Textbook of Algae
Algae is the basic component in the living world since pre-historic times. It has great impact on biological science, environment and directly on the human society. Algae is not only the branch of Botany, it’s a combination of both Botany and other branches of biology. The book provides a comprehensive and up-to-date information of applied phycology, classification, life histories of selected genera under Cyanophyta, Prochlorophyta, Glaucophyta, Chlorophyta, Rhodophyta, Heterokontophyta, Euglenophyta, Dinophyta, Cryptophyta, Prymnesiophyta, Chlorarachniophyta and Phylogeny along with the modern development of algal research. This is a textbook for the undergraduate and postgraduate student of Botany and Biology.
APPLIED THERMODYNAMICS
Applied Thermodynamics deals with engineering systems and devices which are designed using the laws and principles of basic engineering thermodynamics and deliver power output, pressure rise, kinetic energy rise, thrust, cooling and heating effects depending upon the use of systems and devices under operation. Starting with review of basic engineering thermodynamics, the book goes on to discuss steam generators including draft needed and performance, steam engines, internal combustion engines and their testing and performance, positive displacement and dynamic compressors, nozzles and diffusers, steam turbines, condensers and cooling towers, gas turbines and their components, jet propulsion, lubrication, nuclear engineering; and combined, co-generation, and mixed cycle power plants. The book is suitable as Text for B.E/ B. Tech of Mechanical, Production, and Aeronautical Engineering students appearing in university, UPSC and GATE examinations.
Maintenance, Repair, Rehabilitation and Retrofitting Of Structures
Reinforced concrete structures have always been the first choice for the construction industry world over. This composite material has proved its robustness and versatility beyond doubts. However, these structures are subjected to constant deterioration due to effects of ageing, inadequate maintenance, severe environmental exposure, penetration of catalystic agencies such as moisture, gases like CO2 and oxygen, chloride ions, industrial pollutants, abuse (overused and misused), etc. This deterioration needs to be timely arrested before it leads to irreversible damage making it imperative to repair and upgrade (retrofit/strengthening) the current stock of deteriorated and deficient structures...
Textbook of Immunology
Over the last few decades, immunology has seen unprecedented growth in terms of discovery and inventions. The book, ‘Textbook of Immunology’ is an attempt to introduce undergraduate students of Zoology, Life Sciences, Microbiology, Biosciences, Medicine and Veterinary Sciences to basic immunology and also to apprise them with the latest developments in the field. An attempt has been made to give complete coverage to all the key topics in immunology without excessive detail or abstract theoretical discussions. The aim of the book is to make the study of immunology accessible yet interesting for the learners.
Learn Simulink
Simulink has become one of the most widely used engineering software packages in academics and industry. The framework of this book is intended to highlight the essential facets of Simulink modelling. The chapters are constructed in order to ensure each topic builds on the research that came preceding it. The concise explanations and illustrative examples have been used to simplify the complex concepts and techniques. The book gives a thorough understanding of the Simulink modelling environment. It is a comprehensive, hands-on Simulink tutorial. The book demonstrates how Simulink can be adopted efficiently in a range of engineering applications.
Control Systems
In modern era, a control system plays a vital role in human life. A control system is an interconnection of components forming a system configuration in which quantity of interest is maintained or altered in accordance with a desired manner. This book covers various aspects of control systems like reduction techniques of multiple systems, time response analysis of the three orders of control systems and steady state error of different systems. While delving into the finer details of the subject, the book explains different components of control system like actuators, sensors, etc. As the learners progress with these components, the book explains the stability of control system which affects ...
Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning
This book is designed for undergraduates, postgraduates and professionals who want to have a firm grip on the fundamental principles of AI and ML. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a broad area of knowledge which has percolated into every aspect of human life. ‘Machine Learning algorithms’ are considered to be a subset of AI Theory, mathematics and coding are three aspects to any topic in AI. This book covers the most relevant topics in the field of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (ML). The subdivisions of Machine Learning are Supervised, Unsupervised and Reinforcement learning. All three are covered in sufficient depth. One very important and upcoming field of application is ...
Engineering Economics and Costing
Engineering Economics and Costing focuses on two most important components of Cost and Economics for engineers. Engineers should have the knowledge of cost how the cost elements are built up in different industries like, Manufacturing Industries, Process Industries and even Job Shops. The underlying belief is that only with the pertinent knowledge engineers can control and improve cost. The interesting thing is that they are the creator of cost. There are some Core Competencies which should also be known to them. Those Core Competencies are essential for better Cost Management. These Core Competencies are: Cost Model; Cost Estimate; Pareto Diagram; Ishikawa Diagram; Payback Period; Return on...
Toxicity and Bioremediation of Selected Xenobiotic Compounds
This book evaluates and assesses the toxicity, mode of action of xenobiotic compounds like 2,4-D ethyl ester (herbicide), pencycuron (fungicide), Anthracene (ANT) and Pyrene (PYR) (PAHs) on selected species of microorganism: Cyanobacteria—Nostoc muscorum Agardh, Anabaena—fertilissima Rao, and Synechocystis sp.; Bacteria—Bacillus benzoevorans and Pseudomonas indoxyladons with Synechocystis sp. and consortium separately and its biotransformation into nontoxic forms. The book broadly deals with: Mode of action of xenobiotics by measuring their toxicity, impact on growth, pigments, biochemical, enzymatic and morphological variations; Further to understand their toxicity and molecular mechanism, functional group variations by FTIR, change in expression of protein profile by SDS PAGE and genomic DNA profiling by Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA (RAPD) and molecular characterization by 16S rDNA amplification in response to various doses; and Their biotransformants and reduction of applied xenobiotics compounds during bioremediation process by selected species of cyanobacteria, bacteria and consortium in vitro and ex situ (microcosm).
Green and Clean Technology: Innovations and Applications
Green technology is the application of the environmental science and technology for the development and application of products, equipment and systems to conserve the natural resources and environmental management, as well as to minimize or mitigate the harmful effects on the environment by the mankind. Whereas ‘green technology’ is a fascinating term, it expresses the meaning effectively as ‘clean technology’ or in the classical approach ‘environmental technology’. The field of green technology emphasizes constantly evolving areas of environment friendly methods, protocols, principles, techniques, materials, equipment, software & hardware, intelligence & learning, rules & regulations, from technologies for developing non-conventional energy sources such as biofuels to ecofriendly solar power management as greener tools that help in auditing greenhouse gas emissions. Green and clean technology must be sustainable, that is, balancing the fulfilment of human needs without greed, with the protection and conservation of the natural environment and all the resources so that these needs can be met for the present and the future.
