Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Practical Handbook on Spectral Analysis focuses on visual and photographic methods of spectral analysis. The book aims to present the problems on the methods used in carrying out spectral analysis of materials encountered in practice in industrial laboratories. The handbook first offers information on light sources for spectral analysis and visual methods of spectral analysis. Discussions focus on alternating current arcs, spark generators, direct current arcs, essentials of visual methods of spectral analysis, and preparation of samples and electrodes for carrying out the analysis. The text then takes a look at the photographic methods of spectral analysis, as well as equipment for the photographic recording of spectra, properties and treatment of photographic materials, and principles of quantitative spectral analysis. The publication ponders on procedures for the spectrographic quantitative analysis of metals and alloys and methods of spectral analysis of powders and solutions. Topics include development of procedures for quantitative spectral analysis; obtaining standards and preparing specimens for analysis; and analysis of copper-base alloys, cast irons, high-alloy steels, and aluminum-base alloys. The manuscript also takes a look at the setting up of a spectral analysis laboratory. The handbook is a dependable reference for readers interested in the visual and photographic methods of spectral analysis.

Download or read book A Practical Guide to Social Interaction Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders written by Michelle O'Reilly and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-11-16 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book introduces a novel approach for examining language and communication in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) - discourse and conversation analysis. The authors offer a set of very different perspectives on these complex issues than are typically presented in psychological and clinical work. Emerging from a range of social scientific fields, discourse and conversation analysis involve fine-grained qualitative analysis of naturally-occurring, rather than laboratory-based, interaction, enabling broad applications. Presented in two parts, this innovative volume first provides a set of pedagogical chapters to develop the reader's knowledge and skills in using these approaches, before moving to showcase the use of discursive methods through a range of original contributions from world-leading scholars, drawn from a range of disciplines including sociology, academic and clinical psychology, speech and language therapy, critical disability studies and social theory, and medicine and psychiatry.

Book excerpt: Research Methods: A Practical Guide for Students and Researchers is a practical guide on how to conduct research systematically and professionally. The book begins by distinguishing between causal and interpretive sciences. It then guides the reader on how to formulate the research question, review the literature, develop the hypothesis or framework, select a suitable research methodology, and analyze both quantitative and qualitative data.The book uses classic examples as exemplars. It also uses many examples from different disciplines and sectors to demonstrate and showcase the inter-connections and wider applications of research tools.The book emphasizes integration. It does not merely provide a smorgasbord of research designs, data collection methods, and ways to analyze data. Instead, it shows how one could formulate research strategies given the outcomes the researchers are required or tasked to deliver.The revised edition includes three new chapters on time series (including spatial models), machine learning, and meta-analysis. In addition, existing chapters have been expanded to include more examples, digital research, and new material.

This book was released on 2023-11-23 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a theoretical background to X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and a practical guide to the analysis of the XPS spectra using the RxpsG software, a powerful tool for XPS analysis. Although there are several publications and books illustrating the theory behind XPS and the origin of the spectral feature, this book provides an additional practical introduction to the use of RxpsG. It illustrates how to use the RxpsG software to perform specific key operations, with figures and examples which readers can reproduce themselves. The book contains a list of theoretical sections explaining the appearance of the various spectral features (core‐lines, Auger components, valence bands, loss features, etc.). They are accompanied by practical steps, so readers can learn how to analyze specific spectral features using the various functions of the RxpsG software. This book is a useful guide for researchers in physics, chemistry, and material science who are looking to begin using XPS, in addition to experienced researchers who want to learn how to use RxpsG. In the digital format, the spectral data and step-by-step indications are provided to reproduce the examples given in the textbook. RxpsG is a free software for the spectral analysis. Readers can find the installation information and download the package from https://github.com/GSperanza/ website. RxpsG was developed mainly by Giorgio Speranza with the help of his colleague dr. Roberto Canteri working at Fondazione Bruno Kessler. Key Features: Simplifies the use of RxpsG, how it works, and its applications. Demonstrates RxpsG using a reproduction of the graphical interface of RxpsG, showing the steps needed to perform a specific task and the effect on the XPS spectra. Accessible to readers without any prior experience using the RxpsG software. Giorgio Speranza is Senior Researcher at Fondazione Bruno Kessler – Trento Italy, Associate Member of the Italian National Council of Research, and Associate Member of the Department of Industrial Engineering at the University of Trento, Italy.
