With increasing operating frequencies of digital electronic devices, limitations are becoming evident in existing modelling techniques. Elsewhere in electromagnetics itself there are new modelling challenges with the introduction of integrated planar microwave circuits, as neither conductors nor dielectrics can be considered ideal at these very high frequencies. This book acts as a bridge between the mathematical abilities of the pure EM theorist and those of the FET circuit modeller; it combines the two fields by introducing analytical techniques encompassing the linear modelling of both passive and active structures, in particular FET structures. The resulting text will be of equal benefit to researchers in microwave and millimetric components and as an advanced textbook for specialised courses.

Through four previous editions of Advanced Engineering Mathematics with MATLAB, the author presented a wide variety of topics needed by today's engineers. The fifth edition of that book, available now, has been broken into two parts: topics currently needed in mathematics courses and a new stand-alone volume presenting topics not often included in these courses and consequently unknown to engineering students and many professionals.
The overall structure of this new book consists of two parts: transform methods and random processes. Built upon a foundation of applied complex variables, the first part covers advanced transform methods, as well as z-transforms and Hilbert transforms--transforms of particular interest to systems, communication, and electrical engineers. This portion concludes with Green's function, a powerful method of analyzing systems.%u3000
The second portion presents random processes--processes that more accurately model physical and biological engineering. Of particular interest is the inclusion of stochastic calculus.%u3000
The author continues to offer a wealth of examples and applications from the scientific and engineering literature, a highlight of his previous books. As before, theory is presented first, then examples, and then drill problems. Answers are given in the back of the book.
This book is all about the future: The purpose of this book is not only to educate the present generation of engineers but also the next.
"The main strength is the text is written from an engineering perspective. The majority of my students are engineers. The physical examples are related to problems of interest to the engineering students." --Lea Jenkins, Clemson University

How can you change the attitudes of twice-burned executives who have become disdainful of employees and now display openly a lack of appreciation and a general sense of mistrust? How do you teach people to deal with difficult employees or managers who have irritating or destructive behavior patterns? What can be done when problems brought about by diversity in the workplace threaten the cohesiveness and morale of a department or team? Designed for trainers and consultants with advanced facilitation skills, this innovative collection of activities focuses on changing hidden attitudes, assumptions, and vallues that individuals and groups within an organization seldom even acknowledge, much less openly explore--attitudes that, when allowed to fester below the surface, can even the most successul companies.
The book provides trainers with all the tools needed to confront even the most potentially explosive issues in ways that win management and employee trust, confidence, and even enthusiasms. That's because the activities in this collection are also stimulating, provocative, and sophisticated--leading to a free and healthy interchange of feelings, opinions, and ideas. Included are:
- advanced team-building activities;
- conflict resolution activities that help heal old wounds;
- sophisticated icebreakers that overcome people's natural resistance to self-disclosure;
- exercises that foster empathy in majority groups towards minority populations;
- department or organization-wide interventions that help change unprodouctive or negative values;
- exercises that diagnose and fix team conflicts;
- activities that restore lost confidence in a leader or employee;
- exercises that helporganizations in transition avoid slipping back into bad habits;
- and much more!

In the second half of the twentieth century, increasing efforts were made towards containing and cleaning contaminated groundwater. A number of techniques can be used to achieve such goals, traditionally either by treating or isolating the soil in situ, or by removing it for washing or disposal. However, such technologies tend to be accompanied by high energy consumption, and can lead to new environmental problems. Therefore, more efficient and economical techniques are needed to remediate contaminated soil and groundwater.
Advanced Groundwater Remediation contains a selection of the most up-to-date research results on reactive barrier and pump-and-treat techniques, with the main focus on heavy metal removal. After dealing with general issues of groundwater remediation using active and passive processes, remediation engineering practice is discussed, with the emphasis on chromium remediation, innovative applications, engineering design and performance monitoring. There is particular focus on sorptive removal and on natural processes, including metals loading on sorbents, sorption mechanisms, monitored natural attenuation and phytoextraction.
This book will contribute to improving groundwater quality: firstly, through enhanced efficiencies in research investment, by avoiding needless overlap/competition between approaches; secondly, by achieving a clearer recognition of situations for which a particular approach is best suited, and of the specialist capabilities essential to the informed delivery of each; and finally, by achieving recognition for the value and maturity of the whole field of groundwater remediation.

This book summarizes recent progresses in inorganic fluorine chemistry. Highlights include new aspects of inorganic fluorine chemistry, such as new synthetic methods, structures of new fluorides and oxide fluorides, their physical and chemical properties, fluoride catalysts, surface modifications of inorganic materials by fluorination process, new energy conversion materials and industrial applications.
Fluorine has quite unique properties (highest electronegativity; very small polarizability). In fact, fluorine is so reactive that it forms fluorides with all elements except with the lightest noble gases helium, neon and argon. Originally, due to its high reactivity, fluoride chemistry faced many technical difficulties and remained undeveloped for many years. Now, however, a large number of fluorine-containing materials are currently produced for practical uses on an industrial scale and their applications are rapidly extending to many fields.
Syntheses and structure analyses of thermodynamically unstable high-oxidation-state fluorides have greatly contributed to inorganic chemistry in this decade. Fluoride catalysts and surface modifications using fluorine are developing a new field of fluorine chemistry and will enable new syntheses of various compounds. The research on inorganic fluorides is now contributing to many chemical energy conversion processes such as lithium batteries. Furthermore, new theoretical approaches to determining the electronic structures of fluorine compounds are also progressing. On the industrial front, the use of inorganic fluorine compounds is constantly increasing, for example, in semi-conductor industry.
"Advanced Inorganic Fluorides: Synthesis, Characterization and Applications" focuses on these new features in inorganic fluorine chemistry and its industrial applications. The authors are outstanding experts in their fields, and the contents of the book should prove to be of valuable assistance to all chemists, graduates, students and researchers in the field of fluorine chemistry.

Explore the Computational Methods and Mathematical Models That Are Possible through Continuum Mechanics Formulations
Mathematically demanding, but also rigorous, precise, and written using very clear language, Advanced Mechanics of Continua provides a thorough understanding of continuum mechanics. This book explores the foundation of continuum mechanics and constitutive theories of materials using understandable notations. It does not stick to one specific form, but instead provides a mix of notations that while in many instances are different than those used in current practice, are a natural choice for the information that they represent. The book places special emphasis on both matrix and vector notations, and presents material using these notations whenever possible.
The author explores the development of mathematical descriptions and constitutive theories for deforming solids, fluids, and polymeric fluids—both compressible and incompressible with clear distinction between Lagrangian and Eulerian descriptions as well as co- and contravariant bases. He also establishes the tensorial nature of strain measures and influence of rotation of frames on various measures, illustrates the physical meaning of the components of strains, presents the polar decomposition of deformation, and provides the definitions and measures of stress.
Comprised of 16 chapters, this text covers:
- Einstein’s notation
- Index notations
- Matrix and vector notations
- Basic definitions and concepts
- Mathematical preliminaries
- Tensor calculus and transformations using co- and contra-variant bases
- Differential calculus of tensors
- Development of mathematical descriptions and constitutive theories
Advanced Mechanics of Continua prepares graduate students for fundamental and basic research work in engineering and sciences, provides detailed and consistent derivations with clarity, and can be used for self-study.
