Whilst most contemporary books in the aerospace propulsion field are dedicated primarily to gas turbine engines, there is often little or no coverage of other propulsion systems and devices such as propeller and helicopter rotors or detailed attention to rocket engines.
A systematic computer-aided approach provides a versatile setting for the control engineer to overcome the complications of controller design for highly nonlinear systems.
Saturated Switching Systems treats the problem of actuator saturation, inherent in all dynamical systems by using two approaches: positive invariance in which the controller is designed to work within a region of non-saturating linear behaviour; and saturation technique which allows saturation but guarantees asymptotic stability.
Any book with the words percutaneous and interventional is immediately identified as one that brings to its readers a distillation of a number of new and exciting techniques.
It has often surprised me that in order to study the subject of obstructive uropathy, it is necessary to search through various sections of several urological, surgical and radiological textbooks rather than turn to one work on the subject.
Intrauterine Growth Restriction: Aetiology and Management will be the first book to focus exclusively on this extremely important and common complication of pregnancy.
This book looks at the application of cascaded interferometers in both theoretical and practical contexts, particularly focusing on enhancing image contrast and facilitating medical diagnostics.
This extensive and expansive book focuses on three core areas of detail: the design, construction, and classification criteria for offshore bottom-load wind turbines; offshore floating-load wind turbines; and the global performance and integrated load analysis of offshore wind turbines.
This extensively revised second edition provides ten additional new chapters on the noise-relevant handling of input bias-current-compensated operational amplifiers.

This book illustrates the unique mechanical behaviors of tensegrity systems and their applications in mechanical metamaterials, space structures, and biomechanical models.
This book highlights the range of issues involved in designing interior spaces for acoustics-that is, ensuring that the sound of a space matches its function.
This book looks at the application of cascaded interferometers in both theoretical and practical contexts, particularly focusing on enhancing image contrast and facilitating medical diagnostics.
This book focuses on the Jet Transport (JT) technique and gives a systematic introduction on its theory development, algorithm implementation, and in particular, the applications in the field of astronautics including uncertainty propagation, filtering, as well as guidance and control.
This book focuses on general issues of deep-sea mining for seafloor mineral deposits, as well as the scientific, technical, legal and policy issues related to impacts on the water column.
This book provides a comprehensive introduction to recent advances in frequency domain nonlinear vibration features utilized for fault diagnosis in complex structures in the field of mechanical, civil, aeronautical and aerospace engineering.
