Philosophy of Power System Protection and Security
Author: Samir Ibrahim Abood
Publisher: Nova Science Publishers
ISBN: 9781536192537
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 447
Book Description
"Philosophy of power system Protection and Security, Computer-Aided design and Analysis is a textbook that provides an excellent focus on the advanced topics of power system protection and gives exciting analysis methods and covers the important applications in the power systems relaying. Each chapter opens with a historical profile or career talk, followed by an introduction that states the chapter objectives, links the chapter to the previous ones, and then introduces each chapter. All principles are presented in a lucid, logical, step-by-step approach. The authors avoid wordiness and detail overload that could hide concepts and impede understanding as much as possible. In each chapter, the authors present some of the solved examples and applications using a computer program. Toward the end of each chapter, the authors discuss some application aspects of the chapter's concepts using a computer program. In recognition of requirements by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) on integrating computer tools, the use of MATLAB® is encouraged in a student-friendly manner. MATLAB® is introduced and applied gradually throughout the book. Practice problems immediately follow each illustrative example. Students can follow the example step by step to solve the practice problems without flipping pages or looking at the book's answers. These practice problems test students' comprehension and reinforce key concepts before moving on to the next section. The book has more than ten categories and millions of power readers. It can use in more than 400 electrical engineering departments at the top of universities worldwide. Designed for a three-hour semester course on power system protection and security is intended as a textbook for a graduate,senior-level undergraduate student in electrical and computer engineering. The prerequisites for a course based on this book are knowledge of standard mathematics, including calculus and complex numbers. The book is intended as a textbook for a senior-level undergraduate student in electrical and computer engineering departments and appropriate for Graduate Students, Industry Professionals, Researchers, and Academics. The book gives rich information for the industrial engineer and electric control engineer because it contains more details about power network protection and security. The reader will able to model, design, and implement different parts of the power system relaying after he/she finishes reading this book. After finish reading the book, the reader will be able to manage and control the power system parameters, and it will help him in power station work and control centers. The book will assist the researchers in their field of power system track. The student will improve coordination between power demand and generation and use of modern information technology and program"--

The Philosophy of Nature
Author: Brian Ellis
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317489500
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 192
Book Description
In "The Philosophy of Nature," Brian Ellis provides a clear and forthright general summation of, and introduction to, the new essentialist position. Although the theory that the laws of nature are immanent in things, rather than imposed on them from without, is an ancient one, much recent work has been done to revive interest in essentialism and "The Philosophy of Nature" is a distinctive contribution to this lively current debate. Brian Ellis exposes the philosophical and scientific credentials of the prevailing Humean metaphysic as less than compelling and makes the case for new essentialism as an alternative metaphysical perspective in lucid and unambiguous terms. This book develops this alternative metaphysic and considers the consequences for philosophy, and for some other areas of investigation, of working with such a metaphysic. Ellis argues that these consequences are profound and that a new essentialism provides a comprehensive new philosophy of nature for a modern scientific understanding of the world.
