This text emphasizes the basic physical concepts in bearing adoption, arrangement, housing, lubrication and sealants; alternate bearing types for specific projects; and unique solutions to bearing design problems.

"Analyzes a wide range of problem classes originating in applied mechanics, stressing the use of influence (Green's) functions in their analysis. Provides an extensive list of influence functions and matrices-several in print for the first time. Addresses areas such as fluid flow, acoustics, electromagnetism, heat transfer, and elasticity."

MEMS devices are finding increasingly widespread use in a variety of settings, from chemical and biological analysis to sensors and actuators in automotive applications. Along with this massive growth, the field is still experiencing growing pains as fabrication processes are refined and new applications are attempted. Anyone serious about entering the field must have a realistic knowledge of just what is possible with MEMS technologies as well as the myriad issues involved in fabrication and device integration.
Microengineering, MEMS, and Interfacing: A Practical Guide provides a...

Offering one of the field's most thorough treatments of material design principles, including a concise overview of fastener design, the Handbook of Mechanical Alloy Design provides an extensive overview of the effects of alloy compositional design on expected mechanical properties.

This reference highlights the design elements that must be considered in risk-based metallurgical design and covers alloy design for a broad range of materials, including the increasingly important powder metal and metal matrix alloys. It discusses the design issues associated with carbon, alloy, and...

Fills the niche between purely technical engineering texts and sophisticated engineering software guides-providing a pragmatic, common sense approach to analyzing and remedying electronic packaging configuration problems. Combines classical engineering techniques with modern computing to achieve optimum results in assessment cost and accuracy.

This volume describes some of the new research published since volume 1 of the series, Plant and fungal toxins, was published in 1983. A few chapters update topics previously treated, but most describe in depth the toxicologic and chemical aspects of other topics. Thus volumes 1 and 6 together prov
