A Comprehensive Guide to Seismic Theory and Application
This new text provides comprehensive coverage of exploration seismology and elements of geology pertinent to exploration geology. It is profusely illustrated and has workshops included to aid understanding. The text includes several appendices to explain the math, equations and answers of the selected exercise questions.
The final book of Sanders' three-volume set on turbine steam path, Sanders turns his focus to the details of design consideration for steam turbines. He relays all the information on mechanical design and function needed in evaluating turbine manufacture, maintenance, and operation. This extensive work covers much of the technical material ......
This ready-reference contains valuable insight for the engineer faced with design and manufacture decisions. A continuation of Sanders' two volumes on maintenance and repair, this volume represents the first in a subsequent two volume set on mechanical design and manufacture, completing the remaining portion of his popular seminar. In this volume, ......
The technology...how it operates...and a history of the development of the technology is all here in this introductory handbook to cutting edge microturbine applications. The author directs a microturbine generator testing and assessment program for a major utility, working closely with governmental agencies, industry organizations, and ......
In response to recent security concerns, Dr Seger addresses the real threats to utility systems and provides a step-by-step approach to assessing vulnerabilities and developing and implementing security countermeasures. Included in this book are threat assessment and security checklists, a vulnerability/countermeasure matrix, and sample security ......
International exploration and production is challenging and exciting. Negotiating with governments and understanding the dynamics of their fiscal systems and/or production sharing contracts can mean the difference between success and failure. Long-time industry consultant, negotiator and lecturer, Daniel Johnston, provides an extremely clear and ......
An excellent primer for power plant professionals who have to wear many hats and need a practical explanation of the design and basic operation of conventional steam generating boilers and HRSGs without having to wade through technical material. Buecker uses anecdotes and humor to liven up what would otherwise be considered a dry subject. No other ......
Covers the main types of logs in use today, as well as the more common types of open-hole logs. Contents: Introduction to logging Reading logs Mud logging formation parameters Porosity Resistivity measurements Putting it all together Detailed interpretation Computer-generated & specialty logs.
Fundamentals of Steam Generation Chemistry provides practical information to personnel who are charged with monitoring and controlling water/steam chemistry programs, but who may only have an informal of partial knowledge of the subject. This includes plant engineers, operators, and mechanical and chemical engineering students who very likely may ......
