This text for advanced undergraduates and graduates reading applied mathematics, electrical, mechanical, or control engineering, employs block diagram notation to highlight comparable features of linear differential and difference equations, a unique feature found in no other book. The treatment of transform theory (Laplace transforms and z-transforms) encourages readers to think in terms of transfer functions, i.e. algebra rather than calculus. This contrives short-cuts whereby steady-state and transient solutions are determined from simple operations on the transfer functions.- Employs block diagram notation to highlight comparable features of linear differential and difference equations- The treatment of transform theory (Laplace transforms and z-transforms) encourages readers to think in terms of transfer functions, i.e. algebra rather than calculus

This lucid and balanced introduction for first year engineers and applied mathematicians conveys the clear understanding of the fundamentals and applications of calculus, as a prelude to studying more advanced functions. Short and fundamental diagnostic exercises at the end of each chapter test comprehension before moving to new material.- Provides a clear understanding of the fundamentals and applications of calculus, as a prelude to studying more advanced functions- Includes short, useful diagnostic exercises at the end of each chapter

Monographs in Organic Functional Group Analysis, Volume 4: The Determination of Organic Peroxides focuses on the analytical chemistry of organic peroxides. The monograph first offers information on the compositions, properties, and reactions of lipid peroxides, polymers, and petrochemicals. The text then reviews the iodometric methods, including choice of solvents, reaction conditions, and titration with thiosulfate. The ferrous ion methods are also discussed. Considerations include choice of reagents and solvents and titration with titanous, dichromate, and mercurous ions. The book also focuses on titrimetric methods, including arsenious, stannous, and titanous methods, titration with anions, and sulfides and mercaptans. Numerical representations are provided. The text puts emphasis on colorimetric and polarographic methods. Polarographic techniques for peroxides; nature and concentration of peroxides; leuco base of methylene blue; and ferrous ions are described. The book also discusses paper, thin-layer, and gas chromatography. The monograph is an important guide for readers interested in the analytical chemistry of organic peroxides.
