Wind energy is a reliable, natural and renewable electrical power supply. The high installed capacity of today’s wind turbines and decreasing plant costs have shown that wind power can be competitive with conventional, more heavily polluting, fuels in the long term. Focusing on the electrical engineering aspects of wind energy, this completely revised edition provides a detailed treatment of electrical and mechanical components and their interdependency, power control and supervision in wind power plants, and the grid integration facility. The book incorporates all the recent technical developments in electrical power conversion systems and essential operating conditions. Provides guidelines for the design, construction and installation of wind power plants Presents the history of wind technology, wind resources and economics of wind energy generation Introduces operating results and cost considerations Describes the fundamental characteristics and...

An ideal first text on communication systems in electrical engineering, Modern Digital and Analog Communication Systems is now in its fourth edition. Retaining the superb pedagogical style of the first three editions, the authors first introduce the fundamentals of signals and systems and core communication topics; they then present the tools essential to the design and analysis of digital communications. Featuring a seamless blend of mathematics and heuristics, carefully crafted examples to clarify mathematical abstractions, and new and updated MATLAB exercises, this text provides a thorough coverage of modern communication system theory and application that is easily accessible to students. Modern Digital and Analog Communication Systems is suitable for students with or without prior knowledge of probability theory. Only after laying a solid foundation in how communication systems work do the authors delve into analyses of communication systems that require probability theory and...

The central role that Reservoir engineers play in a field's development and planning, cannot be underestimated. Recommending, the most appropriate and most cost effective reservoir depletion schemes has a great impact on a field's and ultimately a company's profitability. If done correctly, it will result in a windfall for the company but if done incorrectly or haphazardly, it will result in financial disaster. Advanced Reservoir Engineering, 2nd Edition provides reservoir engineers with valuable insight into the tools, techniques and science of efficient oil recovery even in the most difficult fields. Reorganized for ease of use and with 40% new information, this new edition represents a 50% update over the previous edition. The main objective of the book is to continue to provide practicing engineers and engineering students with an understanding of day-to-day reservoir engineering operations and problems and how to maintain and solve them.Concise and readable, this new edition...

Principles of Planning Law discusses the principles that underlie planning law in Australia. Rather than focusing entirely on the statutory regime of planning in each State/Territory, it considers the decisions of courts and statutes and relates the principles to the particular Australian planning systems by way of example. The book goes behind the decisions to critically examine the issues in the system both where planning schemes may have gone wrong or are confused in different areas and where planning and planning law has emerged in different forms in each State and Territory.

A physicist explores the science of speed racing With 75 million fans, NASCAR is the #1 spectator sport in America. Now, in The Physics of NASCAR, a scientist explains the intricate and complex way the sport works, in terms that anyone who drives a car?or maybe occasionally looks under the hood?can easily comprehend. Based on her extensive access to NASCAR race shops, drivers, crew chiefs, engine builders, and pit crews during races, Diandra Leslie-Pelecky traces the life cycle of a race car from its creation at top race shops to competing in the door-todoor action of the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series.
