 C++ for Engineers and Scientists
The C++ programming language, which includes C as a proper subset, has become the
preeminent programming language in the engineering and scientific fields. For most
engineers and scientists, however, using the full potential of C++, which is a hybrid language
containing both structured and object-oriented features, involves a gradual... | | Chemical Engineering Fluid Mechanics, Revised and Expanded
The objectives of this book are twofold: (1) for the student, to show how the
fundamental principles underlying the behavior of fluids (with emphasis on
one-dimensional macroscopic balances) can be applied in an organized and
systematic manner to the solution of practical engineering problems, and (2)
for the practicing engineer, to... | | Damage and Interfacial Debonding in Composites (Studies in Applied Mechanics)
This book represents thirteen papers that are based on the presentations made in the five
session symposium on "Damage and Interfacial Debonding in Composites" on the occasion
of the 32nd Society of Engineering Science Meeting; held in New Orleans, Louisiana,
October 29 - November 1, 1995. The five sessions were mainly in the... |

Quantum Cryptography and Secret-Key Distillation
This book aims at giving an introduction to the principles and techniques
of quantum cryptography, including secret-key distillation, as well as some
more advanced topics. As quantum cryptography is now becoming a practical
reality with products available commercially, it is important to focus not
only on the theory of quantum... | | 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... | | Wearable Robots: Biomechatronic Exoskeletons
Being a multidisciplinary area involving subjects such as mechanics, electronics and computing, the
evolution and spread of robotics to different application sectors still requires intense interaction with
other fields of science and technology. This applies equally when dealing with wearable robots,
meaning robotic systems that a... |

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... | | Robot Builder's Cookbook: Build and Design Your Own Robots
Owen Bishop introduces, through hands-on project work, the mechanics, electronics and programming involved in practical robot design-and-build. The use of the PIC microcontroller throughout provides a painless introduction to programming whilst harnessing the power of a highly popular microcontroller used by students and design engineers... | | 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... |
