This tutorial book offers an in-depth overview of the fundamental principles of micro/nano technologies and devices related to sensing, actuation and diagnosis in fluidics and biosystems. Research in the MEMS/NEMS and lab-on-chip fields has seen rapid growth in both academic and industrial domains, as these biodevices and...
This book introduces a passivity-based approach which simplifies the controller design task for AC-motors. It presents the application of this novel approach to several classes of AC motors, magnetic levitation systems, microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) and rigid robot manipulators actuated by AC motors.
A concise textbook bridging quantum theory and spectroscopy!
Designed as a practical text, Quantum Mechanical Foundations of Molecular Spectroscopy covers the quantum mechanical fundamentals of molecular spectroscopy from the view of a professional spectroscopist, rather than a theoretician. Written by a...
Research, development, and commercialization of emerging non-volatile memories
(NVMs) are being aggressively pursued by the design community to supplement
and/or substitute conventional volatile and NV memory technologies that are facing
stiff scalability challenges. The emerging NVMs such as Magnetic RAM (MRAM),...
This book offers a collection of papers presented in the International Conference on Geomagnetism, Paleomagnetism and Rock Magnetism held in Kazan (Russia) in October 2017. Papers in this book are dedicated to the study of the geomagnetic field through most of the Earth's history as well as planetary and meteorite magnetism, and magnetic...
The volume of this new edition of the Handbook cover the basic biological, medical, physical, and electrical engineering principles. They also include experimental results concerning how electric and magnetic fields affect biological systems?both as potential hazards to health and potential tools for medical treatment and scientific...
An investigation into the nature of violence, terror, and trauma through conversations with a notorious war criminal by Jessica Stern, one of the world's foremost experts on terrorism.
Between October 2014 and November 2016, global terrorism expert Jessica Stern held a series of conversations in a...
Joining and welding are two of the most important processes in manufacturing. These technologies have vastly improved and are now extensively used in numerous industries. This book covers a wide range of topics, from arc welding (Gmaw and Gtaw), Fsw, laser and hybrid welding, and magnetic pulse welding on metal joining to the application of...
Current for today's physician, the new sixth edition features more than 2000 superperbly reproduced illustrations covering the spectrum of disorders and conditions seen in gynecologic and maternal-fetal care. Check out these areas of exciting NEW coverage:

Editing is storytelling. It’s choosing from a sometimes vast array of video and audio clips,
and assembling them into a coherent experience that can educate, excite, motivate, or
move viewers. Built on that fundamental truth of video editing, Final Cut Pro X enables a
rich workflow that permits you to approach editing as a...
This book covers Android app design fundamentals in Android Studio using Java programming language.
The author assumes you have no experience in app development. The book starts with the installation of the required development environment and setting up the emulators. Then, the simplest “Hello World” app is...
In 2010, the ALPHA collaboration achieved a first for mankind: the stable, long-term storage of atomic antimatter, a project carried out a the Antiproton Decelerator facility at CERN. A crucial element of this observation was a dedicated silicon vertexing detector used to identify and analyze antihydrogen annihilations. This thesis reports...
