This new volume discusses -- in business and engineering terms -- the reinvention of the product development process. It addresses the tough questions about time-to-market and time-to-money in light of recent advances, such as those in predictive engineering software capabilities and in workstations that bring the power of supercomputers to an engineer's desk. Examining current technology and its implications for your future success or failure, Howard C. Crabb demonstrates how your company can integrate advances into your existing systems and organization. Dr. Crabb is president and CEO of Interactive Computer Engineering. He had over 30 years of experience at Ford Motor Company, where he pioneered the concept of visual engineering -- the representation of CAD data as realistic images.

This popular book is a collection of myths, mistakes, and lessons learned from practicing engineers involved in the field of electronic equipment cooling. Through entertaining anecdotes and stories based on his experience at Tellabs Operations, Inc. Tony Kordyban covers basic dimensions of heat transfer concepts--mostly from real problems which were incorrectly solved at least once before a correct technique was applied. The book's 31 chapters, each on an important and relevant topic, contain simple line drawings to help illustrate the basic concepts, while the text provides accurate and complete technical explanations. The book's case study approach makes it an extremely useful and handy reference--and Kordyban's clear and entertaining writing style mixes technical subject matter with humor and is both iinteresting and instructive.

Part I contains vital introductory material about each major failure class and gives perspective on the role of that failure in component performance. The author presents specific background on diagnosis by failure morphology, relevant literature, general concepts of failure classification, and distinguishing features. Part II offers more than 500 reference images accompanied by interpretive text. This comprehensive visual identification material provides the diagnostician with a ready comparison with observed failures. Each plate image carries a list of specimen and image data, plus descriptions of failure mode, image details, and failure cause.

A reference on both aircraft and industrial turbines, Turbine Design: The Effect on Axial Flow Turbine Performance of Parameter Variation details specific methods for optimization and design. A rotary machinery consultant and design engineer, the author examines how to investigate and fix the initial scantling selections, for input, to analysis, of CFD computer programs. He presents a method of selecting the best compromise turbine design, taking into account a range of parameters, including size, stress and number of stages. Used to design many turbines, FieldingAs method enables a designer to select the best compromise to ensure performance acceptability. The method uses correlations to investigate both the direct and the indirect problems.Contents Include: Basic Turbine Design Selection of Parameters Blade Efficiency and Shaft Efficiency Work Parameter and Flow Coefficient Degree of Reaction Minimum Hub/Tip Ration Minimum Exit Mach Number and Reynolds Number General Parameters Effect of Stress on Turbine Efficiency State Calculations Introduction Profile loss and Optimum Space/Chord Ratio Secondary and Leakage Loss Coefficients Three Dimensional Considerations State Thermodynamic Calculations Thermodynamics and Blade Shapes Relating Thermodynamic Calculations to Physical Blade Efflux Angle Prediction from a Blade Row Design Example Design and Test of a Single Stage Turbine Selection of Parameters Detailed Thermodynamic Design Comparison of Design Prediction and Test Results Index &amp; References.

Now in a hardbound format, this extensive source of crack stress analysis information is nearly double the size of the previous edition. Along with revisions, the authors provide 150 new pages of analysis and information. This classic volume can serve as an excellent reference, as well as a text for in-house training courses in various industries and academic settings.

Until now there has been no common way of collecting, structuring, and formalizing the engineering knowledge associated with designs. This not only makes it hard to plan and organize the process of building knowledge-based engineering applications, but it also means that updating them and reusing modules is almost impossible. Moka - methodology and software tools oriented to knowledge-based engineering applications - was created to fill this need. It is a practical tool to help those involved with building systems that represent knowledge, rather than a set of academic principles.

With an increased demand on system reliability and performance combined with the miniaturization of devices, thermal consideration has become a crucial factor in the design of electronic packaging, from chip to system levels. This new book emphasizes the solving of practical design problems in a wide range of subjects related to various heat transfer technologies. While focusing on understanding the physics involved in the subject area, the authors have provided substantial practical design data and empirical correlations used in the analysis and design of equipment. The book provides the fundamentals along with a step-by-step analysis approach to engineering, making it an indispensable reference volume. The authors present a comprehensive convective heat transfer catalog that includes correlations of heat transfer for various physical configurations and thermal boundary conditions. They also provide property tables of solids and fluids. Lian-Tuu Yeh and Richard Chu are recognized experts in the field of thermal management of electronic systems and have a combined 60 years of experience in the defense and commercial industries.
