Impact Dynamics: A Numerical Approach enables safer aerospace and mechanical designs by providing state-of-the-art techniques and methodologies for impact simulation and crashworthiness analysis of critical structural components. It investigates the shock type of dynamic loading situations as a part of mechanical design discussions.

Classical approaches to impact problems rely on purely empirical methods that correlate large amounts of experimental data; this approach, while useful for specific problems, often fails when extrapolating to design conditions outside the tested velocity ranges. In contrast, this book focuses on numerical simulations using current models to explain the underlying physics and demonstrate how this physics-based approach provides better insight into impact events and enables successful extrapolation of test data into new design spaces for handling complex industrial problems.

This book will be useful to aviation safety professionals, researchers, and practicing aerospace and mechanical design engineers.

This popular book covers the “how-to” of the respiratory care of newborns in outline format.  It includes case studies for self-review and is illustrated with high quality radiographic images, figures, tables, and algorithms.  Written and edited by international experts, the Third Edition is a thorough update and remains a convenient source of practical information on respiratory physiology, exam techniques, tips for performing procedures, radiography, ventilation, pain management, transport, and discharge planning.

·Up-to-date clinical information from world experts

·Case studies

·Easy-to-consult outline format

·Condensed information about all of the major mechanical ventilators (e.g., modes, displays, and alarms)

“The extent of coverage, easy readability, superb organization [and] …practical pearls make [this book] worthwhile…simply a great bargain.”  --Journal of Perinatology (review of a previous edition)

The latest edition of this popular book covers the “how-to” of respiratory care of newborns. Chapters from the previous edition have been updated to reflect advances in both equipment and practice, while newer chapters reflect the evolving worldwide approaches to neonatal respiratory failure, such as sustained inflation, optimization of lung volume, and the use of volumetric capnography, aerosol therapy, and management of chylothorax. New additions to the book also include chapters on assessment of large data bases, implementation of quality improvement programs in neonatal respiratory care, chronic ventilation of the baby with non-respiratory failure. The text also features case studies for self-review and is illustrated with high quality radiographic images, figures, tables, and algorithms. 

Written and edited by international experts, the Manual of Neonatal Respiratory Care, Fourth Edition is a thorough update and remains a convenient source of practical information on respiratory physiology, exam techniques, tips for performing procedures, radiography, ventilation, pain management, transport, and discharge planning.
