 PSP Game Creation for Teens
Games have come a long way since their inception far in our past.
The tools we have used in our game play have changed, as well, from knuckle
bones to cards to board games to early arcade games to today’s spiffy video game
consoles. The progression has been a lengthy one. Now hardware advances are
even changing the way we... | | Java Concepts: Compatible with Java 5, 6 and 7
This book is an introductory text in computer science, focusing on the principles of
programming and software engineering. Here are its key features:
• Teach objects gradually.
In Chapter 2, students learn how to use objects and classes from the standard
library. Chapter 3 shows the mechanics of... | | |

Fluid Mechanics and Thermodynamics of Turbomachinery, Fifth Edition
Several modifications have been incorporated into the text in the light of recent
advances in some aspects of the subject. Further information on the interesting phenomenon
of cavitation has been included and a new section on the optimum design of
a pump inlet together with a worked example have been added which take into account... | | 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... | | Know and Understand Centrifugal Pumps
Very few industrial pumps come out of service and go into the
maintenance shop because the volute casing or impeller split down the
middle, or because the shaft fractured into four pieces. The majority of
pumps go into the shop because the bearings or the mechanical seal
failed.
Most mechanics spend their time... |

The Mechanics of Piezoelectric Structures
This book is a natural continuation of the author's previous book,
"v4w Introduction to the Theory of Piezoelectricity" (Springer, New
York, 2005), which discusses the three-dimensional theory of
piezoelectricity. Three-dimensional theory presents complicated
mathematical problems due to the anisotropy of... | | Metal Forming: Mechanics and Metallurgy
My coauthor Robert Caddell died in 1990. I have greatly missed interacting with him.
The biggest changes from the second edition are an enlargement and reorganization
of the last third of the book, which deals with sheet metal forming. Changes have been
made to the chapters on bending, plastic anisotropy, and cup... | | Mechanical Behavior of Materials
Everything that surrounds us is matter. The origin of the word matter
is mater (Latin) or matri (Sanskrit), for mother. In this sense, human
beings anthropomorphized that which made them possible – that
which gave them nourishment. Every scientific discipline concerns
itself with matter. Of all matter surrounding us, a... |
