Nickel
This far-reaching report addresses nickel industry's key issues as it emerges from the roller-coaster ride of price volatility which has characterised it in recent years. In 2002 the indications are for an upswing in demand as industrial activity starts to pick up again: however, on the supply side it is unclear how much output will be realised from the "mega" projects that were announced that the end of the 1990s. Both nickel consumption and prices could be adversely affected in the future by environmental restrictions, increasing substitution of nickel-containing materials and the development of relatively low-grade lateritic nickel deposits. Up-to-date, in-depth research and analysis to m...

Lead and Zinc
Annotation Lead has come under attack from environmental legislation, but the lead industry is far from pessimistic about its prospects. Demand for lead for SLI batteries is rising, along with growth in new car demand in Eastern Europe, China, the rest of the Far East and Latin America, while in the developed world the demand for replacement SLI batteries is a constant and growing feature. Over 80% of all the lead now used in the US is for the production of lead-acid batteries. Global zinc mine output is expected to rise by 4.2% to 9Mt in 2001: this is mainly as a consequence of increased output at the Lisheen mine in Ireland, additions to capacity in Mexico and Peru, and a further rise in o...
Introduction to Wireless Communications and Networks
This book provides an intuitive and accessible introduction to the fundamentals of wireless communications and their tremendous impact on nearly every aspect of our lives. The author starts with basic information on physics and mathematics and then expands on it, helping readers understand fundamental concepts of RF systems and how they are designed. Covering diverse topics in wireless communication systems, including cellular and personal devices, satellite and space communication networks, telecommunication regulation, standardization and safety, the book combines theory and practice using problems from industry, and includes examples of day-to-day work in the field. It is divided into two parts – basic (fundamentals) and advanced (elected topics). Drawing on the author’s extensive training and industry experience in standards, public safety and regulations, the book includes information on what checks and balances are used by wireless engineers around the globe and address questions concerning safety, reliability and long-term operation. A full suite of classroom information is included.

The International Aluminium Cartel
Aluminium was one of most cartelised industries in the international economic panorama of the 20th century. Born following the discovery of electrolytic smelting process in 1886, this industry, even in its infancy, established a cartel which characterised its history until nearly 1980. Managers of the aluminium industry from various historical eras and countries shared the same vision about the development of their industry: to keep prices as stable as possible in order to encourage expansions and to provide return on investments. Price instability, which characterised the trade of other commodities, was unknown to the aluminium industry. This book neither argues that cartels are fundamental...
