| A Practical Guide to Geostatistical Mapping | |
| Download this free engineering eBook: "A Practical Guide to Geostatistical Mapping" by Tomislav Hengl in pdf format. A practical guide to geostatistical mapping using R+gstat/geoR, SAGA GIS and Google Earth combo of software packages. Includes seven diverse data analysis exercises. Materials presented in this book have been used for the five-day advanced training course "GEOSTAT: spatio-temporal data analysis with R+SAGA+Google Earth", that is periodically organized by the author and collaborators. |  |
| Kinetics for Bioscientist | |
| Download free eBook: "Kinetics for Bioscientist" by Peter Klappa in pdf format. This book starts off by discussing the basics of kinetics, using everyday examples. It then moves on to describing kinetics in mathematical terms. Special chapters in this book are dedicated to cases relevant for Bioscientists, e.g. zero, first and second order kinetics. In the last part of the book, the focus is on more complex applications of kinetics, e.g. steady-state reactions and the kinetics of equilibria. An important aspect is to provide relevant examples and model calculations. Every theoretical approach is underpinned by several model calculations of real-life examples. |  |
| Fundamentals of Reaction Engineering | |
| Download free eBook: "Fundamentals of Reaction Engineering" by Rafael Kandiyoti in pdf format. This is an introductory text covering the basic elements of reactor design. The focus is on simple flow patterns. Material and energy balances have been derived for continuous stirred tank reactors (perfect mixing) and tubular flow reactors, assuming plug flow. Non-ideal flow is briefly discussed. The important case of exothermic-reversible reactions has been discussed in the context of staged reactors, with interstage or cold-shot cooling. The analysis of heat and mass transfer to/from catalyst pellets in fixed bed catalytic reactors (FBCR) has been introduced, emphasizing the formulation of global reaction rate expressions. Different ways of modelling FBCRs has been described. |  |
