenesis) and the underlying chemical, biological, and physical processes. The starting point of the text is the process - and not soil classification. Effects of weathering and new formation of minerals, mobilisation, transport, and breakdown or immobilisation of dissolved and suspended compounds are discussed. Soil processes and profiles are discussed in relation to the landscape, the geosphere, and the biosphere. Emphasis lies on the universality of soil-forming processes in past and present, and on the soil as a dynamic entity that forms part of the total environment.

Complexity of genetic processes in time and space is given much attention. The text gives many examples from literature and places some in a new light. The reader is guided through the subject matter by a large number of questions and problems to help understand and synthesis the material. Answers to all questions are included. This second edition has been updated to reflect recent discoveries. Printing errors have been corrected, and new photographs support the text.

"Working through the questions and problems in this book would provide a rigorous training for any advanced pedology graduate student (and for many pedology professors as well)."

Analysis and control of nonlinear process systems

00161062260vg5.jpg


Name: Analysis and control of nonlinear process systems
Author: K.M. Hangos, J. Bokor and G. Szederkényi
Publisher: Springer
Series: Advanced Textbooks in Control and Signal Processing
Year: 2004
Volume: XXIV
Pages: 308
Illustrations: 42
ISBN: 1-85233-600-5
Language: English
Filetype: Adobe PDF
Filesize: 1.96 Mb

Written for: Graduate students, academics, libraries, undergraduate students, research institutes.

Almost all process systems are nonlinear in nature. Nonlinear control is traditionally an area of interest in process systems engineering which is of great practical importance. These facts notwithstanding, many process engineers have difficulty with the paradigms and results of modern nonlinear control theory because they lack the mathematical background usually associated with such methods or because of their computational difficulty and small-scale applicability in the general case. Analysis and Control of Nonlinear Process Systems overcomes these barriers.

Features:

- The necessary mathematical preliminaries for readers from a process engineering background

- Constant reference to the widely-known finite-dimensional linear time-invariant continuous case as a basis for extension to the nonlinear situation

- The most promising theories and analytical methods for nonlinear process control laid out clearly and straightforwardly with exercises to reaffirm the techniques as they are taught

- Emphasis on the importance of process knowledge and first-principles-based models in obtaining feasible and effective solutions in particular circumstances from general cases

- Illustration of applications with simple examples and case studies

Analysis and Control of Nonlinear Process Systems will interest graduate process engineers wishing to study advanced control methods either with a view to further research or application in industry as well as to academics seeking to move process control courses into more complicated but up-to-date territory. It will also be a great assistance to those in their senior undergraduate years who will form the next generation of industrial process engineers and need unfussy access to the most modern nonlinear control ideas.

Fundamentals in Nuclear Physics

00161485620fw8.jpg


Name: Fundamentals in Nuclear Physics: From Nuclear Structure to Cosmology
Author: Jean-Louis Basdevant, James Rich, Michel Spiro
Publisher: Springer
Series:
Year: 2005
Volume: XIV
Pages: 522
Illustrations: 184
ISBN: 0-387-01672-4
Language: English
Filetype: Adobe PDF
Filesize: 4.55 Mb

Written for: Advanced undergraduate and graduate students.

This course on nuclear physics leads the reader to the exploration of the field from nuclei to astrophysical issues. Much nuclear phenomenology can be understood from simple arguments such as those based on the Pauli principle and the Coulomb barrier. This book is concerned with extrapolating from such arguments and illustrating nuclear systematics with experimental data. Starting with the basic concepts in nuclear physics, nuclear models, and reactions, the book covers nuclear decays and the fundamental electro-weak interactions, radioactivity, and nuclear energy. After the discussions of fission and fusion leading into nuclear astrophysics, there is a presentation of the latest ideas about cosmology. As a primer this course will lay the foundations for more specialized subjects.

This book emerged from a series of topical courses the authors delivered at the Ecole Polytechnique and will be useful for graduate students and for scientists in a variety of fields.

Single-Facility Location Problems with Barriers

Name: Single-Facility Location Problems with Barriers
Author: Kathrin Klamroth
Publisher: Springer
Series: Springer Series in Operations Research and Financial Engineering

Volume: XI
Pages: 201

Written for: Researchers, graduate students.

Growing transportation costs and tight delivery schedules mean that good located decisions are more crucial than ever in the success or failure of industrial and puplic projects. The development of realistic location models is an essential phase in every locational decision process. Especially when dealing with geometric representations of continuous (planar) location model problems, the goegraphical reality must be incorporated. This text develops the mathematical implications of barriers to the geometrical and analytical characteristics of continuous location problems. Besides their relevance in the application of location theoretic results, location problems with barriers are also very interesting from a mathematical point of view. The nonconvexity of distance measures in the presence of barriers leads to nonconvex optimization problems. Most of the classical methods in continuous location theory rely heaily on the convexity of the objective function and will thus fail in this context. On the other hand, general methods in global optimization capable of treating nonconvex problems ignore the geometric charateristics of the location problems considered. Theoretic as well as algorithmic approaches are utilized to overcome the described difficulties for the solution of location problems with barriers. Depending on the barrier shapes, the underlying distance measure, and type of objective function, different concepts are conceived to handle the nonconvexity of the problem. This book will appeal to those working in operations research and management science and mathematicians interested in optimization theory and its applications.
