Annotation This two-volume set--the proceedings of the February 2002 conference--addresses the complicated inter-related nature of the energy industry, especially in view of the events of the past year (i.e. power shortages in California, higher fuel costs, the rapidly falling North American rig count, environmental security considerations, and the reassessment in values as a result of September 11). In Volume I, 67 contributions cover combustion and alternative energy, composite materials design and analysis, computers in engineering, drilling, environmental engineering, and manufacturing and services. Volume II (62 contributions) discuss offshore technology, plant engineering and reliability, pipeline, production, structural dynamics and vibrations, and tribology/design methodology. There is no subject index. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com).
