Over the past decade the scientific acti vities of the Joint Global Ocean Flux Study (JGOFS), which focuses on the role of the oceans in controlling climate change via the transport and storage of greenhouse gases and organic matter, have led to an increased interest in the study ofthe biogeochemistry of organic matter. There is also a growing interest in global climate fluctuations. This, …
This is a book about the Mechanics of Solids, Statics, the Strength of Materials, and Elasticity Theory. But that doesn’t mean a thing unless you have had a course in the Mechanics of Solids, Statics, the Strength of Materials, or Elasticity Theory. I assume you have not; let us try again: This is a book that builds upon what you were supposed to learn in your basic physics and mathematics…
Methodologies and Applications for Chemoinformatics and Chemical Engineering is aimed at providing comprehensive coverage on the latest developments of research in the ever-expanding area of theoretical and computational chemistry and their applications to broad scientific fields spanning physics, chemistry, biology, materials, and so on. A common misconception about Chemoinformatics is that…
Advances in the level of understanding of chemical engineering principles, combined with the availability of new tools and new techniques, have led to an increased degree of sophistication which can now be applied to the design of industrial chemical operations. This fourth edition takes advantage of the widened spectrum of chemical engineering knowledge by the inclusion of considerable ma…
The subject of this book is chemical engineering design, but the methodology of design described in this section applies equally to other branches of engineering design. Design is a creative activity, and as such can be one of the most rewarding and satisfying activities undertaken by an engineer. It is the synthesis, the putting together, of ideas to achieve a desired purpose. The desig…
