The Art of Manufacturing - Overcome control challenges for increasing efficiency in manufacturing using real-world examples

Ninad Deshpande, Sivaram Pothukuchi

Sinopse

Engineering disciplines focus mainly on programming control systems, while the challenges they overcome or their industry applications largely go uncovered, leaving a huge gap between the theory and industry practices. This leads to engineers learning about subjects without actually understanding their purpose and entering the industry needing months of training.The Art of Manufacturing cuts across pedantic theory and reaches practical applications. You’ll begin your learning journey by starting from the product and moving backward to the manufacturing landscape, factories, machines, and finally to the automation and control challenges faced in manufacturing. The book builds on the authors’ valuable on-field experience, providing a detailed view of the manufacturing of real-world products, while simultaneously providing various analogies and references to daily tasks. As you advance through the chapters, you’ll work on interesting control problems and find out how to overcome them in applications. The concluding chapters offer you a sneak peek into the future of automation and factories.By the end of this book, you’ll be able to relate a real-world product with an associated control challenge and discover ways to overcome these challenges.

Think Less Sleep More - From...

Stephanie Romiszewski

A smart and sometimes counterintuitive (who cares when you go to bed?) guide that will solve listeners’ sleep anxiety once and for all! This program is read by the author.If there’s anything worse that not getting sleep, it’s lying awake with a scare-face staring at the ceiling worrying about it. Here’s Romiszewski’s—a sleep physiologist and founder of the UK’s Sleepyhead Clinics—promise: “This book is your guide to liberating yourself from the endless cycle of sleep anxiety and obsession. By the end, you’ll have regained control – not through perfection, but by letting go of the need to constantly manage your sleep. Sleep will start working for you, not as something to fear or fix, but as your natural ally. And best of all, it will no longer dominate your thoughts.”THINK LESS, SLEEP MORE is a sensible take on sleep with some counterintuitive twists to current accepted dogma, such as that we all need more sleep and that segmented sleep—aka waking up in the middle of the night—is a killer. It’s a health and wellness sigh-of-relief book: there are some readjustments to make, both mental and physical, but a key takeaway is that whatever you’re doing now is probably better than you think.Among other counterintuitive insights, Romiszewski reveals:—The importance of a consistent wake-time rather than a rigid bedtime—How to trust your body’s natural sleep drive and rhythms—That ‘bad’ nights neither ruin the next day, nor, necessarily, your health, and that variability is normal—That sleep isn’t fragile—it’s adaptable, resilient, and smarter than any hack you could throw at it—The myth of eight hours—The power of lightFor an audience who found Matthew Walker’s Why We Sleep a bit daunting, Romiszewski’s is the sensible, seasoned, calming voice you want to think of a 3 a.m.A Macmillan Audio production from St. Martin’s Press Essentials
