1001 Solved Engineering Fundamentals Problems, 3rd ed.（PDF）
Here's a wide-ranging collection of practice problems typical of the FE exam in every respect. All exam topics are covered and SI units are used. These multiple-choice questions are conveniently arranged by subject–so you can work through just the areas where you need practice, or all 1001 problems. A full, step-by-step solution is provided for [...]
Mobile WiMAX: A Systems Approach to Understanding IEEE 802.16m Radio Access Technology(PDF)
Presenting the new IEEE 802.16m standard, this is the first book to take a systematic, top-down approach to describing Mobile WiMAX and its next generation, giving detailed algorithmic descriptions together with explanations of the principles behind the operation of individual air-interface protocols and network components. Features: – A systematic and detailed, top-down approach to the [...]
Experiments for Digital Fundamentals(PDF)
Experiments in Digital Fundamentals, Tenth Edition, is designed to provide laboratory exercises that closely track topics in Digital Fundamentals, Tenth Edition, by Thomas L. Floyd. New to this edition is Experiment 26, which is a software tutorial for Quartus® II used for programming PLDs. The re quired software is a free download. Other changes include [...]
Principles of Microelectromechanical Systems(PDF)
Microelectromechanical Systems, or MEMS, is the technology of very small systems; it is found in everything from inkjet printers and cars to cell phones, digital cameras, and medical equipment. This book describes the principles of MEMS via a unified approach and closed-form solutions to micromechanical problems, which have been recently developed by the author and [...]
Megatrends for Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy(PDF)
The use of energy is being shaped by environmental issues including the fear of global warming. This has resulted in the development of renewable energy sources and more efficient building technology. Examining trends in energy efficiency, this book explores energy technologies and fuels, their prospects in a world with greenhouse gas restrictions. It looks at the technical and [...]
Hydraulic Design of Side Weirs (PDF)
Side weirs are used widely in order to divert flows from rivers, canals, sewers and reservoirs. However, the hydraulic behaviour of this type of weir is complex and difficult to predict accurately by simple methods. This invaluable book presents a new design procedure that was developed by analysing published data on the performance of side [...]
Remediation Engineering: Design Concepts(PDF)
In many cases, the application of in situ technologies evolved as a necessity from a cost perspective. However, the basic understanding of the mechanisms and theory behind these technologies was treated as a "black box." Although we have seen some tremendous successes in the application of remediation technologies over the past several years, we have [...]
Cam Design Handbook: Dynamics and Accuracy(PDF)
The cam, used to translate rotary motion into linear motion, is an integral part of many classes of machines, such as printing presses, textile machinery, gear-cutting machines, and screw machines. Emphasizing computer-aided design and manufacturing techniques, as well as sophisticated numerical control methods, this handbook allows engineers and technicians to utilize cutting edge design tools. [...]
Fuel Cells: Technologies for Fuel Processing(PDF)
This book covers all aspects of fuel processing: fundamental chemistry, different modes of reforming, catalysts, catalyst deactivation, fuel desulfurization, reaction engineering, novel reforming concepts, thermodynamics, heat and mass transfer issues, system design, recent research and development, etc., which makes it one single source of information for scientists and engineers. It serves as an excellent self-instruction book for [...]
Corrosion Monitoring in Nuclear Systems: Research and Applications (PDF)
Corrosion remains one of the key issues affecting the performance and availability of nuclear power plants. Therefore, reliable in-plant corrosion monitoring methods are essential both for the future operation of existing plants and to ensure the safety of future nuclear waste disposal systems. In two parts, this book was stimulated by a workshop organised by [...]
