C IVIL E NGINEERING
SELFING AND CROSSING
CONCEPT
Bairagi, Nisith K., Retired, Professor of
Structral Engineering, IIT, Bombay.
Partially set concretes are the concretes left
exposed idle till the time of casting. These
concretes are neither fully fresh nor fully dead,
but are in between these two. Even today no
information about the systematic study on the
behaviour of partially set concretes is available
in published literature or elsewhere. The
experience gained from the extensive pioneering works of the author for
over three decades or so in this area on varieties of concretes, led the
author to formulate the technical theory, and propose an altogether new
concept namely, Selfing and Crossing, which forms the subject matter
dealt elaborately and vividly in this present book.
The concept of Selfing and Crossing along with several illustrations of
practical importance has been explained first, which is followed by
categorization and definitions of various types of Selfing and Crossing.
The efficiency and usefulness of the proposed Selfing and Crossing
formulations have been demonstrated on a large variety of practical
field problems providing step by step calculation procedure in details
with suitable explanations and remarks. The book ends with critical
remarks on various phases and items along with hints of probable scope
for future extension for which an Appendix on Spring Function has been
added. This book will be of great help to the students of UG, PG and
research scholars of Civil engineering. Persons involved in concreting
work at site, or in design of concrete structures, will also be equally
benefited.

HUMAN VALUES
Tripathi, A.N., Professor of Electrical Engg., IT,
BHU, Varanasi, U.P
The book presents a holistic picture of the good
life, which transcends the prevalent narrow
understanding of what constitutes success, fulfilment
and happiness in life. It offers a fresh interpretation
of human values as the collectivity of all those
values which enrich the different dimensions of
life-material, societal, psychological, aesthetic,
ethical and spiritual. A harmonious realisation of
all these values helps us grow as truly and fully human persons. The
book synthesises ideas drawn from both the classical Indian value
tradition and the modern western humanistic thought. The two are
looked upon as being complementary and not antagonistic.
The book should appeal to all those who are concerned about questions
like how to be a good person?, how to live a good life?, and how to help
create a good society? It should be of special interest to professionals.
They are now expected not only to solve specific technical problems
competently, but also to examine their work in relation to the larger
social, ethical and human context. To equip them with such competency,
some universities and institutes have introduced courses on value-
related themes. The book should prove helpful as a textbook for such
courses.

CONTROL SYSTEM
TRENDS IN TURBO-
MACHINERY
Rangwala, A.S., Technical Director of Machinery
Dynamics Group of the Center for Engg. Tech.,
Orlando, Fl.
The speeds at which modern turbo-machines
such as aircraft engines and power generation
turbines operate are so high and the time
available to react to a possible emergency
situation so small that human interface is mostly of little consequence.
The automatic control system built inside modern turbo-machines
senses, measures and conrols operating parameters while the engine is
running. If one or more operating parameters goes beyond set limits
because of a malfunction, the control system has the capability to detect
the fault, establish a course of corrective action, issue instructions, and
execute the commands that will rectify the situation. The entire
sequence of detecting, evaluating, and taking remedial action occurs
over a period that is timed in milliseconds.
This book provides detailed procedures for automatic control theory and
its methods to improve efficiency by reducing fuel consumption, and in
the process also reduce exhaust gas emissions. The book focuses on:
Fuel consumption, power output and exhaust gas emissions
State-of-the-art in sensor and actuator technologies
Achieving target objectives through creative controller design
Analyse complex problems ranging from compressor stall to
controlling rotor vibrations
Real-time simulation to maximise operating efficiency

DESIGN
Siddiqui, K.USingh, Manoj Kumar, Lecturer,
Deptt. of Mechanical Engineering, Azad Instt. of
Engg. and Tech., Lucknow, U.P.
The commonly referred to mechanical systems
today do not comprise only of mechanisms and
mechanical components but often are results of
multidisciplinary synthesis of mechanical,
electronic, computer and information system
based elements. Representative examples are a
robot, a washing machine and a computer printer.
To be able to evolve such products and work in multidisciplinary teams, a
very clear understanding of flow of material, energy and information is
needed; points of observation and places of interfaces to outside
systems need to be specified.
As compared to well-established products, these new products require
to be evolved from the concept to function to design to prototyping and
testing stages. Due to increasing short life of product designs, these
proceses have to be carried out in ever decreasing time spans. This can
be achieved often by resorting to model-based computer simulation,
virtual prototyping and rapid prototyping techniques.
Computer simulation requires mathematical model of the system to be
built with all the interacting components and it leads to design
development and optimization; virtual prototyping helps in designing real
world interfaces and spatial description. Rapid prototyping helps in
actual testing of the product. A systems-based approach to mechanical
design helps in carrying out all these activities.

NUMERICAL METHODS FOR
ENGINEERS
Gupta, Santosh Kumar, Lecturer, Deptt. of
Electronics & Tele Communication Engg., National
Institute of Technology, Silcha.
This book is intended to be a text for either a first
or a second course in numerical methods for
students in all engineering disciplines. Difficult
concepts, which usually pose problems to
students are explained in detail and illustrated
with solved examples. Enough elementary
material that could be covered in the first-level course is included, for
example, methods for solving linear and nonlinear algebraic equations,
interpolation, differentiation, integration, and simple techniques for
integrating ODEs and PDEs (ordinary and partial differential equations).
Advanced techniques and concepts that could form part of a second-
level course includeGears method for solving ODE-IVPs (initial value
problems), stiffness of ODE- IVPs, multiplicity of solutions, convergence
characteristics, the orthogonal collocation method for solving ODE-BVPs
(boundary value problems) and finite element techniques. An extensive
set of graded problems, often with hints, has been included. Some
involve simple applications of the concepts and can be solved using a
calculator, while several are from real-life situations and require writing
computer programs or use of library subroutines. Practice on these is
expected to build up the reader's confidence in developing large
computer codes.

has tried to fulfil. It can now fulfil the need of a reference textbook in
alternate iron making area for undergraduate and post graduate
students in Metallurgical, Production, Manufacturing, Chemical,
Materials and to a minor extent Mechanical Engineering disciplines. The
aim of fulfilling the needs of entrepreneurs and plant operators has not
only been retained; it has been elaborated. Further, the basic aspects
have been presented in a way that is lucid and simple to understand and
should serve as an incentive to the operators and entrepreneurs to
develop a deeper understanding of the process. A chapter on reaction
kinetics has been included as also a section on iron ore and pellets. Other
sections included are on Aerodynamics, Auto Ignition, Coal Throwing,
etc. Some advanced features have been introduced such as
Mathematical Modeling, Computational Fluid Dynamics, Reduction
Mechanism, etc. to give researchers in the area food for thought.

Aims at the level between that of elementary
probability texts and advanced works on stochastic
processes. The pre-requisites are a course on
elementary probability theory and statistics, and
a course on advanced calculus. The theoretical
results developed have been followed by a large
number of illustrative (worked) examples. These
have been supplemented by numerous exercises,
answers to most of which are also given. It is expected to suit as a text for
advanced undergraduate, postgraduate and research level courses in
Applied Mathematics, Statistics, Operations Research, Computer
Science, different branches of Engineering, Telecommunications, Business
and Management, Economics, Life Sciences and so on.
A review of the Ist edition of the book in the American Mathematical
Monthly (December 1982) gives this book special positive emphasis as
a textbook as this is the clear choice amongst about a dozen or more
texts (TAV).
A review of the 2nd edition (1994) in the Journal of the Operational Res.
Society, U.K. (1996) commended it As before it rightly deserves to be
`nominated` as the first choice (Jim Freeman).
The current 3rd edition (2009) further updates the material and
references and adds new chapters on Martingales and Simulation.
