	<title>Introduction to Polymer Science and Technology</title>
	<link>http://www.free-ebooks.net/ebook/introduction-to-polymer-science-and-technology</link>
	<description><![CDATA[This book covers polymerisation and polymers at a basic level, with emphasis on the delineation of the concepts and their relevance in practical terms. Highlighting the attractive features of polymers as engineering materials, it should appeal to those involved in learning and teaching as well as those working in the polymer-related industry. Topics include polymerisation, production methods for polymers and physical, mechanical and thermal properties. As a textbook it can be covered in two halves, concentrating on polymer-chemistry and polymer-physics related topics.<script src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~s/FreeE-booksFree-ebooksnet?i=http://free-ebooks.net/goto.php?id=1334310916" type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"></script>]]></description>

	<title>An Introduction to Nonlinearity in Control Systems</title>
	<link>http://www.free-ebooks.net/ebook/an-introduction-to-nonlinearity-in-control-systems</link>
	<description><![CDATA[The book is concerned with the effects of nonlinearity in feedback control systems and techniques which can be used to design feedback loops containing nonlinear elements. After a short introductory chapter on nonlinearity and its possible effects the use of phase plane methods for nonlinear second order systems is discussed.  The next three chapters cover the describing function method and its applications in the determination of limit cycles, stability analysis and the prediction of unique nonlinear behaviour such as jump resonance and subharmonic generation.  The following chapter shows using the Tsypkin approach how in feedback loops with a relay nonlinearity any limit cycles and their stability can be found exactly.  Examples are given which cover some unique forms of limit cycles such as limit cycles with a sliding mode and multipulse limit cycles, which can be caused by resonant plant transfer functions.  In recent years with the advent of microprocessor controllers there has been considerable interest in techniques for controller tuning based on limit cycle data and this is the topic covered in the next chapter. The analyses used make use of both the describing function method and the Tsypkin method presented in the previous chapters. The next topic covered is absolute stability methods for a nonlinear feedback loop with a single nonlinearity with emphasis placed on frequency domain methods to allow comparison with describing function results.  The final chapter covers some methods for the design of nonlinear systems. The material is of an introductory nature but hopefully gives an overview and provides a basic understanding of various topics, many developed in recent years, and several of which have entire textbooks devoted to them.<script src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~s/FreeE-booksFree-ebooksnet?i=http://free-ebooks.net/goto.php?id=1334310915" type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"></script>]]></description>

	<title>Fundamentals of Chemistry</title>
	<link>http://www.free-ebooks.net/ebook/fundamentals-of-chemistry</link>
	<description><![CDATA[This book is about fundamental concepts that any chemistry student should not only be aware of but proficient at.  This book deals with the states of matter, the mole, the shapes of molecules, the elements and their properties in the periodic table, the electronic structure of the elements and includes many numerical examples to apply the newly-learned concepts.  Solutions to the exercises will be provided in the second volume of “Fundamental of Chemistry”. <script src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~s/FreeE-booksFree-ebooksnet?i=http://free-ebooks.net/goto.php?id=1334310913" type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"></script>]]></description>

	<title>Food Processing</title>
	<link>http://www.free-ebooks.net/ebook/food-processing</link>
	<description><![CDATA[This e-book book aimed at undergraduates and practitioners who have an interest in food process engineering.  It is designed to provide an overview of the many operations associated with the processing of raw food materials to produce products which are creative, palatable and safe to eat. It covers basic food chemistry and ingredients through to mixing, unsteady steady state heat transfer in freezing for preservation and thermal processing and sterilization.<script src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~s/FreeE-booksFree-ebooksnet?i=http://free-ebooks.net/goto.php?id=1334310912" type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"></script>]]></description>

	<title>Concepts in Electric Circuits</title>
	<link>http://www.free-ebooks.net/ebook/concepts-in-electric-circuits</link>
	<description><![CDATA[This book covers fundamental aspects of electric circuits that form the core of many engineering disciplines. In particular, basic circuit elements and their characteristics are presented when connected in an electric network. In addition, techniques to analyse and solve electric circuits are explained in a simple manner and examples are shown to demonstrate each strategy. DC as well as AC circuit analysis is provided with a brief account of filters in the end. Difficult electric circuit concepts such as sinusoids and phasors are explicated in an effective way so that basic understanding can be properly achieved.<script src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~s/FreeE-booksFree-ebooksnet?i=http://free-ebooks.net/goto.php?id=1334310911" type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"></script>]]></description>

	<title>Wind Turbines</title>
	<link>http://www.free-ebooks.net/ebook/wind-turbines</link>
	<description><![CDATA[The need for this type of book is very well documented, the current consumption of energy is unsustainable and humans have to change their habits and or utilise this source and other sources of renewable energy such as solar, hydro and biomass, but there is so much work before we can rely completely on renewable energy sources. This book aims to describe the fundamentals of wind energy and the pertinent parameters that control the amount of energy available from a given wind turbine. The book is complimented by many worked examples of the calculations, and finally presents a case study of a typical wind turbine evaluation.<script src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~s/FreeE-booksFree-ebooksnet?i=http://free-ebooks.net/goto.php?id=1334310910" type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"></script>]]></description>

	<title>Bioethanol: Science and technology of fuel alcohol</title>
	<link>http://www.free-ebooks.net/ebook/bioethanol-science-and-technology-of-fuel-alcohol</link>
	<description><![CDATA[Biofuels play significant roles in decarbonisation of our future energy needs and act to mitigate deleterious impacts of greenhouse gas emissions. Bioethanol - fermentation-derived fuel alcohol - is the world’s leading transportation biofuel and is currently produced from cereal and sugarcane feedstocks. However, the future lies with more sustainable fermentation substrates, including bio-wastes from agriculture and woody biomass.

This book provides a timely overview of biomass-to-bioethanol conversion technologies and is aimed mainly at advanced students of biological and environmental sciences. <script src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~s/FreeE-booksFree-ebooksnet?i=http://free-ebooks.net/goto.php?id=1334310909" type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"></script>]]></description>

	<title>Hydrocarbons</title>
	<link>http://www.free-ebooks.net/ebook/hydrocarbons</link>
	<description><![CDATA[The book is concerned with properties  such as density, refractive index,  acoustic impedance and electrical conductivities of hydrocarbon  substances.  Pure organic compounds feature early in the book chiefly to set benchmark values for the various physical properties later discussed for hydrocarbon products. These include petroleum products across the  entire  distillation range as well as petroleum residue. Natural gas condensate, liquefied gases, coal tars, biodiesels and alcohol fuels also feature in the book.<script src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~s/FreeE-booksFree-ebooksnet?i=http://free-ebooks.net/goto.php?id=1334310908" type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"></script>]]></description>
