This book focuses on controlling interfacial strength, a key problem in adhesion science. It examines adhesive joints of fibers and modified epoxy resins, analyzing the dependence of adhesive strength on modifier concentration and the mechanisms controlling strength synergism.
This user-friendly text uses illustrations and college math to analyze dynamic phenomena in everyday life. It presents dynamics as a unified framework, showing how simple concepts expand to complex design formulae for engineering structures.
Trussed Frames and Arches
This book details 72 statically determinate truss schemes, providing compact formulas for deflection. For engineers and theorists, these formulas are a reliable test for numerical calculations, are especially effective for large trusses, and warn of hidden dangerous properties.
To combat human error in complex cockpits, this book offers unique insights into building an onboard expert system. It details a system that supports the crew by detecting a hazard in real-time, identifying its source, and providing recommendations to pilots to avoid accidents.
Fatigue of Sintered Materials
This book details the theoretical background of Powder Metallurgy (PM) and the fatigue phenomenon of dynamically loaded sintered components. It analyses the influence of powder morphology and heat treatment on fatigue strength, and includes a fatigue analysis of sintered gears.
The Life of Cracks
To secure the strength of an engineering structure, one must understand the reasons and type of its potential failure. While mechanics has focused on strength, it is just as vital to understand fracture. This book provides essential knowledge and insights on this matter.
Selected Topics on Antenna Synthesis
This volume provides essential tools for developing antennas. It moves beyond classical synthesis to focus on synthesizing desired radiation patterns and optimizing phase patterns to eliminate shadowing effects, while strengthening the reader’s engineering style of thinking.
Large Dams in India
This book reviews large dams in India, analysing the proposed Tipaimukh dam project to reveal the strong connections between risk, technology, politics and environmentalism.
Collagen is vital to cell culture and tissue repair. This book describes the journey from pioneering 1950s research on collagen preparations to the massive implications for today’s tissue engineering and personalised medicine.
For aquatic scientists and students with little fluid dynamics exposure, this is a self-contained introduction to flows at small scales. It explains the effects of flow on processes like nutrient uptake, particle coagulation, and suspension feeding.
A guide to chemically modifying metal surfaces to produce hard, scratch-resistant, and corrosion-resistant surfaces, or surfaces that easily accept coatings. Includes processes for aluminum, magnesium, titanium, iron, copper, silver, and their alloys.
Not much literature exists on QR (Quick Response) Codes and their applications in the emerging digital society, making this foundational text very important to the field of technology. It spells out their “pros” and “cons”, providing potential challenges to their emergence.
Immobilizing ionic liquid (IL) in a polymer matrix is a low-cost method to produce ionogels—an excellent substitute for liquid electrolytes. This book provides a complete overview, from ionogel development to application, and covers characterization and transport properties.
Attitude Stabilization for CubeSat
This book explores CubeSat technology, focusing on the mathematical modeling of spacecraft attitude. It covers passive and active stabilization methods and the design of controllers like PID, LQR, and FLC to control CubeSat three-axis stabilization using magnetic coils.
Conventional theories about alloys are wrong. This book is the first to present exhaustive evidence that processes in alloys are determined by the chemical interaction between nearest atoms, radically changing our ability to consciously design new materials.
As economic crisis threatens archaeological heritage, this collection of papers offers solutions and new approaches to its protection. It examines global experiences to find sustainable ways of managing and preserving cultural assets for the future.
A new era of computing is being driven by Cloud Computing, Big Data, and the Internet of Things, transforming the future of business and society. This volume is a collection of research papers in Cloud Computing, Computer Gaming, and IoT.
