Techstreet launches BuildingBlocks utility for industry standards - 11 Dec 2008

The Scientific business of Thomson Reuters has announced that Techstreet (about), a source for online access to industry codes and standards, has launched a new utility called Techstreet Subscriptions BuildingBlocks. The feature allows engineers to pre-purchase documents for the first time from publishers such as the American Society for Testing and Materials, American Society of Mechanical Engineers, American Petroleum Institute, British Standards Institution and the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers.

BuildingBlocks lets Techstreet subscription customers buy standards in advance, in increments of 25, 50, 75 or 100 documents from selected publishers without naming specific titles. Users can immediately download required codes or standards on demand once their BuildingBlocks account is activated.

Techstreet Subscriptions is a Thomson Reuters web-based workflow tool that enables access to a controlled set of industry standards in electronic format. The Web 2.0 interface is projected to be fast and intuitive, with an advanced search and browse functionality, favourites lists, automatic updates, e-mail alerts, real-time usage reports, an announcement board and other administrative features.

To support the role of engineers and applied scientists in leading a new industrial revolution, Knovel is launching a new subject area. Learn More!

SciTech Publishing to publish Fundamentals of Eletromagnetics with MATLAB, second edition - 23 Jan 2007

Publisher SciTech Publishing, http://www.scitechpub.com/US, has announced the publication of the second edition of Fundamentals of Electromagnetics with MATLAB.

Authored by Karl Lonngren, Sava Savov, and Randy Jost, the textbook has been adopted by several prestigious university programmes. Based on adopter and advisory board feedback, the new edition contains separate chapters on electrostatic and magnetostatic Fields. In addition, the chapter on transmission lines has been edited so that it is independent from other chapters. Each substantive text section has at least one corresponding problem. Also, there are worked solutions for instructors.
