Concepts, procedures and programs described in this book make it possible for readers to solve both simple and complex equilibria problems quickly and easily and to visualize results in both numerical and graphical forms. The reader can then spend more time thinking about what the results mean in terms of the larger problem being worked on.

This well received textbook develops the concept of chemical reaction engineering in a systematic manner, beginning with homogeneous reactors and gradually moving toward more complicated heterogeneous systems. Reactor technology is presented in an illustrative manner with many practical and varied applications included.
This book provides chemists with insight on pyrotechnics and explosives. It emphasizes basic chemical principles and practical, hands-on knowledge in the preparation of energetic materials. The updated third edition discusses chemical and pyrotechnic principles, components of high-energy materials, elements of ignition, propagation, and sensitivity.
NSTI's clean and nanotechnology conferences have built a tradition of being the most prestigious forum in the world for leading scientists in the field, and Cleantech 2010 is no exception. Top contributors offer an up-to-date global perspective on the latest developments in clean technology. More than mere proceedings, these volumes cut across every scientific and engineering discipline to provide the most complete record of current accomplishments in this burgeoning area. Information from past conferences has been compiled into authoritative and comprehensive compendiums and made available (along with pricing information) here on our site. Contents of the proceedings for this year's conference and expo will be forthcoming. Cleantech is available in print and on a
Remarkable developments in the spectroscopy field regarding ultrashort pulse generation have led to the possibility of producing light pulses ranging from 50 to5 fs and frequency tunable from the near infrared to the ultraviolet range. Such pulses enable us to follow the coupling of vibrational motion to the electronic transitions in molecules and solids in real time. Detailing these advanced developments, as well as the fundamental methods and tools of vibrational spectroscopy, Coherent Vibrational Dynamics providesresearchers and students with a uniquely comprehensive resource. With the contributions of pioneering scientists, this seminal volume -
* Outlines the principles and tools used on time-domain vibrational spectroscopy and provides a general
A pictorial histopathology atlas that features annotations on tuberculosis. It covers the manifestations of induced or acquired pulmonary tuberculosis in one of six animal species (models) - human, non-human primate, rabbit, guinea pig, rat, and mouse. It also provides low, medium, and high power microscopy views of lung tissue.
The book deals with development of comprehensive computational models for simulating underground coal gasification (UCG). It starts with an introduction to the UCG process and discuss known process models with relative merits and limitations of the modeling approaches are highlighted and compared.
This book proposes a novel method for plate and shell governing equations based on isogeometric analysis. It outlines a new Recoverable Condensation Formulation: a method to condense the static and dynamic equilibrium equations of plate and shell elements consistently and to revert back to the original governing equations whenever necessary.
Surveys recent advances in conducting polymers and their composites. Chapters address synthetic approaches, and applications in all types of electrochemical energy storage devices and next-generation devices. Evaluates the execution of these materials as electrodes in electrochemical power sources.
Focusing on Constructability as a project management tool and its effectiveness, book develops a positive and strong relationship between constructability and sustainability, thus, promoting the application of the project management systems and guidelines for sustainable development, in a systematic manner.
The book presents new results on matrices, on polynomial matrices, on matrix polynomials and on the new compact, simple and elegant calculus that enabled the generalization of the transfer function matrix concept and of the state concept, the proofs of the new observability, controllability and tracking condtions.

Focuses on the cosmological implications of the gauge theories of particle physics and of string theory. This book examines relics of early phase transitions, generic relics, and supersymmetric particles. It studies supersymmetric theory, supergravity theory, and the constraints on the underlying field theory of the universe's inflationary era.
CTPED and Traditional Security Countermeasures: 150 Things You Should Know is a handy reference for both seasoned professionals and those just starting out in security and law enforcement. Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) is a foundational concept to physical security and can be incorporated widely in security policies, plans, and procedures. It has proven effective over the many years insofar as building and campus design, security architecture, and creating an overall security culture in any workplace.
The authors have collected a broad array of topics together, garnered through their many years of real-world experience in the field. Security solutions that address a wide range of physical security challenges are presented in an easy to
The book identifies actions that improve higher education outcomes including lower tuition costs, better access for student from low and middle income homes, faster throughput, fewer dropouts, and better job opportunities for graduates. It links a real and implementable solution to the underlying problems and their root causes.
From weather-proof tires and artificial hearts to the o-rings and valve seals that enable successful space exploration, rubber is an indispensable component of modern civilization. Stiff competition and stringent application requirements foster continuous challenges requiring manufacturers to fund ever-expanding research projects. However, this vast and growing body of knowledge is jealously guarded by the rubber companies and not published in the open literature, leaving the novice or general researcher forced, as it were, to re-invent the wheel.
Drawing on the expertise of leading researchers in their fields, Current Topics in Elastomers Research provides the first comprehensive overview of rubber research activities from around the world. Divided into seven
Presents a description of a framework and techniques for modelling structure (in particular dams and dikes) failure events as well as a proposal to several novel approaches for risk analysis and assessment by numerical, statistical and constrained based methods in particular to the problems of breach modelling and flood water mitigation.
There is a dearth of resources for data scientists, statisticians, etc., wishing to learn about Julia. Using well known data science methods, this book will both motivate the reader and assuage any unease. The book will get readers up to speed on key features of the Julia language and illustrate some of its advantages for data science work.
Data-driven analytics is enjoying unprecedented popularity among oil and gas professionals. Many reservoir engineering problems associated with geological storage of CO2 require the development of numerical reservoir simulation models. This book is the first to examine the contribution of artificial intelligence and machine learning in data-driven analytics of fluid flow in porous environments, including saline aquifers and depleted gas and oil reservoirs. Drawing from actual case studies, this book demonstrates how smart proxy models can be developed for complex numerical reservoir simulation models. Smart proxy incorporates pattern recognition capabilities of artificial intelligence and machine learning to build smart models that learn the intricacies of physical,
