Industrial Control Systems Design |
|
|
From Book News, Inc. For practicing engineers and academic researchers, Grimble (U. of Strathclyde, Glasgow) systematically surveys recent developments in control and estimation, emphasizing applications. He uses industrial problems as examples to demonstrate the use of transfer functions and state space methods for modelling and design. He spans fundamental state space and polynomial systems theory; introduces quantitative feedback theory; cites case studies from the steel, marine... >> |

Radiative Transfer in the Atmosphere and Ocean (Cambridge Atmospheric and Space Science Series) |
|
|
From Book News, Inc. A textbook for a graduate course based on the now accepted notion that the radiation that enters, or is emitted by, the ocean encounters the same basic processes of scattering and absorption as those involved in atmospheric radiation, and that there are no inherent differences between the optical properties of atmospheric and aqueous media. It emphasizes the derivation, formulation and solution of the radiative transfer equation, using examples and problems and... >> |

Statistical Mechanics : A Concise Introduction for Chemists |
|
|
From Book News, Inc. Widom (chemistry, Cornell U.) explains the chemistry uses of the theoretical apparatus used to study the properties systems made up of many atoms and molecules and relate those properties to microscopic constitutions. After explaining the derivation of common statistical thermodynamics formulas, chapters discuss applications such as the ideal gas, chemical equilibrium constants from partition functions, the ideal harmonic solid, and the statistical mechanical b... >> |
