Everyday Engineering: Understanding the Marvels of Daily Life


NOT A BOOK
    Great masterpieces of engineering are everywhere. As soon as you get out of bed in the morning, you are putting centuries of scientific and mechanical ingenuity to use. So familiar are these structures, inventions, and services that they are all but invisible. Yet they are just as remarkable as great works such as the Parthenon, the Eiffel Tower, and the Panama Canal.One of the pleasures of Everyday Engineering is the meticulous care that Dr. Ressler has taken in preparing over 150 working models that explain everything from an arch dam to the universal joint in a car's drive shaft. He also delights in the unexpected: in the last lecture he switches gears by examining a famous case when technology failed during the Great Northeast Blackout of 2003. Triggered by high electrical demand during a sweltering summer day, a short circuit due to overgrown trees, and a software bug that disabled a control room alarm system, the cascading series of breakdowns produced the worst-ever electric power blackout in North America. This incident serves as a graduation exercise for the course. Having explored the workings of the electrical power grid in previous lectures, you'll find that you understand the crisis in perfect detail. Indeed, you'll be ready to apply your broad understanding of everyday engineering to any technological issue that crosses your path in the future.

Evelyn’s constant need for perfection has blown some fuses among her robotics teammates, and she’s worried nobody’s taking the upcoming competition seriously. Allie is new to school, and she’s had a history of short-circuiting on teachers and other kids.So when Allie is assigned to the robotics team as a last resort, all Evelyn can see is just another wrench in the works! But as Allie confronts a past stricken with grief and learns to open up, the gears click into place as she discovers that Evelyn’s teammates have a lot to offer—if only Evelyn allowed them to participate in a role that plays to their strengths.Can Evelyn learn to let go and listen to what Allie has to say? Or will their spot in the competition go up in smoke along with their school’s robotics program and Allie’s only chance at redemption?An excellent pick for STEAM enthusiasts, this earnestly told narrative features a dual point of view and casually explores Autistic and LGBTQ+ identities.

BASIC CONCEPTS OF QUANTUM MECHANICS


Lev Tarasov
    The character of the physics of microparticles and the problems of the physics of microphenomena (interference of amplitudes, the principle of superposition, the specific nature of measuring processes, causality in quantum mechanics) are considered on the basis of concepts about probability amplitudes. Besides, the quantum-mechanical systems – microparticles – with two basic states are analyzed in detail. The apparatus of quantum mechanics is considered as a synthesis of concepts about physics and the theory of linear operators. A number of specially worked out problems and examples have been included in order to demonstrate the working of the apparatus.This book is meant for use by students of engineering and teachers-training institutes. It may also be used by engineers of different profiles.

Design Of Weldments


Omer W. Blodgett
    Over the 1950s and 1960s, recreational development converted small, rural communities into bustling "seasonal cities": urbanized pockets of development near natural amenities characterized by massive development projects, seasonal fluctuations in population, and recreational tourism as a foundation of the local economy. A new manifestation of capitalist pressures in the countryside, seasonal cities had dramatic environmental, social, and fiscal consequences for rural communities.;This study demonstrates that seasonal cities were important sites of environmental contestation, exerting a lasting influence on environmental politics and land use governance. Through analyses of seasonal cities in the Lake Tahoe Basin of California and Nevada, the Yampa Valley of Colorado, and the Green Mountains of Vermont, it shows that a diverse array of rural residents sought to safeguard public amenities--scenic beauty, wildlife habitat, clean water, open spaces, and solvent municipal services--from the development patterns that had so altered suburban areas. Challenging long-standing rural values, they fought for land use planning and government regulation of private land use. Their defense of the public good resulted in unprecedented state-level oversight of land use decisions.;The passage of state land use acts in the early 1970s marked a key epoch in environmental politics. Demonstrating an important shift in land use governance and a unique moment in America's ongoing relationship with federalism, many citizens held that state-level governance would better protect public amenities than local decision-making. The adoption of state land use acts further reflected a broad challenge to deeply-entrenched national values: the emphasis on economic growth as an unequivocal boon to the nation and the view of private property rights as sacrosanct. Despite the significance of state land use acts, their impact was muted by the changing economic and political climate. The weakening of most state land use acts over the late 1970s heralded the devolution of environmental controls and the strong reassertion of private property rights that occurred in late twentieth century environmental politics.

Digital Design Using Digilent FPGA Boards Verilog/Active-HDL Edition


Richard E. Haskell
    You start at the beginning learning about basic gates, logic equations, Boolean algebra, and Karnaugh maps. In over 75 examples we show you how to design digital circuits using Verilog, simulate them using the Aldec Active-HDL simulator, and synthesize the designs to a Xilinx Spartan3E FPGA on either the BASYS2TM (or BASYSTM) system board that can be purchased from Digilent, Inc (www.digilentinc.com) for $59 or the Nexys-2 board that costs $99. More recently, Digilent offers the Nexys-3 board with a Spartan-6 FPGA that costs $119. A free student edition of the Aldec Active-HDL simulator is available from Aldec, Inc. (www.aldec.com). To synthesize your designs to a Spartan3E FPGA you will need to download the free ISE WebPACK from Xilinx, Inc. (www.xilinx.com). The Xilinx synthesis tools are called from within the Aldec Active-HDL integrated GUI. We will use the Adept 2.1 utility to download your synthesized design to the Spartan3E or Spartan6 FPGA. Adept 2.1 can be downloaded free from Digilent, Inc. (www.digilentinc.com). You should use Adept 2.1 to download your bit files to either the BASYS2, Nexys-2, or Nexys-3 boards. All references to the BASYS board in this book apply to the newer BASYS2 board. The only difference is that if you are using the BASYS board, you must use the user constraints file (.ucf) for the BASYS board (basys.ucf), while if you are using the BAYSY2 board, you must use the user constraints file (.ucf) for the BASYS2 board (basys2board.ucf). Both of these user constraints (.ucf) files can be downloaded from http://www.lbebooks.com/downloads.htm.
