As solar energy becomes increasingly more important in all of our lives, it is more important to learn how it works and how it can be implemented. This book is the perfect primer for the engineer, scientist, and layperson alike, for learning about the practical applications of solar energy technology and how it is being used today to heat homes, light city streets, and provide power worldwide.
Drug Efficacy, Safety, and Biologics Discovery: Emerging Technologies and Tools covers key emerging technologies in pharmaceutical R & D and how they have substantially impacted (or are currently impacting) drug discovery. The cross-disciplinary collaborations implicit in integrating these technologies with drug discovery operations will fuel the engine for future innovations. This book cuts acros…
This two-volume book provides an overview of physical techniques used to characterize the structure of solid materials, on the one hand, and to investigate the reactivity of their surface, on the other. Therefore this book is a must-have for anyone working in fields related to surface reactivity. Among the latter, and because of its most important industrial impact, catalysis has been used as the …
Механика адресована физикам и фантастам, моделирующим машины для космоплавания. Возможно вы создаете приборы развертки телевизионных строк текущей энергии спутниковой пластины? Я хочу вам помочь фантастическими размышлениями.
Уважаемый читатель! По многочисленным просьбам радиомехаников мы решили напечатать книгу совершенно нового направления. В этой книге не будет теоретических рассуждений по ремонту телевизоров. Мы представляем Вам ТОЛЬКО практический материал, накопленный телемастером в течение нескольких лет. Впервые телемастер делится с Вами не только «заковыристыми» дефектами, но и методикой по их поиску! Для нач…
В книге рассказывается о принципах построения и логике работы последовательной шины обмена данными Inter-Integrated Circuit Bus (I2C), разработанной фирмой Philips. Приводятся сведения о микросхемах, имеющих интерфейс I2C, а также несложные конструкции на их основе, доступные для повторения радиолюбителями. Книга может быть полезна радиолюбителям, инженерам, студентам радиотехнических специальност…
This reference book provides a fully integrated novel approach to the development of high-power, single-transverse mode, edge-emitting diode lasers by addressing the complementary topics of device engineering, reliability engineering and device diagnostics in the same book, and thus closes the gap in the current book literature. Diode laser fundamentals are discussed, followed by an elaborate disc…
This handbook provides a framework for understanding how to characterize plastic manufacturing processes for use in troubleshooting problems. The 21 chapters are authored by well-known and experienced engineers who have specialized knowledge about the processes covered in this practical guide. From the Preface: “In every chapter, the process is described and the most common problems are discussed …
The Latest Applications For Cellmechanism Research in Drug Discovery Designed to connect research on cell mechanisms with the drug discovery process, Therapeutic Targets: Modulation, Inhibition, and Activation introduces readers to a range of new concepts and novel approaches to drug screening and therapeutic drug targeting to help inform future avenues of drug research. Highly topical, this acces…
The modern quantity surveyor (QS) plays a central role in the management of construction projects, although the exact nature of the role depends on who employs the QS. The Professional Quantity Surveyor engaged by the client and the Contractor's Quantity Surveyor have different roles to play in any construction project, with the contractor's QS role extending beyond measurement to the day-to-day r…
A practical, authoritative guide to the assessment of wind resources for utility-scale wind projects—authored by a team of experts from a leading renewable energy consultancy The successful development of wind energy projects depends on an accurate assessment of where, how often, and how strongly the wind blows. A mistake in this stage of evaluation can cause severe financial losses and missed opp…
This book introduces the design concept of Eurocode 3 for steel structures in building construction, and their practical application. It especially comments on the regulations of the british National Annexes. Following a discussion of the basis of design, including the limit state approach, the material standards and their use are detailed. The fundamentals of structural analysis and modeling are …
