Summary

From the dawn of vision correction with the advent of eyeglasses to the revolutionary advancements in Lasik surgery and beyond, this exploration traverses the evolution of techniques that enhance and restore our eyesight. Alongside conventional methods like contact lenses and glasses, we will navigate through modern innovations that hold the promise of reshaping the landscape of vision correction.
But this book goes beyond the physical mechanisms of eyesight. It unravels the tapestry of ocular health, addressing contemporary issues, preventative measures, and emerging technologies that not only correct vision but also contribute to the holistic well-being of our eyes.
Join me on this captivating expedition into the realm of eyes and eyesight, where science, technology, and the innate wonder of our sensory perception converge. Together, let's embark on a comprehensive exploration that celebrates the intricate symphony of our eyes as they reveal the world outside—a world that unfolds before us, vibrant, detailed, and filled with infinite possibilities.PUBLISHER: TEKTIME

    Delicate yet powerful, the Mourning Dove, scientifically known as Zenaida macroura, enchants listeners with its slender form, small head, and gracefully elongated tail. Its feathers paint a canvas of earthy hues, with brown and gray adorning its upper parts and a soothing beige gracing its underparts. In this meticulously captured binaural audio, you will find yourself transported to the Californian Woodlands, where a gentle babbling river stream weaves its melodic course through the surroundings. Harmonizing with the tranquil river, the Mourning Dove's cooing calls serenade your ears, filling the air with their unique and captivating melodies. As you listen, you may also encounter the harmonious contributions of other avian companions, such as the Acorn Woodpecker, while the gentle chorus of crickets and the occasional bullfrog's chirp enhance the symphony of nature.

    Product management has become a critical function for modern organizations, from small startups to corporate enterprises. And yet, the day-to-day work of product management remains largely misunderstood. In theory, product managers are high-flying visionaries who build products that people love. In practice, they're hard-working facilitators who bring clarity and focus to their teams. 
     
     
     
    In this thoroughly revised and expanded edition, Matt LeMay provides real-world guidance for current and aspiring product managers. Updated for the era of remote and hybrid work, this book provides actionable answers to product management's most persistent and confounding questions, starting with: What exactly am I supposed to do all day? 
     
     
     
    With this book, you'll learn what the day-to-day work of product management entails—and how to excel at it; why no job title or description will resolve the ambiguity of your role; how to bridge the false dichotomy between "strategy" and "execution"; why the temptation to focus on decks and documentation can be bad for your team (and for you); and how to prioritize your time and pick your battles.

  • Introduction to Power System Protection - cover

    Introduction to Power System...

    Power system protection systems have three basic components: Instrument transformers, Relays, Circuit breakers
    
    The function of the CT is to reproduce in its secondary winding a current I' that is proportional to the primary current I. The CT converts primary currents in the kiloamp range to secondary currents in the 0–5 ampere range for convenience of measurement.
    
    The function of the relay is to discriminate between normal operation and fault conditions. The OC relay in Figure 2 has an operating coil, which is connected to the CT secondary winding, and a set of contacts. When |I'| exceeds a specified ''pickup'' value, the operating coil causes the normally open contacts to close. When the relay contacts close, the trip coil of the circuit breaker is energized, which then causes the circuit breaker to open.
    
    System-protection components have the following design criteria:
    • Reliability: Operate dependably when fault conditions occur, even after remaining idle for months or years. Failure to do so may result in costly damages.
    • Selectivity: Avoid unnecessary, false trips.
    • Speed: Operate rapidly to minimize fault duration and equipment damage. Any intentional time delays should be precise.
    • Economy: Provide maximum protection at minimum cost.
    • Simplicity: Minimize protection equipment and circuitry.
    
    Since it is impossible to satisfy all these criteria simultaneously, compromises must be made in system protection.
    
    The book consists from the following sections:
    1. Chapter 1: Power System Faults:
    2. Chapter 2: Instrument Transformers.
    3. Chapter 3: Overcurrent and Earth Fault Protection Relays.
    4. Chapter 4: Radial System Protection.
    5. Chapter 5: Zones of Protection.
    6. Chapter 6: Differential Relays.
    7. Chapter 7: Distance Relays.
    8. Chapter 8: Transformer Protection.
    9. Chapter 9: Generator Protection.
    10. Chapter 10: Busbar Protection.
    11. Chapter 11: Circuit Breakers.
    12. Chapter 12: Fuses.
    13. Chapter 13: References.
