Aerospace Project Management Handbook

The Aerospace Project Management Handbook focuses on space systems exploring intricacies rarely seen in land-based projects. These range from additional compliance requirements from Earned Value Management requirements and regulations (ESA NASA FAA) to criticality and risk factors for systems where repair is impossible. Aerospace project management has become a pathway for success in harsh space environments as the Handbook demonstrates. With chapters written by experts this comprehensive book offers a step-by-step approach emphasizing the applied techniques and tools and is a prime resource for program managers technical leads systems engineers and principle payload leads.

Corrosion Science Theoretical and Practical Applications

Corrosion studies have attracted considerable interest in the areas of materials chemistry and industrial chemistry as it affects the direct and indirect costs of industry leading to huge economic setbacks due to the need for repair maintenance and even shutdowns due corrosion damage. This new volume is a comprehensive resource that presents new and up-to-date theoretical and experimental corrosion inhibition studies. Corrosion Science: Theoretical and Practical Applications provides an introduction and overview of corrosion science and presents theoretical and experimental studies to mitigate damage from corrosion. Taking an interdisciplinary perspective this volume is a rich resource of studies and experiments toward solutions that are cost-effective environmentally friendly and low in maintenance. The chapters cover an array of topics on the study of corrosion science exploring different types of materials and various methods of corrosion inhibition. Topics include the use of oil and plant extracts the application of density functional theory to study anticorrosiove effects the use of infrared spectroscopy the introduction of new hybrid sol-gel coatings an atomistic simulation method a dynamic electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (DEIS) technique and much more. This book offers important information on the mechanisms of corrosion science in theory and practice as well as a wealth of corrosion prevention and protection methods. | Corrosion Science Theoretical and Practical Applications

Current Perspectives and New Directions in Mechanics Modelling and Design of Structural Systems Proceedings of The Eighth International Con

Current Perspectives and New Directions in Mechanics Modelling and Design of Structural Systems comprises 330 papers that were presented at the Eighth International Conference on Structural Engineering Mechanics and Computation (SEMC 2022 Cape Town South Africa 5-7 September 2022). The topics featured may be clustered into six broad categories that span the themes of mechanics modelling and engineering design: (i) mechanics of materials (elasticity plasticity porous media fracture fatigue damage delamination viscosity creep shrinkage etc); (ii) mechanics of structures (dynamics vibration seismic response soil-structure interaction fluid-structure interaction response to blast and impact response to fire structural stability buckling collapse behaviour); (iii) numerical modelling and experimental testing (numerical methods simulation techniques multi-scale modelling computational modelling laboratory testing field testing experimental measurements); (iv) design in traditional engineering materials (steel concrete steel-concrete composite aluminium masonry timber); (v) innovative concepts sustainable engineering and special structures (nanostructures adaptive structures smart structures composite structures glass structures bio-inspired structures shells membranes space structures lightweight structures etc); (vi) the engineering process and life-cycle considerations (conceptualisation planning analysis design optimization construction assembly manufacture maintenance monitoring assessment repair strengthening retrofitting decommissioning). Two versions of the papers are available: full papers of length 6 pages are included in an e-book while short papers of length 2 pages intended to be concise but self-contained summaries of the full papers are in this printed book. This work will be of interest to civil structural mechanical marine and aerospace engineers as well as planners and architects. | Current Perspectives and New Directions in Mechanics Modelling and Design of Structural Systems Proceedings of The Eighth International Con
