Описание:

A continuous rise in the consumption of gasoline, diesel, and other petroleum-based fuels will eventually deplete reserves and deteriorate the environment, Alternative Transportation Fuels: Utilisation in Combustion Engines explores the feasibility of using alternative fuels that could pave the way for the sustained operation of the transport sector. It assesses the potential avenues for using different alternative fuels in the transport sector, highlights several types of transport and its effect on the environment, and discusses the conventional and alternative fuels for land transport.

Описание: This book discusses different types of alternative fuels, including biodiesel, alcohol, synthetic fuels, compressed natural gas (CNG) and its blend with hydrogen, HCNG, and provides detailed information on the utilization of these alternative fuels in internal combustion (IC) engines. Further, it presents methods for production of these alternative fuels and explores advanced combustion techniques, such as low-temperature and dual-fuel combustion, using alternative fuels. It includes a chapter on the soot morphology of biodiesel, which focuses on the toxicity. There are also four chapters on hydrogen-fueled engines, which discuss use of hydrogen in IC engines and also provide important information on the methodologies. This book is a valuable resource for researchers and practicing engineers alike.

Описание: Petroleum technology is a discipline that integrates concepts of several fields such as geology, engineering and geophysics; it primarily covers exploration and extraction of crude oils. However, depletion of conventional fuel sources and their extensive use has resulted into deterioration of environment and increased demand for exploration and consumption of alternative fuels. This book traces the availability of alternate fuels and highlights some of the key concepts and applications of these fuels. The topics included in this book on petrophysics, thermodynamics, biofuels are of utmost significance and bound to provide incredible insights to readers. This book includes contributions of experts and scientists which will provide a multidisciplinary perspective into the fields of alternative energy resources and petroleum technology.

Описание:

Accident reconstruction utilizes principles of physics and empirical data to analyze the physical, electronic, video, audio, and testimonial evidence from a crash, to determine how and why the crash occurred, how the crash could have been avoided, or to determine whose description of the crash is most accurate. This process draws together aspects of mathematics, physics, engineering, materials science, human factors, and psychology, and combines analytical models with empirical test data. Different types of crashes produce different types of evidence and call for different analysis methods. Still, the basic philosophical approach of the reconstructionist is the same from crash type to crash type, as are the physical principles that are brought to bear on the analysis. This book covers a basic approach to accident reconstruction, including the underlying physical principles that are used, then details how this approach and the principles are applied when reconstructing motorcycle crashes.

This second edition of Motorcycle Accident Reconstruction presents a thorough, systematic, and scientific overview of the available methods for reconstructing motorcycle crashes. This new edition contains:

• Additional theoretical models, examples, case studies, and test data.
• An updated bibliography incorporating the newest studies in the field.
• Expanded coverage of the braking capabilities of motorcyclists.
• Updated, refined, and expanded discussion of the decelerations of motorcycles sliding on the ground.
• A thoroughly rewritten and expanded discussion of motorcycle impacts with passenger vehicles.
• Updated coefficients of restitution for collisions between motorcycles and cars.
• A new and expanded discussion of using passenger car EDR data in motorcycle accident reconstruction.
• A new section covering recently published research on post-collision frozen speedometer readings on motorcycles.
• A new section on motorcycle interactions with potholes, roadway deterioration, and debris and expanded coverage of motorcycle falls.

This second edition of Motorcycle Accident Reconstruction is a must-have title for accident reconstructionists, forensic engineers, and all interested in understanding why and how motorcycle crashes occur.
