Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Corrosion does not fail an asset on the day the appears. It works quietly at the boundary between a material and its environment, and by the time the consequence is visible - a weeping flange, a cracked weld, an unplanned shutdown - the decisions that allowed it were taken years earlier, in a materials specification, a coating schedule, or an inspection interval nobody questioned.That is the difficulty facing most who deal with corrosion. The knowledge exists, but it arrives in fragments: an electrochemistry chapter here, a product brochure there, a code clause that says what to do without explaining why. Practitioners are still expected to select alloys for aggressive service, judge whether a cathodic protection system is protecting, interpret an inspection report and defend a corrosion budget - with no single source connecting the science to the decision in front of them.This comprehensive twenty-chapter reference was written to close that gap. It builds a complete working command of corrosion, from the electrochemical and thermodynamic reasons metals corrode at all, through every major form of attack and the mechanism behind it, to the modern, data-driven practice of keeping aging assets safe and in service. Read it straight through as a full education, or open it at a single chapter when a specific answer is needed.Inside this book you willUnderstand corrosion cells, polarization behavior, potential-pH maps and passivity well enough to read laboratory data and monitoring output with judgment rather than trust.Diagnose uniform, galvanic, pitting, crevice, intergranular, dealloying, erosion and cracking damage from its appearance, environment and metallurgy.Apply the prevention disciplines with confidence: materials selection, surface preparation and coatings, cathodic and anodic protection, inhibitor programs, and corrosion-resistant design.Work through the environments where corrosion costs most: oil, gas and petrochemical service; water systems, power generation and infrastructure; atmospheric, marine and buried exposure; and high-temperature oxidation and hot corrosion.Plan and defend inspection using risk-based principles, corrosion-rate data, remaining-life estimation, non-destructive techniques and structured failure analysis.Compare options on lifecycle cost rather than purchase price, and place standards, codes and professional certification in their proper context.Key topics: electrochemical thermodynamics and kinetics; corrosion-rate measurement; the metallurgy of carbon steels, stainless steels, nickel, copper, aluminum and titanium alloys; stress corrosion cracking and hydrogen damage; erosion-corrosion and cavitation; coatings, linings and surface treatments; cathodic protection design; corrosion inhibitors; risk-based inspection; and asset integrity management.The apparatus is built for long-term use: figures that make abstract ideas concrete, case studies from real operating experience, key-concept and industry-alert boxes, more than 750 multiple-choice review questions with answers and full rationales, and appendices giving a standards quick reference, a galvanic series in seawater, conversion factors and corrosion formulas, a glossary and an abbreviation list.Who it is for: materials and corrosion engineers, mechanical, civil and chemical engineers whose designs must survive decades in aggressive service, asset-integrity and reliability professionals, inspectors and coating specialists, graduate and advanced undergraduate students, and candidates preparing for professional certification examinations.Add this working reference to your shelf and begin making corrosion decisions from understanding rather than guesswork.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. A modern plant can have high-specification instruments, a capable control system, and a data historian holding thousands of tags-and still operate far below what its equipment can actually deliver. The problem is rarely one failed device. More often, performance is lost across the chain: sensor location, installation effects, calibration, signal conditioning, controller tuning, final-control-element mechanics, data quality, and operating decisions. The result is extra operating margin, slower transitions, and longer product holds than the process requires.Process Instrumentation & Control treats the production system as one continuous engineering chain, from process physics to measurement, information, decision, action, and verification. Across twenty-two chapters and more than five hundred illustrated pages, it shows how information is created, transformed, and sometimes degraded at every interface-and how to diagnose the system as a whole instead of treating each discipline in isolation.Inside this handbook, you will learn how to: Trace a weak control loop to its real cause by separating sensor, installation, signal-conditioning, tuning, and final-element problems.Judge whether a measurement deserves trust using accuracy, precision, uncertainty, calibration, and traceability as practical engineering tools.Work confidently with pressure and differential pressure, flow, level and interface, temperature, and analytical measurement.Specify and diagnose valves, actuators, variable-speed drives, instrument wiring, power, grounding, and hazardous-area interfaces.Perform calibration, commissioning, and loop checking as evidence-producing disciplines while maintaining recoverable plant documentation.Tune PID loops with process dynamics in mind and apply cascade, feedforward, ratio, multivariable, constraint, inferential, and model-predictive control where appropriate.Integrate functional safety, alarm management, and industrial cybersecurity across the plant lifecycle.Apply soft sensors, digital twins, machine learning, predictive maintenance, and edge computing only when the underlying measurements and data context can support them.Key topics include measurement science and uncertainty; sensors, transducers, and installation effects; pressure, flow, level, temperature, and analytical measurement; valves, actuators, and drives; signals, wiring, grounding, and hazardous-area practices; P&IDs, tags, loop diagrams, datasheets, and instrument indexes; calibration, commissioning, and asset management; process dynamics and advanced control; PLC, DCS, and supervisory architectures; industrial communications and interoperability; functional safety; alarm management; cybersecurity; digital twins; soft sensors; analytics; machine learning; predictive maintenance; brownfield modernisation; troubleshooting; and staged smart-plant implementation.Each chapter begins with a realistic operating problem-a startup that will not settle, a night-shift alarm on a recovery vessel, or a compressor trip that floods the operator with consequential alarms-then reconstructs the engineering that explains it.Written for instrumentation and control engineers, process, chemical, and mechanical engineers, maintenance and reliability technicians, automation and control-system specialists, operations and production staff, plant data teams, and engineering managers, this handbook provides a complete view of the modern plant, one interface at a time.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Every structural steel project begins with the same high-stakes question: does this design satisfy the code? For engineers working under the current United States steel specifications, that question now means demonstrating compliance with AISC 360-22 - a specification whose provisions span hundreds of limit-state checks, interaction equations, and classification criteria across member design, connections, composite systems, and seismic detailing.The challenge facing today's is real. Existing references often lag behind the current code cycle, focus on academic theory without step-by-step calculation procedures, or cover individual topics without connecting them to whole-building behavior. Whether you are sizing a wide-flange beam for lateral-torsional buckling, checking a gusset plate for Whitmore-section yielding, or verifying a strong-column/weak-beam ratio at a seismic joint, the path from specification provision to verified result must be clear, repeatable, and traceable.Structural Steel Design: AISC 360-22 Compliant Methods, Connections and Seismic Practice was written to bridge that gap. At 545 pages and 23 chapters, this comprehensive reference organizes the complete scope of steel building design into 101 clearly defined, code-compliant methods - each paired with fully worked numerical examples that show every step, every utilization ratio, and every pass/fail verdict.Here is what you will gain from this book: The ability to classify steel sections, evaluate width-thickness ratios, and apply the correct limit-state equations for tension, compression, flexure, shear, and combined loading - with every design procedure tied to the 2022 specification provisions.Practical competence in connection design spanning high-strength bolted connections (bearing and slip-critical, bolt groups, prying action), welded connections (fillet, groove, and weld group analysis), and all common connection types from single-plate shear tabs through extended end-plate moment connections, HSS branch connections, column bases, and splices.Hands-on seismic design capability for moment frames (OMF, IMF, SMF), braced frames (OCBF, SCBF, BRBF), and eccentrically braced frames - including expected-strength calculations, capacity-design force paths, link classification, protected-zone requirements, and prequalified connection qualification per AISC 358-22.Composite design proficiency covering composite beams with full and partial shear connection, composite columns, steel headed stud anchors, and composite deck-slab systems.Professional-practice knowledge that most design references omit entirely - connection design responsibility, shop and erection drawing review, tolerances and camber, temporary bracing and erection stability, special inspection planning, quality control and assurance, peer review, and integrated building case studies.Over 30 worked examples throughout the book use real section sizes, actual material properties, and calculated utilization ratios, giving you a verified template for your own projects and a dependent study resource for professional licensing examinations.This book is written for practicing structural engineers designing steel buildings under current US codes, engineers transitioning to the 2022 specification cycle, senior and graduate-level engineering students, PE and SE exam candidates, and construction professionals involved in fabrication, erection, or inspection.Open this book, follow the methods, check the numbers, and design steel structures with the clarity and confidence that code-compliant practice demands.
