Underactuated Robotic Hands (Springer Tracts in Advanced Robotics)

Springer, 2008

Grasping and manipulation skills are at the core of the development of modern robotic systems. With the introduction of robotics in new applications involving unstructured environments (e.g. space, undersea, surgery), intelligent manipulation and grasping has become a crucial research area. The authors have developed an internationally recognized...

Radio Design in Nanometer Technologies

Springer, 2007

Radio Design in Nanometer Technologies addresses current trends and future directions in radio design for wireless applications. As radio transceivers constitute the major bottleneck in a wireless chipset in terms of power consumption and die size, the radio must be designed in the context of the entire system, end to end....

Nanoscale Devices - Fundamentals and Applications (NATO Science Series II: Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry)

Springer, 2006

Over the last decade the interest in nanoscale materials and their applications in novel electronic devices have been increasing tremendously. This is caused by the unique properties of nanoscale materials and the outstanding performance of nanoscale devices. The fascinating and often unrivalled properties of nanoscale materials and devices opened...

Modelling and Control of Dynamical Systems: Numerical Implementation in a Behavioral Framework (Studies in Computational Intelligence)

Springer, 2008

A paradigmatic perspective for modeling and control of physical systems has been used since a long time ago: The input/output approach. Although quite natural for our human experience, this perspective imposes a cause/effect framework to the system under study although such system may not have necessarily such cause/effect structure. Actually, from...

Optical Microresonators: Theory, Fabrication, and Applications (Springer Series in Optical Sciences)

Springer, 2007

Optical Micro-Resonators are an exciting new field of research that has gained prominence in the past few years due to the emergence of new fabrication technologies. This book is the first detailed text on the theory, fabrication, and applications of optical micro-resonators, and will be found useful by both graduate students and researchers in the...

Innovation in Life Cycle Engineering and Sustainable Development

Springer, 2006

The focus of this book is the consideration of environmental issues in engineering process and product design. It presents a selection of 30 papers ensuing from the 12th CIRP International seminar on Life Cycle Engineering, held at the university of Grenoble, France, in April 2005.

Sustainable development is more and more at the core of...

Kinetics of Catalytic Reactions--Solutions Manual

Springer, 2005

This advanced textbook teaches readers to design kinetic experiments involving heterogeneous catalysts, to characterize these catalysts, to acquire rate data, to find heat and mass transfer limitations in these data, to select reaction models, to derive rate expressions based on these models, and to assess the consistency of these rate equations....

Setting-Up a Small Observatory: From Concept to Construction (Patrick Moore's Practical Astronomy Series)

Springer, 2007

This is the book to tell the intermediate-level amateur astronomer what he needs to know about observatories. It draws on the author’s practical experience and that of many other experienced amateur astronomers.

It is an ideal complement to Patrick Moore’s More Small Astronomical Observatories which is a compendium of ideas for...

Mars, A Cosmic Stepping Stone: Uncovering Humanity's Cosmic Context

Springer, 2008

The questions of our origin and cosmic abundance of life are among the most compelling facing humanity. We have determined much about the nature and origin of the Universe and our place in it, but with virtually all evidence of our origin long since gone from our world and an unimaginably vast Universe still to explore, defining answers are...

A Practical Guide to Lightcurve Photometry and Analysis (Patrick Moore's Practical Astronomy Series)

Springer, 2006

The Practical Guide to Lightcurve Photometry and Analysis provides those with access to even a modest telescope and a CCD camera the background and detailed steps to take part in important astronomical research. Readers learn about the joint projects in which they can take part, as well as the techniques of gathering, analyzing, and then publishing...

Hilbert Space Operators in Quantum Physics (Theoretical and Mathematical Physics)

Springer, 2008

Some praise for the previous edition:

“I really enjoyed reading this work. It is very well written, by three real experts in the field. It stands quite alone....” (John R. Taylor, Professor of Physics and Presidential Teaching Scholar, University of Colorado at Boulder)

This course-tested book explains in detail the theory...

Solar Hydrogen Generation: Toward a Renewable Energy Future

Springer, 2008

Given the backdrop of intense interest and widespread discussion on the prospects of a hydrogen energy economy, this book aims to provide an authoritative and up-to-date scientific account of hydrogen generation using solar energy and renewable sources such as water. While the technological and economic aspects of solar hydrogen generation are...
