Designed for use in a second course in circuit analysis, this text engages a full spectrum of circuit analysis related subjects ranging from the most abstract to the most practical. This is not a math text. However, the differential equations and Laplace transformation material presented in this text is adequate for the derivation of pertinent relations and there is no need to refer to advanced math texts. Featured are methods of expressing signals in terms of the elementary functions, an introduction to second order circuits, and several examples of analyzing electric circuits using Laplace t

Applied Calculus blends elements of reform with a strong emphasis on applications, and uses technology to promote understanding of the concepts and relevance of the material. Users praise the diversity, breadth, and abundance of examples and exercises, a large number of which are based on referenced data from business, economics, life, and social sciences. The authors carefully strike a pedagogically sound balance between applications based on real data and more traditional "generic" applications. An extensive companion web site contains interactive tutorials, comprehensive chapter summaries

A popular design trend, green roofs make private and public buildings inviting and environmentally friendly. Green roofs offer many aesthetic benefits as well as environmental ones. Landscape architect Steven Cantor gives the basic terminology of green roof design, defines the green roof types, reviews materials of construction and methods of installation, and explores sixty projects in detail, identifying the design process, the program for the project, and the specific application of green roof design and technology. He gives design professionals and students a thorough introduction to the a

Even a relatively small garden is a miniature ecosystem. It includes a surprising diversity of organisms that interact in a myriad of ways. Some are permanent residents, others come and go in search of a meal or a mate. An insect feeding on a garden plant is simultaneously hunted by predators and weakened by parasites; it competes with other herbivores for choice food plants; it is hindered in its feeding by the plants’ chemical and physical defenses; and it challenges other members of its species for the best mates and locations for egg-laying. Ecologists Carroll and Salt argue that the

The concept that peope have of themselves as a ’person’ is one of the most intimate notions that they hold. Yet the way in which the category of the person is conceived varies over time and space. In this volume, anthropologists, philosophers, and historians examine the notion of the person in different cultures, past and present. Taking as their starting point a lecture on the person as a category of the human mind, given by Marcel Mauss in 1938, the contributors critically assess Mauss’s speculation that ntions of the person, rather than being primarily philosophical or psy

This unique and cutting-edge book takes Lean beyond your four walls to the end-to-end supply chain. The authors discuss how to integrate the total value stream ? vertically, horizontally, and laterally and achieve success through empowered people and teams, cultural transformation, and an integration of Lean, Six Sigma, Kaizen, and enabling technologies such as ERP, SCM, APS, CRM, PLM, networks, exchangers, and portals. Using the Lean Extended Enterprise Reference Model (LEERM), the authors demonstrate that by deploying the right methodologies and technologies to the right situation you can ac
