User Interface Design and Evaluation provides an overview of the user-centered design field. It illustrates the benefits of a user-centered approach to the design of software, computer systems, and websites. The book provides clear and practical discussions of requirements gathering, developing interaction design from user requirements, and user interface evaluation. The book's coverage includes established HCI topics—for example, visibility, affordance, feedback, metaphors, mental models, and the like—combined with practical guidelines for contemporary designs and current trends, which makes for a winning combination. It provides a clear presentation of ideas, illustrations of concepts, using real-world applications. This book will help readers develop all the skills necessary for iterative user-centered design, and provides a firm foundation for user interface design and evaluation on which to build. It is ideal for seasoned professionals in user interface design and usability engineering (looking for new tools with which to expand their knowledge); new people who enter the HCI field with no prior educational experience; and software developers, web application developers, and information appliance designers who need to know more about interaction design and evaluation. - Co-published by the Open University, UK. - Covers the design of graphical user interfaces, web sites, and interfaces for embedded systems. - Full color production, with activities, projects, hundreds of illustrations, and industrial applications.

DESIGN OF THREE-PHASE AC POWER ELECTRONICS CONVERTERS Comprehensive resource on design of power electronics converters for three-phase AC applications Design of Three-phase AC Power Electronics Converters contains a systematic discussion of the three-phase AC converter design considering various electrical, thermal, and mechanical subsystems and functions. Focusing on establishing converter components and subsystems models needed for the design, the text demonstrates example designs for these subsystems and for the whole three-phase AC converters considering interactions among subsystems. The design methods apply to different applications and topologies. The text presents the basics of the three-phase AC converter, its design, and the goal and organization of the book, focusing on the characteristics and models important to the converter design for components commonly used in three-phase AC converters. The authors present the design of subsystems, including passive rectifiers, inverters and active rectifiers, electromagnetic interference (EMI) filters, thermal management system, control and auxiliaries, mechanical system, and application considerations, and discuss design optimization, which presents methodology to achieve optimal design results for three-phase AC converters. Specific sample topics covered in Design of Three-phase AC Power Electronics Converters include: Models and characteristics for devices most commonly used in three-phase converters, including conventional Si devices, and emerging SiC and GaN devices Models and selection of various capacitors; characteristics and design of magnetics using different types of magnetic cores, with a focus on inductors Optimal three-phase AC converter design including design and selection of devices, AC line inductors, DC bus capacitors, EMI filters, heatsinks, and control. The design considers both steady-state and transient conditions Load and source impact converter design, such as motors and grid condition impacts For researchers and graduate students in power electronics, along with practicing engineers working in the area of three-phase AC converters, Design of Three-phase AC Power Electronics Converters serves as an essential resource for the subject and may be used as a textbook or industry reference.
