A fully updated and revised new edition, providing an authoritative account of our current understanding of radar sea clutter.

Industrial automation is driving the development of robot manipulators in various applications, with much of the research effort focussed on flexible manipulators and their advantages compared to their rigid counterparts. This book reports recent advances and new developments in the analysis and control of these robot manipulators.

Wave and tidal energy engineering has developed strongly in the past decade, with 100MW arrays of full-scale grid-connected wave and tidal devices planned for the next few years. This book provides an electrical engineering perspective on these offshore power stations and their integration to the grid.

This book provides a comprehensive treatment of the subject from both a physical and mathematical perspective and covers a range of topics including modelling, computation of load flow in the transmission grid, stability analysis under both steady-state and disturbed conditions, and appropriate controls to enhance stability.

Radar Micro-Doppler Signatures: Processing and applications concentrates on the processing and application of radar micro-Doppler signatures in real world situations, providing readers with a good working knowledge on a variety of applications of radar micro-Doppler signatures.

Wind Power Integration provides a wide-ranging discussion on all major aspects of wind power integration into electricity supply systems. This second edition has been fully revised and updated to take account of the significant growth in wind power deployment in the past few years.

The Guide to Electrical Maintenance provides guidance on carrying out maintenance activities and using good practice maintenance techniques.

This book addresses the very latest research and development issues in high voltage technology and is intended as a reference source for researchers and students in the field, specifically covering developments throughout the last decade.

This book covers major components of a high voltage system and the different insulating materials applied in equipment, identifying measurable materials suitable for condition assessment, and also analyses insulation fault scenarios that may occur in power equipment.

This book provides the reader with a thorough background in almost every aspect of lightning protection.

An essential guide for engineers who are new to the role of leading a team. Packed with practical information, advice and case studies, this book presents you with the insights to get your team rapidly up to speed and working to their full potential, shows how to problem solve, and keep the team on track through turbulent times.

Features exam information and test practice, as well as handy tips and advice from examiners. This title contains sample papers which are designed to reinforce knowledge and understanding of the IEE Wiring Regulations and to prepare candidates for the online test.

The 3rd edition of Economic Evaluation of Projects in the Electricity Supply Industry takes a broad introductory approach, covering market and environmental issues, financial analysis and evaluation, clean environmental technologies and costs.

This book explains in detail how nuclear power works, its costs, benefits as part of the electricity supply system and examines its record. This book covers the nuclear power debate.

This is the second of a two-volume work covering the electrical principles syllabuses of all of the major examining bodies including the City & Guilds of London Institute's electrical craft courses. It is also suitable for a wide range of other courses, including the first three years of the BTEC electrical series.

This code of practice explains why and how cyber security should be considered throughout a building's lifecycle and explains good practice, focusing on building-related systems and all connections to the wider cyber environment.

Contributors of world-class excellence are brought together in Thermal Power Plant Simulation and Control to illustrate how current areas of research can be applied to power plant operation, leading to enhanced unit performance, asset management andplant competitiveness through intelligent monitoring and control strategies.

Recording the growth of telegraphy over two centuries, this volume depicts the discoveries and ingenuity of those involved, the equipment they designed, and the applications and effects on society. Emphasis is placed on cable-based techniques and wireless transmissions.

This book sets out to provide a clear and concise description of the physical principles of inertial navigation, the associated growth of errors and their compensation.

This second edition deals with the planning and design of modern distribution systems, as opposed to more general aspects of transmission and generation and updates its treatment of computer-based planning and reliability. It also covers the implications of international standards, network information systems and distribution automation.

This revised edition includes all IEC proposed amendments and corrections for the planned 1999 revision of IEC 1131-3, as agreed by the IEC working group. It accurately describes the languages and concepts, and interprets the standard for practical implementation and applications.

This book describes a variety of reasons justifying the use of DC transmission as well as the basic concepts and techniques involved in the AC-DC and DC-AC conversion processes.
