It is the intent of this handbook to provide all the basic information required to select propellers for almost every ordinary type of boat, from a sailing auxiliary, to a high speed powerboat, to a trawler, and so on. If you area interested in one particular type of vessel or application, it is not necessary to study every section of every chapter. The best approach is to skim through the enti…
Surface Mount Technology has had a profound influence on the electronics industry, and has led to the use of new materials, techniques and manufacturing processes. Since the first edition of this book was written, electronic assemblies have continued to become still smaller and more complex, while soldering still remains the dominant connecting technique. This is a comprehensive guide to the cu…
This book is an adventure into the computer analysis of three dimensional composite structures using the finite element method (FEM). The text advances gradually from the analysis of simple beams to arbitrary anisotropic and composite plates and shells; it treats both linear and nonlinear behavior. Once the basic philosophy of the method is understood, the reader may expand its application and…
