Onshore and Offshore Wind Energy
A highly accessible and authoritative account of wind energy’s scientific background, current technology, and international status, with an emphasis on large turbines and wind farms, both onshore and offshore Topics covered include: a brief history of wind energy the nature of the wind turbine aerodynamics, mechanics, and electrics wind farms offshore opportunities and challenges grid integration of wind energy economic and environmental aspects Whilst intellectually rigorous, this is not an academic treatise. Key equations are fully discussed, providing essential theoretical background. The text is supported by copious illustrations and about 50 inspiring full-colour photographs from arou...

Introductory Digital Signal Processing with Computer Applications, SOL 2 Rev t/a
Digital signal processing has progressed rapidly from a specialist research topic to one with practical applications in many disciplines, including branches of engineering and science which involve data acquisition, such as meterology, physics and information systems. This book aims to provide students with an introductory, one-term course in the subject, using a considerable number of computer programmes to illustrate the text. A number of worked examples have been included in order to illustrate and develop important ideas and design techniques. Problems designed to test and consolidate work already undertaken are supplied at the end of each chapter, and selected answers are given at the end of the book.
Lost King's Lynn
Fully illustrated description of King’s Lynn well known, and lesser known, places that have been lost over the years.
Electricity from Wave and Tide
A concise yet technically authoritative overview of modern marine energy devices with the goal of sustainable electricity generation With 165 full-colour illustrations and photographs of devices at an advanced stage, the book provides inspiring case studies of today’s most promising marine energy devices and developments, including full-scale grid-connected prototypes tested in sea conditions. It also covers the European Marine Energy Centre (EMEC) in Orkney, Scotland, where many of the devices are assessed. Topics discussed: global resources – drawing energy from the World’s waves and tides history of wave and tidal stream systems theoretical background to modern developments conversi...
Electricity from Sunlight
A lively and authoritative account of today’s photovoltaic (PV) technology and its practical applications This book covers areas including: a brief history of PV, and the current international scene; the scientific principles of solar cells including silicon and new thin-film varieties; PV modules and arrays; grid-connected PV, from home systems up to large power plants; the wide diversity of stand-alone PV systems, and; the economic and environmental aspects of solar electricity. Key equations and numerical examples are fully discussed, providing essential theoretical background. The text is supported by copious illustrations and more than eighty inspiring full colour photographs from around the world to demonstrate PV’s huge range of practical applications. This book is aimed at a wide readership including professionals working in related areas, and students taking introductory courses in PV and renewable energy. Its style and level will also appeal to energy planners and decision makers, members of environmental organisations, and the increasing number of people interested in generating their own electricity from sunlight.
