Wavelets
Second Edition
Michael Weeks, PhD,
Georgia State University
Designed for engineering and computer science
students as well as practicing engineers and
scientists, this text emphasizes the practical
applications of signal processing. Over 100
MATLAB examples and wavelet techniques
provide the latest applications of DSP, including
image processing, games, filters, transforms,
networking, parallel processing, and sound.
The book also provides the mathematical
processes and techniques needed to ensure an
understanding of DSP theory. Beginning with an
introduction to MATLAB programming, it moves
through filters, sinusoids, sampling, the Fourier
transform, the z-transform and other key topics.

Mechatronics
G. Hegde, PhD
Mechatronics integrates key systems from
mechanical, electrical, electronic, and computer
engineering to manufacture industrial
products, processes, and operations. Intended
as a textbook for courses in mechatronics
or as an up-to-date reference for practicing
engineers, Mechatronics uses extensive in-text,
solved examples and computer simulations to
cover the basic concepts. This book contains
information from both the theoretical and
application perspectives related to mechatronic
systems.
Robotics
Appin Knowledge Solutions
Applied and
Computational
Fluid Mechanics
Scott Post, PhD, Bradley University
Designed for the fluid mechanics course for
mechanical engineers or as a reference for
professional engineers, this up to date text
uses computer algorithms and applications
to solve modern problems related to fluid
flow, aerodynamics, and thermodynamics.
Algorithms for numerical solutions of fluid
problems (which can be implemented in
programming environments such as MATLAB)
will be used throughout the book. Also
included is an introduction to Computational
Fluid Dynamics, a well-established method
in the design of heat transfer and cooling
applications. A DVD accompanies the book
with source code, MATLAB files, third-party
simulations, color figures, and other resources.
This text guides readers through the fundamental, as well as the advanced
concepts, of the C programming language as it applies to solving engineering
and scientific problems. Ideal for readers with no prior programming
experience, this text provides numerous sample problems and their solutions
in the areas of mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, heat transfer,
fluid mechanics, physics, chemistry, and more. Readers will be writing their
own code upon completion of Chapter 2.

Unlike many AutoCAD competitors, this book covers only the basics and
uses “mixed units”- inches, meters, feet, kilometers, etc., to illustrate the
myriad drawing and editing tools for this popular application. AutoCAD
2010 Essentials includes 21 “workshops,” that complete small projects -
from concept through actual plotting. Solving all of the workshops will
simulate the creation of a “real life” project from beginning to end, without
overlooking any of the basic commands and functions in AutoCAD 2010.
Suitable for Level 1 and Level 2 AutoCAD courses, this Comprehensive Edition
includes all the same information as the Essentials Edition plus an added
seven chapters for more in depth coverage of AutoCAD 2010. Included are
94 “workshops,” that complete small projects –from concept through actual
plotting. The accompanying DVD features the AutoCAD 2010 trial software,
drawings, plots, 4-color figures, and all the exercises from the book.
