Because they provide practical machine-to-machine communication at a very low cost, the popularity of wireless sensor networks is expected to skyrocket in the next few years, duplicating the recent explosion of wireless LANs. Wireless Sensor Networks: Architectures and Protocols describes how to build these networks, from the layers of the
The United States. The land of unimagined opportunities. A place of longing for many Germans for decades. This book describes why people from the Bavarian Forest emigrated to the United States from 1841 to 1931. Diverse documents from German and American archives, historical records, and maps, assembled over many years, are augmented by a wealth of authentic, fascinating letters, photographs, and diary entries from the emigrating families. Vivid conversations and meetings with present-day descendants bring the story full circle! You will experience · the hard life in the Bavarian Forest villages · the hopeful letters from America · the attempts of the authorities to thwart emigration plans · the arduous and often painful preparations for the trip · the adventure-filled, transatlantic crossing 'tween deck · the critical examinations on Ellis Island and · the difficult new beginning in the New World This book forms the basis of the exhibits in the "Born in Schiefweg" Emigration Museum in the Bavarian Forest. It also found its way into the permanent exhibition of the German Emigration Center in Bremerhaven, Germany.
Mathematical calculations for subsynchronous system modeling Subsynchronous Resonance in Power Systems provides in-depth guidance toward the parameters, modeling, and analysis of this complex subclass of power systems. Emphasizing field testing to determine the data required, this book facilitates thorough and efficient oscillation and damping modeling using eigenvalues of a system's linear model. Expert discussion provides step-by-step instruction for generator, network, and turbine-generator shaft models, followed by detailed tutorials for model testing and analysis based on IEEE, CORPALS, and SSR eigenvalue analysis. Comprehensive in scope and practical in focus, this book is an invaluable resource for anyone working with frequencies below 60 Hz.
In chapters culled from popular and critically acclaimed Electromagnetic Compatibility Handbook, Electromagnetic Shielding provides a tightly focused, convenient, and affordable reference for those interested primarily in this subset of topics. Author Kenneth L. Kaiser demystifies shielding and explains the source and limitations of the approximations, guidelines, models, and rules-of-thumb used in this field. The material is presented in a unique question-and-answer format that gets straight to the heart of each topic. The book includes numerous examples and uses Mathcad to generate all of the figures and many solutions to equations. In many cases, the entire Mathcad program is provided.

The first volume ever to cover all aspects of the subject, Architectural Electromagnetic Shielding Handbook provides the practicing architect/engineer with a comprehensive guide to electromagnetic shielding. This practical handbook is a one-stop source for every form of shielding enclosure now used in commercial and government test laboratories, communication and computer centers, and electromagnetic hardened facilities designed to prevent electromagnetic interference (EMI) from reaching either a sensitive piece of equipment or an unauthorized agency. Additional features include: extensive supporting information on penetrations such as doors, vents, piping, and electromagnetic filters for ea...
As the number of electrical devices in use continues to grow, so do the challenges of ensuring the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) of products and systems. Fortunately, engineers have at their disposal an array of approximations, models, and rules-of-thumb to help them meet those challenges. Unfortunately, the number of these tools and guidelines is overwhelming, and worse still is the thought of investigating their origins and confirming their results. The Electromagnetic Compatibility Handbook is an unprecedented compilation of the many approximations, guidelines, models, and rules-of-thumb used in EMC analyses, complete with their sources and their limitations. The book presents these...
