This new edition is intended for a one semester course in optics for juniors and seniors in science and engineering. It uses scripts from Maple, MathCad, Mathematica, and MATLAB to provide a simulated laboratory where students can learn by exploration and discovery instead of passive absorption. The text covers all the standard topics of a traditional optics course. It contains step by step derivations of all basic formulas in geometrical, wave and Fourier optics. The threefold arrangement of text, applications, and files makes the book suitable for "self-learning" by scientists or engineers who would like to refresh their knowledge of optics.

This book gives a brief history of the development of Alloy 625 and a detailed account of its physical, mechanical, and corrosion properties. It also addresses different types of microstructural changes the Alloy 625 undergoes at intermediate temperatures; provides details of properties deterioration due to such microstructural changes; assesses the alloy damage during the in-service inspection of plants; and provides criteria for the damage evaluation for various destructive and non-destructive testing. It combines the industrial data and literature together in one place for damage assessment of service exposed Alloy 625 components. This book serves as a guide to practicing engineers in the industry interested in the use of Alloy 625 and in academia for students pursuing advanced courses in materials science. Alloy 625 is a versatile nickel-chromium-molybdenum alloy known for its unique combination of high strength, excellent fabricability and weldability, and outstanding corrosion resistance.
