By reporting on the latest new technological interventions for water...
This new volume examines the mathematical and experimental methods for advanced engineering materials and structures. It also helps to determine practical applications under a wide range of conditions, helping to set up what is needed to produce a new generation of new materials. The diversity of such mathematical models and experimental methods applied for different types of advanced materials and structures and their behavior is highlighted in this volume. The subjects covered in this book include geospatial information systems (GIS) and networked sensors modeling, mathematical modeling in fluid and solid mechanics, deformations in a nonlocal isotropic thermoelastic materials, optical prop...
This new book brings together innovative research, new concepts, and novel developments in the application of informatics tools for applied chemistry and computer science. It presents a modern approach to modeling and calculation and also looks at experimental design in applied chemistry and chemical engineering. The volume discusses the developments of advanced chemical products and respective tools to characterize and predict the chemical material properties and behavior. Providing numerous comparisons of different methods with one another and with different experiments, not only does this book summarize the classical theories, but it also exhibits their engineering applications in respons...
This work aims to present the practical application of an IoT model that can be used as the solution to the problems of water facilities. It presents IoT as one of the efficient tools for the control of a set of water and wastewater networks. Another novelty of this work is to investigate the utilization of remote sensing (RS) facilities equipped with networked sensors, advanced modems, data loggers, and the IoT in a case study. This volume is ideal for water industry personnel, academic staff, and master/research students in environmental engineering science.
Control and automation of water systems in one of the branches of fluid mechanics and hydraulics that uses numerical methods and algorithms to solve and analyze problems that involve fluid flows. Computers are used to perform the millions of calculations required to simulate the interaction of liquids and gases with surfaces defined by boundary conditions. Advances in Control and Automation of Water Systems presents topical research in the study of control and automation of water systems. The editors use the simulation of a water hammer (or fluid hammer) as the basis for demonstrating computational techniques used for the processing and automation of water systems. The simulation shows and e...
This valuable volume provides a broad understanding of the main computational techniques used for processing reclamation of fluid and solid mechanics. The aim of these computational techniques is to reduce and eliminate the risks of mechanical systems failure in hydraulic machines. Using many computational methods for mechanical engineering problems, the book presents not only a platform for solving problems but also provides a wealth of information to address various technical aspects of troubleshooting of mechanical system failure. The focus of the book is on practical and realistic fluids engineering experiences. Many photographs and figures are included, especially to illustrate new design applications and new instruments.

Cellular manufacturing (CM) is the grouping of similar products for manufacture in discrete multi-machine cells. It has been proven to yield faster production cycles, lower in-process inventory levels, and enhanced product quality. Pioneered on a large scale by Russian, British, and German manufacturers, interest in CM methods has grown steadily over the past decade. However, there continues to be a dearth of practical guides for industrial engineers and production managers interested in implementing CM techniques in their plants. Bringing together contributions by an international team of CM experts, the Handbook of Cellular Manufacturing Systems bridges this gap in the engineering literature.
A collection of essays examining the role and power of images from a wide variety of media in today’s Middle Eastern societies. This timely book examines the power and role of the image in modern Middle Eastern societies. The essays explore the role and function of image making to highlight the ways in which the images “speak” and what visual languages mean for the construction of Islamic subjectivities, the distribution of power, and the formation of identity and belonging. Visual Culture in the Modern Middle East addresses aspects of the visual in the Islamic world, including the presentation of Islam on television; on the internet and other digital media; in banners, posters, murals...
