Elementary Principles of Chemical Processes

Gain a better understanding of chemical processes.

This text will provide you with a realistic, informative introduction to chemical processes. This 3rd edition has been completely revised to provide you with increased clarity, including:

* Hundreds of new and revised problems and new case studies cover a broader spectrum of chemical engineering applications.
* Guidance for solving problems that require spread sheeting and equation-solving software.
* A CD-ROM that provides an active learning environment. With this software, students respond to questions and receive immediate feedback, explore variations in process parameters and see the effect of their changes on process operations, and more.
* 2005 Edition icons in the text margin let you know when it's most helpful to use the ICPP CD-ROM and the Student Workbook.

Advanced Analysis of Gene Expression Microarray Data (Science, Engineering, and Biology Informatics)

This book focuses on the development and application of the latest advanced data mining, machine learning, and visualization techniques for the identification of interesting, significant, and novel patterns in gene expression microarray data. Biomedical researchers will find this book invaluable for learning the cutting-edge methods for analyzing gene expression microarray data. Specifically, the coverage includes the following state-of-the-art methods: gene-based analysis - the latest novel clustering algorithms to identify co-expressed genes and coherent patterns in gene expression microarray data sets; sample-based analysis - supervised and unsupervised methods for the reduction of the gene dimensionality to select significant genes. A series of approaches to disease classification and discovery are also described; pattern-based analysis - methods for ascertaining the relationship between (subsets of) genes and (subsets of) samples. Various novel pattern-based clustering algorithms to find the coherent patterns embedded in the sub-attribute spaces are discussed; and visualization tools - various methods for gene expression data visualization. The visualization process is intended to transform the gene expression data set from high-dimensional space into a more easily understood two- or three-dimensional space.

An Introduction to Mechanical Engineering (Paperback)

Review
"The introductory chapter does a handsome job of explaining what Mechanical Engineering is and what Mechanical Engineers do...it draws the potential student a very accurate picture of the profession while also drawing the student more deeply into the excitement of Mechanical Engineering."

"I believe the author does an excellent job of taking his audience along at a comfortable and appropriate pace. Additionally, he does a good job of building his reader’s knowledge base as he proceeds through the text. The author’s communication skills are excellent." --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Product Description
This richly illustrated text reflects the experiences and philosophy of the author as is presented in his introductory course, Fundamentals of Mechanical Engineering, currently being taught at Iowa State University. Dr. Wickert introduces students to the vocabulary, skills, applications, and excitement of the mechanical engineering profession. The text balances problem solving skills, communications skills, design engineering analysis, real world applications and practical technology.

Electrical Engineering 101, Second Edition: Everything You Should Have Learned in School...but Probably Didn't (w/ CD) (Paperback)

Review
"Ashby takes a very practical approach, including a chapter on using tools, and he doesn't leave off on how to use soldering irons. He encourages the strenuous use of people as well-especially of field-applications engineers, which I didn't know existed until I became one upon graduation." - Rick Nelson, Chief Editor, Test &
Measurement World "This softcover book is aimed at those of you who want a refresher course in electrical engineering or those of you who need to bone up on the subject but don't have the background in it." - Melanie Martella, Sensors Magazine "One of the best parts of the book is what is termed 'Touchy Feely' and is based around recognising different types of people and how to relate to others, especially your managers and co workers. There is lots of great advice, the first implied bit is recognising who you are and having the honesty to admit it." --Barry Kirby CEng MIET, The IET
