5 out of 5 stars Excellent presentation of mathematics for the engineering technician.......2007-09-05

Allyn Washington's Basic Technical Mathematics is well known in the engineering technology community. It has been used at many technical colleges for years and has become a "standard" by which other technical mathematics books are judged. Through seven editions (now eight) this book has probably introduced more engineering technicians to mathematics than any other. Explanations are clear, examples abundant, and review problems are plentiful. There is a student solutions manual that is reasonably priced (about $30.00) that can be purchased. The book progresses from basic mathematics all the way through trigonometric functions, complex numbers, matrices and analytic geometry. Math is not an easy subject to grasp, but if you are determined to learn this subject and are willing to spend the time, I can't think of a better textbook to learn from.

Book Description

Herbert Zettl draws on his expertise and field experience to bring you the new edition of VIDEO BASICS, the handiest and most authoritative, current, and technically accurate student guide to video production. Meeting the need for a briefer book, this text distills comprehensive video instruction so that it can be covered in a single semester. The book moves students from video concepts and processes to production tools and techniques, and finally, to the production environment (studio and field, inside and outside) and its effects. A more conceptual framework leads the student from the idea (what to create) to the image (how to create) on video.

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars A Great Start.......2006-03-02

This book is a must for anyone getting into video production. Full of basic information that is conveyed in an intuitive and concise way, plus there is plenty of advanced knowledge to keep you referring back for years to come. Definitely a staple for all video people.

5 out of 5 stars Very Good.......2004-01-24

My boss told me to buy this book, and it is one of the best available book.

4 out of 5 stars great book!!.......2002-08-09

i am an electronic media communications major and this book has been used for a number of years in my school's communications program. video basics 3 has everything you need to know and everything is explained in much detail, yet not too complicated. there are great illustrations throughout the book that are very helpful as well.
i bought this book used from my campus bookstore and i gotta wonder, why would someone return this book at the end of the semester? i still have mine and have re-read it through quite a few times, most definately something worth holding on to!

5 out of 5 stars Superlative.......2002-04-24

This book gives a broad overview of the field of video. It is intended as a textbook for students in a university video course, however, the information that it contains will be valuable for anyone interested in improving their video skills, especially in professional contexts. Since the book is a textbook, each chapter begins with a list of key terms and definitions, and key concepts are highlighted in the text and repeated at the end of the chapter. Each chapter also contains instructions for a lesson in Zettl's Video Lab on CD (not included). The book covers many topics related to professional video production, including the video production process, the video team, video cameras, lighting, sound, editing, and the studio. I found the language to be very straightforward and highly informative.

1 out of 5 stars Bad Copies.......2002-01-30

5 out of 5 stars From an Industrial Practitioner of Process Measurement & Control.......2006-07-10

This book is an excellent reference on Chemical Engineering Principles and Calculations for any engineer or practitioner working in the process industries. I am an Electronic Engineer, but I have been working for the last 16 years as an Instrumentation, Automation and Process Control Engineer for the Oil & Gas Industry. As a result I have been involved with Chemical Engineering issues in a day to day basic.

I have found this book to be an ideal self-study guide. In this Edition the authors have included several categories of problems sets to assist in self-study. Self-assessment tests with answers (in Appendix A) follow each section, and thought and discussion problems follow the self-assessment tests.

If a non Chemical Engineer can learn Chemical Engineering Principles from this book, I guarantee that any Chemical Engineering student or practitioner will find this readable textbook very useful.

5 out of 5 stars Chemical/Process Engineer.......2006-06-30

This book is well worth the money. I was very impressed by the examples and excellent explanations. Highly recommend this book to any chemical or process engineer

5 out of 5 stars A winner text!.......2004-07-29

This book is a classic . With all my respects to the next authors , this book belongs from its initial release to a selected dinasty of works made with an unusual passion style , and that invisible factor seems to make the clear difference . The presentation , the precise comments and the appraoch given to every chapter where the essential concepts of Mass balance or Energy balance are so brilliantly shown that it is literally impossible for you not to win with this .
And after you bought it you will wonder in silent voice of course ( Do we need a teacher for Chemical Engineering Principles? ) .
If you acquire this one and then the Whitwell and Tonner (see my review) , How can you lose ?

5 out of 5 stars solving simultaneou material and energy balance.......2003-09-30

When coal is distilled by heating without contact with air, a wide variety of solid, liquid, and gadeous products of commercial importance is produced, as well as some significant air pollutants. The nature and amounts of the products produced depend on the temperature used in the decomposition and the type of coal. At low temperatures(400 to 750 Centigrade)the yield of synthesis gas is small relative to the yield of liquid products,whereas at high temperatures (above 900 Centigrade) the reverse is true.For the typical process flowsheet,shown in Figure P6.23:
(a)How many tons of the various products are being produced?
(b)Make an energy balance around the primary dislillation tower and benzol tower.
(c)How much (in pounds) of 40% NaOH solution is used per day for the purification of phenol?
(d)How much 50% Sulfuric acid is used per day in the pyridine purification?
(e)What weight of Sodium Sulfate is produced per day by the plant?
(f)How many cubic feet of gas per day are produced? What percent of the gas (volume)is needed for the ovens?

5 out of 5 stars A fantastic book.......2000-06-19

Basic Principles and Calculations in Chemical Engineering is an excellent text book. The First Chapter explains essential definitions and informations that we need before studying Chemical Engineering. This Chapter also explains English unit system. In overall, the book in very useful for teaching Chemical Engineering undergraduate students. It helps the lecturers how to teach and the students how to learn material and energy balance which in essential to know for all chemical engineers. The only problem with this book is the English units which are not currently used very often. If the author could change the English units to SI units, it would be great.

Well, a book serves as a summary of optical systems intro.
Formulas pop up without derivations, some chapters are just a few pages long. Published 7 years ago, some pictures are hard to see the details or even the sketch..

5 out of 5 stars Optical System Design.......2006-03-09

This is the exact book i needed. It is an excellent summary of optical principles, and their utilization in optical systems. The design examples are great for illustrating the underlying principles. The level is great for professionals (as a review), or for anyone wanting to learn the principles of optics design. I highly recommend this book, there are lots of references for deeper study. This would be an excellent textbook for a class in optical design.

5 out of 5 stars Practical words of wisdom for optics.......2000-09-28

Fischer gives me good advice that I can look up in a book. For example, I found answers about diffraction efficiency in diffractive optics, and a lens design case study about digital camera lenses. I also enjoyed the bloopers section. This information will help me do my job.

4 out of 5 stars a comprehensive guide to materials and processes.......2001-12-06

This is a very technical handbook for a working mechanical, or electro-mechanical engineer. It includes charts of materials, their densities, their dielectric constants, cross sections of bearings, mechanisms for translating rotary motion into linear motion, page after page of descriptions of fasteners, torque ratings for different screws, pictures of industrial lathes, analysis of mechanical damage suffered by high current machinery due to electrical fields, etc.

Fascinating, if you're the kind of person who subscribes to Home Shop Machinist, but not light reading by any means.

3 out of 5 stars Mostly mechanical, with basic electronics........2001-08-27

Electro-mechanical suggests the book would have info on motors, solenoids, and other electromechanical items, but it has very little. It's mostly mechanical & general engineering stuff, with a very basic chapter on electrical components. Throughout the book, it goes into excessive detail on subjects where the author had material on hand, and glosses over other important areas. If you were going to buy this and Walsh's other book, Machining and Metalworking, buy both Machinery's Handbook and Christiansen's Electronics Engineers' Handbook instead as these cover all the samesubject matter and more.

    Book Description

    Since UV curing (light induced polymerisation of multifunctional oligomers) is a very ecoefficient and energy saving curing method, the growth rates of UV curable coatings are in the range of 10% per year. The typical UV coatings are solvent free (100% solids), thus helping the industry and the environment to reduce significantly VOC (volatile organic compounds). Recently, the automotive industry has discovered that UV cured coatings are very scratch resistant, which stimulated very extensive work into the development of UV coatings for automotive applications. Since UV curing is very universal, also other systems besides the 100% solid (typical) UV coatings are developed, like waterbased UV- , UV powder and Dual cure (UV and thermal) systems.
    UV Coatings contains an overview of the technology, the curing process including the equipment necessary, the raw materials (resins, diluents, photoinitiators) used, the advantages and drawbacks of this fast emerging technology, as well as proposed technical solutions to tackle the disadvantages. Structure-property relationships will be given, especially regarding the mechanical properties of coatings as well as scratch resistance, mainly dealing with automotive performance criteria.
    The main part of the book will deal with new developments, like water-based UV coatings, UV powder coatings and dual cure systems, cured by UV and thermal energy, which have been developed to cure the coating on three dimensional substrates in shadow areas. The main applications of UV Coatings will be described, starting with the classical ones on temperature sensitive substrates, like wood, paper and plastics, where the UV curable coatings are already well established.

    * Looking at UV curing as a key to scratch resistant automotive clear coats
    * Ecoefficiency of UV Coatings
    * Comprehensive overview of the technology, materials and markets
