Mathematica Cookbook /by Sal Mangano (Author) .Mathematica Cookbook helps you master the application's core principles by walking you through real-world problems. Ideal for browsing, this book includes recipes for working with numerics, data structures, algebraic equations, calculus, and statistics. You'll also venture into exotic territory with recipes for data visualization using 2D and 3D graphic tools, image processing, and music. Although Mathematica 7 is a highly advanced computational platform, the recipes in this book make it accessible to everyone -- whether you're working on high school algebra, simple graphs, PhD-level computation, financial analysis, or advanced engineering models.
* Learn how to use Mathematica at a higher level with functional programming and pattern matching
* Delve into the rich library of functions for string and structured text manipulation
* Learn how to apply the tools to physics and engineering problems
* Draw on Mathematica's access to physics, chemistry, and biology data
* Get techniques for solving equations in computational finance
* Learn how to use Mathematica for sophisticated image processing
* Process music and audio as musical notes, analog waveforms, or digital sound samples

Power Electronics Semiconductor Devices /by Robert Perret (Author).This book relates the recent developments in several key electrical engineering R&D labs, concentrating on power electronics switches and their use. The first sections deal with key power electronics technologies, MOSFETs and IGBTs, including series and parallel associations. The next section examines silicon carbide and its potentiality for power electronics applications and its present limitations. Then, a dedicated section presents the capacitors, key passive components in power electronics, followed by a modeling method allowing the stray inductances computation, necessary for the precise simulation of switching waveforms. Thermal behavior associated with power switches follows, and the last part proposes some interesting prospectives associated to Power Electronics integration.

Dynamic Behavior of Concrete and Seismic Engineering /by Jacky Mazars (Editor), Alain Millard (Editor) .While the static behavior of concrete has been the subject of numerous works, the same cannot be said for the dynamic behavior. This book sets out to remedy this situation: it begins by presenting the most frequently used experimental techniques in the study of the dynamic behavior of concrete, then continues by examining seismicity and seismic behavior, soil behavior, models of concrete structures subject to seismic activity, seismic calculation methods of structures, and paraseismic engineering.

At OneLife we have a term that is; ‘Setting your self up for success’ it’s quite simple. Why would you go and play golf against Tiger Woods for a chance at $1 Million Dollars if you have never played golf before? Now flip that around and see yourself as Tiger Woods how do you see your chance at that Million Dollars now? Almost a sure thing, so set your new year up for success! Have your goals ready so your not trying to find the time to plan your new year out on new years day, that’s when your year should be starting.

Applied Biofluid Mechanics contains two chapters that are explicitly devoted to cardiovascular and pulmonary physiology, as well as one chapter devoted to hematology (the study of blood). I used Biofluid Mechanics in Cardiovascular Systems as a textbook in my fluid mechanics course last fall, and it was well received by the students. Applied Biofluid Mechanics is a much improved textbook with review problem sets for each chapter, an on-line solutions manual, on-line photomicrographs, many more example problems, and expanded overall coverage.
