A textbook for undergraduate students of physics and applied physics. It includes thorough coverage of optics, mechanics, relativistic mechanics, lasers, optical fibres and holography. The text is presented in an easy to understand manner to help students contextualise the subject. A large number of solved numericals are included, as are exercises and unsolved numericals at the end of each chapter.

Over the years there has been growing interest among the scientific community in investigating sleep and how it affects the memory and other brain functions. It is now well established that sleep helps in memory consolidation and induction of neural plasticity, and that short-term deprivation of either total sleep or rapid eye movement sleep alone can induce memory deficits very quickly. Quantitative and qualitative changes in sleep architectu...

These topics are presented in easy to understand language.

The major challenges of the 21st century faced by human beings are how to achieve water security, food security, energy security and environmental security. Owing to enhanced natural/anthropogenic disasters worldwide, these challenges become much more complicated and daunting especially for developing countries. Therefore, it is important to highlight the risk of different disasters as well as the modern tools and techniques for minimizing dis...

This text contains perspectives on areas in optoelectronics, covering topics of recent importance as well as topics with high potential for development in the future. The write-up for each topic discusses the most recent developments in the field and contains a tutorial section for students.

Device testing represents the single largest manufacturing expense in the semiconductor industry, costing over $40 billion a year. The most comprehensive and wide-ranging book of its kind, Testing of Digital Systems covers everything you need to know about this vitally important subject. Starting right from the basics, the authors take the reader through every key area, including detailed treatment of the latest techniques such as system-on-a-...

The seventh in the series on Land Reforms in India, this volume on Madhya Pradesh takes a close and critical look at the land reforms legislation and implementation, as well as the issues of equity relating to non-land resources in rural areas.

Parallel processing has proven its significant role in various large scale scientific and engineering areas including weather forecasting, air traffic control, petroleum exploration, bio-medical, nuclear energy and defence. Very fast computations of a massive volume of data are an urgent need to support all such real time and real life applications. The computations involved in such applications usually follow some numeric and non-numeric algo...

This book prescribed various low computation based symmetric encryption techniques which has major relevance in terms of security in modern day's utilities. Starting from introductory definitions, six symmetric techniques RCA, RKR, RSKA, CAOPB, RMOPB and CRKRTAB, their analysis and usages are described. Five are cyclic and rest is cascaded in nature. Various parametric tests such as Chi Square, frequency distribution are applied and analyzed a...

This cross-sectoral (urban, water and sanitation, transport, social development) handbook summarizes good practice and the current state-of-the-art in mainstreaming resilience into World Bank investments, including checklists and templates for task teams, case studies from projects highlighting good and bad practice, and operational tools and datasets to support the mainstreaming process.

Due to its extensive applications in stealth technology, much of the research effort in radar absorbing materials (RAM) has remained classified. As is the wont with classified topics, it has resulted in much awe and unfounded speculation. The aim of this book is to demystify this topic. The book in hand is concise but complete in itself. The attention of the readers is first drawn towards the historical evolution of RAM to emphasize that the e...

Thermo-mechanical simulation is a very effective tool to understand the combined effect of heat and deformation on resulting microstructure and properties of steel and other material. Leading experts worldwide engaged in this important area of research have generated a plethora of valuable information. This compendium showcases some of the recent advances made in this vibrant field.

Nanoelectronic Circuit Design Edited by: Niraj K. Jha Deming Chen This book is about large-scale electronic circuits design driven by nanotechnology, where nanotechnology is broadly defined as building circuits using nanoscale devices that are either implemented with nanomaterials (e.g., nanowires, nanotubes or graphene) or following an unconventional method (e.g., FinFETs, quantum dots or resonant tunneling diodes). These nanoscale dev...

Visceral leishmaniasis (VL), (also known as black fever or Kala-azar) is a life-threatening disease first reported from the Indian subcontinent. VL ranks as the world's second largest parasitic disease killer and is a neglected tropical disease. Most of those infected by this life-threatening disease are uneducated daily wagers working to support their families, and vectors easily disseminate the disease to their neighbors. Owing to recent inv...
