Mass Transfer Diffusion and Mass Transfer James S. Vrentas and Christine M. Vrentas The Pennsylvania State University, University Park, USA
"Finally a text which integrates in an easily understandable and logical fashion the coupled nature of the equations of change with respect to multicomponent mass transfer and its constitutive equations." —William H. Velander, University of Nebraska, Lincoln
Presenting diffusion and mass transfer from both engineering and fundamental science perspectives, this book offers a comprehensive summary of the theory and applies that theory to obtain detailed solutions to a wide variety of problems.

Transport Phenomena Fundamentals Second Edition Joel Plawsky Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, New York, USA Series: Chemical Industries
One of the foundations of chemical engineering is built upon transport phenomena. This text provides a unified treatment of heat, mass, and momentum transport based on a balance equation approach. The first part of the book takes students through the balance equation in the context of diffusive transport. The second half builds upon the balance equation description of diffusive transport by introducing convective transport terms, focusing on partial rather than ordinary differential equations.

Random Phenomena Fundamentals of Probability and Statistics for Engineers Babatunde A. Ogunnaike University of Delaware, Newark, USA
“I highly recommend this book for engineering students, professional engineers and applied statisticians dealing with systems involving random phenomena. Instructors who are looking for an alternative textbook should give serious consideration to adopting this book.” —Ali Cinar, Technometrics, August 2011
“As an engineer involved in statistical data analysis, I would have loved to be taught from a book like this and I heartily recommend this book as a classroom textbook for both the clarity of the explanations and the amount of material covered.” —Pieter Bastiaan Ober, Journal of Applied Statistics, 2011
This book provides students with a fundamental understanding of random phenomena and how to model and analyze such phenomena. It explains how to use probability and statistics to deal with uncertainty in engineering problems. The text includes case studies, in-chapter examples, review questions, exercises, application problems, and project assignments. A solutions manual is available upon qualifying course adoption

General MATLAB® with Applications to Engineering, Physics and Finance
Physical Chemistry for Engineering and Applied Sciences
David Baez-Lopez
Frank R. Foulkes
Universidad de las Américas, Puebla, Mexico
This book explains how to perform complex mathematical tasks with MATLAB® programs. The author first describes simple functions such as differentiation, integration, and plotting. He then addresses advanced topics, including programming, producing executables, publishing results directly from MATLAB programs, and creating graphical user interfaces. The text also presents examples of Simulink® for system modeling and simulation. It contains more than 160 practical worked examples and numerous end-ofchapter exercises. MATLAB examples and programs can be downloaded from the book’s website. A solutions manual is available upon qualifying course adoption

This book is the result of more than 30 years of teaching by the author of a one-semester course in physical chemistry to first-year students at the University of Toronto. The enrollment varied from 300 to 800 students per year over the years. The book is unique in that it provides the detailed development of the equations, which can be followed relatively easily even with only moderate mathematical skills and backgrounds. • Shows students how to use the theoretical principles and equations developed in the text via a large number of completely worked example problems • Provides 500 end-of-chapter problems chosen to be sufficiently interesting to encourage students to want to know the answers • Facilitates self-instruction by providing the answers––but not the solutions––of all exercises and problems • Includes a very detailed summary at the end of each chapter, and a cross-referenced index that includes examples and problems A solutions manual and figure slides are available upon qualifying course adoption
