Sinopse

Wave Powered Boats explores the exciting possibilities of harnessing wave energy for marine propulsion, presenting a comprehensive overview of the science and technology driving this innovation. Imagine vessels traversing the ocean powered solely by the waves, leaving no carbon footprint. The book delves into how wave energy conversion can revolutionize maritime transport and ocean exploration.

 
One intriguing aspect is how wave-powered boats could facilitate autonomous oceanographic research, offering long-range data collection without relying on traditional, polluting methods.

 
The book begins by laying the groundwork with fundamental principles of wave energy and its potential applications. It then progresses into a detailed examination of various wave energy conversion technologies, considering both existing prototypes and theoretical designs.

 
A key focus is on the engineering challenges involved in creating robust and efficient vessels, addressing hull design, stability, and control systems. This approach sets it apart by presenting concrete examples and real-world challenges, bridging the gap between theoretical concepts and practical application in sustainable maritime transport.

    This book explains the properties for each type of spring, plus essential materials and methods. Few mechanical devices are entirely devoid of springs of one sort or another, but satisfactory operation rests on details such as spring strength and degree of movement. Yet information on calculating and making springs is not easily available. Designing springs can be difficult due to the number of variables and the complexity of the formula. The book also introduces the designer to charts and nomograms, which greatly simplify the process. Topics include tension and compression spring principles, compression and spring design, examples for winding coil springs, how to design, make, and coil a leaf spring, torsion spring, and I.C. engine valve springs.

    Bacteria form a fundamental branch of life. They are the oldest forms of life and the most prolific of all living organisms, inhabiting every part of the Earth's surface, its ocean depths, and even such inhospitable places as boiling hot springs. In this Very Short Introduction, bacteriologist Sebastian Amyes explores the nature of bacteria, their origin and evolution, bacteria in the environment, and bacteria and disease. Amyes discusses some of the major infections caused by bacteria-bacteria causes pneumonia, diphtheria, cholera, and many other diseases-and shows how these pathogens avoid the defenses of the human body. But the book looks at all aspects of bacteria, not just the negative side, stressing the key benefits of bacteria, which have been harnessed to preserve food, dispose of waste and to provide compost for horticulture. Indeed, life for man and for many animals would be impossible without bacteria. Amyes also offers a glance into the future, describing how bacteria might be manipulated to perform tasks that they previous were unable to perform and discussing the recent construction of a completely synthetic bacterial cell.

  • Introduction to Power System Protection - cover

    Introduction to Power System...

    Power system protection systems have three basic components: Instrument transformers, Relays, Circuit breakers
    
    The function of the CT is to reproduce in its secondary winding a current I' that is proportional to the primary current I. The CT converts primary currents in the kiloamp range to secondary currents in the 0–5 ampere range for convenience of measurement.
    
    The function of the relay is to discriminate between normal operation and fault conditions. The OC relay in Figure 2 has an operating coil, which is connected to the CT secondary winding, and a set of contacts. When |I'| exceeds a specified ''pickup'' value, the operating coil causes the normally open contacts to close. When the relay contacts close, the trip coil of the circuit breaker is energized, which then causes the circuit breaker to open.
    
    System-protection components have the following design criteria:
    • Reliability: Operate dependably when fault conditions occur, even after remaining idle for months or years. Failure to do so may result in costly damages.
    • Selectivity: Avoid unnecessary, false trips.
    • Speed: Operate rapidly to minimize fault duration and equipment damage. Any intentional time delays should be precise.
    • Economy: Provide maximum protection at minimum cost.
    • Simplicity: Minimize protection equipment and circuitry.
    
    Since it is impossible to satisfy all these criteria simultaneously, compromises must be made in system protection.
    
    The book consists from the following sections:
    1. Chapter 1: Power System Faults:
    2. Chapter 2: Instrument Transformers.
    3. Chapter 3: Overcurrent and Earth Fault Protection Relays.
    4. Chapter 4: Radial System Protection.
    5. Chapter 5: Zones of Protection.
    6. Chapter 6: Differential Relays.
    7. Chapter 7: Distance Relays.
    8. Chapter 8: Transformer Protection.
    9. Chapter 9: Generator Protection.
    10. Chapter 10: Busbar Protection.
    11. Chapter 11: Circuit Breakers.
    12. Chapter 12: Fuses.
    13. Chapter 13: References.
