Deze herziene, negende druk van Praktische stralingshygiëne geeft systematisch inzicht in de gevaren van toepassing van ioniserende straling. Het boek speelt vooral in op de praktische methoden om die gevaren te beheersen, zodat een aanvaardbaar risico ontstaat.

Nieuw in deze druk is dat er naast de basiskennis ook verdiepende paragrafen zijn opgenomen. Ook is een uitgebreide literatuurlijst toegevoegd. Het boek is nu geheel in full colour uitgevoerd.

Het boek is bedoeld voor iedereen die te...

Hands-On Introduction to LaVIEW for Scientists and Engineers provides a learn-by-doing approach to acquiring the computer-based skills used daily in experimental work. The book is not the typical manual-like presentation of LabVIEW. Rather, Hands-On Introduction to LabVIEW guides students through using this powerful laboratory tool to carry out interesting and relevant projects.

Readers, who are assumed to have no prior computer programming orLabVIEW experience, begin writing meaningful progr...

A complete introduction to the field of computational physics, with examples and exercises in the Python programming language. Computers play a central role in virtually every major physics discovery today, from astrophysics and particle physics to biophysics and condensed matter. This book explains the fundamentals of computational physics and describes in simple terms the techniques that every physicist should know, such as finite difference methods, numerical quadrature, and the fast Fouri...

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.

Basisboek wiskunde legt de basis voor de wiskunde die op universiteiten en hogescholen gebruikt wordt bij studierichtingen in techniek, informatica, bètavakken, economie, bedrijfskunde, medische vakken en aanverwante disciplines. Centraal staat het aanleren van die wiskundige vaardigheden die studenten in deze disciplines moeten beheersen: rekenvaardigheid, formulevaardigheid, werken met functies en grafieken en vaardigheid in differentiëren en integreren.
