he concept of the IITs was first introduced in a report in the year 1945 by Sh. N.M. Sircar,
then member of Education on Vicerorys Executive Council. Following his
recommendations, the first Indian Institute of Technology was established in the year 1950
in Kharagpur. The Government having accepted these recommendations of the Sircar
Committee decided to establish more Institutes of Technology with the assistance of friendly
countries who were prepared to help. The first offer of help came from USSR who agreed to
collaborate in the establishment of an Institute through UNESCO at Bombay.
This was followed by the Institutes of Technology at Madras, Kanpur and Delhi with collaborations
with West Germany, USA and UK respectively. Indian Institute of Technology, Guwahati was
established in 1995 and the University of Roorkee was converted into an IIT in 2001.
The Indian Institute of Technology ('IITs) are a group of autonomous public engineering institutes
of higher education. IITs have a special status as Institutes of National Importance. The IIT-JEE
and GATE are important factor behind the success of IITs, as it enables the IITs to accept only a
select group of meritorious students. This combination of success factors has led to the concept
of the IIT Brand. Other factors that have contributed to the success of IITs are stringent faculty
recruitment procedures and industry collaboration. The procedure for selection of faculty in IITs is
stricter as compared to other colleges offering similar degrees.
The IIT brand was reaffirmed when the United States House of Representatives passed a
resolution honouring Indian Americans and especially graduates of IIT for their contributions to
the American society. Similarly, China also recognised the value of IITs and planned to replicate

requirement of computational resources in terms of computing power and
the availability of software to confront challenging optimization problems.
These are no longer relevant in this day and age as the world has seen an explosive growth in both computing power and optimization methods and tools.
Hence, the stage is set for the engineer to seek the optimum in thermal sciences, instead of just being content with having a design that "works".
Keeping this in mind, this new text proposes to introduce the general principles involved in system design and optimization as applicable to thermal systems,
followed by the methods to accomplish them. The book will feature several surprising examples and will follow a conversational style. The book will, for the first
time, introduce contemporary techniques like Genetic Algorithms, Simulated Annealing, ANN and Bayesian Inference in the context of optimization of thermal
systems. There is a separate chapter devoted to inverse problems in thermal systems, which will be another unique feature in the textbook. Examples and
problems in every chapter will clarify the concepts and methods presented and end-of-chapter problems will supplement the material presented and enhance
the learning process.

This book aims to present a balanced treatment of theory, experiment and computation necessary for applied impact mechanics. This text has sufficient
content to be offered for a single semester course; or, can be used as a supplementary reference for other courses on engineering design and analysis such as
advanced mechanics of solids, structural dynamics, earthquake engineering, bio-mechanics, impact and vibration engineering, etc. Thus, this book develops
pertinent mechanics of materials of impact processes from the viewpoints of authors from academic, defence research and development organizations with a
cumulative international teaching and research experience of over seventy five years. The authors hope that this effort will broaden the horizons of technical
education in general and industrial impact engineering design and analysis in particular.

(computational fluid dynamics) models is a fast emerging avenue for cost-effective design of combustion systems that helps to validate new design
ideasandconcepts than previously conducted through laborious experimentation. Another important emerging area in combustion engineering is the design
of control systems for combustion processes. These techniques have helped improve the system efficiency, reduce emissions and prevent catastrophic

About the Book: Mass Transfer is an exciting subject and its principles are widely applied in
many interdisciplinary applications. The focus of this book is to concisely explain the mass
transfer principles and demonstrate their role in illustrative problems and practical
applications. This textbook aims to address the academic requirements of chemical
engineering undergraduate students who typically study two mass transfer courses in their
second and third years. Students may often find it difficult to relate the mass transfer
principles to new situations they encounter when tackling design problems, summer
internship assignments, design competitions and final year projects. It is hoped that after
reading this book, the students are equipped with the knowledge of mass transfer principles,
analytical way of thinking and process simulation skills which will provide them with the
confidence to tackle new and open ended problems.

About the Book: The phenomenon of surface waves occurs on all water bodies and more
predominantly on seas & oceans. The physics of the ocean waves was well understood by
considering regular wave forms, which later extended to unidirectional waves. By the early
80s, the focus shifted to the representation of ocean waves close to its reality in the ocean, by
considering its propagation from different directions. Since then, there has been a
tremendous progress in numerical and physical modelling of coastal and offshore structures
in waves. This calls for a clear understanding of the phenomena of wave generation,
propagation, deformation and its effects on marine structures.

Thermodynamics
Most of the books on thermodynamics make extensive use of differentials to introduce concepts, definitions and even laws and carry out derivations using
them. The misunderstanding that can arise as a result of such an approach has been recently pointed out by this author [5] in an article. In this book, the
implicit function theorem and chain rule are used to derive the basic relations of chemical engineering thermodynamics. This brings out clearly the
transformation of variables involved and also the underlying invertibility conditions where appropriate. I believe that this approach will give the student secure
tools to derive relations as and when required and not be unduly dependent on one particular book with its notations.
The importance of fundamental relations and the corresponding general equations are emphasized throughout. Their central importance in the definition of
ideal substances and in developing a unified treatment of the phase rule is brought out following the work of Gibbs. These aspects are elaborated in the book
following the author's own work on the foundations of thermodynamics in recent years [6-7].

The fundamental flaws in Maxwell's equal area rule, that is the workhorse of all phase equilibrium calculations involving EoS, are pointed out and a corrected
treatment following the idea of Kahl [4] is presented. The implications of this correction for phase equilibrium calculations involving pure components as well as
mixtures are discussed. The author expects these ideas will provide a paradigm shift in the way phase equilibrium calculations are approached and equations
of state are evaluated for their predictive capabilities. Here again, the author's own research, both completed [8] and ongoing, provides the basis for the way
these ideas are presented.

the depth of treatment. While most of these books are excellent resources
Rest of the World: Wiley
for the researchers in specified areas, there is a strong need for books
appropriate for presenting the subject at the undergraduate or postgraduate
levels in most Universities. The need for such a book to serve as a textbook at the level of the bachelors and masters courses was felt by the authors while
teaching courses on nonlinear optics to students of both science and engineering during the past two decades. This book is a humble attempt in this direction
and presents the subject at college level where a one-semester course covering the essentials can effectively be designed based on this. Care has been taken
to include rigorously features such as: elucidation of relevant basic principles of Physics clear exposition of the ideas involved at an appropriate level
coverage of the physical mechanisms of nonlinearity update on physical mechanisms and emerging photonic materials.
The topics covered include quantum mechanics of nonlinear interaction of matter and radiation, detailed formalism and phenomenology of nonlinear wave
mixing processes, optical phase conjugation and applications, self-focusing and self-phase modulation and their role in pulse modification, nonlinear

Remarks in the text supply additional information on the topics under discussion.
Exercises are interspersed within the text for making the students attempt them while the lectures are in progress.
Large number of problems at the end of each chapter are meant as home-assignments.
The student friendly approach of the exposition of the book would definitely be of great use not only for students, but also for the teachers of the course.

work at his best without worrying about the fruits of the labour. Often, true success in research can be truly felt only we are in the autumn of
our lives or after we pass away Time is the highest court to decide on this matter! The ultimate goal of any researcher is to get that immortal
status Becoming ananta infinite.
Drawing from contemporary theories on intelligence, hard work, flow, creativity and motivation and by looking at lessons from history
combined with the author's own research experience at IIT Madras, this book attempts to look at the spirit behind the pursuit of research,
particularly scientific research and ways to make this a real joy. The book is not intended to be a text or treatise on research methodology.
While the book is intended for all researchers, it is specially targeted at motivating budding researchers and those in the early years of their
research careers.
