The diagnosis of abnormalities This book presents an overview of recent and emerging and the resolution of their causes are demonstrated for Additive manufacturing (AM) techniques and their applications in such industries aluminum production plants, and a compendium of symptom/cause/correction as aerospace, automotive, and biomedical. Several of the processes developed responses is included for aluminum plant operators. Most narrated examples also using various materials ranging from metals to plastics, composites to human demonstrate the interaction between human behavior and control, requiring a tissue are explained. The chapters will help provide systematic solution for more scientific, questioning approach to the management of production. This the selection and design of a process most appropriate for AM. The book also approach is drawn from the authors’ more than 25 years of experience, not only provides an easy guide to reading and understanding emerging trends in AM in metals plants but also in petrochemical and in food processing plants. Readers while concurrently appreciating its importance for both existing and emerging get a view into the human aspect of accidents and the problems of production. applications.

Liquid industries, including reactive chemical In order to thrive in today’s increasingly competitive manufacturing, petroleum and metal refining, and food global environment, all sources of new and creative and bio-pharma production, can make great use of the ideas within an organization must be considered. Value concepts of Lean. However, largely because they are propositions allow innovators, who may otherwise naturally conservative and more financially stable than most, these industries be intimidated to voice their ideas, to prepare a document that outlines the Manufacturing & Processing do not generally make use of Lean manufacturing, and great case stories of potential value of their ideas. This book explains how to foster creativity in successful Lean implementation are rare. This book is the first to offer details employees and encourage them to actively search for and document ideas that and examples of adapting Lean manufacturing to liquid industries. It is based will add value to their organizations. Focusing on the necessary data collection on more than twenty years of industry experience from the legendary Raymond efforts, it supplies readers with the understanding to create value propositions Floyd, one of the first to successfully practice Lean in the chemical industry. that separate profitable from unprofitable ideas.

Textbook Model Free Adaptive Control Materials and Process Selection Theory and Applications for Engineering Design Zhongsheng Hou School of Electronic Information and Engineering, Beijing Third Edition Jiatong University Mahmoud M. Farag Shangtai Jin The American University in Cairo, Egypt The book summarizes theory and applications of data- Since the publication of the second edition, changes have driven model-free adaptive control (MFAC) which is occurred in the fields of materials and manufacturing. different from the traditional adaptive control. The Industries place more emphasis on manufacturing products and goods locally, traditional unmodeled dynamics do not exist in MFAC framework. In addition, nanostructured and smart materials appear more frequently in products, and MFAC is suitable for many practical applications since it is easily implemented more emphasis is placed on how products affect the environment. In addition, and has strong robustness. By reading this book, readers become familiar with there has been a change in how the subjects of materials and manufacturing MFAC in a short time, and can quickly carry out their independent research and are taught.
