Books about O

Concentrates on three topics: mixed analog-digital circuit design, sensor interface circuits, and communication circuits. Divided into three parts, this book comprises six papers on each topic of a tutorial nature aimed at improving the design of analog circuits.

Presents material on epigenetics; stem cells; RNAi; comparative genomics; the latest cancer therapies; apoptosis; and cell cycle control and the mechanics of M phase. This book tells the story of cell biology, and creates a framework through which readers may approach this subject that is so central to all of biology.

The third edition of this text on continuous Martingales and Brownian motion has new exercises, streamlined proofs, errors removed and the bibliography has been enlarged to keep the book up-to-date for the late 1990s.

A reference on semiconductor characterization tools, this volume offers explanations of the advanced and traditional techniques for evaluating different criterion: crystal defects, impurity concentration, lifetime, film thickness, resistivity, and such critical electrical properties as mobility, Hall effect, and conductivity type.

Developing the subject of probability theory and stochastic processes as a deductive discipline, this work illustrates the theory with basic applications of engineering. It bridges the gap between concepts and applications by the use of a large number of examples. It is aimed at students in electrical engineering, math, and physics departments.

This revision covers the physics and classical mathematics necessary to understand electromagnetic fields in materials and at surfaces and interfaces.

Provides the essential mathematical tools and techniques used to solve problems in physics. This work includes differential forms and the elegant forms of Maxwell's equations, and a chapter on probability and statistics. It also illustrates and proves mathematical relations.

In his work of popular science, Sir Roger Penrose takes us on a fascinating roller-coaster ride through the basic principles of physics, cosmology, mathematics, and philosophy to show that human thinking can never be emulated by a machine.

Analog Electronics: An integrated PSpice Approach' concentrates on the introductory material associated with analogue electronics. It starts with a description of the basic active of diodes, transistors - both bipolar and FET - and integrated circuits. There are chapters on frequency response, oscillators, filters, and many worked examples.

Includes a selection of useful computer solutions to many transformer circuit problems. Every chapter reflects the technology advances. The section on inverter transformers is expanded to address the subject of power supplies.

Entering service in the early 1960s, the M109 Self-Propelled Howitzer has been in production for 34 years and forms the backbone of US Army and Reserve artillery units. This work details the versatile M109, which has served around the globe, seeing service in Southeast Asia, and Desert Shield.

Drawn from the pages of popular Advanced Television column in TV Technology magazine, this work features television writings. It includes the interests of broadcasting, cable, wireless cable, telcos, DBS, and packaged media. It also introduces subjects such as digital video compression, transmission of digital signals, and audio compression.

Presents a view of the field of turbo error control coding, summarizing results in the areas of encoder structure and performance analysis. This book also includes a general theory for the analysis and design of interleavers, and a unified framework for the analysis and design of decoding algorithms.

Intended as a reference work for research engineers and advanced graduate students, this book discusses and reviews the underlying mechanics of creating a fracture from vertical or deviated wellbores and the propagation of a hydraulic fracture in the reservoir.
