Leader's guide to lateral thinking skills

Knowledge management is an end unto itself. This is one of the 10 myths of lateral thinking in this book. In fact, while creating new knowledge, organizing it so others can use it, and passing it on to succeeding generations is a defining human trait, business organizations should use knowledge management to build market value and competitive strength.

Encyclopedia of leadership: a practical guide

In particular, a book of this nature leans heavily on the ideas of the people acknowledged at the beginning of each leadership tool. In an age of quick fixes, fads, and techniques, leaders need a strong understanding of the basics of leadership techniques. Especially in a book like this, focused on brief descriptions of leadership tools, you need to understand the foundations so you don’t build a “house of fads.” The tools in this section provide some underpinnings for a successful leadership role.

Power System (The Electric Power Engineering)

Updated with the latest developments and advances, the second edition of The Electric Power Engineering Handbook has grown so much that it is now presented as a set of five books. Now this authoritative coverage is available in easily digestible portions that are tightly focused and conveniently sized. The fourth installment, Power Systems clearly outlines power system analysis and simulation, transients, planning, reliability, and power electronic components. In addition to extensive updates, new chapters on computational methods and flexible AC transmission system (FACTS) components along with extensive revisions to the planning and reliability section reflect the latest trends in the field.

Generators and electric power industry

Variable Speed Generators

Part of the two-volume Electric Generators Handbook, Variable Speed Generators provides a comprehensive reference for the topologies, modeling, control, design, and testing of standard and emerging variable speed generator systems. The first five chapters examine wound rotor induction generators for operation in stand-alone and power grid modes and cage rotor induction generators. The next four chapters target the automotive and aircraft industries, examining emerging systems for integrated starter alternators. The final chapters deal with PM generator systems and linear-motion alternators (LMAs). Case studies, digital simulations, and test results are provided throughout the book.

Uncertainty in the Electric Power industry

In this context, the present book aims at an integrative view on the decision problems that power companies have to tackle. The central challenge is thereby the optimization of generation and trading portfolios under uncertainty - and by purpose this is also a central chapter in the book. It provides a theoretically justified alternative going beyond a simplistic combination of Value-at-Risk and Profit-at-Risk measures. The primary intention of this book is not to provide an in-depth discussion of the regulatory challenges at hand after more than one decade of electricity market deregulation around the world – but analyzing the key decision problems of players in the industry certainly is a useful and necessary first step when aiming at the design of efficient and robust electric power markets.

Dielectrics in Electric Fields

This book explains electric fields on dielectric materials and discovering their distinctive behavior, principles of physics and engineering and recent literature on dielectrics. Theorems on electrostatics are included as an introduction to the study of the influence of electric fields on dielectric materials. The solution of Laplace's equation to find the electric field within and without dielectric combinations yield expressions which help to develop the various dielectric theories discussed in subsequent chapters. The band theory of solids is discussed briefly to assist in understanding the electronic structure of dielectrics and a fundamental knowledge of this topic is essential to understand the conduction and breakdown in dielectrics. The energy distribution of
charged particles is one of the most basic aspects that are required for a proper
understanding of structure of the condensed phase and electrical discharges in gases.
