    Book SynopsisRobust Optimization is a method to improve robustness using low-cost variations of a single, conceptual design. The benefits of Robust Optimization include faster product development cycles; faster launch cycles; fewer manufacturing problems; fewer field problems; lower-cost, higher performing products and processes; and lower warranty costs. All these benefits can be realized if engineering and product development leadership of automotive and manufacturing organizations leverage the power of using Robust Optimization as a competitive weapon. Written by world renowned authors, Robust Optimization: World's Best Practices for Developing Winning Vehicles, is a ground breaking book whichintroduces the technical management strategy of Robust Optimization. The authors discuss what the strategy entails, 8 steps for Robust Optimization and Robust Assessment, and how to lead it in a technical organization with an implementation strategy.

    Book SynopsisClassical and Modern Approaches in the Theory of Mechanisms is a study of mechanisms in the broadest sense, covering the theoretical background of mechanisms, their structures and components, the planar and spatial analysis of mechanisms, motion transmission, and technical approaches to kinematics, mechanical systems, and machine dynamics. In addition to classical approaches, the book presents two new methods: the analytic-assisted method using Turbo Pascal calculation programs, and the graphic-assisted method, outlining the steps required for the development of graphic constructions using AutoCAD; the applications of these methods are illustrated with examples. Aimed at students of mechanical engineering, and engineers designing and developing mechanisms in their own fields, this book provides a useful overview of classical theories, and modern approaches to the practical and creative application of mechanisms, in seeking solutions to increasingly complex problems.Table of ContentsPreface xi About the Companion Website xiii 1 The Structure of Mechanisms 1

    Book SynopsisThis text explores formation control of vehicle systems and introduces three representative systems: space systems, aerial systems and robotic systems Formation Control of Multiple Autonomous Vehicle Systems offers a review of the core concepts of dynamics and control and examines the dynamics and control aspects of formation control in order to study a wide spectrum of dynamic vehicle systems such as spacecraft, unmanned aerial vehicles and robots. The text puts the focus on formation control that enables and stabilizes formation configuration, as well as formation reconfiguration of these vehicle systems. The authors develop a uniform paradigm of describing vehicle systems' dynamic behaviour that addresses both individual vehicle's motion and overall group's movement, as well as interactions between vehicles. The authors explain how the design of proper control techniques regulate the formation motion of these vehicles and the development of a system level decision-making strategyTable of ContentsPreface

    Book SynopsisThis book has been designed as a result of the author's teaching experiences; students in the courses came from various disciplines and it was very difficult to prescribe a suitable textbook, not because there are no books on these topics, but because they are either too exhaustive or very elementary. This book, therefore, includes only relevant topics in the fundamentals of the physics of semiconductors and of electrochemistry needed for understanding the intricacy of the subject of photovoltaic solar cells and photoelectrochemical (PEC) solar cells. The book provides the basic concepts of semiconductors, p:n junctions, PEC solar cells, electrochemistry of semiconductors, and photochromism. Researchers, engineers and students engaged in researching/teaching PEC cells or knowledge of our sun, its energy, and its distribution to the earth will find essential topics such as the physics of semiconductors, the electrochemistry of semiconductors, p:n junctions, Schottky junctions,Table of ContentsForeword xv Preface xvii 1 Our Universe and the Sun 1 1.1 Formation of the Universe 1 1.2 Formation of Stars 2 1.2.1 Formation of Energy in the Sun 3 1.2.2 Description of the Sun 6 1.2.3 Transfer of Solar Rays through the Ozone Layer 6 1.2.4 Transfer of Solar Layers through Other Layers 7 1.2.5 Effect of Position of the Sun vis-à-vis the Earth 8 1.2.6 Distribution of Solar Energy 8 1.2.7 Solar Intensity Calculation 8 1.3 Summary 12 Reference 12 2 Solar Energy and Its Applications 13 2.1 Introduction to a Semiconductor 14 2.2 Formation of a Compound 14 2.2.1 A Classical Approach 14 2.2.2 Why Call It a Band and Not a Level?

    Book SynopsisAn updated and expanded edition of the popular guide to basic continuum mechanics and computational techniques This updated third edition of the popular reference covers state-of-the-art computational techniques for basic continuum mechanics modeling of both small and large deformations. Approaches to developing complex models are described in detail, and numerous examples are presented demonstrating how computational algorithms can be developed using basic continuum mechanics approaches. The integration of geometry and analysis for the study of the motion and behaviors of materials under varying conditions is an increasingly popular approach in continuum mechanics, and absolute nodal coordinate formulation (ANCF) is rapidly emerging as the best way to achieve that integration. At the same time, simulation software is undergoing significant changes which will lead to the seamless fusion of CAD, finite element, and multibody system computer codes in one computatTable of ContentsPREFACE ix 1 INTRODUCTION 1 1.1 Matrices / 2 1.2 Vectors / 6 1.3 Summation Convention / 11 1.4 Cartesian Tensors / 12 1.5 Polar Decomposition Theorem / 21 1.6 D’Alembert’s Principle / 23 1.7 Virtual Work Principle / 29 1.8 Approximation Methods / 32 1.9 Discrete Equations / 34 1.10 Momentum, Work, and Energy / 37 1.11 Parameter Change and Coordinate Transformation / 39 Problems / 43 2 KINEMATICS 47 2.1 Motion Description / 48 2.2 Strain Components / 55 2.3 Other Deformation Measures / 60 2.4 Decomposition of Displacement / 62 2.5 Velocity and Acceleration / 64 2.6 Coordinate Transformation / 68 2.7 Objectivity / 74 2.8 Change of Volume and Area / 77 2.9 Continuity Equation / 81 2.10 Reynolds’ Transport Theorem / 82 2.11 Examples of Deformation / 84 2.12 Important Geometry Concepts / 92 Problems / 94 3 FORCES AND STRESSES 97 3.1 Equilibrium of Forces / 97 3.2 Transformation of Stresses / 100 3.3 Equations of Equilibrium / 100 3.4 Symmetry of the cauchy Stress Tensor / 102 3.5 Virtual Work of the Forces / 103 3.6 Deviatoric Stresses / 113 3.7 Stress Objectivity / 115 3.8 Energy Balance / 119 Problems / 120 4 CONSTITUTIVE EQUATIONS 123 4.1 Generalized Hooke’s Law / 124 4.2 Anisotropic Linearly Elastic Materials / 126 4.3 Material Symmetry / 127 4.4 Homogeneous Isotropic Material / 129 4.5 Principal Strain Invariants / 136 4.6 Special Material Models for Large Deformations / 137 4.7 Linear Viscoelasticity / 141 4.8 Nonlinear Viscoelasticity / 155 4.9 A Simple Viscoelastic Model for Isotropic Materials / 161 4.10 Fluid Constitutive Equations / 162 4.11 Navier–Stokes Equations / 164 Problems / 164 5 FINITE ELEMENT FORMULATION: LARGE-DEFORMATION, LARGE-ROTATION PROBLEM 167 5.1 Displacement Field / 169 5.2 Element Connectivity / 176 5.3 Inertia and Elastic Forces / 178 5.4 Equations of Motion / 180 5.5 Numerical Evaluation of The Elastic Forces / 188 5.6 Finite Elements and Geometry / 193 5.7 Two-Dimensional Euler–Bernoulli Beam Element / 199 5.8 Two-Dimensional Shear Deformable Beam Element / 203 5.9 Three-Dimensional Cable Element / 205 5.10 Three-Dimensional Beam Element / 206 5.11 Thin-Plate Element / 208 5.12 Higher-Order Plate Element / 210 5.13 Brick Element / 211 5.14 Element Performance / 212 5.15 Other Finite Element Formulations / 216 5.16 Updated Lagrangian and Eulerian Formulations / 218 5.17 Concluding Remarks / 221 Problems / 223 6 FINITE ELEMENT FORMULATION: SMALL-DEFORMATION, LARGE-ROTATION PROBLEM 225 6.1 Background / 226 6.2 Rotation and Angular Velocity / 229 6.3 Floating Frame of Reference (FFR) / 234 6.4 Intermediate Element Coordinate System / 236 6.5 Connectivity and Reference Conditions / 238 6.6 Kinematic Equations / 243 6.7 Formulation of The Inertia Forces / 245 6.8 Elastic Forces / 248 6.9 Equations of Motion / 250 6.10 Coordinate Reduction / 251 6.11 Integration of Finite Element and Multibody System Algorithms / 253 Problems / 258 7 COMPUTATIONAL GEOMETRY AND FINITE ELEMENT ANALYSIS 261 7.1 Geometry and Finite Element Method / 262 7.2 ANCF Geometry / 264 7.3 Bezier Geometry / 266 7.4 B-Spline Curve Representation / 267 7.5 Conversion of B-Spline Geometry to ANCF Geometry / 271 7.6 ANCF and B-Spline Surfaces / 273 7.7 Structural and Nonstructural Discontinuities / 275 8 PLASTICITY FORMULATIONS 279 8.1 One-Dimensional Problem / 281 8.2 Loading and Unloading Conditions / 282 8.3 Solution of the Plasticity Equations / 283 8.4 Generalization of The Plasticity Theory: Small Strains / 291 8.5 J2 Flow Theory with Isotropic/Kinematic Hardening / 298 8.6 Nonlinear Formulation for Hyperelastic–Plastic Materials / 312 8.7 Hyperelastic–Plastic J2 FLOW THEORY / 322 Problems / 326 REFERENCES 329 INDEX 339

    Book SynopsisWhen installed and operated properly, general purpose steam turbines are reliable and tend to be forgotten, i.e., out of sound and out of mind. But, they can be sleeping giants that can result in major headaches if ignored. Three real steam turbine undesirable consequences that immediately come to mind are: Injury and secondary damage due to an overspeed failure. Anoverspeed failureon a big steam or gas turbine is one of the most frightening of industrial accidents. The high cost of an extensive overhaul due to an undetected component failure. A major steam turbine repair can cost ten or more times that of a garden variety centrifugal pump repair. Costly production loses due an extended outage if the driven pump or compressor train is unspared. The value of lost production can quickly exceed repair costs. A major goal of this book is to provide readers with detailed operating procedure aimed at reducing these risks to minimal levels.

    Book SynopsisExamines the concept of aging process facilities and infrastructure in high hazard industries and highlights options for dealing with the problem while addressing safety issues This book explores the many ways in which process facilities, equipment, and infrastructure might deteriorate upon continuous exposure to operating and climatic conditions. It covers the functional and physical failure modes for various categories of equipment and discusses the many warning signs of deterioration. Dealing with Aging Process Facilities and Infrastructure also explains how to deal with equipment that may not be safe to operate. The book describes a risk-based strategy in which plant leaders and supervisors can make more informed decisions on aging situations and then communicate them to upper management effectively. Additionally, it discusses the dismantling and safe removal of facilities that are approaching their intended lifecycle or have passed it altogether.

    Book SynopsisA groundbreaking guide dedicated exclusively to the MCRT method in radiation heat transfer and applied optics The Monte Carlo Ray-Trace Method in Radiation Heat Transfer and Applied Optics offers the most modern and up-to-date approach to radiation heat transfer modelling and performance evaluation of optical instruments. The Monte Carlo ray-trace (MCRT) method is based on the statistically predictable behavior of entities, called rays, which describe the paths followed by energy bundles as they are emitted, reflected, scattered, refracted, diffracted and ultimately absorbed. The author a noted expert on the subject covers a wide variety of topics including the mathematics and statistics of ray tracing, the physics of thermal radiation, basic principles of geometrical and physical optics, radiant heat exchange among surfaces and within participating media, and the statistical evaluation of uncertainty of results obtained using the method.

    Book SynopsisA GUIDE TO THE FUNDAMENTAL THEORY AND PRACTICE OF OPTICAL COMMUNICATION Fiber Optic and Atmospheric Optical Communication offers a much needed guide to characterizing and overcoming the drawbacks associated with optical communication links that suffer from various types of fading when optical signals with information traverse these wireless (atmospheric) or wired (fiber optic) channels. The authorsnoted experts on the topicpresent material that aids in predicting the capacity, data rate, spectral efficiency, and bit-error-rate associated with a channel that experiences fading. They review modulation techniques and methods of coding and decoding that are useful when implementing communications systems. The book also discusses how to model the channels, including treating distortion due to the various fading phenomena. Light waves and their similarity to radio waves are explored, and the way light propagates through the atmosphere, through materials, and through the boundary between two materials is explained. This important book: Characterizes principal optical sources and detectors, including descriptions of their advantages and disadvantages, to show how to design systems from start to finishProvides a new method of predicting and dealing with the dispersive properties of fiber optic cables and other optical guiding structures in order to increase data stream capacityHighlights effects of material and multimode (multi-ray) dispersion during propagation of optical signals with data through fiber optic channelsPresents modulation techniques and methods of coding and decoding that are useful when implementing communications systems Written for professionals dealing with optical and electro-optical communications, Fiber Optic and Atmospheric Optical Communication explores the theory and practice of optical communication both when the optical signal is propagating through the atmosphere and when it is propagating through an optical fiber.Table of ContentsPreface xi Acknowledgments xv

    Book SynopsisThis book gives a comprehensive explanation of what governs the breakage of extruded materials, and what techniques are used to measure it. The breakage during impact aka collision is explained using basic laws of nature allowing readers to determine the handling severity of catalyst manufacturing equipment and the severity of entire plants. This information can then be used to improve on the architecture of existing plants and how to design grass-roots plants. The book begins with a summary of particle forming techniques in the particle technology industry. It covers extrusion technology in more detail since extrusion is one of the workhorses for particle manufacture. A section is also dedicated on how to describe transport and chemical reaction in such particulates for of course their final use. It presents the fundamentals of the study of breakage by relating basic laws in different fields (mechanics and physics) and this leads to two novel dimensionless groups that govern breakaTable of ContentsAbout the Author ix Acknowledgments xi Foreword xiii 1 Catalyst Preparation Techniques and Equipment 1 1.1 Introduction 1 1.2 Forming of Catalysts 4 1.3 Impregnation and Drying 12 1.4 Rotary Calcination 13 1.5 From the Laboratory to a Commercial Plant 29 Nomenclature 29 References 30 2 Extrusion Technology 35 2.1 Background 35 2.2 Rheology 36 2.3 Extrusion 47 Nomenclature 57 References 59 3 The Aspect Ratio of an Extruded Catalyst: An In-depth Study 61 3.1 General 61 3.2 Introduction to Catalyst Strength and Catalyst Breakage 63 3.3 Mechanical Strength of Catalysts 67 3.4 Experimental Measurement of Mechanical Strength 76 3.5 Breakage by Collision 88 3.6 Breakage by Stress in a Fixed Bed 129 3.7 Breakage in Contiguous Equipment 145 3.8 Statistical Methods Applied to Manufacturing Materials 158 Nomenclature 159 Greek Symbols 161 Subscripts 162 References 162 4 Steady-state Diffusion and First-order Reaction in Catalyst Networks 165 4.1 Introduction 165 4.2 Classic Continuum Approach 169 4.3 The Network Approach 171 Nomenclature 270 Greek Symbols 270 References 271 Appendix 4.1 Diffusion in a simple network 272 Appendix 4.2 Property of the semi-inverse 272 Appendix 4.3 Diffusion and reaction in a simple network 273 Appendix 4.4 Matrix properties for diffusion and reaction in a simple network 274 Appendix 4.5 Perturbation in a simple network 274 Appendix 4.6 A random variable 275 Appendix 4.7 Diffusion along a string of nodes 275 Appendix 4.8 Diffusion in a rectangular strip with an equal number of nodes 276 Appendix 4.9 Diffusion in a rectangular strip with an unequal number of nodes 277 Appendix 4.10 Diffusion and first-order reaction in a very deep network of 500 layers deep and five nodes per layer 279 Appendix 4.11 Diffusion and first-order reaction 280 Index 281

    Book SynopsisOCCUPATIONAL ERGONOMICS Develop a healthier connection between worker and work with this practical introduction The United States Bureau of Labor Statistics estimates that 34% of all workdays lost each year are the result of work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs). These disorders result from a mismatch between a worker, their working conditions, and the task they perform. Improperly designed tasks or equipment, insufficient downtime between shifts or tasks, or even simple sitting position can all produce WMSDs. The key insights into preventing these disorders are produced by ergonomics, the scientific study of human bodies as they relate to objects, systems, and environments, especially work environments. Occupational Ergonomics: A Practical Approach aims to supply an ergonomic toolkit for creating healthier relationships between workers' bodies and their work. Beginning with a set of foundational ergonomic principles, it then details multiple assessment techniques in ways easTable of ContentsPreface ix About the Companion Website x 1 Book Organization 1 2 The Basics of Ergonomics 5 3 Anthropometry 19 4 Office Ergonomics 101 5 Exercise Physiology 125 6 Elements of Ergonomics Programs 153 7 Biomechanics 185 8 Psychophysics 201 9 Hand Tools 227 10 Vibration 251 11 Industrial Workstation Design 275 12 Manual Materials Handling 297 13 Work-Related Musculoskeletal Disorders 307 14 How to Conduct an Ergonomic Assessment and Ergonomic Assessment Tools 345 15 Ergonomics in the Healthcare Industry 381 16 Case Studies 429 17 Return on Investment 461 18 Ergonomic Climate 493 Appendix A Guides 501 Appendix B Tools 513 Glossary 541 Index 545

    10 in stock

    Book SynopsisA compelling exploration of how social norms and commercial culture impact the safety of organizational operations In Impact of Societal Norms on Safety, Health, and the Environment: Case Studies in Society and Safety Culture, distinguished engineer Dr. Lee T. Ostrom delivers an authoritative treatment of the cultural, social, and human factors of safety cultures and issues in the workplace. The book offers readers compelling discussions of how those factors impact organizational operations and what contributes to making those impacts beneficial or detrimental. The author provides numerous real-world case studies from North America and Europe that are relevant to a global audience, highlighting the central message of the book: that an organization that views its safety culture as unimportant could be setting itself up for a significant workplace accident.

    Book SynopsisEndohedral Metallofullerenes: Fullerenes with Metal Inside presents a comprehensive survey of the current state of knowledge on endohedral metallofullerenes, from preparation to functionalization, reactivity and applications. Following a brief historical overview, the book describes methods for synthesis, extraction, separation and purification, and provides an insight into the molecular and crystal structures. Subsequent chapters discuss various categories of endohedral metallofullerenes based on the encapsulated species, including carbides, nitrides, sulphides, oxides, non-metal and non-IPR endohedral metallofullerenes, followed by scanning tunneling microscopy studies and the examination of electronic, vibrational, magnetic and optical properties. The book concludes with chapters addressing the chemical functionalization of endohedral metallofullerenes, and applications ranging from solar cells to biomedicine.Table of ContentsForeword ix Preface xi Personal Reflection – Nori Shinohara xiii 1 Introduction 1 1.1 The First Experimental Evidence of Metallofullerenes 1 1.2 Early Years of Metallofullerene Research 3 1.3 Conventional and IUPAC Nomenclature for Metallofullerenes 5 References 6 2 Synthesis, Extraction, and Purification 9 2.1 Synthesis of Endohedral Metallofullerenes 9 2.2 Solvent Extraction of Metallofullerenes from Primary Soot 14 2.3 Purification and Isolation by HPLC 15 2.4 Fast Separation and Purification with Lewis Acids 18 References 19 3 Molecular and Crystal Structures 23 3.1 Endohedral or Exohedral?
