Sommario/riassunto |
|
This book provides a systematic and updated scientific perspective on the physiology of circadian rhythms, the molecular mechanisms of circadian entrainment, the pharmacological features derived from these signaling pathways, and their clinical outcomes. It offers a comprehensive perspective on the chronobiological impact on normal developmental processes, disruptive events that modulate the occurrence of diverse imbalances that sometimes imply disease, and the increasing importance of circadian rhythms in drug delivery. |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
This comprehensive textbook is unique in its design-focused approach to turbomachinery and gas turbines. It offers students and practicing engineers methods for configuring these machines to perform with the highest possible efficiency. Examples and problems are based on the actual design of turbomachinery and turbines. After an introductory chapter that outlines the goals of the book and provides definitions of terms and parts, the book offers a brief review of the basic principles of thermodynamics and efficiency definitions. The rest of the book is devoted to the analysis and design of real turbomachinery configurations and gas turbines, based on a consistent application of thermodynamic theory and a more empirical treatment of fluid dynamics that relies on the extensive use of design charts. Topics include turbine power cycles, diffusion and diffusers, the analysis and design of three-dimensional free-stream flow, and combustion systems and combustion calculations. The second edition updates every chapter, adding material on subjects that include flow correlations, energy transfer in turbomachines, and three-dimensional design. A solutions manual is available for instructors. This new MIT Press edition makes a popular text available again, with corrections and some updates, to a wide audience of students, professors, and |
