Modeling, Sensing and Control of Gas Metal Arc Welding

Elsevier Limited, 2003

Hardbound. Arc welding is one of the key processes in industrial manufacturing, with welders using two types of processes - gas metal arc welding (GMAW) and gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW). This new book provides a survey-oriented account of the modeling, sensing, and automatic control of the GMAW process. Researchers are presented with the most...

Principles of Space Instrument Design (Cambridge Aerospace Series)

Cambridge University Press, 1998

Scientific observations from space require instruments which can operate in the orbital environment. The skills needed to design such special instruments span many disciplines. This book aims to bring together the elements of the design process. It is, first, a manual for the newly graduated engineer or physicist involved with the design of...

Solid-State Mid-Infrared Laser Sources (Topics in Applied Physics)

Springer, 2003

According to the Encyclopaedia Britannica, the "middle infrared" region covers the portion of the electromagnetic spectrum between 400 and 4000 wave numbers, which corresponds to the wavelength range 2.5-25 gin. This range is of particular interest for many applications, especially for spectroscopy, since the electromagnetic frequencies...

Partial Differential Equations: Modelling and Numerical Simulation (Computational Methods in Applied Sciences)

Springer, 2008

This book is dedicated to Olivier Pironneau.

For more than 250 years partial differential equations have been clearly the most important tool available to mankind in order to understand a large variety of phenomena, natural at first and then those originating from human activity and technological development. Mechanics, physics and their...

Hybrid CMOS Single-Electron-Transistor Device And Circuit Design

Artech House Publishers, 2006

CMOS (complementary metal oxide semiconductor) is a widely accepted and utilized technology among electrical engineers involved with circuit design. SET (single electron transistor) technology has recently gained significant attention, because it can be combined with CMOSs to improve overall performance of integrated circuits - reducing power...

Lasers in the Preservation of Cultural Heritage: Principles and Applications (Optics and Optoelectronics)

Taylor & Francis, 2006

The book … describes how laser parameters associated with cleaning are chosen and the physics involved in various surface ablation processes. Key conservation practices are also addressed, such as removal of black encrustation from stone, varnish from paintings, and the laser cleaning of metals and paper. It details the use and benefit of...

Fiber Based Dispersion Compensation (Optical and Fiber Communications Reports)

Springer, 2007

A pulse of light spreads in time as it propagates in a fiber due to the physical phenomenon called dispersion. While dispersion can be deleterious in optical communications systems, it can also be exploited to manage the temporal and spectral shapes of pulses and their interactions with other pulses. Much of dispersion control is realized in...

Concentrator Photovoltaics (Springer Series in Optical Sciences)

Springer, 2007

Photovoltaic solar-energy conversion is one of the most promising technologies for generating renewable energy, and conversion of concentrated sunlight can lead to reduced cost for solar electricity. In fact, photovoltaic conversion of concentrated sunlight insures an efficient and cost-effective sustainable power resource. This book gives an...

Scaling Limits in Statistical Mechanics and Microstructures in Continuum Mechanics (Theoretical and Mathematical Physics)

Springer, 2008

Collective behavior in systems with many components, blow-ups with emergence of microstructures are proofs of the double, continuum and atomistic, nature of macroscopic systems, an issue which has always intrigued scientists and philosophers. Modern technologies have made the question more actual and concrete with recent, remarkable progresses also...

The Magnetocaloric Effect and its Applications (Series in Condensed Matter Physics)

Taylor & Francis, 2003

This book is a very comprehensive overview. It is interesting both for the experienced researcher and also for students just entering the field. Theory, experimental techniques, and literature are widely covered.
- Professor Bruck Ekkes

The magnetocaloric effect describes the change in temperature of a magnetic material...

Signals and Images: Contributions and Contradictions about High Dilution Research

Springer, 2008

The GIRI Groupe International de Recherche sur lÂ´InfinitÃ©simal was created in 1986 with the aim to gather researchers toward the high dilution questions, such as hormesis, isopathy, homeopathy and the phenomenological and conceptual differences among them. This is the only international scientific society organised...

Collaborative Geographic Information Systems

Idea Group Publishing, 2006

Many advances in the integration of group spatial modeling, geographic information systems (GIS), and the Internet have occurred in recent years; however, there is a lack of materials to highlight the transdisciplinary characteristics and impacts of this convergence while providing a uniform and consistent treatment of this expanding field of...
