 Electric Power Research Trends
The world is becoming increasingly electrified. For the foreseeable future, coal will
continue to be the dominant fuel used for electric power production. The low cost and
abundance of coal is one of the primary reasons for this. Electric power transmission, a
process in the delivery of electricity to consumers, is the bulk... | | Mechanisms in Organic Reactions
The wonderful complexity of organic chemistry involves thousands of
different reactions which allow the synthesis and interconversions of millions
of compounds, some of great complexity. The key to understanding
this vital branch of chemistry is the concept of the reaction mechanism.
This book starts with 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... |

Real-Time Embedded Systems: Optimization, Synthesis, and Networking
Embedded systems are electronic systems that include a microprocessor to
perform certain specific tasks. The microprocessor is embedded or hidden inside
these products. Embedded systems are ubiquitous. Every week millions
of tiny chips come out of factories like Freescale, Microchip, Philips, Texas
Instruments, and Mitsubishi,... | | | | Failed Stone
In the spring of 2002, I wrote a book entitled
Falling Glass: Problems and Solutions in
Contemporary Architecture. The research for
Falling Glass helped me understand how
glass failures could be avoided and enlightened
me as to which innovations were being
explored within the glass industry. Originally,
the book was... |

Audel HVAC Fundamentals, Air Conditioning, Heat Pumps and Distribution Systems
The purpose of this series is to provide the layman with an introduction
to the fundamentals of installing, servicing, troubleshooting,
and repairing the various types of equipment used in residential and
light-commercial heating, ventilating, and air conditioning (HVAC)
systems. Consequently, it was written not only for the... | | Electric Refractory Materials
This book provides a state-of-the-art overview of electric refractory materials as exotic materials
(i.e., metallic and semiconducting refractory materials) from fundamental properties to application
in a wide variety of electronics. The metallic ceramics or metalloids are the transition metal
carbides, nitrides, and diborides of... | | |
