For one-semester, undergraduate-level courses in Optoelectronics and Photonics, in the departments of electrical engineering, engineering physics, and materials science and engineering. This text takes a fresh look at the enormous developments in electo-optic devices and associated materials-such as Pockels (Lithium Niobate) modulators.

Ship Construction, Seventh Edition, offers guidance for ship design and shipbuilding from start to finish. It provides an overview of current shipyard techniques, safety in shipyard practice, materials and strengths, welding and cutting, and ship structure, along with computer-aided design and manufacture, international regulations for ship types, new materials, and fabrication technologies.

Chemical Engineering Volume 2 covers the properties of particulate systems, including the character of individual particles and their behaviour in fluids. Sedimentation of particles, both singly and at high concentrations, flow in packed and fluidised beads and filtration are then examined. The latter part of the book deals with separation processes, such as distillation and gas absorption, which illustrate applications of the fundamental principles of mass transfer introduced in Chemical Eng...

This book deals with the subject of fire safety and the design of fire resistant steel structures for buildings according to Eurocode 3.

• Chapter 1 describes the objectives of fire safety based on the behaviour of a fire and discusses the measures that a designer can take to meet the fire safety requirements found in building regulations.

• Chapter 2 deals with the calculation of the fire resistance of a steel structure. The simple calculation model is suitable for tension members, beams...

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...

The Eighth Edition builds a ...

Dit boek behandelt het berekenen van de stabiliteit van staven in staalconstructies belast op druk, op buiging en op de combinatie van druk en buiging volgens Eurocode 3.

• Hoofdstuk 1 behandelt de theorie en achtergronden van de stabiliteit van een centrisch op druk belaste staaf met aandacht voor de Eulerse knikkracht, knikkromme en knikfactor. Vervolgens komen de instabiliteitsvormen (knik, torsie en torsieknik) aan de orde en wordt het begrip kniklengte besproken voor staven en raamwerken.

• Hoofdstuk 2 behandelt de theorie en achtergronden van de stabiliteit van een op buiging belaste staaf met aandacht voor de verschillende randvoorwaarden en belastingcondities. Daarna wordt het Eulerse kipmoment besproken en de theorie toegelicht met een aantal rekenvoorbeeld...
