The chief objective of Electric Machinery continues to be to build a strong foundation in the basic principles of electromechanics and electric machinery. Through all of its editions, the emphasis of Electric Machinery has been on both physical insight and analytical techniques. Mastery of the material covered will provide both the basis for understanding many real-world electric-machinery applications as well as the foundation for proceeding on to more advanced courses in electric machinery design and control. |

As you may have guessed from the title, this book is about GPS (the satellite-based Global Positioning System) and maps; digital maps to be exact. I remember back in 1989 when Magellan introduced the first handheld GPS receiver, the NAV 1000. (Don’t worry. This isn’t going to be one of those “I used to walk 20 miles to school in the snow when I was your age,” stories.) The NAV 1000 was the size of a brick, and weighed a little less than two pounds. It was single channel receiver, could only track four satellites, and just supported latitude and longitude coordinates. It could save 100 waypoints and you could have a single route with up to 10 waypoints. It cost $2,500. Fast forward to the present. Now I can go down to my neighborhood sporting goods store and buy a GPS receiver smaller than a small cell phone. It weighs a couple of ounces, can track up to 12 satellites, and on a good day tells me exactly where I’m located to within about 10 feet; and in several different coordinate systems by the way. It supports 500 waypoints and 20 routes, with 125 waypoints apiece. Best of all it costs around $100. |

The collapse of Enron Corp. in the fall of 2001 had a peculiar side effect: accounting became front page news. For the next year, accounting fraud at a long series of Fortune 500 companies made headlines. The worst cases led to spectacular bankruptcies, mass layoffs, and criminal prosecutions. Many other companies remained intact, but paid millions of dollars to settle charges that their books did not correspond to financial reality. The economic costs of the corporate scandals were substantial: trillions of dollars in shareholder wealth lost and a climate of uncertainty that may have suppressed business investment and hiring after the 2001 recession ended. The barriers to corporate fraud set in place after the Great Depression had clearly failed to protect public investors and were put under close scrutiny. Congress responded by passing the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, strengthening regulation of auditors, directors, and corporate executives and increasing criminal penalties for fraud. |

In Oracle9i RMAN Backup & Recovery, we posed the following question in this same space: how can I balance availability with recoverability? We hoped to answer that question with a full coverage of Oracle’s backup and recovery solution, and the number of copies sold tells us that many people liked the answer. We introduced Oracle9i RMAN Backup & Recovery at a time when people were really starting to adopt RMAN as a backup and recovery solution. With the release of Oracle Database 10g RMAN Backup & Recovery, we found an audience of people more familiar with RMAN. At the same time, this audience was asking more complex questions, and trying to keep up with all the new features offered with Oracle Database 10g. With databases growing ever faster, and mean-time-to-recovery becoming the buzzword of the day, RMAN became an indispensable tool in the DBA’s day-to-day toolkit. |

Despite the length of time it has been around, its importance, and vast amounts of research, combustion is still far from being completely understood. Industrial applications of combustion add environmental, cost, and fuel consumption issues to its fundamental complexity, and the process and power generation industries in particular present their own unique challenges The John Zink Combustion Handbook is dedicated to improving that understanding and meeting those challenges. Under the leadership of Charles E. Baukal, Jr., top combustion engineers and technologists from the world-renowned John Zink Company have joined forces to bring you this landmark work— a synthesis of the multi-disciplinary background that will broaden your understanding, hone your skills, and further advance the art and science of industrial combustion. Background—The fundamentals of thermodynamics, chemical kinetics, fluid mechanics, and transport processes of combustion Equipment—Design, maintenance, and troubleshooting |

Information about a material can be gathered from its interaction with electromagnetic waves. The information may be stored in the amplitude, the phase, the polarisation, the angular distribution of energy transportation or the spectral characteristics. When retrieved from the wave, certain material properties may thus be determined indirectly. Compared on the one hand to direct material analysis, an indirect method requires calibration and is prone to interference from undesired sources. On the other hand, however, it permits the determination of features inaccessible by direct methods, such as non-destructive material interrogation, high measurement speed, or deep penetration depth. However, being a physical method, the use of electromagnetic waves is still handicapped by the lack of acceptance by many chemists, who are used to applying direct approaches. |

This book grew out of courses given at the University of Wales Swansea to second- and third-year undergraduates. It is designed to provide enough material for a one-year course and splits naturally into a preliminary topology course and a follow-on course in algebraic topology. It is often said that topology is a subject which is poorly served for textbooks, and when preparing the lecture courses I found no book that was both accessible to our undergraduates and relevant to current research in the field. This book is an attempt to fill that gap. It is generally accepted that a oneyear course on topology is not long enough to take a student to a level where she or he can begin to do research, but I have tried to achieve that as nearly as possible. |

What comprises Europe today, both geographically and culturally? Geographically, it is popularly understood to be the European continent/peninsula all the way to the Ural Mountains, down the Ural River and then to the Caspian Sea (Wikipedia). Ukraine is one of the countries situated in the eastern part of Europe. In discussing contemporary Ukraine in the present book, we refer to the newly independent, post-Soviet country that is now trying to reaffirm its identity. Many countries in Europe found or built their own national identities over the past several hundred years. This concerned not only each country’s identity as a nation but also its geographic and cultural mapping. History occasionally changes the fates of countries and individuals to such a degree that it almost seems to dislocate them. Until the early twentieth century, mapping Ukraine on the European continent was not an issue. |

Vanadium is named after Vanadis, the most aristocratic of Norse goddesses, who symbolises beauty and fertility - essential features of vanadium chemistry. It is a ubiquitous trace element, with a surprising range of biological functions. In Bioinorganic Vanadium Chemistry, Dieter Rehder addresses the major aspects of vanadium chemistry related to living organisms and the mutual impact between biological and inorganic vanadium chemistry. |
