Elements of Propulsion: Gas Turbines And Rockets (AIAA Education) (Aiaa Education Series)
By Jack D. Mattingly
* Publisher: AIAA (American Institute of Aeronautics & Ast
* Number Of Pages: 867
* Publication Date: 2006-08-30
* ISBN / ASIN: 1563477793
This text provides a complete introduction to gas turbine and rocket propulsion for aerospace and mechanical engineers. Building on the very successful
Elements of Gas Turbine Propulsion, textbook coverage has been expanded to include rocket propulsion and the material on gas dynamics has been
dramatically improved. The text is divided into four parts: basic concepts and gas dynamics; analysis of rocket propulsion systems; parametric (design point)
and performance (off-design) analysis of air breathing propulsion systems; and analysis and design of major gas turbine engine components (fans,
compressors, turbines, inlets, nozzles, main burners, and afterburners).
Design concepts are introduced early (aircraft and rocket performance in an introductory chapter) and integrated throughout. Written with extensive student
input on the design of the book, the book builds upon definitions and gradually develops the thermodynamics, gas dynamics, rocket engine analysis, and gas
turbine engine principles. The book contains over 100 worked examples and numerous homework problems so concepts are applied after they are
introduced. Over 600 illustrations and pictures show basic concepts, trends, and design examples. Eight computer programs accompany the text, which
allow for rapid calculation of trends,  what if  questions, conceptual design, homework problems, and homework verification. The software runs in the
Windows operating system on PC-compatible systems.

Advanced Gas Turbine Cycles : A Brief Review of Power Generation Thermodynamics
ISBN: 0080442730
Author: J. Horlock
Publisher: Pergamon
Edition: (July 18, 2003)
Pages: 188 pages
Primarily this book describes the thermodynamics of gas turbine cycles. The search for high gas turbine efficiency has produced many variations on the
simple A´open circuitA´ plant, involving the use of heat exchangers, reheating and intercooling, water and steam injection, cogeneration and combined
cycle plants. These are described fully in the text. A review of recent proposals for a number of novel gas turbine cycles is also included. In the past few
years work has been directed towards developing gas turbines which produce less carbon dioxide, or plants from which the CO2 can be disposed of; the
implications of a carbon tax on electricity pricing are considered. In presenting this wide survey of gas turbine cycles for power generation the author calls
on both his academic experience (at Cambridge and Liverpool Universities, the Gas Turbine Laboratory at MIT and Penn State University) and his industrial
work (primarily with Rolls Royce, plc.) The book will be essential reading for final year and masters students in mechanical engineering, and for practising
engineers.

Pipelines and Risers
(Elsevier Ocean Engineering Series)
Summary
This book summarizes the author's 18 years research and engineering experience at universities, classification societies and design offices. The intention is
to develop this book as a textbook for graduate students, as it includes design guidelines for engineers and references for researchers. It is hoped that this
book may also be used to aid the design of offshore structures as it details applied mechanics and design/engineering.
The book has been used in a teaching course for M.Sc. students at Stavanger University College and IBC training course for engineers in pipeline and riser
industries since August 1998.
The preparation of the book was motivated by recent developments in research and engineering and new design codes. There is a need for such a book to
educate more pipeline engineers and provide materials for on-job training on the use of new design codes and guides

Finite Element Method: A Practical Course - (May 28, 2003)
Author: G.R. Liu
Publisher: Butterworth-Heinemann
Publication Date: 2003-05-28
Number Of Pages: 384
ISBN: 0750658665
The Finite Element Method (FEM) has become an indispensable technology for the modelling and simulation of engineering systems. Written for engineers
and students alike, the aim of the book is to provide the necessary theories and techniques of the FEM for readers to be able to use a commercial FEM
package to solve primarily linear problems in mechanical and civil engineering with the main focus on structural mechanics and heat transfer. Fundamental
theories are introduced in a straightforward way, and state-of-the-art techniques for designing and analyzing engineering systems, including microstructural
systems are explained in detail. Case studies are used to demonstrate these theories, methods, techniques and practical applications, and numerous
diagrams and tables are used throughout. The case studies and examples use the commercial software package ABAQUS, but the techniques explained are
equally applicable for readers using other applications including NASTRAN, ANSYS, MARC, etc. Full sets of PowerPoint slides developed by the authors for
their course on FEM are available as a free download from a companion website. * A practical and accessible guide to this complex, yet important subject
* Covers modeling techniques that predict how components will operate and tolerate loads, stresses and strains in reality
* Full set of PowerPoint presentation slides which illustrate and support the book are available on a companion website

Number Of Pages: 482
ISBN: 0471915521
Following the highly successful previous editions, this Third edition contains programs and subroutine libraries fully updated in Fortran 90, which are also
available on the Internet via anonymous ftp. A wide variety of new problem solving analyses are presented, including classical structural analysis, elasticity
and plasticity, steady state and transient fluid flow, linear and non-linear solid dynamics and construction processes in geomechanics. The authors provide:
a clear outline of programming philosophy programs which illustrate analytic rather than numerical evaluation of element properties exercises for students to
solve Unique elements of the text include: practical problems in Fortran 90 instructions to the reader for developing their own computer programs which use
the finite element method to solve specific problems guidelines towards vectorisable/parallelisable programs ‘Mesh-free or ‘element-by-element techniques
supplanting traditional ‘mesh-dependent or ‘global element assembly methods in every chapter. These improvements all contribute to a more
comprehensive book with a wide appeal, but which will be of particular interest to students and practitioners in the application of the finite element method,
and problems related to its use; undergraduates and postgraduates in civil engineering (applications in fields of Geomechanics), mechanical engineering
(stress and fluid flow problems), applied mathematics and physics (solution of partial differential equations), and engineers in the fields as indicated above
