This manual derives many experiments and procedures from the classic Feiser lab text, giving it an unsurpassed reputation for solid, authoritative content. Featuring updated NMR spectra, new experime
Computer-Aided Control Systems Design: Practical Applications Using MATLABR and SimulinkR supplies a solid foundation in applied control to help you bridge the gap between control theory and its real-
A collection of works authored by leading scientists from the United States and Russia, Human-Computer Interaction and Operators' Performance: Optimizing Work Design with Activity Theory describes ap
This work is an extension of Electromagnetic Modelling of Wire Antenna Structures by D. Poljak (a co-author of this volume), which described a variant of the Galerkin Bubnov Indirect Boundary Element
For all the fancy software running most everything these days, say veteran electrical and electronic engineers Ozenbaugh and Pullen, large, strangely shaped actual physical components are still requir
Nonlinear static monotonic (pushover) analysis has become a common practice in performance-based bridge seismic design. The popularity of pushover analysis is due to its ability to identify the failur
Personal computing has reshaped economies and industries, and is transforming how we express ourselves and relate to one another. The most personal of personal computers are the portables. We carry th
In this book, internationally recognized experts in philosophy of science, computer science, and modeling and simulation are contributing to the discussion on how ontology, epistemology, and teleology
Essential to database design, entity-relationship (ER) diagrams are known for their usefulness in mapping out clear database designs. They are also well-known for being difficult to master. With Datab
An experiment occurs when people manipulate the world in order to understand causal relationships. The secret in science is to have precise control of the different elements to the experiment, and the
Emphasizes the strategy of experimentation, data analysis, and the interpretation of experimental results. Features numerous examples using actual engineering and scientific studies. Presents statis
The rail network plays an essential role in transport infrastructure worldwide. This book presents a comprehensive procedure for the design of ballasted tracks based on a rational approach that combin
The designer, author and design activist Victor J. Papanek anticipated an understanding of design as a tool for political change and social good that is more relevant today than ever. He was one of th
This book presents the art of advanced MOSFET modeling for integrated circuit simulation and design. It provides the essential mathematical and physical analyses of all the electrical, mechanical and
