Product Description
A resource for all engineers in all disciplines.The Engineering Handbook CRCnetBASE provides encyclopedic coverage of all areas of engineering. Designed for the professional engineer practicing in any of the disciplines comprising the field of engineering, The Engineering Handbook CRCnetBASE is comprehensive, practical, and fully searchable, allowing quick and easy access to information in areas within, and outside, the reader's area of specialization. This CD-ROM adds state-of-the-art electronic features to its superior contents. It provides full Boolean and proximity searching, search history, extensive support for annotation with bookmarking, and user-defined hyperlinking. It contains a journal feature to record and replay varied pathways through the contents. An expandable table of contents provides instant access to the text, tables, and illustrations. With this CD-ROM, civil engineers will find information about electronics; electronic engineers can learn the fundamentals of aerospace; aerospace engineers can read about dynamics and vibrations. Even project management and economics are included on this CD-ROM! The Engineering Handbook CRCnetBASE contains everything the practicing engineer needs, including definitions of engineering terms, solutions to common problems, rules-of-thumb, tables and equations, and more. All information in the published handbook is easy to find on the user-friendly CD-ROM. Links within the text lead to related topics so you can fully explore any subject or just grab the core material you need.Comprehensive sections in The Engineering Handbook CRCnetBASE encompass topics from all engineering disciplines - statics, mechanics of materials, dynamics and vibration, kinematics and mechanisms, structures, fluid mechanics, thermodynamics and heat transfer, separation processes, fuels and energy conversion, kinetics and reaction engineering, geotechnical, transportation, ocean and coastal engineering, environmental systems and management, water resources engineering, linear systems and models, circuits, electronics, digital systems, communications and signal processing, computers, measurement and instrumentation, surveying, control systems, manufacturing, aeronautics and aerospace, safety, engineering economics and management, materials engineering, and mathematics.
Reviews
Summary: Too shallow to be useful
Rating: 2
This handbook is a bunch of articles about several topics in engineering.
The collection is impressive, but every article, per se, is too brief to be useful to anyone.
Summary: An Excellent Engineering Reference
Rating: 5
This huge book contains almost everything the practicing engineer needs, including definitions of engineering terms, solutions to common problems, rules-of-thumb, tables and equations, and references to other engineering sources.
Keep in mind that no matter how big (2800+ pages) an engineering reference could be, there is no way that you will be able to find every single detail in every field of engineering covered in enough depth to write your thesis. You will find the fundamental information, principles, quick calculations methods, illustrations, and diagrams, which will save the industrial practitioner valuable time.
I really believe this book is an excellent engineering reference. I am an Electronic Engineer, but I have been working for the last 16 years as an Instrumentation, Automation and Process Control Engineer for the Oil & Gas Industry. As a result I have been involved with Chemical and Mechanical Engineering issues in a day to day basic. I found this book to be a helpful reference in those fields and also in other very different fields, like engineering economics and management.
I own this book, and for me it was a very good investment.
