Wear of Materials
The 14th International Conference on Wear of Materials took place in Washington, DC, USA, 30 March - 3 April 2003. These proceedings contain over two-hundred peer reviewed papers containing the best research, technical developments and engineering case studies from around the world. Biomaterials and nano-tribology receive special attention in this collection reflecting the general trends in the field. Further highlights include a focus on the new generation of instrumentation to probe wear at increasingly small scales. Approximately ninety communications and case studies, a popular format for the academic community have also been included, enabling the inclusion of the most up-to-date research. Over 200 peer-reviewed papers including hot topics such as biomaterials and nano-tribology Keeping you up-to-date with the latest research from leading experts Includes communications and case studies
Introduction to Mechanical Engineering
Updated throughout for the second edition, Introduction to Mechanical Engineering: Part 1 continues to be the essential text for all first-year undergraduate students, alongside those studying for foundation degrees and HNDs. Written by an experienced team of lecturers at the internationally renowned University of Nottingham, this book provides a comprehensive grounding in the following core engineering topics: thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, solid mechanics, dynamics, electrical and electronic systems and material science. It includes questions and answers for instructors and for self-guided learning. As well as mechanical engineers, this book is highly relevant to civil, automotive and aerospace engineering students.

15th Wear of Materials
These proceedings of the 15th International Conference on Wear of Materials focus on the friction and wear of materials in various applications under different environments from the nanometer scale to the meter scale. The conference provides a unique international forum for researchers and practitioners from different disciplines to exchange latest results. Coverage includes: . Wear assessment and monitoring . Wear modeling, mechanisms, mapping and prediction . Wear-corrosion testing and control . Surface engineering for wear and wear-corrosion control . Development of new wear test methods and wear test methodologies . Wear of materials for biomedical applications . Wear of non-equilibrium materials: from atomic dimensions to the micro-scale . Wear of hard and superhard materials . Wear of materials in the earthmoving, minerals processing and mining industries
Emerging Sustainable and Renewable Composites
This edited volume presents a comprehensive discussion of emerging sustainable and renewable composites from tropical fibres and provides an in-depth analysis of their prospective applications as replacements for conventional petroleum-based packaging and the challenges regarding this. Readers will gain a comprehensive understanding of the development and characterization of sustainable and renewable composites from fibres such as sugar palm, kenaf, sisal, curau, and coir. They will also learn about new potential materials from such fibres and their potential use in various nanoelectronics applications. Each chapter provides recent insight from some of the field’s most prominent industry a...
Surface Engineering
Surface engineering is considered an important aspect in the reduction of friction and wear. This reference text discusses a wide range of surface engineering technologies along with applications in a comprehensive manner. The book describes various methods in surface engineering technology with a thorough explanation of various aspects of each process that comes under this domain. Apart from an enhanced explanation of the process and its attributes, this book also gives insight into the types of materials, applications, and optimization of surface engineering techniques. It discusses important topics including surface engineering of the functionality of graded materials, materials character...
America's Best, Britain's Finest
What is a mixed movie? A film to which artists of various nationalities contribute. Popular examples are "Land of the Pharaohs," "The Bridge on the River Kwai," "Casino Royale" and "The Sundowners." British players like Errol Flynn, Stewart Granger, Rex Harrison and James Mason have always been welcome in Hollywood. Not so well known are the numerous examples of American actors who lent their talents to British films, such as Robert Ayres, Phyllis Kirk, Mona Freeman, Frank Sinatra, Carol Lynley, William Bendix, Russ Tamblyn, William Holden, Raquel Welch, Joan Crawford, Gene Tierney, Van Johnson, Vincent Price, Tab Hunter, Alex Nicol, Zachary Scott, and Wayne Morris, to mention but a few such appearances that are detailed in this book.
Keep Watching the Skies!
Bill Warren's Keep Watching the Skies! was originally published in two volumes, in 1982 and 1986. It was then greatly expanded in what we called the 21st Century Edition, with new entries on several films and revisions and expansions of the commentary on every film. In addition to a detailed plot synopsis, full cast and credit listings, and an overview of the critical reception of each film, Warren delivers richly informative assessments of the films and a wealth of insights and anecdotes about their making. The book contains 273 photographs (many rare, 35 in color), has seven useful appendices, and concludes with an enormous index. This book is also available in hardcover format (ISBN 978-0-7864-4230-0).
British Movie Entertainments on Vhs and DVD: A Classic Movie Fan's Guide
Unlike their American colleagues, British suppliers were extremely slow to release their country's superb libraries of classic films for movie fans to purchase on either VHS tapes or DVD discs. In 2004, little over 100 titles were available. But now there are around 700, with promises of many more to come. This book details some of the best. Over 400 movies in all are described in either minute detail or in summary form! The quality (or lack of quality) in the DVD transfer is fearlessly indicated. The author's emphasis is on movies made before 1970, especially those with popular stars such as Glynis Johns, Gracie Fields, George Formby, Margaret Lockwood, Arthur Askey, Anna Neagle, James Mason, Patricia Roc, Stewart Granger, Vivien Leigh, Laurence Olivier, Will Hay, Tommy Trinder, Alec Guinness, Michael Wilding, Peter Finch, Christopher Lee, Peter Sellers, David Niven, Kenneth More, Kay Kendall, John Gregson, etc.
