This book is a relatively short but comprehensive guide to professional ethics and law that is primarily intended as study material for all those who need to take the National Professional Practice Examination (NPPE). It can be used as a textbook for a one-term undergraduate course on the subject. It may also prove to be a valuable and handy reference for practicing engineering or geoscience professionals. Its text addresses the issues that have been observed with some annoyance by many candidates studying for the NPPE to become professional engineers and geoscientists. Overwhelmed by the 1300+ pages of official Study Materials? Unable to match the NPPE Syllabus to the Study Materials? Disappointed to find missing NPPE Syllabus topics from those 1300+ pages? Frustrated at having to do additional research to cover those missing topics? Having a hard time monitoring your progress? If your answers are Yes, then this book is definitely for you! 240 pages. All topics covered. No further research needed. It matches and follows the Syllabus! Having the proper study aid makes a huge difference when it comes to mastering the required concepts. While reading this book, you will know exactly how much of the NPPE Syllabus you have covered. A glance at the Table of Contents will lead you to the topic you want.

Octogenarian aerospace engineer Peter Hughes identified 6 critical points in his life at which an important decision was required, and where the rest of his life could have been quite different, depending on that decision. In every case, he was completely free to make the decision. In Six Degrees of Freedom, Hughes reflects on a full lifetime, including several work environments, his contributions to the aerospace industry (including work on the Canadarm), a passion for applied mathematics, family life, business and entrepreneurship, travel experience, and medical science. In so doing, and through his wry humor, he provides the reader thoughtful insight and useful life and career lessons.

Monomers composed of carbon and hydrogen atoms are the simple building blocks that make up polyolefins - molecules which are extremely useful and which have an extraordinary range of properties and applications. How these monomer molecules are connected in the polymer chain defines the molecular architecture of polyolefins. Written by two world-renowned authors pooling their experience from industry and academia, this book adopts a unique engineering approach using elegant mathematical modeling techniques to relate polymerization conditions, reactor and catalyst type to polyolefin properties. Readers thus learn how to design and optimize polymerization conditions to produce polyolefins with a given microstructure, and how different types of reactors and processes are used to create the different products. Aimed at polymer chemists, plastics technologists, process engineers,the plastics industry, chemical engineers, materials scientists, and company libraries.

This book describes an approach to engineering education that integrates a comprehensive set of personal, interpersonal, and professional engineering skills with engineering disciplinary knowledge in order to prepare innovative and entrepreneurial engineers. The education of engineers is set in the context of engineering practice, that is, Conceiving, Designing, Implementing, and Operating (CDIO) through the entire lifecycle of engineering processes, products, and systems. The book is both a description of the development and implementation of the CDIO model and a guide to engineering programs worldwide that seek to improve the education of young engineers.
