9781606503713 English 1606503715 Aerospace craft are the only vehicles having motion in 3D space with intensive dynamics, making it necessary to control such vehicles in 6D motion (linear and angular). Navigating with these spatial constraints, in all kinds of weather and environments requires complex and highly reliable controls and systems. This new book explains the latest in electronic navigation for aerospace vehicles, including the latest in use of satellite communications and GPS navigation. It offers a particular focus on different kinds of radio-navigation and guidance systems for aeronautical and space vehicles that may be used for motion control, together with other aerospace sensors (described in the MP book Aerospace Sensors) . Aerospace engineers in both design and research will find this book to be an invaluable, comprehensive introduction to the very latest technologies in motion control for all types of aerospace vehicles, from aircraft, to unmanned aerospace vehicles, to missiles, and to spacecraft. Highlights include coverage of * Radio Systems for Long-Range Navigation and Short-Range navigation * Radio-based Technical Landing systems * Satellite Navigation Systems * Map-matching systems * Correlated-external Systems and Sensors * Homing Devices * Inertial Navigation Systems, using gyroscope and accelerometer integration, Chemical sensors are integral to the automation of myriad industrial processes and everyday monitoring of such activities as public safety, engine performance, medical therapeutics, and many more. This 5 volume reference work covering simulation and modeling will serve as the perfect complement to Momentum Press's 6 volume reference works 'Chemical Sensors: Fundamentals of Sensing Materials' and 'Chemical Sensors: Comprehensive Sensor Technologies', which present detailed information related to materials, technologies, construction and application of various devices for chemical sensing. This 5 volume comprehensive reference work analyzes approaches used for computer simulation and modeling in various fields of chemical sensing and discusses various phenomena important for chemical sensing such as bulk and surface diffusion, adsorption, surface reactions, sintering, conductivity, mass transport, interphase interactions, etc. In this work it will be shown that theoretical modeling and simulation of the processes, being a basic for chemical sensors operation, could provide considerable progress in choosing both optimal materials and optimal configurations of sensing elements for using in chemical sensors. Each simulation and modeling volume in the present series reviews modeling principles and approaches peculiar to specific groups of materials and devices applied for chemical sensing. Volume 3: Solid State Devices covers phenomenological and molecular modelling of processes which control sensing characteristics and parameters of various solid state chemical sensors including surface acoustic wave, MIS, microcantilever, thermoelectric-based devices and sensor array aimed for electronic nose design. Modeling of nanomaterials and nanosystems promising for solid state chemical sensors design is analyzed as well.
