DIFFERENTIAL EVOLUTION IN CHEMICAL ENGINEERING DEVELOPMENTS AND APPLICATIONS

edited by Gade Pandu Rangaiah (NUS, Singapore) & Shivom Sharma (Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne, Switzerland) Optimization plays a key role in the design, planning and operation of chemical and related processes for several decades. Techniques for solving optimization problems are of deterministic or stochastic type. Of these, stochastic techniques can solve any type of optimization problems and can be adapted for multiple objectives. Differential evolution (DE), proposed about two decades ago, is one of the stochastic techniques. Its algorithm is simple to understand and use. DE has found many applications in chemical engineering. Readership: Researchers, academics, professionals and graduate students in chemical engineering and optimization. 450pp 978-981-3207-51-6

BIOMEDICAL ENGINEERING: APPLICATIONS, BASIS AND COMMUNICATIONS (BME)

http://www.worldscientific.com/bme Editor-in-Chief: Wang, Jaw-Lin (National Taiwan University, Taiwan)

About BME: Aims and Scope

Biomedical Engineering: Applications, Basis and Communications is an international, interdisciplinary journal aiming at publishing up-to-date contributions on original clinical and basic research in the biomedical engineering. Research of biomedical engineering has grown tremendously in the past few decades. Meanwhile, several outstanding journals in the field have emerged, with different emphases and objectives. We hope this journal will serve as a new forum for both scientists and clinicians to share their ideas and the results of their studies.

Biomedical Engineering: Applications, Basis and Communications explores all facets of biomedical engineering, with emphasis on both the clinical and scientific aspects of the study. It covers the fields of bioelectronics, biomaterials, biomechanics, bioinformatics, nano-biological sciences and clinical engineering. The journal fulfils this aim by publishing regular research / clinical articles, short communications, technical notes and review papers. Papers from both basic research and clinical investigations will be considered.

Materials in Engineering NONLOCAL CONTINUUM DAMAGE AND PLASTICITY

HIGH TEMPERATURE CORROSION

Theory and Computations

edited by A S Khanna (Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay, India)

Contents: Bridging of Length Scales; Classical Plasticity; Classical Continuum Damage Mechanics; Classical Coupled Damage and Plasticity; Nonlocal Theories; Nonlocal Elasticity; Nonlocal Damage; Nonlocal Plasticity; Coupled Nonlocal Damage and Plasticity; Structural and Material Size Effects; The Future

The book begins with fundamentals of oxidation and corrosion. Various concepts relating to the modification or deterioration of mechanical properties when material is exposed to an aggressive environment compared to an inert environment or vacuum are also covered. Other chapters highlight the behavior of various advanced materials to high temperature conditions, an important high temperature effect called Active Element Effect, and many high temperature coatings and their behavior.

FLEXOELECTRICITY IN SOLIDS

From Theory to Applications

edited by Alexander K Tagantsev (Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (EPFL), Switzerland) & Petr V Yudin (Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (EPFL), Switzerland) This unique compendium is devoted to flexoelectricity — the response of polarization to a strain gradient. The effect is analogous to piezoelectricity which is the response of polarization to strain itself. In contrast to piezoelectricity, which appears only in non-centrosymmetric materials, flexoelectric effect is allowed by symmetry in any materials. It becomes appreciable in nano-scale systems, where large strain gradients arise. The book discusses different nano-scale manifestations of the effect ranging from repulsion of acoustic and optic branches of materials to flexoelectricity in domain walls. It mainly caters for scientists, engineers and students.

PROBLEMS BOOK FOR PROBABILISTIC METHODS FOR THE THEORY OF STRUCTURES WITH COMPLETE WORKED THROUGH SOLUTIONS

by Isaac Elishakoff (Florida Atlantic University, USA)

Unmanned Systems

The first edition of the combined monograph and textbook Probabilistic Methods in the Theory of Structures was published by WileyInterscience in 1983. 1n 1999, Dover Publications, Inc. published its second edition under shorter title Probabilistic Theory of Structures. Now, World Scientific has expanded into a 3rd edition to include Problems with Complete Worked-Through Solutions. This compendium of solutions was written in response to requests by numerous university educators around the world, since it has been adopted as a textbook or an additional reading for both undergraduate and graduate courses. Readership: Researchers and academics into the theory of structures. 260pp 978-981-3201-10-1 978-981-3201-11-8(pbk)

COST ANALYSIS OF ELECTRONIC SYSTEMS (2nd Edition)

by Peter Sandborn (University of Maryland, USA) Key Features: • The majority of engineering education (and specifically electronic systems focused education) is almost exclusively focused on designing and manufacturing systems, ignoring the support and sustainment of systems. Part II of this book focuses specifically on post-manufacturing life-cycle costs associated with sustaining systems over long periods of time • This book is electronics focused. While many aspects of the book could be applied to just about any type of system, the specific example used and topics covered are particularly relevant to electronics Readership: Graduate students and professionals in electrical and electronic engineering, mechanical engineering and industrial engineering. 576pp 978-981-3148-25-3
