Product Description
Pupil's become familiar with the project-based approach, where knowledge and understanding are enhanced by on-going tasks. Emphasis is placed upon encouraging pupils to provide appropriate assessment evidence, enabling them to produce a coherent folder of work demonstrating their designing and making skills. Industrial case studies help introduce pupils to manufacturing terminology and concepts needed at GCSE. The pupil's book has been created to minimise the amount of text, making it readable for the age group and providing a high level of visual stimulus. This attracts pupils' attention, helps to stimulate and retain their interest and promotes action to assist their understanding and recall of information. ... Read more

Product Description
This is a fully revised and updated edition of a widely used introductory textbook on electromagnetism.It covers all the fundamental aspects of this important topic in electrical engineering. The approach is eminently practical and requires little mathematics other than elementary differentiation, integration, and trigonometry. It will continue to appeal to students studying this conceptually challenging but fundamental subject.New sections on electromechanics (conversion of electric and magnetic energy in mechanical energy and vice versa) and high-frequency phenomena (transmission lines, waveguides, optical fibres, and radio propagation) enhance the usefulness of the book. ...

Prompt delivery, book was in great shape. I'd buy my next textbook this way!

Great Introduction to Coding Theory
The greatest quality of this book is that all the author expects the reader to have is a basic mathematics background (a Discrete Structures background of basic Set Theory). It contains consise explanations and straightforward proofs to all the essential theorems of the subject,but, fortunately, is NOT too elementary that it loses its true mathematical appeal. To top it all, it is chock-full of excellent applied problems in communications, image transmission, and even a party trick here or there (oh yes, friends WILL be impressed when you can error-correct an ISBN!).
In short, I think this book serves as a wonderful textbook into introductory Coding theory. And as for the subject of Coding Theory in general, maybe to spark a bit more interest in some potential customers, a thorough study of the theory will bring together all types of Mathematics (from algebra, calculus, number theory, set theory, finite geometry, and linear algebra).
All will be revealed! ... Read more

Product Description
Demand of food is increasing day by day andperformance of an irrigation system is associatedwith infiltration characteristic of the soil. Anextensive irrigation system is being developed inGreater Thal Canal area that has predominatelycoarser soils which results to higher deeppercolation losses than the losses in othercultivated land. Soil amendments like bentonite havethe potential to be used in reducing infiltrationrate and improving the moisture within rootzone inirrigated environment. Infiltration was describedby the Kostiakov Equation and SIRMOD model was usedto estimate the performance parameters of anirrigation event. Results of the study are presentedin this technical book.This book certainly enhancelearning among researcher, scientists and studentsand helps planning research studies in meeting fooddemands for the survival of humanity on this globebefore its too late.
