Controlling the level of noise in electrical motors is critical to overall system performance. However, predicting noise of an electrical motor is more difficult and less accurate than for other characteristics such as torque-speed. Recent advances have produced powerful computational methods for noise prediction, and Noise of Polyphase Electric Motors is the first book to collect these advances in a single source. It is also the first to include noise prediction for permanent magnet (PM) synchronous motors. Complete coverage of all aspects of electromagnetic, structural, and vibro-acoustic noise makes this a uniquely comprehensive reference. The authors begin with the basic principles of noise generation and radiation, magnetic field and radial forces, torque pulsations, acoustic calculations, as well as noise and vibration of mechanical and acoustic origin. Moving to applications, the book examines in detail stator system vibration analysis including the use of finite element method (FEM) modal analysis; FEM for radial pressure and structural modeling; boundary element methods (BEM) for acoustic radiation; statistical energy analysis (SEA); instrumentation including technologies, procedures, and standards; and both passive and active methods for control of noise and vibration. Noise of Polyphase Electric Motors gathers the fundamental concepts along with all of the analytical, numerical, and statistical methods into a unified reference. It supplies all of the tools necessary to improve the noise performance of electrical motors at the design stage.

POWER GRID RESILIENCE AGAINST NATURAL DISASTERS How to protect our power grids in the face of extreme weather events The field of structural and operational resilience of power systems, particularly against natural disasters, is of obvious importance in light of climate change and the accompanying increase in hurricanes, wildfires, tornados, frigid temperatures, and more. Addressing these vulnerabilities in service is a matter of increasing diligence for the electric power industry, and as such, targeted studies and advanced technologies are being developed to help address these issues generally--whether they be from the threat of cyber-attacks or of natural disasters. Power Grid Resilience against Natural Disasters provides, for the first time, a comprehensive and systematic introduction to resilience-enhancing planning and operation strategies of power grids against extreme events. It addresses, in detail, the three necessary steps to ensure power grid success: the preparedness prior to natural disasters, the response as natural disasters unfold, and the recovery after the event. Crucially, the authors put forward state-of-the-art methods towards improving today's practices in managing these three arenas. Power Grid Resilience against Natural Disasters readers will also find: <ul> <li>Data, tables, and illustrations to supplement and clarify the points put forward in each chapter</li> <li>Case studies on realistic power systems and industry standards and practices related to the topics covered</li> <li>Potential to be a supplementary text in advanced level power engineering courses</li> </ul> Power Grid Resilience against Natural Disasters will be of interest to specialists and engineers, as well as planners and operators from industry. It can also be a useful resource for senior undergraduate students, postgraduate students, researchers, and research libraries. More, it will appeal to all readers with a strong background in power system analysis, operation and control, optimization methods, the Markov decision process, and probability and statistics.

A Quirin Pinyin Updated Editions (QPUE) Alfred Forke's unsurpassed translation and annotation of the Lunheng &#35542;&#34913; has been revised and updated to reflect the original order of The Complete Essays of Wang Chong &#29579;&#20805;, 27-ca. 97. as handed down from the end of the second century. This Quirin Press edition offers the following features: - Older Wade-Giles transliteration fully updated and revised to Pinyin. - Carefully typeset and proofed for typographical errors and inconsistencies. - Updated index. - Designed to be a pleasure to hold & easy on the reading eye. Keywords: Philosophy- Chinese. Wang, Chong &#29579;&#20805;, 27-ca. 97. Literary & Philosophical Essays Skepticism Materialist philosophy. Considered one of the greatest thinkers of the Han Dynasty (202 BCE - 220 CE) Wang Chong's keen insights used Daoist naturalism and spontaneity to attack popular superstitions of the day and brought about a revival of Daoist philosophy or Neo-Daoism in the centuries following his death in ca. 97 CE. Variously described as one of China's earliest skeptics and materialist philosophers he was above all: ... an iconoclast driven with a remarkable spirit of scientific skepticism motivated by the single maxim to "Hate fictions and falsehoods" (Lunheng Ch. 61) Feng Youlan (Fung Yu-lan) A Short History of Chinese Philosophy (1960) Apart from the eclectic range of subjects treated, the Lunheng is also unique for its easy style that deliberately avoided the allusive language of the Literati of the day and makes it as readable today as it was for the general reader nearly 2,000 years ago. Given that Forke originally translated only the key philosophical essays in 1907 before being entreated to translate the remaining essays in 1911, this Quirin Press edition of The Complete Essays of Wang Chong brings back the original order of the Lunheng's eighty-five essays as they were handed down from the end of the second century. Forke's pioneering work not only brought Wang Chong's immense repertorium of knowledge to the attention of Western scholars for the first time, it also re-kindled interest in China where the Lunheng-probably because of its iconoclastic approach- had been forgotten for centuries. This long-awaited Quirin Press edition offers Forke's unsurpassed translation and annotation of the Lunheng in a three-volume set after a very careful updating and revision process that will set a new standard for years to come.
