Robotic welding systems have been used in different types of manufacturing. They can
provide several benefits in welding applications. The most prominent advantages of
robotic welding are precision and productivity. Another benefit is that labor costs can be
reduced. Robotic welding also reduces risk by moving the human...
The aim of this book is to provide the reader with a modern presentation of ionic solutions at interfaces, for physical chemists, chemists and theoretically oriented experimentalists in this field. The discussion is mainly on the structural and thermodynamic properties, in relation to presently available statistical mechanical models. Some...
Copper (Cu), an essential trace element, is required for the survival of organisms
ranging from bacteria to mammals. Because Cu ions can adopt distinct redox states (oxidized
Cu[II] or reduced Cu[I]), they play a pivotal role in cell physiology as catalytic
cofactors in the redox chemistry of enzymes involved in a broad spectrum of...
The predominate language for the development of embedded systems is clearly C. Other
languages certainly have their allure, but over 80% of all embedded systems are developed
in this classic language. Many of the advances in the industry assume the use of object-oriented
languages, web clients, and technologies that are either...
This book presents a giant collection of the latest, most widely-used electronic circuits - an invaluable reference tool! "The Encyclopedia of Electronic Circuits" is back! Not a revision of the past two volumes, this third edition in the bestselling series offers you hundreds of schematics for the latest electronics circuits from...
The microelectronics revolution persists. Technical innovations abound,
and the performance-to-cost ratios for semiconductor devices, integrated
circuits, and systems continue to grow. Although it might be entertaining, a
historical account of the past three decades of microelectronics would
provide little direct benefit to the...
Biological systems are a source of inspiration in the development of small autonomous sensor nodes. The two major types of optical vision systems found in nature are the single aperture human eye and the compound eye of insects. The latter are among the most compact and smallest vision sensors. The eye is a compound of individual lenses with...
Explains the current state of the science and points the way to technological advances
First developed in the late 1980s, lithium-ion batteries now power everything from tablet computers to power tools to electric cars. Despite tremendous progress in the last two decades in the engineering and manufacturing of lithium-ion...
This book is intended for researchers who are interested in investigating the nanomechanical properties of materials using advanced instrumentation techniques. The chapters of the book are written in an easy-to-follow format, just like solved examples. The book comprehensively covers a broad range of materials such as polymers, ceramics,...
"Eric and Russell were early adopters of Cassandra at SimpleReach. In Practical Cassandra, you benefit from their experience in the trenches administering Cassandra, developing against it, and building one of the first CQL drivers. If you are deploying Cassandra soon, or you inherited a Cassandra cluster to tend, spend...
Understanding damage and failure of composite materials is critical for reliable and cost-effective engineering design. Bringing together materials mechanics and modeling, this book provides a complete guide to damage, fatigue and failure of composite materials. Early chapters focus on the underlying principles governing composite damage,...
Like any human language, С++ provides a way to express concepts. If successful, this medium of expression is significantly easier
and more flexible than the alternatives as problems grow larger and more complex.
However, you can't just look at С++ as a collection of features; some of the features make no sense in...
