William Bober Florida Atlantic University, Boca Raton, USA
This textbook teaches students how to write computer programs on the MATLAB® platform and to use many of MATLAB’s built-in functions to solve engineering-type problems. To students, MATLAB’s built-in functions are black boxes. By combining a textbook on MATLAB with basic numerical and analytical analysis, the mystery of what the black boxes contain is somewhat alleviated. Within each chapter there are exercises related to the topics just covered. The text contains many examples from mechanical, civil, aeronautical, and electrical engineering.

A Laboratory Course in Nanoscience and Nanotechnology Dr. Gérrard Eddy Jai Poinern Murdoch University, Perth, Western Australia
Introduction to Nanoscience Gabor L. Hornyak, Joydeep Dutta, Harry F. Tibbals, and Anil K. Rao Tomorrow’s nanoscientist will have a truly interdisciplinary and nano-centric education, rather than, for example, a degree in chemistry with a specialization in nanoscience. For this to happen, the field needs a truly focused and dedicated textbook. This full-color masterwork is such a textbook. It introduces the nanoscale along with the societal impacts of nanoscience, and then presents an overview of characterization and fabrication methods. The authors systematically discuss the chemistry, physics, and biology aspects of nanoscience, providing a complete picture of the challenges, opportunities, and inspirations posed by each facet before giving a brief glimpse at nanoscience in action: nanotechnology.

Introduction to Nanoscience & Nanotechnology Gabor L. Hornyak, Harry F. Tibbals, Joydeep Dutta, and John J. Moore The maturation of nanotechnology has revealed it to be a unique and distinct discipline rather than a specialization within a larger field. Its textbook cannot afford to be a chemistry, physics, or engineering text focused on nano. It must be an integrated and multidisciplinary nano textbook. The archetype of the modern nano textbook, this text builds a solid background in characterization and fabrication methods while integrating the physics, chemistry, and biology facets. The remainder of this color text focuses on applications, examining engineering aspects as well as nanomaterials and industry-specific applications in such areas as energy, electronics, and biotechnology.

Fundamentals of Nanotechnology Gabor L. Hornyak, John J. Moore, Harry F. Tibbals, and Joydeep Dutta
Although there are many theoretical nanotechnology and nanoscience textbooks available to students, there are relatively few practical laboratory-based books. Filling this need, this practical manual presents a hands-on approach to key synthesis techniques and processes currently used in nanotechnology and nanoscience. It shows undergraduate students how to synthesize their own nanometer-scale materials and structures and then analyze their results using advanced characterization techniques. Through a series of well-designed, classroom-tested lab experiments, students gain hands-on skills to complement their theoretical studies.
Nanotechnology is no longer a subdiscipline of chemistry, engineering, or any other field. It represents the convergence of many fields, and therefore demands a new paradigm for teaching. This 2009 CHOICE Award winner is for the next generation of nanotechnologists. It surveys the field’s broad landscape, exploring the physical basics such as nanorheology, nanofluidics, and nanomechanics as well as industrial concerns such as manufacturing, reliability, and safety. The authors then explore the vast range of nanomaterials and systematically outline devices and applications in various industrial sectors. This color text is an ideal companion to Introduction to Nanoscience by the same group of esteemed authors.
