Fruit and Vegetable Processing: Improving Quality (Woodhead Publishing Series in Food Science, Technology and Nutrition)

CRC Press, 2002

Fruit and vegetables are both major food products in their own right and key ingredients in many processed foods. Consumers increasingly require food products that preserve their nutritional value, retain a natural and fresh colour, flavour and texture, and contain fewer additives such as preservatives. These requirements pose...

Coastal Pollution: Effects on Living Resources and Humans (Marine Science)

CRC Press, 2005

In 1996, after more than a decade of researching the effects of over-population and the consequent pollution of the greater metropolitan New York City area, Carl Sindermann published his observations and conclusions in Ocean Pollution: Effects on Living Resources and Humans, a mostly technical document that emphasized the pathological effects...

Fabrication of SiGe HBT BiCMOS Technology

CRC Press, 2007

While the idea of cleverly using silicon–germanium (SiGe) and silicon (Si) strained-layer epitaxy to practice bandgap engineering of semiconductor devices in the highly manufacturable Si material system is an old one, only in the past decade has this concept become a practical reality. The final success of creating novel Si...

Chemistry: An Industry-Based Laboratory Manual

CRC Press, 2000

Have you ever sat down and had an open discussion over coffee with an industrial chemist or chemical technician about his or her work? Have you ever “shadowed” a chemist or a chemical technician for a day as he or she went about the daily routine in an industrial or government laboratory? If you have done these things,...

Chemistry of Pyrotechnics: Basic Principles and Theory

CRC Press, 1985

Everyone has observed chemical reactions involving pyrotechnic mixtures. Beautiful 4th of July fireworks, highway distress signals, solid fuel boosters for the Space Shuttle, and the black powder used by muzzle-loading rifle enthusiasts all have a common technical background.

The chemical principles underlying...

Nanostructure control of materials

CRC Press, 2006

The World is confronted with a plethora of potentially disruptive technologies – some, such as nanotechnology, will inevitably challenge our cherished social, economic and industrial stability over the next two decades. Rational design and manufacture of materials properties through nanostructure control will profoundly...

Nickel and the Skin: Absorption, Immunology, Epidemiology, and Metallurgy (Dermatology: Clinical & Basic Science)

Informa Healthcare, 2002

From the viewpoint of immunotoxicology, hazards associated with nickel primarily derive from its type-IV immunogenic properties, as it consistently ranks as the premier anthropogenic allergen among the general population in industrialized countries. Thus, immunology of nickel represents the major part of reviews addressing...

The Handbook of Optical Communication Networks (Electrical Engineering Handbook)

CRC Press, 2003

During the last 3 decades, the field of telecommunications has witnessed tremendous growth. Proliferation of the Internet has started a true revolution that is expected to continue through the foreseeable future. Three factors have played major roles in the unprecedented growth of this field:

• Users’ incessant...

Thermodynamic Cycles: Computer-Aided Design and Optimization (Chemical Industries)

CRC Press, 2003

Development in classical thermodynamics is, logically and traditionally, aimed at the analysis of cycles. Computational efforts impose harsh constraints on the kinds and amounts of cycle analyses that can reasonably be attempted. Cycle simulations cannot approach realistic complexity. Even relative sensitivity analyses based on...

Peer-to-Peer Computing: Applications, Architecture, Protocols, and Challenges

CRC Press, 2011

Peer-to-peer computing, at least on a conceptual level, is a genuine paradigm shift—intelligence is at the edge, computing is completely decentralized, and the network is just there to knit the distributed intelligence together. Indeed, with advancements in hardware technology, proliferation of the open source development...

Understanding Complex Datasets: Data Mining with Matrix Decompositions

CRC Press, 2007

Many data-mining algorithms were developed for the world of business, for example for customer relationship management. The datasets in this environment, although large, are simple in the sense that a customer either did or did not buy three widgets, or did or did not fly from Chicago to Albuquerque.

In contrast,...

The Handbook of Human Factors in Web Design (Human Factors and Ergonomics)

CRC Press, 2004

The Handbook of Human Factors in Web Design covers basic human factors issues relating to screen design, input devices, and information organization and processing, as well as addresses newer features which will become prominent in the next generation of Web technologies. These include multimodal interfaces, wireless capabilities,...
