This compendium of theory and practice brings together clearly and simply diagrammed (to cut, fold, and fly-them-yourself) winning planes and other notable entries from the 1st International Paper Airplane Competition, conducted by "Scientific American."

    And that means Mars G. Fontana's Corrosion Engineering gives quick access to the design data you need on all corrosives,with isocorrosion charts for accurate look-ups and coverage that includes 8 forms of wet and dry corrosion. . . environments from pulp and paper to nuclear waste isolation to seawater. . . testing techniques,including tests for plastics and elastomers. . and cost and product liability reduction via quality control and assurance.

    His careful presentation of the underlying theories of fluids is still timely and applicable, even in these days of almost limitless computer power. This reissue ensures that a new generation of graduate students experiences the elegance of Professor Batchelor's writing.

    

    Coverage includes Fourier transforms, Z transforms, linear and nonlinear programming, calculus of variations, random-process theory, special functions, combinatorial analysis, numerical methods, game theory, and much more.
