It serves as a complete one-stop source for undergraduate/graduate pharmacists, pharmaceutical science students, and for those in the pharmaceutical industry. The Fifth Edition completely updates the previous edition, and also includes additional coverage on the newer approaches such as oligonucleotides, siRNA, gene therapy and nano...

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.

De mechanica is een van die klassieke onderwerpen, waarmee iedere beoefenaar van de exacte wetenschappen in aanraking komt. In dit boek wordt een inleiding gegeven in dit vakgebied waarbij in elk hoofdstuk een deel van de algemene theorie wordt ontwikkeld. De theorie wordt geïllustreerd door een groot aantal klassieke voorbeelden zoals de planetenbeweging, de mathematische en de cycloïdale slinger, de bolslinger, de slinger van Foucault, wrijving en stootverschijnselen, de tolbeweging.Prof....

'Staal-beton' behandelt in zes hoofdstukken de toepassing en de berekening van staal-beton constructies voor gebouwen volgens Eurocode 4.

• Hoofdstuk 1 geeft een algemeen overzicht van de kenmerken, de ontwerp- en uitvoeringsaspecten en de toepassingsmogelijkheden van staal-beton liggers, staalplaat-betonvloeren en staal-beton kolommen. Aan de hand van vier recente Nederlandse projecten worden de voor- en nadelen van de verschillende constructieve oplossingen besproken.
