With contributions from noted laboratory scientists, professors, and engineers, Hydrogen Energy and Vehicle Systems presents a new comprehensive approach for applying hydrogen-based technologies to the transportation and electric power generation sectors.
Refineries face persistent challenges in improving energy efficiency, ensuring crude availability, and implementing process safety, with excessive energy consumption being particularly difficult to address.
Spawned by growing interest in ultrasonic technology and new developments in ultrasonic melt processing, the Second Edition of Ultrasonic Treatment of Light Alloy Melts discusses use of ultrasonic melt treatment in direct-chill casting, shape casting, rapid solidification, zone refining, and more, exploring the effects of power ultrasound on melt degassing, filtration, and refinement in aluminum and magnesium alloys.
Better Understand the Relationship between Powertrain System Design and Its Control IntegrationWhile powertrain system design and its control integration are traditionally divided into two different functional groups, a growing trend introduces the integration of more electronics (sensors, actuators, and controls) into the powertrain system.
Anyone who has experience with a car, bicycle, motorcycle, or train knows that the dynamic behavior of different types of vehicles and even different vehicles of the same class varies significantly.
Practical Lubrication for Industrial Facilities - Fourth Edition, is a blueprint manual for any person, department, or corporation wanting to acquire practical working knowledge in the field of industrial lubrication study and application.
Concerns over an unstable energy supply and the adverse environmental impact of carbonaceous fuels have triggered considerable efforts worldwide to find carbon-free or low-carbon alternatives to conventional fossil fuels.
A clear, concise discussion of today's hottest topics in climate change, including adapting to climate change and geo-engineering to mitigate the effects of change, Engineering Response to Climate Change, Second Edition takes on the tough questions of what to do and offers real solutions to the practical problems caused by radical changes in the Earth's climate.
When confronted with a fire protection problem, building management is often desperately short on information and know-how in this critical component of protection for their own facility.
Practical Lubrication for Industrial Facilities - Fourth Edition, is a blueprint manual for any person, department, or corporation wanting to acquire practical working knowledge in the field of industrial lubrication study and application.
Research in any discipline involves understanding the basic principles and concepts used in research and also understanding the existing practices that are prevalent when it comes to gathering and analyzing data.

This book grew out of the senior level lecture course I teach at Delft Univer- sity and which I have taught in recent years at Eindhoven University and the University of Utrecht.
This volume constitutes the Proceedings of the First International Conference on Computational Fluid Dynamics, held at the Kyoto Research Park, Kyoto, Japan on 10-14 July, 2000.
This collection on Mechanics of Generalized Continua - from Micromechanical Basics to Engineering Applications"e; brings together leading scientists in this field from France, Russian Federation, and Germany.
Das umfassende Handbuch richtet sich an Verfahrensingenieure und Chemiker, die die Vorgänge in chemisch-verfahrenstechnischen Apparaten hintergründig und ursächlich verstehen wollen.
This book gives an account of state-of-the-art investigations of properties and processes at solid-liquid interfaces with the same precision as it is standard in ultrahigh vacuum based surface science.
As one of the oldest natural sciences, mechanics occupies a certain pioneering role in determining the development of exact sciences through its interaction with mathematics.
A "e;Sonderforschungsbereich"e; (SFB) is a programme of the "e;Deutsche For- schungsgemeinschaft"e; to financially support a concentrated research effort of a number of scientists located principally at one University, Research La- boratory or a number of these situated in close proximity to one another so that active interaction among individual scientists is easily possible.
Hydronamics of Explosion presents the research results for the problems of underwater explosions and contains a detailed analysis of the structure and the parameters of the wave fields generated by explosions of cord and spiral charges, a description of the formation mechanisms for a wide range of cumulative flows at underwater explosions near the free surface, and the relevant mathematical models.
Engineering Damage Mechanics is deliberately oriented toward applications of Continuum Damage Mechanics to failures of mechanical and civil engineering components in ductile, creep, fatigue and brittle conditions depending upon the thermomechanical loading and the materials: metals and alloys, polymers, elastomers, composites, concretes.
