Today, switched reluctance machines (SRMs) play an increasingly important role in various sectors due to advantages such as robustness, simplicity of construction, low cost, insensitivity to high temperatures, and high fault tolerance. They are frequently used in fields such as aeronautics, electric and hybrid vehicles, and wind power generation. This book is a comprehensive resource on the design, modeling, and control of SRMs with methods that demonstrate their good performance as motors and generators.

This handbook was prepared with the objective of improving the understanding of the basis for the use of Standard Reference Materials (SRMs). While written from the viewpoint of a chemist, the basic concepts described are believed to be applicable to most areas of metrology. The handbook is arranged by section in a logical progression, starting with the basic concepts of precision & accuracy, followed by discussions of the calibration & quality assurance of the measurement process, the use of SRMs to evaluate various kinds of measurements, & the reporting of data with evaluated limits of uncertainty. Charts & tables.

Developed and expanded from the work presented at the New Energetic Materials and Propulsion Techniques for Space Exploration workshop in June 2014, this book contains new scientific results, up-to-date reviews, and inspiring perspectives in a number of areas related to the energetic aspects of chemical rocket propulsion. This collection covers the entire life of energetic materials from their conceptual formulation to practical manufacturing; it includes coverage of theoretical and experimental ballistics, performance properties, as well as laboratory-scale and full system-scale, handling, hazards, environment, ageing, and disposal. Chemical Rocket Propulsion is a unique work, where a selection of accomplished experts from the pioneering era of space propulsion and current technologists from the most advanced international laboratories discuss the future of chemical rocket propulsion for access to, and exploration of, space. It will be of interest to both postgraduate and final-year undergraduate students in aerospace engineering, and practicing aeronautical engineers and designers, especially those with an interest in propulsion, as well as researchers in energetic materials.

Physicochemical Measurements: Catalogue of Reference Materials from National Laboratories offers information on chemicals, including their density, magnetic susceptibility, calorimetry, molecular conductance, and thermal conductivity. The catalog first offers information on acidimetry, calorimetry, and spectrophotometry and tristimulus colorimetry. The chemicals examined include potassium hydrogen, boric and benzoic acids, heptane, neopentane, and aluminum oxide. The text then presents data on density, dielectric constants, differential thermal analysis, magnetic susceptibility, and molar conductance. The chemicals evaluated include cyclohexane, kerosene, toluene, chlorobenzene, carbon tetrachloride, potassium nitrate, indium, tin, aluminum, platinum, and potassium chloride. The book discusses the molecular weight of polymers, refractive index, relative humidity, specular spectral reflectance, and surface tension. The text also takes a look at thermal conductivity and emissivity and vapor pressure. The catalog is a dependable reference for readers interested in the composition, characteristics, and reactions of chemicals.
