    • Composite Materials 

      Chawla, Krishan K. (Springer, 2012)
      Since the publication of the second edition of this book, there has been a spate of activity in the field of composites, in the academia as well as in the industry. The industrial activity, in particular, has been led by ...
    • Transmission Electron Microscopy 

      Williams, David B.; Carter, C. Barry (Springer, 2009)
      How is this book different from the many other TEM books? It has several unique features but what we think distinguishes it from all other such books is that it is truly a textbook. We wrote it to be read by, and taught ...
    • Introduction to Embedded Systems 

      Jiménez, Manuel; Palomera, Rogelio; Couvertier, Isidoro (Springer, 2014)
      The first years of the decade of 1970 witnessed the development of the first microprocessor designs in the history of computing. Two remarkable events were the development of the 4004, the first commercial, single-chip ...
    • Search Methodologies 

      Burke, Edmund K.; Kendall, Graham (Springer, 2014)
      We first had the idea for this book over 3 years ago. It grew out of a one-day workshop entitled Introductory Tutorials in Search, Optimization and Decision Support Methodologies (INTROS), which was held in Nottingham ...
    • Linear Programming 

      Vanderbei, Robert J. (Springer, 2014)
      This book is about constrained optimization. It begins with a thorough treatment of linear programming and proceeds to convex analysis, network flows, integer programming, quadratic programming, and convex optimization. ...
    • Chemical and Bioprocess Engineering 

      Simpson, Ricardo; Sastry, Sudhir K. (Springer, 2013)
      No introductory chemical engineering book covers all the branches related to chemical engineering in the twenty-first century. In addition, existing books, independent of content, generally cover only chemical engineering ...
    • Engineering Flow and Heat Exchange 

      Levenspiel, Octave (Springer, 2014)
      This volume presents an overview of fluid flow and heat exchange. In the broad sense, fluids are materials that are able to flow under the right conditions. These include all sorts of things: pipeline gases, coal slurries, ...
    • Physics of Semiconductor Devices 

      Rudan, Massimo (Springer, 2015)
      This volume originates from the lectures on Solid-State Electronics and Microelectronics that I have been giving since 1978 at the School of Engineering of the University of Bologna. Its scope is to provide the reader ...
    • Additive Manufacturing Technologies 

      Gibson, Ian; Rosen, David; Stucker, Brent (Springer, 2015)
      Thank you for taking the time to read this book on Additive Manufacturing (AM). We hope you benefit from the time and effort it has taken putting it together and that you think it was a worthwhile undertaking. It all ...
    • Robotics 

      Siciliano, Bruno; Sciavicco, Lorenzo; Villani, Luigi; Oriolo, Giuseppe (Springer, 2010)
      In the last 25 years, the field of robotics has stimulated an increasing interest in a wide number of scholars, and thus literature has been conspicuous, both in terms of textbooks and monographs, and in terms of specialized ...
    • QUICK START GUIDE TO VHDL 

      LaMeres, Brock J. (Springer, 2019)
      The classical digital design approach (i.e., manual synthesis and minimization of logic) quickly becomes impractical as systems become more complex. This is the motivation for the modern digital design flow, which uses ...
    • Quick Start Guide to Verilog 

      LaMeres, Brock J. (Springer, 2019)
      The classical digital design approach (i.e., manual synthesis and minimization of logic) quickly becomes impractical as systems become more complex. This is the motivation for the modern digital design flow, which uses ...
    • Introduction to Logic Circuits & Logic Design with VHDL 

      LaMeres, Brock J. (Springer, 2019)
      The overall goal of this book is to fill a void that has appeared in the instruction of digital circuits over the past decade due to the rapid abstraction of system design. Up until the mid-1980s, digital circuits were ...
    • INTRODUCTION TO LOGIC CIRCUITS & LOGIC DESIGN WITH VERILOG 

      LaMeres, Brock J. (Springer, 2019)
      The overall goal of this book is to fill a void that has appeared in the instruction of digital circuits over the past decade due to the rapid abstraction of system design. Up until the mid-1980s, digital circuits were ...
    • Fundamentals of Robotic Mechanical Systems 

      Angeles, Jorge (Springer, 2014)
      The aim of the Fourth Edition is the same as that of the past editions: to provide the reader with the tools needed to better understand the fundamental concepts behind the design, analysis, control, and programming of ...
    • Engineering Electromagnetics 

      Ida, Nathan (Springer, 2015)
      One of the main difficulties in teaching electromagnetic fields is the perception on the part of many students that electromagnetics is essentially a supportive topic. They are told that they need to study electromagnetics ...
    • Nanotechnology: Principles and Practices 

      Kulkarni, Sulabha K. (Springer, 2015)
      Over the past 15 years, the scientific world has witnessed a dramatic interest in nanotechnology with research contributions from physicists, chemists, biologists as well as scientists working in the medical, agricultural, ...
    • The Finite Volume Method in Computational Fluid Dynamics 

      Moukalled, F.; Mangani, L.; Darwish, M. (Springer, 2016)
      The impetus to write this book came about from three sources: The first source was the bi-yearly computational fluid dynamics (CFD) course, which has been offered over the last 15 years at the American University of ...
