The Mechanics of Fluid - Particle Systems with Special Reference to Agriculture

This monograph and the associated computer program are concerned with the prediction of the trajectory of particles moving relative to fluids.The program is quite general and can be used to plot the trajectory of 'any' particle moving relative to 'any' fluid. However it cannot allow for particle spin or analyse three dimensional problems. The monograph, which assumes a 2nd year level of engineering science, is written particularly for professional agricultural engineering courses but may be of interest in the study of equivalent subjects for chemical or other engineers. It could also form the basis for short courses for practising engineers.

Agricultural Mechanics: Fundamentals & Applications

This trusted text provides a thorough introduction to agricultural mechanics, covering fundamental mechanical and engineering theory, common tools and materials, and a wide range of practical applications. Units explore essential topics such as career opportunities, shop orientation and procedures, woodworking and metal working, tool fitting, project planning, cutting and welding, paints and paint application, power mechanics, electrical wiring, plumbing, hydraulics, concrete and masonry, and agricultural structures. Safety is also emphasized strongly throughout the text, both within each chapter and in a dedicated unit. To engage today's students and make even complicated principles easier to apply, the text features abundant, full-color images, illustrations, charts, and data tables, as well as detailed drawings of over 50 complete project plans. More than 300 of these visuals have been added or updated for the Seventh Edition, which also includes updates to reflect the latest innovations in materials, machinery, and methods, providing a current and comprehensive guide to help students plan and execute agricultural projects effectively. Important Notice: Media content referenced within the product description or the product text may not be available in the ebook version.

Ultimate Guide to Farm Mechanics

A reference and instruction guide to the mechanics of working the land. The Ultimate Guide to Farm Mechanics combines three classic farming texts for the first time, compiling knowledge from the best sources published as far back as 1884. A comprehensive reference book that belongs in any farming household today, it offers an array of farm knowledge for both experts and amateurs alike. The book is divided into three parts: the first covers general skills such as woodworking and blacksmithing, the second is dedicated to farm engines and how to run them, and the third teaches readers how to construct classic labor-saving devices such as an effective milking stool, plowing gear for a kicking mule, and a nest for egg-eating hens. Readers are taught to mend broken tools, make fertilizer and corn fodder, buy engine parts, and manage gasoline engines safely and economically. Filled with intricate illustrations, photos, and diagrams, Ultimate Guide to Farm Mechanics offers a wealth of knowledge still indispensable to the modern-day farmer. Both the casual and amateur reader will learn valuable lessons from the old teachers of early twentieth-century farming in the United States.

Numerical Methods for Engineers

The fifth edition of "Numerical Methods for Engineers" continues its tradition of excellence. Instructors love this text because it is a comprehensive text that is easy to teach from. Students love it because it is written for them--with great pedagogy and clear explanations and examples throughout. The text features a broad array of applications, including all engineering disciplines. The revision retains the successful pedagogy of the prior editions. Chapra and Canale's unique approach opens each part of the text with sections called Motivation, Mathematical Background, and Orientation, preparing the student for what is to come in a motivating and engaging manner. Each part closes with an Epilogue containing sections called Trade-Offs, Important Relationships and Formulas, and Advanced Methods and Additional References. Much more than a summary, the Epilogue deepens understanding of what has been learned and provides a peek into more advanced methods. Approximately 80% of the end-of-chapter problems are revised or new to this edition. The expanded breadth of engineering disciplines covered is especially evident in the problems, which now cover such areas as biotechnology and biomedical engineering. Users will find use of software packages, specifically MATLAB and Excel with VBA. This includes material on developing MATLAB m-files and VBA macros.

Applied Numerical Methods with Python for Engineers and Scientists

"When we first learned to use computers as students in the 1960s, Fortran was the language of choice for most engineering and scientific computations. Over the ensuing half century, numerous other languages have proven useful for implementing the numerical calculations that are so valuable to our research and teaching. Along with a succession of improved Fortran versions, other languages such as Algol, Basic, Pascal, and C/C++ have all found their way into our computational toolbox. The basic content, organization, and pedagogy of this book is like our other numerical methods textbooks. In particular, a conversational writing style is intentionally maintained in order to make the book easier to read. This book tries to speak directly to the reader and is designed in part to be a tool for self-teaching. As such, we also believe it will have value outside the classroom for professionals desiring to gain proficiency in both numerical methods and Python"--

Loose Leaf for Applied Numerical Methods with MATLAB for Engineers and Scientists

Applied Numerical Methods with MATLAB is written for students who want to learn and apply numerical methods in order to solve problems in engineering and science. As such, the methods are motivated by problems rather than by mathematics. That said, sufficient theory is provided so that students come away with insight into the techniques and their shortcomings. McGraw-Hill Education's Connect, is also available as an optional, add on item. Connect is the only integrated learning system that empowers students by continuously adapting to deliver precisely what they need, when they need it, how they need it, so that class time is more effective. Connect allows the professor to assign homework, quizzes, and tests easily and automatically grades and records the scores of the student's work. Problems are randomized to prevent sharing of answers an may also have a "multi-step solution" which helps move the students' learning along if they experience difficulty.
