Contents:
pt. 1. Mathematics and numerical analysis -- pt. 2. Measurements and computer control -- pt. 3. Automatic control -- pt. 4. Modeling and operations research -- pt. 5. Sensor systems -- pt. 6. Manufacturing -- pt. 7. Material handling and storage -- pt. 8. Safety, risk assessment, and standards -- pt. 9. Ergonomics -- pt. 10. Economic analysis.
Summary: Annotation This comprehensive reference surveys engineering methods useful in a variety of industrial and factory automation applications, while also covering related technical, economic, legal, and safety issues. The mathematical definitions, concepts, equations, principles, and application notes for the practicing industrial automation engineer have been carefully selected to provide broad coverage. The topics are presented in a tutorial style and are arranged in ten parts: foundations of mathematical and numerical analysis; background information on measurements and control engineering; background on automatic control; modeling and operations research; sensor systems; manufacturing; material handling and storage systems; safety and risk assessment; ergonomics; and economic analysis. Both editors are professors at the U. of Cincinnati. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com).
