    • Transmission Electron Microscopy 

      Williams, David B. (Springer, 1996)
      How is this book any different from the many other books that deal with TEM? It has several unique features, but the most distinguishing one, we believe, is that it can really be described as a "textbook"-that is, one ...
    • Fundamentals of Power Electronics 

      Erickson, Robert W.; Maksimovic, Dragan (Springer, 2000)
      The objective of the First Edition was to serve as a textbook for introductory power electronics courses where the fundamentals of power electronics are defined, rigorously presented, and treated in sufficient depth so ...
    • Ceramic Materials Science and Engineering 

      Carter, C. Barry; Norton, M. Grant (Springer, 2007)

    • 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 ...
    • Fatigue of Structures and Materials 

      Schijve, Jaap (Springer, 2009)
      Fatigue of structures and materials covers a wide scope of different topics. The purpose of the present book is to explain these topics, to indicate how they can be analyzed, and how this can contribute to the designing of ...
    • Structural Analysis 

      Bauchau, O.A.; Craig, J.I. (Springer, 2009)
      Engineered structures are almost as old as human civilization and undoubtedly began with rudimentary tools and the first dwellings outside caves. Great progress has been made over thousands of years, and our world is now ...
    • 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 ...
    • Design Research in Information Systems 

      Hevner, Alan; Chatterjee, Samir (Springer, 2010)
      The creative human activity of design changes the world in which we live for the better. As academic researchers in the field of information systems (IS), the co-authors have observed, studied, and taught design in the ...
    • Additive Manufacturing Technologies 

      Gibson, I.; Rosen, D. W.; Stucker, B. (Springer, 2010)
      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 ...

      Mechanics of Materials is the second volume of a three-volume textbook on Engineering Mechanics. Volume 1 deals with Statics while Volume 3 contains Dynamics. The original German version of this series is the bestselling ...
    • 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 ...
    • Alternative Energy Sources 

      Efstathios, E. (Springer, 2012)
      In the beginning of the twenty-first century, our society is faced with an energy challenge: as highly populous, developing countries become more affluent and as the developed nations continue to increase their energy ...
