In contemporary globally competitive markets, the development of new products
is considered a critical success factor for organizations. Significant efforts have
been invested in the development of methods and tools for improving the management
of design processes, being a key element in development processes,
especially those related...
One of the most enticing aspects of mathematics, we have found, is the interplay of
ideas from seemingly disparate disciplines of the subject. Linear algebra provides
a beautiful illustration of this, in that it is by nature both algebraic and geometric.

Examine several methods of testing for genetically modified organisms and the reasons behind their strict regulation!
Testing of Genetically Modified Organisms in Foods is the first study of the screening methods and tools utilized for determining the presence of genetically modified organisms (GMOs) in food products. Leading...
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...
This book deals is intended for anyone wishing to learn more about the
materials and manufacturing processes used to fabricate and assemble
advanced composites. Although advanced composites can mean many
different types of fibers in either polymer, metal or ceramic matrices, this
book deals with the three main fibers (glass,...
The HTML5 canvas is revolutionizing graphics and visualizations on the Web. Powered
by JavaScript, the HTML5 Canvas API enables web developers to create visualizations
and animations right in the browser without Flash. Although the HTML5 Canvas is quickly
becoming the standard for online graphics and interactivity, many developers fail...
KINEMATICS is a branch of dynamics that studies aspects of motion apart from considerations of masses and forces. Essentially, Kinematics is a collection of vector/matrix methods to describe positions, velocities and accelerations of particles and rigid bodies, as viewed from various reference frames. The sub- eld of Particle Kinematics...
Electron magnetic resonance in the time domain has been greatly facilitated by
the introduction of novel resonance structures and better computational tools, such
as the increasingly widespread use of density-matrix formalism. This second volume
in our series, devoted both to instrumentation and computation, addresses applications
and...
This volume presents the fundamentals of graph theory and then goes on to discuss specific chemical applications. Chapter 1 provides a historical setting for the current upsurge of interest in chemical graph theory. chapter 2 gives a full background of the basic ideas and mathematical formalism of graph theory and includes such chemically...
Polymericmaterials, both “inert” and degradable, constantly interact with the
surroundings. Because of this interaction changes take place in the polymer
matrix and small molecules are released to the environment. Reliable methods
for testing biodegradability and environmental interaction of renewable
resources and...
WHIP UP SOME FIENDISHLY FUN PICAXE MICROCONTROLLER DEVICES
"Ron has worked hard to explain how the PICAXE system operates through simple examples, and I'm sure his easy-to-read style will help many people progress with their PICAXE projects."
This wickedly inventive guide shows you how to program,...
MATLAB is an abbreviation for MATrix LABoratory and it is ideally suited for
computations involving matrices. Since all of the sciences routinely collect data in
the form of (spreadsheet) matrices, MATLAB turns out to be particularly suitable
for the analysis of mathematical problems in an assortment of fields. MATLAB is
very easy to...
