Synopsis A Common Language for Electrical Engineering by : Eric Dollard

Eric Dollard is a legendary electrical engineer trained by RCA, Bell Labs and the US Navy. He is the only man alive to have successfully replicated Nikola Tesla's wireless electricity technology and is considered to be the modern living Tesla. Because of his contribution to electrical science and his advancements in a Tesla-Alexanderson type of Advanced Seismic Warning System, the Federal Government's documents in relation to this project refer to him as Dr. Eric Dollard, which confers to him an honorary PhD. His fans lovingly refer to him as Professor Dollard. The Lone Pine Writings (Part 1) and its content was developed out of the general frustration of the author when trying to teach others about his work in electrical engineering. This collection of papers started appearing in discussion threads on Energetic Forum around 2011. At the time, Eric Dollard was living in his famous 1980 Toyota Corolla, in the harsh wastelands of Lone Pine, California. Originally, Eric wrote the material out on paper and mailed it to a colleague who transcribed the material and posted it in the forums under the pseudonym "T-REX". Each paper or letter was called a "transmission" in honor of the language of a radio operator and contained information on specific electrical engineering terms and how they are to be used. The original format of the material is retained in this edition of the book. The phenomena we call "electricity" is a dynamic, but artificial presentation of the Natural World, and because of this, its behavior follows specific rules. Understanding these specific behaviors is the key to engineering this phenomena, but developing a common language with which to describe these behaviors is the key to teaching others these engineering skills. The purpose of this book is to provide clarity for the electrical engineering community regarding the use of common terms for electrical units. The last attempt to standardize this language was made by Oliver Heaviside over 100 years ago and his effort was met by censure from the Royal Society of London. It is hoped that the release of this book will be met with a more enlightened response. Peter A. Lindemann, D.Sc. Editor, A & P Electronic Media A portion of the proceeds will go to EPD Laboratories, Inc., a 501(c)3 tax-deductible non-profit corporation that supports Eric Dollard in advancing the electrical sciences.

Synopsis Programming for Electrical Engineers by : James C. Squire

Programming for Electrical Engineers: MATLAB and Spice introduces beginning engineering students to programming in Matlab and Spice through engaged, problem-based learning and dedicated electrical and computer engineering content. The book draws its problems and examples specifically from electrical and computer engineering, covering such topics as circuit analysis, signal processing, and filter design. It teaches relevant computational techniques in the context of solving common problems in electrical and computer engineering, including mesh and nodal analysis, Fourier transforms, and phasor analysis. Programming for Electrical Engineers: MATLAB and Spice is unique among MATLAB textbooks for its dual focus on introductory-level learning and discipline-specific content in electrical and computer engineering. No other textbook on the market currently targets this audience with the same attention to discipline-specific content and engaged learning practices. Although it is primarily an introduction to programming in MATLAB, the book also has a chapter on circuit simulation using Spice, and it includes materials required by ABET Accreditation reviews, such as information on ethics, professional development, and lifelong learning. - Discipline-specific: Introduces Electrical and Computer Engineering-specific topics, such as phasor analysis and complex exponentials, that are not covered in generic engineering Matlab texts - Accessible: Pedagogically appropriate for freshmen and sophomores with little or no prior programming experience - Scaffolded content: Addresses both script and functions but emphasizes the use of functions since scripts with non-scoped variables are less-commonly encountered after introductory courses - Problem-centric: Introduces MATLAB commands as needed to solve progressively more complex EE/ECE-specific problems, and includes over 100 embedded, in-chapter questions to check comprehension in stages and support active learning exercises in the classroom - Enrichment callouts: "Pro Tip" callouts cover common ABET topics, such as ethics and professional development, and "Digging Deeper" callouts provide optional, more detailed material for interested students

Synopsis Versor Algebra by : Eric P Dollard

Charles Proteus Steinmetz's original math model is a natural outgrowth of Nikola Tesla's polyphase power systems. Tesla was the discoverer, but Steinmetz was the builder who first applied Versor Algebra to the analysis of alternating current power systems.In my presentation and book Four Quadrant Representation of Electricity, my extension of Steinmetz's work is presented in the most simple way possible using very simple analogies, pictures and diagrams. It was a very difficult task as the goal was to facilitate an understanding for the layman.That presentation was given at the 2013 Energy Science & Technology Conference and shortly thereafter, the book version was released, which went into more detail that was not covered in the presentation.Tesla's polyphase power system was originally four poles or four phases. Steinmetz is the one who adapted it into a three pole or three phase system, which is the prominent system of today. The complication is that three phase systems cannot be explained by conventional mathematics. With three phase systems, there is no plus or minus and that is the reason why the conventional math doesn't work anymore.That left a big gap in polyphase power systems until Dr. Fortescue came up with the system of Symmetrical Coordinates. This laid the groundwork for polyphase mathematics for any number of phases. And ultimately, it can be extended into the Pythagorean understanding of numbers.The "Fortescue Method" was never fully developed because of its complexity. The proper name for this is "Sequence Algebra" and the rudiments were presented in my presentation and book Four Quadrant Representation of Electricity.Even though the system has become adopted for general engineering usage, Versor Algebra as Applied to Polyphase Power Systems and/or Versor Algebra Vol. II, Special Theories of Sequence Operators as Applied to Power Engineering is the first theoretical basis that has ever been presented on the subject.Versor Algebra as Applied to Polyphase Power Systems and/or Versor Algebra Vol. II, Special Theories of Sequence Operators as Applied to Power Engineering is the next logical step after Four Quandrant Representation of Electricity as it takes the reader into the mathematical journey of the mathematical model and theory that is necessary to realize the unique electrical waves that exist in polypahse power systems. These waves are actually beyond the original understanding of Tesla and Steinmetz with regard to polyphase power systems.It is important to understand that this is all possible with simple 9th grade algebra. I take the reader through a step-by-step process from very basic algebra and log-rhythms into the more complex subject. The process involves very simple but numerous steps to guide the reader into the understanding of polyphase mathematics.Through my own journey in writing this Versor Algebra book, I have been able to unify the polyphonic music of Bach and his contemporaries as this music follows the logic of sequence algebra perfectly.In fact, the book was written when listening to this music, which aided the process greatly.

Synopsis Object-Oriented Analysis and Design Through Unified Modeling Language by : Gandharba Swain

This book adheres to the B.Tech. and MCA syllabus of JNT University, Hyderabad and many other Indian universities. The first two chapters represent the fundamentals of object technology, OOP and OOAD and how people are inclined towards object-oriented analysis and design starting from traditional approach and the different approaches suggested by the three pioneers-Booch, Rum Baugh and Jacobson. Chapters 3 to 18 represent the UML language, the building blocks of UML i.e., things, relationships and diagrams and the use of each diagram with an example. Chapters 19 and 20 discuss a case study "Library Management System". In this study one can get a very clear idea what object oriented analysis and design is and how UML is to be used for that purpose. Appendix-A discusses the different syntactic notations of UML and Appendix-B discusses how the three approaches of Booch, Rum Baugh and Jacobson are unified and the Unified Process. --
