"A first edition of Condition Monitoring of Electrical Machines, written by Tavner and Penman, was published in 1987. The economics of industry have now changed, as a result of the privatisation and deregulation of the energy industry, placing emphasis on the importance of reliable operation of plant, throughout the whole life cycle, regardless of first cost. The availability of advanced electronics and software in powerful instrumentation, computers, and digital signal processors (DSP) has simplified our ability to instrument and analyse machinery. As a result condition monitoring is now being applied to a wider range of systems from fault-tolerant drives of a few hundred watts in the aerospace industry, to machinery of a few hundred megawatts in major capital plant." "In this new book the original authors have been joined by Ran, an expert in power electronics and control, and Sedding, an expert in the monitoring of electrical insulation systems. Together the authors have revised and expanded the earlier book, merging their own experience with that of machine analysts to bring it up to date."--BOOK JACKET.

Written in lucid prose, this text provides students of electrical engineering and practicing electrical design engineers with the properties of electrical steels. Beckley (Cardiff U., UK, consultant to Cogent Power), who has published extensively on the subject, defines the principles behind the actions of electrical steels, their properties, and the history of their development. He then describes manufacturing methods, range of materials, coatings, insulation, effects of punching and core building, high-frequency applications, and testing, among other topics.

If there are two phrases we have come to know very well, they are 'environmental awareness' and 'credit crunch'. The world is looking for ways to decrease the emission of CO2 into the atmosphere, without incurring major costs in doing so. By increasing efficiencies up to about 90 per cent using well-established and mature technologies, cogeneration represents the best option for short-term reductions in CO2 emission levels.

This volume constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 15th International Conference on Engineering Applications of Neural Networks, EANN 2014, held in Sofia, Bulgaria, in September 2014. The 18 revised full papers presented together with 5 short papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 37 submissions. The papers demonstrate a variety of applications of neural networks and other computational intelligence approaches to challenging problems relevant to society and the economy. These include areas such as: environmental engineering, facial expression recognition, classification with parallelization algorithms, control of autonomous unmanned aerial vehicles, intelligent transport, flood forecasting, classification of medical images, renewable energy systems, intrusion detection, fault classification and general engineering.

In future the UK's energy supplies, for both heat and power, will come from much more diverse sources. In many cases this will mean local energy projects serving a local community or even a single house. What technologies are available? Where and at what scale can they be used? How can they work effectively with our existing energy networks? This book explores these power and heat sources, explains the characteristics of each and examines how they can be used.
