Computational Fluid Dynamics in Practice explores the current and future developments in CFD, with the authors detailing advanced applications and case studies to demonstrate successes, illustrate the limitations, and identify methods for good practice. Designers, engineers, and researchers working in this field of fluid mechanics will...

Software engineering is one of the most knowledge intensive jobs. Thus, having a good knowledge management (KM) strategy in these organisations is very important. This book examines software processes from a knowledge perspective flow, in order to identify the particular knowledge needs of such processes to then be in a better position for...

The syllabus of Mechanical Science-II as designed by WBUT explains the important Chapters of Thermodynamics and Fluid Mechanics. The book covers all the topics of the syllabus in a well explained and easily understandable manner to the students. In addition to this, many numerical examples have been worked out for each chapter. Multiple...

Celebrating nearly 100 years as The Bible of the Mechanical Industries , the 28th edition brings together volumes of knowledge, information and data gathered, revised and improved upon from experts throughout the mechanical industries. Extraordinarily comprehensive yet easy to use since it premiered, Machinery s Handbook provides mechanical...

Computational optimization methods have matured over the last few years due to extensive research by applied mathematicians and engineers. These methods have been applied to many practical applications. Several general-purpose optimization programs and programs for specific engineering applications have become available to solve particular...

This book is a guide to the features of Microsoft Excel, one of the key products of the Microsoft Office suite. Step-by-step instructions and visual aides help the reader easily learn the software. PICTURE YOURSELF LEARNING MICROSOFT EXCEL 2010 teaches the latest version of Microsoft Excel by following along in a four-color, highly visual...

It is hoped that this book will serve both as a text in time-series analysis and signal processing and as a reference book for research workers and practitioners. Timeseries analysis and signal processing are two subjects which ought to be treated as one; and they are the concern of a wide range of applied disciplines including statistics,...

This book is an introduction to the use of geometric partial differential equations (PDEs) in image processing and computer vision. This relatively new research area brings a number of new concepts into the field, providing, among other things, a very fundamental and formal approach to image processing. State-of-the-art practical results in...

This textbook introduces sparse and redundant representations with a focus on applications in signal and image processing. The theoretical and numerical foundations are tackled before the applications are discussed. Mathematical modeling for signal sources is discussed along with how to use the proper model for tasks such as denoising,...

This book concerns the practical solution of Partial Differential Equations (PDE). It reflects an interdisciplinary approach to problems occurring in natural Environmental Phenomena: the hydrosphere, atmosphere, cryosphere, lithosphere, biosphere and ionosphere. It assumes the reader has gained some intuitive knowledge of their solution...
