Heat Exchange of Tubular Surfaces in a Bubbling Boiling Bed bridges the gap surrounding the study of a boiling bed of large particles with smooth and ribbed pipes, as well as pipe bundles. The book's authors combine results from experimental studies with their varied practical experience in fields of boiling bed applications across various disciplines such as chemical, pharmacological, metallurgical and power engineering industries. This book provides readers with a deep practical understanding of how to calculate the heat engineering parameters of ribbed pipe bundles in a boiling bed, along with the hydrodynamics of the boiling bed.Researchers and experts involved in the design, development and operation of boiling bed apparatus will follow step-by-step methods and procedures to gain knowledge of the hydrodynamic and heat exchange elements of the boiling bed which can be applied to their own settings. The effect of gas velocity, size and properties of the dispersed material, the geometric characteristics of the pipe bundle is also presented, alongside data on the effect of high temperature and high pressure of gas in a dispersed system on heat exchange intensity.

Untethered Small-Scale Robots for Biomedical Applications introduces the principle, design, fabrication and application of small-scale robots for biomedical applications. Robots in the scale of nanometer, micrometer and millimeter are described in detail, along with their impact on the field of biomedical engineering. The selected examples of robots across different scales are of the most essential and innovative designs in a small-scale robot with various application settings for biomechanics characterization, drug delivery and surgical procedure. The representative robots represented operate robustly and safely in complex physiological environments where they have a transformative impact in bioengineering and healthcare. This book will lead the audience to the field of small-scale robots through the description of the physics in the small scale, design and fabrication of small-scale robots, and how these robots may impact the future of biomedical studies and minimally-invasive surgical procedures.

This third edition of Design of Experiments for Engineers and Scientists adds to the tried and trusted tools that were successful in so many engineering organizations with new coverage of design of experiments (DoE) in the service sector. Case studies are updated throughout, and new ones are added on dentistry, higher education, and utilities.Although many books have been written on DoE for statisticians, this book overcomes the challenges a wider audience faces in using statistics by using easy-to-read graphical tools. Readers will find the concepts in this book both familiar and easy to understand, and users will soon be able to apply them in their work or research. This classic book is essential reading for engineers and scientists from all disciplines tackling all kinds of product and process quality problems and will be an ideal resource for students of this topic.

Material Modeling with the Visco-Plastic Self-Consistent (VPSC) Approach

Material Modeling with the Visco-Plastic Self-Consistent (VPSC) Approach: Theory and Practical Applications provides readers with knowledge of material viscoplasticity and robust modeling approaches for predicting plastic deformation of crystal aggregates. Visco-Plastic Self-Consistent (VPSC) is the identifier of a computer code developed for the specific mechanical regime addressed (visco-plastic: VP) and the approach used (self-consistent: SC) meant to simulate large plastic deformation of aggregates, thermo-elastic material deformation, as well as predict stress-strain response, texture evolution of aggregates and stress-strain state inside grains. This approach is very versatile and able to tackle arbitrary material symmetry (cubic, hexagonal, trigonal, orthorhombic, triclinic), twinning, and multiphase aggregates. It accounts for hardening, reorientation and shape change of individual grains, and can be applied to the deformation of metals, inter-metallics and geologic aggregates. Readers will have access to a companion website where they can download code and modify its input/output or add subroutines covering specific simulation research needs.
