Whole System Design is increasingly being seen as a cost-effective way to both increase productivity and reduce negative environmental impacts of an engineered system.
|
Filling a new need in engineering education, Getting Design Right integrates aspects from both design and systems engineering to provide a solid understanding of the fundamental principles and best practices in these areas.
|
This book explains questions like what gives objects their color, why does copper conduct electricity but glass does not, why carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas while oxygen and nitrogen are not.
|
This book records the persistence, determination and courage of the people who first set out to discover what lay in the heart of our challenging and often barren continent.
