This systematic exploration of real-world stress analysis has been completely updated to reflect state-of-the-art methods and applications now used in aeronautical, civil, and mechanical engineering, and engineering mechanics. Distinguished by its exceptional visual interpretations of solutions, Advanced Mechanics of Materials and Applied Elasticity offers in-depth coverage for both students and engineers. The authors carefully balance comprehensive treatments of solid mechanics, elasticity, and computer-oriented numerical methods—preparing readers for both advanced study and professional practice in design and analysis.

This is the first college text on safety and loss prevention in chemical production plants. For Jr/Sr/Grad courses in health and safety in the chemical process industry or in environmental engineering for chemical engineers.

Designed for both one- and two-course sequences, this guide helps learners transition to the engineering way of thinking, as they master abstract thermodynamics concepts in the context of real-world applications and practical calculations. Both rigorous and accessible, this concise guide offers focused coverage of everything students need to learn at the sophomore/junior undergraduate level, without unnecessary details or derivations. To support most instructors' approaches to teach chemical engineering thermodynamics, Part I focuses on the First and Second Laws, with applications to pure fluids (e.g., power generation and refrigeration cycles. Part II focuses on phase equilibrium (vapor/liquid, ideal and non-ideal solutions) as well as chemical equilibrium. Updates to this edition include improved organization, more concise coverage of phase equilibrium theory, expanded coverage of flow processes, and many new examples, especially in distillation.

Now updated throughout, Process Control: Modeling, Design, and Simulation, 2nd Edition remains the only process control textbook that integrates MATLAB-based numerical solutions, fundamental content, and detailed illustrative examples throughout. Its up-to-date example modules offer deeper treatment of specific example processes and systems, and it thoroughly integrates the use of MATLAB code and Simulink block diagrams to solve problems. B. Wayne Bequette systematically introduces undergraduate chemical and biological engineering students to the essentials of process modeling, dynamics and control, offers extensive background material for graduate process control courses, and shares valuable insights for practitioners who want to understand modern model-based control techniques. Coverage in this edition includes:Motivating biomedical examples (closed-loop artificial pancreas)More examples of the importance of process control in satisfying safetyAdditional material on digital implementation of PID and IMCMore content on model predictive control

Today, chemical engineering students need a thorough understanding of momentum, heat, mass transfer, and separation processes. Transport Processes and Separation Process Principles, Fifth Edition offers a unified and up-to-date treatment of all these topics. Thoroughly updated to reflect the field's latest methods and software technologies, it covers both fundamental principles and practical applications.

This edition is suitable as a text for Chemical Process Dynamics or Introductory Chemical Process Control courses at the junior/senior level. Also, for Numerical Methods courses in chemical engineering. The goal of this book is to provide an introduction to the modeling, analysis, and simulation of the dynamic behavior of chemical processes.
