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.

Elektronica is spannend. Het is een hobby die zowel leuk als leerzaam is. Het stelt je in staat om thuis of op het werk nieuwe en nuttige vaardigheden te leren. Een ervaren elektronicus ontwerpt zijn eigen schakelingen, en brengt zijn projecten tot leven. Maar voordat je zover bent, moet je eerst de basis onder de knie krijgen. Daarom brengt dit boek een groot aantal inleidende artikelen samen die in het elektronicatijdschrift Elektor zijn gepubliceerd. Het is je metgezel bij het leerproces i...

Dit boek behandelt de grondslagen voor het berekenen en toetsen van staalconstructies voor gebouwen volgens NEN-EN 1990 (Eurocode 0), NEN-EN 1991 (Eurocode 1) en NEN-EN 1993 (Eurocode 3) met de bijbehorende Nationale Bijlagen.

• Hoofdstuk 1 behandelt de theorie en achtergronden van NEN-EN 1990 voor wat betreft constructieve veiligheid, betrouwbaarheid en rekenwaarden van de weerstand en de belasting.

• Hoofdstuk 2 gaat over belastingen en vervormingen die zijn omschreven in NEN-EN 1991 en de ...

Mechanica + constructie 1

Dit boek is een kennismaking met de mechanica van bouwwerken, waarbij de mechanica zowel onderdeel is van het constructief ontwerp als van de constructieve berekening.

• Hoofdstuk 1 verklaart vanuit de wetten van Newton ‘het in evenwicht zijn’ van constructies en bespreekt de gebruikte eenheden en de nauwkeurigheid van de constructieve berekening.

• Hoofdstuk 2 behandelt het grafisch en analytisch samenstellen en ontbinden van krachten én het effect van verp...

In addition to its thorough coverage of DSP design and programming techniques, Smith also covers the operation and usage of DSP chips. He uses Analog Devices' popular DSP chip family as design examples.

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. This latest edition focuses on the sensing technologies driven by the expanding use of sensors in mobile devices. These new miniature sensors will be described, with an emphasis on smart sensors which have embedded processing systems.

The chapter on chemical sensors has also been expanded ...

Written by an excellent, highly experienced and motivated team of lecturers, this textbook is based on one of the most successful courses in catalysis and as such is tried-and-tested by generations of graduate and PhD students. It covers all essential aspects of this important topic, including homogeneous, heterogeneous and biocatalysis, but also kinetics, reactor design and engineering. The perfect source of information for graduate and PhD students in chemistry and chemical engineering, as ...

As its name implies, the aim of Systems Design and Engineering: Facilitating Multidisciplinary Development Projects is to help systems engineers develop the skills and thought processes needed to successfully develop and implement engineered systems. Such expertise typically does not come through study but from action, hard work, and cooperation. To that end, the authors have chosen a "hands-on" approach for presenting material rather than concentrating on theory, as so often is the case in a...

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...
