Sterkteleer is een standaardwerk op het gebied van de mechanica. Het geeft een duidelijke en grondige introductie in de theorie en de toepassingen van de sterkteleer. Techniekstudenten krijgen inzicht in de materie doordat het fysische gedrag van materialen onder belasting wordt verklaard. Vervolgens wordt dit gedrag gemodelleerd en kan de theorie worden afgeleid. De nadruk ligt hierbij op evenwicht, compatibiliteit van de vervormingen en de eisen die aan het materiaal moeten worden gesteld.

The Systems Modeling Language (SysML) extends UML with powerful systems engineering capabilities for modeling a wider spectrum of systems and capturing all aspects of a system's design. SysML Distilled is the first clear, concise guide for everyone who wants to start creating effective SysML models. (Drawing on his pioneering experience at Lockheed Martin and NASA, Lenny Delligatti illuminates SysML's core components and provides practical advice to help you create good models and good designs.

Delligatti begins with an easy-to-understand overview of Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) and an explanation of how SysML enables effective system specification, analysis, design, optimization, verification, and validation. Next, he shows how to use all nine types of SysML diagrams, even if you have no previous experience with modeling languages. A case study running through the text demonstrates the use of SysML in modeling a complex, real-world sociotechnical syste...

This short guide to modern error analysis is primarily intended to be used in undergraduate laboratories in the physical sciences. No prior knowledge of statistics is assumed. The necessary concepts are introduced where needed and illustrated graphically. The book emphasises the use of computers for error calculations and data fitting.

Ruimtelijk kunnen denken is voor creatieve beroepen, zoals productontwikkelaar, architect, ingenieur en andere ontwerpers, een belangrijke vaardigheid. Aan de hand van meer dan 350 oefeningen tracht dit boek het ruimtelijk denken te stimuleren en te verbeteren.

Hoewel oefeningen in ruimtelijk denken het grootste deel uitmaken van dit boek, is het natuurlijk zo dat de verbeelde vormen, volumes en systemen ook op een of andere manier getekend moeten kunnen worden. Daarom gaan enkele hoofdstukken...

Location-based Services (LBSs) are mobile services for providing information that has been created, compiled, selected or filtered under consideration of the users' current locations or those of other persons or mobile devices. Typical examples are restaurant finders, buddy trackers, navigation services or applications in the areas of mobile marketing and mobile gaming. The attractiveness of LBSs is due to the fact that users are not required to enter location information manually but are aut...
