Without Fear
ISBN: 9781844019960 / Angielski / Miękka / 380 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Graeme Vivian Donald, a former pilot in the RAF, saw active service throughout World War II. Encouraged by a childhood friend, Donald learned to fly aeroplanes at the airfield near Masterton in New Zealand where he grew up. He accepted a commission in the summer of 1939, joining RAF Coastal Command shortly after war was declared. Without Fear will make fascinating reading for those with an interest in the RAF or aviation in general, but it also contains a great deal about the author's childhood and his life after the war, during which time he worked in civil aviation for KLM, started a family...

ISBN: 9781847480132 / Angielski / Miękka / 88 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. We were the daredevils of the world, weren't we - the dashing young aviators of World War II. We were supposed to find out whether we were going to live or die by daring the Devil, and I was never to be outdone in those early days. From early victories at school cricket, Owen Jack Bollam knew what it was like to feel invincible. After joining the Royal Air Force during the war, training as a pilot in the US and then becoming a flying instructor in the Royal Canadian Air Force, he found his great mission in life. Despite recounting some of the darkest days of world history, and commemorating...

Differential Quadrature and Its Application in Engineering
ISBN: 9781852332099 / Angielski / Twarda / 340 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In the past few years, the differential quadrature method has been applied extensively in engineering. This book, aimed primarily at practising engineers, scientists and graduate students, gives a systematic description of the mathematical fundamentals of differential quadrature and its detailed implementation in solving Helmholtz problems and problems of flow, structure and vibration. Differential quadrature provides a global approach to numerical discretization, which approximates the derivatives by a linear weighted sum of all the functional values in the whole domain. Following the...

Applied Interval Analysis: With Examples in Parameter and State Estimation, Robust Control and Robotics
ISBN: 9781852332198 / Angielski / Twarda / 379 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. At the core of many engineering problems is the solution of sets of equa- tions and inequalities, and the optimization of cost functions. Unfortunately, except in special cases, such as when a set of equations is linear in its un- knowns or when a convex cost function has to be minimized under convex constraints, the results obtained by conventional numerical methods are only local and cannot be guaranteed. This means, for example, that the actual global minimum of a cost function may not be reached, or that some global minimizers of this cost function may escape detection. By contrast,...

Computer Controlled Systems: Analysis and Design with Process-Orientated Models
ISBN: 9781852333072 / Angielski / Twarda / 486 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Digital elements such as signal processors, microcontrollers or industrial PCs are widely used for filtering and control of continuous-time processes or plants. Because of the serial operation mode of these digital elements the continuous time processes cannot be served continuously. That is why continuous-time and discrete-time signals occur simultaneously in systems of this kind. The continuous (real) time also contains the discrete time instants - therefore, a complete and accurate description of such systems in continuous time is pos sible. However, this description proves to be more...

Control of nonlinear systems, one of the most active research areas in control theory, has always been a domain of natural convergence of research interests in applied mathematics and control engineering. The theory has developed from the early phase of its history, when the basic tool was essentially only the Lyapunov second method, to the present day, where the mathematics ranges from differential geometry, calculus of variations, ordinary and partial differential equations, functional analysis, abstract algebra and stochastic processes, while the applications to advanced engineering design...
