Based on a former popular course of the same title, Concepts of Chemical Engineering for Chemists outlines the basic aspects of chemical engineering for chemistry professionals. It clarifies the terminology used and explains the systems methodology approach to process design and operation for chemists with limited chemical engineering knowledge. The book provides practical insights into all areas of chemical engineering with well explained worked examples and case studies.

The new edition con...

This proven and internationally recognized text teaches the methods of engineering design as a condition of successful product development. It breaks down the design process into phases and then into distinct steps, each with its own working methods. The book provides more examples of product development; it also tightens the scientific bases of its design ideas with new solution fields in composite components, building methods, mechatronics and adaptronics.

The economics of design and develo...

This introductory text explains both the basic science and the applications of biotechnology-derived pharmaceuticals, with special emphasis on their clinical use. 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....

Connections

This textbook covers the behaviour of connections in steel structures and the design of mechanical fasteners and welds according to EN 1993 (Eurocode 3).

• Chapter 1 is about the function of connections in a steel structure and describes the different components. It also discusses the most important aspects of design and detailing and the role of the computer in the analysis and design of a steel structure

• Chapter 2 deals with the most widely used mechanical fasteners in ste...

This textbook deals in six chapters with the application and design of composite steel and concrete structures for buildings according to Eurocode 4.

• Chapter 1 gives a general overview of the characteristics, design and construction, and applications of composite beams, floors and columns. Also the advantages and disadvantages of the different structural solutions are discussed.

• Chapters 2 to 5 provide detailed information about the design methods and assessment rules in EN 1994 for ...

'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.

• Hoofdstukken 2 t...

This textbook covers the introduction to this very interesting field of structural mechanics on a bachelor of science level. Theory and application are directly combined by the use of numerous examples. These will clarify all steps involved and this approach is highly appreciated by students.

Good knowledge of statics and strength of materials is a prerequisite to the use of this textbook since in the examples both topics are frequently used to strengthen the overall knowledge of students an...
