Dielectric Materials Introduction, Research and Applications


Free Download Ram Naresh Prasad Choudhary, "Dielectric Materials: Introduction, Research and Applications "
English | ISBN: 1607410397 | 2009 | 152 pages | PDF | 5 MB
In reviewing the growth, development and properties of dielectrics, it is worth discussing the issues of creating new materials and understanding the origin of the properties shown with external stimuli. Beginning with a brief summary of the history of the dielectric materials, this review focuses on the chronological development and recent works with possible future applications. At present, the broad class of dielectrics becomes interesting from the point of view of its diverse applications in various fields. Solid dielectrics are perhaps the most commonly used dielectrics in electrical engineering, and many solids are very good insulators. As we know, solids may be classified according to various criteria: (i) structure (as crystalline and non-crystalline solids); (ii) electrical conductivity (conductors, semiconductors and insulators); (iii) the existence of some basic properties. Dielectric materials can be divided into 32 crystal classes or point groups.

Composite Materials in Engineering Structures


Free Download Jennifer M. Davis, "Composite Materials in Engineering Structures "
English | ISBN: 1617288578 | 2011 | 417 pages | PDF | 17 MB
Composite materials such as fiber-reinforced composites, aggregate composites, and natural fiber reinforced composites have been used widely in engineering structures in various industries. Composite laminates, especially fiber reinforced metal laminates (FRMLs) have been used extensively in aerospace structures. Composite laminates are materials that involve some combination on a macroscopic scale of two or more different primary structural engineering constituents such as polymers, metals, ceramics and glasses. This book presents current research from across the globe in the study of composite materials, including the effects of thermo-oxidation on composite materials and structures at high temperatures; damping in composite materials; fatigue and fracture of short fiber composites; and, solutions for postbuckling of composite beams.

The Development of Gas Turbine Materials


Free Download The Development of Gas Turbine Materials by G. W. Meetham
English | PDF | 1981 | 310 Pages | ISBN : 0853349525 | 28.1 MB
The turbine has many advantages over other prime movers for producing power. The first turbine used water as the working fluid and this principle is still used in hydro-electric power generation. The steam turbine was developed late in the nineteenth century and was first applied to marine propulsion by Parsons in 1897. Since that time it has become the most widely used prime mover in electricity generation and marine propulsion. The equipment required to generate steam is bulky however and it was realised that much more compact power plant could be designed if the hot gases used for steam generation could drive the turbine directly. Early attempts to produce gas turbines were unsuccessful for several reasons, one major problem being that materials with the capability of operating at sufficiently high stresses and temperatures were not available. Following the first experimental Whittle engine in 1937, the emphasis on the development of the gas turbine engine for aircraft propulsion during World War II changed this situation dramatically. Gas turbine powered civil aircraft entered airline service in the early 1950s and gas turbines also began to compete successfully in other fields. Apart from the aircraft market, they have been used widely in pumping sets for oil and gas transmission pipelines and peak load electricity generation. Use in warship propulsion is increasing and there is currently major activity, in the USA in particular, in developments for vehicular propulsion.

Electronic Properties of Materials

Books are seldom finished. At best, they are abandoned. The second edition of "Electronic Properties of Materials" has been in use now for about seven years. During this time my ✅Publisher gave me ample opportunities to update and improve the text whenever the Ibook was reprinted. There were about six of these reprinting cycles. Eventually, however, it became clear that substantially more new material had to be added to account for the stormy developments which occurred in the field of electrical, optical, and magnetic materials. In particular, expanded sections on flat-panel displays (liquid crystals, electroluminescence devices, field emission displays, and plasma dis. : plays) were added. Further, the recent developments in blue- and green emitting LED’s and in photonics are included. Magnetic storage devices also underwent rapid development. Thus, magneto-optical memories, magneto resistance devices, and new’ magnetic materials needed to be covered. The sections on dielectric properties, ferroelectricity, piezoelectricity, electrostric tion, and thermoelectric properties have been expanded. Of course, the entire text was critically reviewed, updated, and improved. However, the most extensive change I undertook was the conversion of all equations to SI units throughout. In most of the world and in virtually all of the interna tional scientific journals use of this system of units is required. If today’s students do not learn to utilize it, another generation is "lost" on this matter. In other words, it is important that students become comfortable with SI units.
