Prospective Evaluation of Applied Energy Research and Development at DOE (Phase Two)

National Academy Press, 2006

In recent years, federal oversight of public expenditures has sought to integrate performance and budgeting. Notably, the Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA) was passed in 1993 “in response to questions about the value and effectiveness of federal programs” (GAO, 1997, p. 11). GPRA and other mandates...

Career Opportunities in the Energy Industry

Ferguson, 2008

The energy industry and its career opportunities are certainly nothing new. Excavations in Britain suggest coal was mined and used during the Stone Age. Natural gas was produced and transported through bamboo pipelines over 2,500 years ago in China. Petroleum was used by the Babylonians in making asphalt for building their...

IEEE Recommended Practice for the Design of Reliable Industrial and Commercial Power Systems

Institution Electrical Engineers, 1998

The design of reliable industrial and commercial power systems is of considerable interest to many people. Prior to 1962, a qualitative viewpoint was taken when attempting to achieve this objective. The need for a quantitative approach was first recognized in the early 1960s when a small group of pioneers led by W. H. Dickinson...

Electro-Optics Handbook

McGraw-Hill, 2000

It’s often difficult to predict which areas of a field will become rejuvenated and grow rapidly or spin off to fit with another to form something new. The field of electro-optics is also unpredictable, but currently it has numerous forces acting on it. First is the development of new optical sources such as ultrafast lasers and fiber...

Powder Surface Area and Porosity (Environmental Resource Management Series)

Springer, 1984

The rapid growth of interest in powders and their surface properties in many diverse industries prompted the writing of this book for those who have the need to make meaningful measurements without the benefit of years of experience. It is intended as an introduction to some of the elementary theory and experimental methods...

Fiber Optic Sensors, Second Edition (Optical Science and Engineering)

CRC Press, 2008

In recent years, fiber optic sensors have developed from the laboratory research and development stage to practical applications. The market for fiber optic sensor technology may be divided into two broad categories of sensors: intrinsic and extrinsic. Intrinsic sensors are used in medicine, defense, and aerospace applications,...

Nitric Oxide Protocols (Methods in Molecular Biology)

Humana Press, 2004

It has been more than five years since the appearance of the first edition of Nitric Oxide Protocols. According to Medline, more than 32,500 publications dealing with nitric oxide have appeared in the primary literature in the intervening time from 1999 to April 2004. These numbers attest to the continuing vitality of a field...

More Time for You: A Powerful System to Organize Your Work and Get Things Done

AMACOM, 2010

The bane of my existence has always been the management (or in my case, the mismanagement) of time. I have struggled with finding time to ‘‘do it all.’’ In high school and college, I was notorious for pulling all-nighters to study or write papers (a habit I have not outgrown). When I started my career, I...

Electronics Sensors for the Evil Genius: 54 Electrifying Projects

McGraw-Hill, 2006

Electronic Sensors for the Evil Genius: 54 Electrifying Projects was created as a voyage of discover}* for children, adults, science buffs, and for those curious at heart of all ages. This book was designed to provide a spark for the curiosity seeker, as well as to inspire curious children, students, and adults alike toward experimentation...

The Thermophysics of Porous Media

CRC Press, 2001

Models for the mechanical behavior of porous media introduced more than 50 years ago are still relied upon today, but more recent work shows that, in some cases, they may violate the laws of thermodynamics. In The Thermophysics of Porous Media, the author shows that physical consistency requires a unique description of dynamic processes that...

Hdl Chip Design: A Practical Guide for Designing, Synthesizing & Simulating Asics & Fpgas Using Vhdl or Verilog

Doone, 1998

Arthur C. Clarke once wrote that any sufficiently advanced civilization would possess seemingly magical powers to a lesser-advanced one. Technology, and in particular computer technology, has and always will present a Janus head...
