 Computational Chemistry: Reviews of Current Trends
There is no doubt that many of the readers of this book series wonder
how the research/computational facilities will look like in the near future.
It seems that the efficiency and compactness of the silicon-based
computers are almost exhausted, and for significant progress one has to
look for alternative solutions. A very... |  |  Carbon-Carbon Materials and Composites
Carbon-carbon composites, which have been used extensively for missile
applications, were a part of NASA's Apollo spacecraft heat shield system. The
development of carbon-carbon materials began in 1958 and was nurtured under
the U.S. Air Force space plane program, Dyna-Soar, and by numerous thermal
protection systems... |  |  Renewable and Efficient Electric Power Systems
Engineering for sustainability is an emerging theme for the twenty-first century,
and the need for more environmentally benign electric power systems is a critical
part of this new thrust. Renewable energy systems that take advantage of
energy sources that won’t diminish over time and are independent of fluctuations
in... |

 Thermodynamics And Heat Powered Cycles: A Cognitive Engineering Approach
Due to the rapid advances in computer technology, intelligent computer software and
multimedia have become essential parts of engineering education. Software integration with
various media such as graphics, sound, video and animation is providing efficient tools for
teaching and learning. A modern textbook should contain both the... |  |  |  |  Ceramic Matrix Composites: Fiber Reinforced Ceramics and their Applications
Ceramic Matrix Composites (CMCs) represent a relatively new class of quasiductile
ceramic materials. They are characterized by carbon or ceramic fi bers embedded
in ceramic matrices (oxide or non - oxide) with comparatively low bonding
forces between the fi bers and the matrix. These weak intefaces, in combination
with a porous... |

 Corrosion Prevention and Protection: Practical Solutions
There are many books and monographs on corrosion, such as Corrosion and Corrosion Control by H. H. Uhlig and R. W. Revie; Corrosion Engineering by M. G. Fontana and N. D. Greene; Principles and Prevention of Corrosion by D. A. Jones; An Introduction to Corrosion and Protection of Metals by G. Wranglen; and Corrosion for Science and... |  |  Instant Pain Control: Using the Body's Trigger Points
The framework of the human body is held together by a substance
known as fascia. This is a connective tissue which envelops the
muscles, nerves and blood vessels and which gives cohesion and
order to the myriad components of the body, It allows movement
between adjacent structures and reduces the effects of pressure
and... |  |  Audel HVAC Fundamentals, Air Conditioning, Heat Pumps and Distribution Systems
The purpose of this series is to provide the layman with an introduction
to the fundamentals of installing, servicing, troubleshooting,
and repairing the various types of equipment used in residential and
light-commercial heating, ventilating, and air conditioning (HVAC)
systems. Consequently, it was written not only for the... |
