Title: Corrosion and Protection (Engineering Materials and Processes)
Author: Einar Bardal
Publisher: Springer
Publication Date: 2004-01-09
Number Of Pages: 336
Corrosion is generally described as “an attack on a metallic material by reaction with it’s environment“. The corrosion of metallic materials causes large
economic losses and is a high risk for accidents. The cost of corrosion is great but it is possible to reduce this cost by a better employment of existing
knowledge. Providing a thorough contribution to knowledge distribution, Bardal combines a description of practical corrosion processes and problems with a
theoretical explanation of the various types and forms of corrosion, with particular attention to the interaction between description and theory. A well thought-
out introduction to corrosion science, with excellent examples and useful tables of data. Exremley well illustrated with 167 diagrams and photographs.
Contains extensive reference material utilising the latest international standards. Vital emphasis is placed on the connections between practical problems
and basic scientific principles. Corrosion and Protection is an essential guide for engineering students, particularly those with a limited background in
chemistry, such as mechanical, marine and civil engineering students and also provides a valuable reference source for practicing engineers

Publication Date: 2001-08-31
Number Of Pages: 816
Average Amazon Rating: 1.0
Although there are a number of satisfactory advanced thermodynamics texts on the market, virtually all of them take a rigorous theoretical and mathematical
approach to the subject. Engineering students need a more practical approach-one that offers physical explanations along with the mathematical relation
and equations-so they can readily apply them to real world problems.Advanced Thermodynamics Engineering fills that need. The authors take a down-to-
earth approach that lays a strong conceptual foundation and provides simple, physical explanations for thermodynamic processes and the practical
evaluation of thermodynamic systems. They employ a phenomenological approach throughout the book and include more than 150 engineering examples.
The authors stress applications throughout the book, illustrate availability concepts, and emphasize the use of two conservation and two balance equations.
They include an abundance of figures, exercises, and tables, plus a summary of important formulae and a summary of each chapter, ideal for quick
reference or review. The authors have also developed spreadsheet software that covers many of the applications presented.This text eliminates the need for
students to wade through the abstract generalized concepts and mathematical relations that govern thermodynamics. You can now offer them the perfect
text for understanding the physics of thermodynamic concepts and apply that knowledge in the field: Advanced Thermodynamics Engineering

Title: Advanced Thermodynamics for Engineers 1996-11
Author: D. E. Winterbone
Publisher: Butterworth-Heinemann
Publication Date: 1996-12
Number Of Pages: 352
Although the basic theories of thermodynamics are adequately covered by a number of existing texts, there is little literature that addresses more advanced
topics. In this comprehensive work the author redresses this balance, drawing on his twenty-five years of experience of teaching thermodynamics at
undergraduate and postgraduate level, to produce a definitive text to cover thoroughly, advanced syllabuses.
The book introduces the basic concepts which apply over the whole range of new technologies, considering: a new approach to cycles, enabling their
irreversibility to be taken into account; a detailed study of combustion to show how the chemical energy in a fuel is converted into thermal energy and
emissions; an analysis of fuel cells to give an understanding of the direct conversion of chemical energy to electrical power; a detailed study of property
relationships to enable more sophisticated analyses to be made of both high and low temperature plant and irreversible thermodynamics, whose principles
might hold a key to new ways of efficiently covering energy to power (e.g. solar energy, fuel cells). Worked examples are included in most of the chapters,
followed by exercises with solutions. By developing thermodynamics from an explicitly equilibrium perspective, showing how all systems attempt to reach a
state of equilibrium, and the effects of these systems when they cannot, the result is an unparalleled insight into the more advanced considerations when
converting any form of energy into power, that will prove invaluable to students and professional engineers of all disciplines

Title: Handbook of Natural Gas Transmission and Processing
Author: Saeid Mokhatab William A. Poe James G. Speight
Publisher: Gulf Professional Publishing
Publication Date: 2006-09-28
Number Of Pages: 672
Because natural gas is just that-a gas-it is very difficult to collect, transmit, and process, unlike liquids. You can feel, see, and handle liquids, but not gas.
Due to the very bright future of this expanding industry, more books are needed on the shelves of petroleum engineers who are moving from oil to natural gas
markets. Most drilling and petroleum engineers were not schooled specifically as "petroleum engineers," and this creates a dearth of knowledge and
expertise in the industrial literature. This gap is usually handled in intracompany ways, through mentoring, company guidelines, and rules of thumb. This
book is the "must have" information for the industry today

Title: Mechanics of Material Forces (Advances in Mechanics and Mathematics)
Author: Kalyan T. Talluri, Garrett J. Van Ryzin
Publisher: Springer
Publication Date: 2005-09-28
Number Of Pages: 337
This book covers new theoretical and numerical developments in the mechanics of material forces. Conceptually speaking, common continuum mechanics
in the sense of Newton – which gives rise to the notion of spatial (mechanical) forces – considers the response to variations of spatial placements of “physical
particles” with respect to the ambient space, whereas continuum mechanics in the sense of Eshelby – which gives rise to the notion of material
(configurational) forces – is concerned with the response to variations of material placements of “physical particles” with respect to the ambient material.
Well-known examples of material forces are driving forces on defects like the Peach-Koehler force, the J-Integral in fracture mechanics, and energy release.
The consideration of material forces goes back to the works of Eshelby, who investigated forces on defects; therefore this area of continuum mechanics is
sometimes denoted Eshelbian mechanics

Title: Hot Cracking Phenomena in Welds
Author:
Publisher: Springer
Publication Date: 2005-04-19
Number Of Pages: 394
Although the avoidance of hot cracking still represents a major topic in modern fabrication welding components, the phenomena have not yet been fully
understood. Through the 20 individual contributions from experts all over the world the present state of knowledge about hot cracking during welding is
defined, and the subject is approached from four different viewpoints. The first chapter provides an overview of the various hot cracking phenomena.
Different mechanisms of solidification cracking proposed in the past decades are summarized and new insight is particularly given into the mechanism of
ductility dip cracking. The effects of different alloying elements on the hot cracking resistance of various materials are shown in the second chapter and, as
a special metallurgical effect, the initiation of stress corrosion cracking at hot cracks has been highlighted. The third chapter outlines how numerical
analyses and other modelling techniques can be utilized to describe hot cracking phenomena and how such results might contribute to the explanation of
the mechanisms. Various hot cracking test procedures are presented in the final chapter with a special emphasis on standardization. For the engineering
and natural scientists in research and development the book provides both, new insight and a comprehensive overview of hot cracking phenomena in welds.
The contributions additionally give numerous individual solutions and helpful advice for international welding engineers to avoid hot cracking in practice.
Furthermore, it represents a very helpful tool for upper level metallurgical and mechanical engineering students
