The Knovel Webinar session takes approximately 30-45 minutes. Audience participation is encouraged; your instructor will be availaible to answer questions and perform audience requests.
 
Starting with an overview of the titles, the instructor will move on to relevant 'keyword searching' and build on your knowledge of the most popular search engines.
 
Next, data is brought to life with Knovel's interactive tools – tables, graphs, equation plotting and more.
 
Finally, deep searching via numerical extraction rounds out the program.
 

Search Examples
 
In addition to an overview and instruction on Knovel's features, the webinar also covers a selection of sample searches and problems that can be answered using Knovel's content and information technology:

• Looking up mechanical properties of industrial magnesium alloys
• Finding the activation energy for the decomposition of peroxybenzoylnitrate
• Changing input data on wet gas flow through chokes
• Finding stainless steel with chromium content within specific limits and choosing an allowable stress above 200 MPa
• Finding an aluminum alloy with 15 <= electrical conductivity <= 20 MS/m and 110 <= thermal conductivity <= 140 W/m K
• Finding information on Genotoxicity
• Accessing data on flame retardant material properties like tensile creep modulus, tensile stress at break, Izod impact stress, flexural modulus, etc. as well as obtaining materials features and specifications
• Finding information on
  • Environmental Contaminants
• Industrial Safety and Hygiene
• Polymer Chemistry
• Transport Processes
• Electrical, Mechanical, and Civil Engineering
• Industrial Chemistry
• Corrosion
• much more

Powerful search tools locate information from nearly 2000 reference titles quickly and analysis tools allow users to sort and filter tables, locate points on graphs, and manipulate data to specific needs to solve equations. Knovel helps researchers do their jobs better and faster while improving the quality and quantity of the work they produce.
