electricity

This book it a most have for anyone seeking an in depth knowledge of TV and Video in general

I used Bernad Brob books about Television vhen I studied my carreer of Telecom Eng more than 20 years ago. So I consider that Grob's Books always are good for any specialist in TV Systems.

A Fascinating and timely Scientific History! The new translation of Matricon and Waysand's book "Cold Wars" by Charles Glashausser, is extraordinarily timely and provides much of the background needed to understand the award of this year's Nobel Prize to Abrikosov, Ginzburg and Leggett, for their contributions to the understanding of superconductivity and superfluidity. The book is written in a alluring style, with a superb translation by Glashausser that will be of interest to physicist and non-physicist alike, and tells the tale of trial and tribulation that led to the understanding of superconductivity.

This book did not get the audience it deserved in its original French. With its meticulous yet spirited translation into English, it should catch fire, gripping physicists and laypeople alike with its timely commentary about classic thermodynamic issues.

A. A. Smith's treatise must be the definitive work on field-to-wire coupling. His formulas are repeatedly used to test and verify results from method of moments (MOM) and other codes, and after becoming familiar with his closed-form solutions (which by the way are easily brought into MathCAD) they become an essential tool for predicting EMC interactions. He covers the effects of incident electric and magnetic fields to single and paired wires over an image ground plane, lossy wires and shielded cables. It's a thin book, but every page is worth the price of the book when you need it - and you'll need it often if you're involved in EMC analysis.

The author's name is incorrectly listed as "Alberta Smith". It is actually Albert A. Smith, Jr.

Mr. Smith's book is the seminal treatment of the subject of coupling of electromagnetic fields into transmission lines. Equations are derived and presented for uniform and non-uniform fields, balanced lines, and unbalanced lines over a ground plane. The material is applicable to many real engineering problems commonly encountered.

This book may be considered a reference in the study of electric machines, because it brings the main aspects of electromechanical energy conversion devices without being difficult to understand. Its way for explaining the relations of power/current/torque in induction machines is the best one I've seen in any book.

The most powerfull book in Electric Machinery for the beginners and experts, at the same level of complexity (it's hard to read but it's very interesting in the way of presenting the contents...), requires some background in theory of electrical circuits and systems

This book covers it all: causes of reliability, measures of reliability, component modeling, system modeling, system analysis, and system optimization. It even has a great primer on distribution systems from a reliability perspective.

The great thing about this book is its ability to bridge the gap between theoretical treatment and practical applications. Although it is full of algorithms and equations, all are presented in the context of real applications and real results. It has truly broadened my understanding of of the subject.

This is by far the best book I have seen on reliability planning, evaluation and engineering of electric power delivery systems. The book is well organized and very linear in its progression through its topics, so its makes for a very good textbook or self-study guide, as was the case for me. It has an extremely comprehensive index, which means its should serve as a good, quick reference in the future.

The book is pretty rigorous, and has a good bit of equations and theory, but what I appreciated is that there is a lot of common sense and good recommendations throughout, plus good data and tables on reliability, equipment, expectations, etc. I learned just a lot about distribution systems and reliability, and what to expect and how to make improvements in the real world, from this book.

But what I think is unique about this book and its greatest value was its combination of rigorous analysis of system configuration and indidivual equipment focus. You find a lot of stuff written that focuses on one or the other. There are books and technical papers on methods to analyze systems based on layout, load, switching capabilities, etc. (configuration), but they are often theoretical and neglect issues of equipment. There are also books on equipment lifetime versus loading analysis, condition evaluation and assessment, and maintainability. But rarely are the two combined well, and in one whole analytical method.

This is one of the best engineering books I have.

all type of electrical power testing

This book provides the most comprehensive overview I have found thus far for engineers and field professionals involved in the maintenance and testing electrical power systems and equipment. The author presents the materials very effectively. The book is both an indispensible resource for the practicing engineer, as well as an ideal training tool for teachers and students engaged in primary and continuing education in this field.

This is a very useful and user-friendly book. I am especially impressed by the qualifications of the authors. One is a Certified Plant Engineer and longtime member of the Association for Facilities Engineering, one is a Registered Professional Enginer, and one is a Medical Doctor (board-certified as a physician in general preventive medicine and public health.) The book covers a wide range of topics; the illustrations are very compelling, too. All 12 chapters were dense with facts yet easy to follow.

This is an exceptionally useful and user-friendly handbook. I am particularly impressed by the authors' credentials -- one of them is a Certified Plant Engineer, one is a Registered Professional Engineer, and one of them is a Medical Doctor (board-certified as a physician in general preventive medicine and public health). The illustrations supplement the text very well, too.

This book is a practical book with many concrete information. For exemple the capacity in an high voltage power station or the author explain in very good details what happens during a fault in a circuit breaker. The only point that i find is not so positive is that the solutions manual is not to buy. I use this book for understanding any situations in the power plant.

One of the most notable features of Greenwoods text is he starts with the basics of transient electrical circuit theory and builds up chapter by chapter to the most difficult and misunderstood cases of power system transients. Especially appealing to a practicing power engineer is his dual slant on problem analysis. He not only demonstrates a mastery for the sometimes nasty mathematical analysis of transient problems, he shows his years of practical experience with logical physical explanations that reduce complex problems to several simple circuits problems. I definitely recommend this text for power system engineers interested in the transient response of power systems and how it affects all types of power equipment.

My students and I learned more from this book than we did from our regular text book. It is very visual and helps teach the concepts with clarity!

I enjoyed making the circuits using both the book and the CD-ROM. They both worked really well together. I learned what types of solids stick to magnets and once I went through the entire book and CD I took the quiz and found it fun and easy. I especially liked the slime pit activity.

It is very good book to read. Read it first, before
