Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - A spacecraft is built once, launched once, and then trusted to work for years in a place no technician can ever reach; which is why every gram, every watt, and every decision has to be right before it leaves the ground.Many engineers and students master individual subjects (orbits, control, electronics, heat transfer) only to find that real spacecraft work lives in the connections between them. Theory texts treat topics in isolation, and parts catalogs say little about how a choice in one subsystem drives mass, power, and risk across the whole vehicle. What is missing is the systems view: how to size a subsystem, budget the resources it consumes, trade it against alternatives, and prove it will survive launch and space.This handbook was written to close that gap. It treats the spacecraft as a single integrated system and follows a mission in its natural order; from the environment and orbit that drive the design, through every major subsystem, to assembly, test, and operations. Each chapter builds from fundamentals to practical use, showing the working habits of the discipline: budgets that must close, margins that protect a design, and trade studies that turn opinion into numbers.Inside this handbook you will: - Understand how one subsystem decision ripples through mass, power, thermal, and reliability across the vehicle- Build and read the technical budgets; mass, power, link, and pointing; that decide whether a design is possible- Size propulsion, attitude control, power, thermal, communications, and data handling from real mission needs- Trace requirements from mission objectives down to hardware, and verify them with evidence- Plan verification and testing, and read a design across the operating modes where conflicts appear- Keep a consistent framework, notation, and reference data close at hand during real projectsIt is written for advanced engineering students entering the field and for practicing engineers, specialists, and technical managers who need a dependable working reference; anyone who must not only understand a subsystem but size it, integrate it, and defend it in a review.GRAB A COPY of this handbook and begin building the systems-level understanding needed to design, verify, and operate a modern spacecraft with greater clarity and confidence.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Earthquakes do not affect every site in the same way. Their consequences depend on the ground beneath a structure, the movement that reaches the site, groundwater conditions, and the way soil, foundations, slopes, and infrastructure respond. Understanding these connections is the foundation of sound geotechnical earthquake engineering.This comprehensive handbook guides readers from seismic hazard and ground motion to practical design and field decisions. It connects fundamental theory with site investigation, analysis, mitigation, monitoring, and resilient infrastructure practice.Readers Will Learn How To: - Interpret seismic hazard, earthquake ground motion, and wave propagation.- Evaluate dynamic soil and rock properties.- Plan site investigations and interpret field and laboratory evidence.- Analyse site response, liquefaction, cyclic mobility, and ground failure.- Assess slopes, retaining systems, foundations, piles, and soil-structure interaction.- Select ground-improvement methods and evaluate seismic mitigation strategies.- Model embankments, earth structures, and infrastructure under earthquake loading.- Apply numerical modelling, performance-based assessment, risk, resilience, and monitoring.Clear explanations, core equations, worked examples, analytical tools, and decision frameworks demonstrate how to select appropriate methods and understand their limitations.The book addresses the uncertainties that often control real-world performance, including spatial variability, groundwater conditions, pore-pressure generation, strength degradation, incomplete data, construction conditions, and the difference between calculated predictions and observed field behaviour.It is especially useful for readers who need to move beyond formula selection and make defensible engineering decisions when evidence is incomplete, ground conditions vary across a site, and safety, constructability, performance, and recovery must be considered together throughout the engineering process.Designed for students, researchers, consultants, geotechnical engineers, earthquake engineers, and advanced practitioners, this handbook provides a practical path from first principles to responsible seismic design.Its Canadian framing, SI units, and emphasis on resilient infrastructure make it a useful companion for graduate study, professional development, and real-world engineering projects.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Given a load, a duty cycle, and a real set of constraints, which mechanical component actually belongs in this design - and how is it sized Most references answer only half of that question. A fastener handbook or a bearing catalog gives you sizing data for one component family and stops there. A machine-design textbook derives the underlying physics in careful detail but often leaves the actual selection decision to you.This handbook is organized the other way around. Twenty chapters, each covering one mechanical component family end to end, so the same design logic and level of practical detail carries across every one - and any single chapter can be read standalone whenever that component family is the one you need today.Inside, you'll- Classify a load as static, cyclic, or impact, and choose the correct failure theory and factor of safety to match it- Run fatigue and life-prediction calculations using the Marin equation and Goodman/Gerber/Soderberg mean-stress corrections, and apply tolerancing, fits, and GD&T with real stack-up analysis- Size threaded fasteners for preload and fatigue, welded and adhesive joints, and a rotating shaft under combined bending and torsion checked against critical speed- Select and size gears (Lewis equation), belt and chain drives, clutches and brakes, rolling-element bearings (L10 life), and plain bearings (PV limit)- Design springs (Wahl-factor-corrected stress), seals and O-rings, linear guides and ball/lead screws, pressure vessels and piping, and structural weldment frames - closing with vibration isolation and reliability calculationsEvery worked example runs in US customary units first, with SI equivalents alongside. Every chapter includes a 'Mistake Autopsy' built around one specific, plausible way that component actually fails in practice, a 'Field Capstone' that pulls several of the chapter's ideas together the way a real assignment would, and practice problems with worked answers you can check your own calculation against. Nine appendices - fastener tables, material properties, bearing life data, standard fits, spring charts, unit conversions, a safety-factor quick-reference, a master formula sheet, and a glossary - keep you from hunting back through a chapter mid-calculation.This is a reference built for the moment an engineer needs to move from 'which component' to 'sized, specified, and documented,' and for a student who wants worked, verified problems to check their own work against.…
