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.

    This volume features seventeen early papers that developed quantum theory into its modern form. These papers appeared from 1917 to 1926 and were written by the leading physicists of the early twentieth century.The collection begins with Einstein's "On the Quantum Theory of Radiation," an illuminating derivation of Planck's Law. Other important early papers by Ehrenfest, Bohr, Born, Van Vleck, Kuhn, and others prepared the way for the "turning point" in quantum mechanics. This crucial step is taken in Heisenberg's paper "Quantum-Theoretical Re-Interpretation of Kinematic and Mechanical Relations." Additional papers by Born, Dirac, Pauli, and Jordan develop the theory in full. Eleven of these seventeen papers are reproduced unabridged; all are in English.A 59-page historical introduction by the editor, Professor B. L. van der Waerden, provides connective commentary. Quoting from relevant correspondence, noting the thinking behind each discovery, and evaluating the extent of each individual's contribution, it re-creates the era's intellectual foment and excitement.

    The plots of filter behaviour for different designs, such as ripple and group delay, make this book invaluable. The discussion of how to synthesize a bandpass, bandpass, or bandstop filter from a lowpass prototype is also very useful.

    Originally composed between 1950 and 1962, it derives its title from the lengthy critical commentary which Bion attached to these case histories in the year of publication, 1967, and represents the evolutionary change of position marked in his three previous books and brought to further refinement in the present work.

    Both a text for students and a reference for professionals, the book can be used for advanced undergraduate or graduate courses. Numerous detailed figures, plus exercises. 1967 edition. Preface. Appendix. Index.
