EMC for Installers Electromagnetic Compatibility of Systems and Installations

EMC for Installers Electromagnetic Compatibility of Systems and Installations

The integration of electronics in large systems and installations steadily increases consider for example the emergence of the Industrial Internet of Things. Power consumption decreases while the operating speed increases making equipment potentially more vulnerable for interference. The responsibility of the installer is shifting towards that of the system integrator requiring more in-depth knowledge to achieve and maintain EMC during the technical and economical lifespan of the system or installation and the distinction between both diminishes. EMC for Installers: Electromagnetic Compatibility of Systems and Installations combines an integral risk based approached to EMC design and management with robust technical measures. Written by two experts who both started nearly three decades ago in EMC it provides guidance to those new in the field and servers as reference to those with experience. The book starts with the basic concept of EMC and evolves gradually towards more difficult topics. Particular attention is given to grounding concepts and the protection of cabling and wiring. This book puts a strong focus on passive means that are widely available for each installer: cable conduits used for cable routing can be exploited for significant improvement of the EMC-behavior of the system or installation. In addition it will be explained how to use standard metallic enclosures to enhance the EMC-performance. For most demanding situations shielded rooms and shielding cabinets are explained. This book describes pre-compliance and full-compliance testing tailored to large systems. Templates and checklists are provided for both risk and management and test management. Electromagnetic compatibility explained as simple as possible without over-simplifying. Practical approach with hands-on demonstrations based on an example installation. Learn how to exploit cable conduits used for cable routing anyway to improve the EMC performance of an installation. Learn how to exploit standard metallic enclosures to improve EMC in systems. Design of power distribution networks to minimize disturbing fields. Toolbox and templates for managing and sustaining EMC over a long lifetime. | EMC for Installers Electromagnetic Compatibility of Systems and Installations

Project Management for Research A Guide for Graduate Students

Project Management for Research A Guide for Graduate Students

Graduate research is a complicated process which many undergraduate students aspire to undertake. The complexity of the process can lead to failures for even the most brilliant students. Success at the graduate research level requires not only a high level of intellectual ability but also a high level of project management skills. Unfortunately many graduate students have trouble planning and implementing their research. Project Management for Research: A Guide for Graduate Students reflects the needs of today’s graduate students. All graduate students need mentoring and management guidance that has little to do with their actual classroom performance. Graduate students do a better job with their research programs if a self-paced guide is available to them. This book provides such a guide. It covers topics ranging from how to select an appropriate research problem to how to schedule and execute research tasks. The authors take a project management approach to planning and implementing graduate research in any discipline. They use a conversational tone to address the individual graduate student. This book helps graduate students and advisors answer most of the basic questions of conducting and presenting graduate research thereby alleviating frustration on the part of both student and advisor. It presents specific guidelines and examples throughout the text along with more detailed examples in reader-friendly appendices at the end. By being more organized and prepared to handle basic research management functions graduate students along with their advisors will have more time for actual intellectual mentoring and knowledge transfer resulting in a more rewarding research experience. | Project Management for Research A Guide for Graduate Students

Optics for Engineers

Optics for Engineers

The field of optics has become central to major developments in medical imaging remote sensing communication micro- and nanofabrication and consumer technology among other areas. Applications of optics are now found in products such as laser printers bar-code scanners and even mobile phones. There is a growing need for engineers to understand the principles of optics in order to develop new instruments and improve existing optical instrumentation. Based on a graduate course taught at Northeastern University Optics for Engineers provides a rigorous practical introduction to the field of optics. Drawing on his experience in industry the author presents the fundamentals of optics related to the problems encountered by engineers and researchers in designing and analyzing optical systems. Beginning with a history of optics the book introduces Maxwell‘s equations the wave equation and the eikonal equation which form the mathematical basis of the field of optics. It then leads readers through a discussion of geometric optics that is essential to most optics projects. The book also lays out the fundamentals of physical optics polarization interference and diffraction in sufficient depth to enable readers to solve many realistic problems. It continues the discussion of diffraction with some closed-form expressions for the important case of Gaussian beams. A chapter on coherence guides readers in understanding the applicability of the results in previous chapters and sets the stage for an exploration of Fourier optics. Addressing the importance of the measurement and quantification of light in determining the performance limits of optical systems the book then covers radiometry photometry and optical detection. It also introduces nonlinear optics. This comprehensive reference includes downloadable MATLAB code as well as numerous problems examples and illustrations. An introductory text for

Organ Preservation for Transplantation

Organ Preservation for Transplantation

The first edition of this book Basic Concepts in Organ Procurement Perfusion and Preservation for Transplantation was published 27 years ago in 1982 when organ procurement and preservation began to advance in the study of the best ways to preserve organs for transplantation. The second edition Organ Procurement and Preservation for Transplantation 2nd Edition followed 15 years later in 1997 with the goal of finding common denominators in the best preservation techniques for transplantation. In this current third edition 11 years after the second edition similar goals are still pursued of defining the best preservation methods but there is now more evidence including results and new advances have reached publication and are being incorporated into ischemia and reperfusion techniques and organ preservation studies. Many preservation solutions have been introduced important preservation solution components have been better defined and improved perfusion methods are being considered especially for the increasing number of organ donors with non-beating hearts who are being sought for transplantation. This edition (2009) engaged experts in the field of organ preservation to review update and rewrite each of the chapters. Crafted in collaboration with Luis H. Toledo-Pereyra the text is eminently informative and easily understandable. Each solid organ that can be transplanted has an entire chapter devoted to the particular methods of its preservation. One chapter apiece in other words features insights on the preservation of the kidney the liver the pancreas the small bowel the heart and the heart-lung. The title of the present book has been shortened to better represent its content. Thus Organ Preservation for Transplantation 3rd Edition demonstrates a more accurate depiction of its current status. Nevertheless the goal of this book remains exactly the same as in the first edition that is “to analyze the most important aspects of organ procurement perfusion and preservation for transplantation”.
