Engineering Physics

The First Edition Of This Book Was Brought Out By Wiley Eastern Ltd. In 1994. The Sixth Edition Now At Your Hand Differs From The First Edition In Many Respects. Many-Sided Changes Both Qualitatively And Quantitatively Are The Quotable Features Of This Edition.The Purpose Of This Edition Is Not Only To Initiate The Beginners Into This Fascinating Subject, But Also To Prepare Them In This Area For The Postgraduate Examinations Conducted By Universities Spread All Over The Country. Reading This Text Book In Depth Rather Than A Casual, Go-Through May Improve The Workaholic Culture Of The Students Desiring Higher Education At Iits And Highly Graded Universities Through Gate. The Same Yardstick Is Adoptable By The Postgraduate Students In Physics And Engineering Streams Aiming To Score High Grades In The Written Tests Conducted By Upsc For Class I Posts In Various Central Government Departments And Boards.

This book shares important findings on the application of robotics in industry using advanced mechanisms, including software and hardware. It presents a collection of recent trends and research on various advanced computing paradigms such as soft computing, robotics, smart automation, power control, and uncertainty analysis. The book constitutes the proceedings of the 1st International Conference on Application of Robotics in Industry using Advanced Mechanisms (ARIAM2019), which offered a platform for sharing original research findings, presenting innovative ideas and applications, and comparing notes on various aspects of robotics. The contributions highlight the latest research and industrial applications of robotics, and discuss approaches to improving the smooth functioning of industries. Moreover, they focus on designing solutions for complex engineering problems and designing system components or processes to meet specific needs, with due considerations for public health and safety, including cultural, societal, and environmental considerations. Taken together, they offer a valuable resource for researchers, scientists, engineers, professionals and students alike.

This book, divided in two volumes, originates from Techno-Societal 2020: the 3rd International Conference on Advanced Technologies for Societal Applications, Maharashtra, India, that brings together faculty members of various engineering colleges to solve Indian regional relevant problems under the guidance of eminent researchers from various reputed organizations. The focus of this volume is on technologies that help develop and improve society, in particular on issues such as advanced and sustainable technologies for manufacturing processes, environment, livelihood, rural employment, agriculture, energy, transport, sanitation, water, education. This conference aims to help innovators to share their best practices or products developed to solve specific local problems which in turn may help the other researchers to take inspiration to solve problems in their region. On the other hand, technologies proposed by expert researchers may find applications in different regions. This offers a multidisciplinary platform for researchers from a broad range of disciplines of Science, Engineering and Technology for reporting innovations at different levels.

This book comprises select proceedings of the International Conference on Emerging Trends in Mechanical Engineering (ICETME 2018). The book covers various topics of mechanical engineering like computational fluid dynamics, heat transfer, machine dynamics, tribology, and composite materials. In addition, relevant studies in the allied fields of manufacturing, industrial and production engineering are also covered. The applications of latest tools and techniques in the context of mechanical engineering problems are discussed in this book. The contents of this book will be useful for students, researchers as well as industry professionals.

Writing a comprehensive book on Materials Science for the benefit of undergraduate courses in Science and Engineering was a day dream of the first author, Dr. S.O. Pillai for a long period. However, the dream became true after a lapse of couple of years. Lucid and logical exposition of the subject matter is the special feature of this book.

The Purpose Of This Book Is To Motivate The Students To Organize Their Thoughts And Prepare Them For Problem Solving In The Vital Areas Of Modern Physics And Physics Of Condensed Materials. Each Chapter Begins With A Quick Review Of The Basic Concepts Of The Topics And Also, A Brief Discussion Of The Equation And Formulae That Are To Be Used For Solving The Problems. Examples And Illustrations Are Provided Then And There To Expedite The Learning Process And The Working Knowledge. About Six Hundred Problems Have Been Treated In Total; Two Hundred Problems Have Been Worked Out Providing All Minute Details. Answers For The Other Four Hundred Problems Have Been Provided At The End Of The Book. This Book Will Cater The Needs Of Undergraduate And Postgraduate Students Of Physics, Chemistry, Materials Science And All Branches Of Engineering Except Civil Engineering. Candidates Appearing For The Gate And Other Competitive Examinations Would Find This Book Useful.

This textbook is a comprehensive up-to-date volume providing the concepts and applications of contemporary physics for the use of students pursuing undergraduate engineering degree courses in institutions affiliated to Indian Universities Located in different zones. A modern description of interaction between atoms (and molecules) is given along with discussions of topics such as lasers, nanotechnology, magnetic properties of materials, superconductivity and applications. Many riders at the end of each chapter are the salient features of this textbook. This may in turn serve the purpose of GATE aspirants and others aspiring for faculty positions in Universities, Colleges and research institutions through written examinations.

This book focuses on the use of nanotechnology in several fields of engineering. Among others, the reader will find valuable information as to how nanotechnology can aid in extending the life of component materials exposed to corrosive atmospheres, in thermal fluid energy conversion processes, anti-reflection coatings on photovoltaic cells to yield enhanced output from solar cells, in connection with friction and wear reduction in automobiles, and buoyancy suppression in free convective heat transfer. Moreover, this unique resource presents the latest research on nanoscale transport phenomena and concludes with a look at likely future trends.

This book examines carbon-based nanocomposite materials and their application in various environmental fields, such as wastewater treatment, and air and soil remediation. Featuring illustrations, and tables summarizing the latest research, it gathers up-to-date information on the application of carbon nanocomposites in the removal of environmental pollutants from different sources. Given its scope, the book is a valuable textbook for research students, and a useful handbook and reference resource for researchers, academics and industrial scientists working in the field of environmental pollutants and their safe removal.
