A very comprehensive text which revises all of the PPL performance syllabus and goes on to add those areas that are required at the CPL level. All exercises and tests are accompanied by fully explained, and where calculations are involved, fully worked answers.

The new European Joint Aviation Requirements (JARs) lay down rules governing the minimum levels of performance which must be attained by every type of public transport aeroplane. These rules cover matters such as weight, altitude and temperature, take-off and landing distance, cruise flight level and speed, and descent angle and rate. The subject of aircraft performance forms an important part of all JAR Flight Crew Licensing examinations for commercial and airline transport pilot licences, and this book provides a clear but authoritative text on a difficult topic. It will also be of interest to commercial pilots needing to upgrade their annual ground test to JAR standards, and to flight planners, operations controllers and airport operators.

Country Public Limited (CPL) was a public sector enterprise in India. It manufactured electric equipments and had a strong customer-base in India and overseas. It had witnessed a major setback in 2012 in the form of de-growth of 25% in comparison to the previous year. Rising attrition of young talented employees had added to the dismay. Perturbed by the current state of affairs at CPL, Raghav Dutta, the General Manager for its Delhi division asked for the assistance of his consultant friend Gayatri Sharma. Gayatri attempted to get to the root of the problem. Her analysis based on thorough discussions with employees and managers threw up many horrifying facts about the performance management system at CPL.

This publication contains training guidance for flight crew wishing to obtain a pilots licence in the UK and training providers of both UK National and JAA requirements in the field of flight crew licensing, with the associated rules and regulations. It is divided into two main sections dealing with: licensing, administration and standardisation procedures employed by the Safety Regulation Group, including references to JAR-FCL (European Joint Aviation Requirements for Flight Crew Licensing) documentation; and operating requirements and safety practice standards in the preparation for flight, with data from established information sources such as aeronautical information circulars and CAA safety sense leaflets.

An accessible introduction written by a stellar contributor line up of world-renowned lecturers and practitioners in the field (including Linda Holbeche, Stephen Taylor and Jim Stewart).

This second edition of Nanofabrication is one of the most comprehensive introductions on nanofabrication technologies and processes. A practical guide and reference, this book introduces readers to all of the developed technologies that are capable of making structures below 100nm. The principle of each technology is introduced and illustrated with minimum mathematics involved. Also analyzed are the capabilities of each technology in making sub-100nm structures, and the limits of preventing a technology from going further down the dimensional scale. This book provides readers with a toolkit that will help with any of their nanofabrication challenges.

Comprehensive resource illustrating the latest stage and development of chiral luminescence in science and technology, from fundamentals to applications Chiral Luminescence imparts a comprehensive understanding for chiral materials bearing circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) functions, including molecules, oligomers, polymers, chiral metal organic complexes, and chiral biochemical materials, with guidance on how to promote and control this kind of luminescence towards the development of advanced photonic materials and devices such as chiroptical and electronic devices, next-generation displays, and others. The book covers detailed information on the molecular design, synthesis, and polymerization methods of chiral luminescent materials, the evaluation of chiroptical properties represented by CPL, novel spectroscopic instruments and techniques, the fabrication of chiral luminescent devices such CPL-OLED, a theoretical evaluation, and potential applications. With insight from leading academics and industrial researchers in the field, Chiral Luminescence includes information on: Optical resolution and chiroptical properties of partially overlapping carbazolophanes and developments in CPL research using cyclodextrins Synthesis and chiroptical properties of helical, conjugated polymers and twisted molecules, and chiroptical and magnetooptical properties of porphyrin compounds Principles of CPL measurement systems and advances in measurement methods, and intense and sign-invertible CPL Development of organic light-emitting diodes using aggregation-induced enhanced CPL perylene diimides Binding constants as fundamental physical properties for quantitative treatments of sensing processes in supramolecular systems Providing far-reaching coverage of chiral luminescence and its many applications, Chiral Luminescence is a must-read resource for a variety of chemists and engineers who wish to understand the state-of-the-art development in this optical science.
