This book presents a comprehensive and up-to-date account of the theory (physical principles), design, and practical implementations of various sensors for scientific, industrial, and consumer applications. This latest edition focuses on the sensing technologies driven by the expanding use of sensors in mobile devices. These new miniature sensors will be described, with an emphasis on smart sensors which have embedded processing systems.

The chapter on chemical sensors has also been expanded ...

Covering the various aspects of this fast-evolving field, this comprehensive book includes the fundamentals and a comparison of current applications, while focusing on the latest, novel achievements and future directions. The introductory chapters explore the thermodynamic and electrochemical processes to better understand how electrolysis cells work, and how these can be combined to build large electrolysis modules. The book then goes on to discuss the electrolysis process and the characteri...

Bij het ontwerpen van gebouwen heeft men voortdurend te maken met maten die zijn afgeleid van de afmetingen van het menselijk lichaam. Wij vinden deze menselijke maten of veelvouden hiervan terug in de afmetingen van onderdelen van gebouwen, zoals trappen, deuren, keukens en voorwerpen die zijn bestemd voor het gebruik door mensen.Om te voorkomen dat iedere ontwerper opnieuw deze maten zelf moeten opmeten is dit boekje. 'De menselijke maat', samengesteld. In deze uitgave worden niet alleen de...

Autofabrikanten doen veel om de motor trillingsvrij en dus geluidsarm te laten draaien. Hiertoe worden o.a. balansassen gemonteerd. In deze uitgave worden de oorzaken van trillingen in motoren en het elimineren ervan behandeld.
