Chatham Dockyard: The Rise and Fall of a Military Industrial Complex (Repost)




Philip MacDougall, "Chatham Dockyard: The Rise and Fall of a Military Industrial Complex"


English | ISBN: 0752462121 | 2012 | EPUB/MOBI | 192 pages | 7 MB




Founded in 1570, Chatham Dockyard quickly became one of the most important naval yards for the repair and building of warships, maintaining a pre-eminent position for the next 400 years. Located on the River Medway, the yard was responsible for the construction of over 500 warships in all, these ranging from simple naval pinnaces to first-rates that fought at Trafalgar, and concluding with the hunter-killer submarines of the nuclear age. In this detailed new history of the yard from experienced local and maritime author Philip MacDougall, particular attention is given to the final 200 years of the yard’s history, the artisans and labourers who worked ther,e and the changing methods used in the construction of some of the finest warships to enter naval service. Coinciding with the dockyard’s seeking status as a World Heritage site, this fascinating history places Chatham firmly in its overall historical context.

Industrial Crystallization of Melts (repost)




C.M. Van "t Land, "Industrial Crystallization of Melts"


2004 | ISBN-10: 0824741110 | 304 pages | PDF | 9 MB




At the interface of chemical industry operations, equipment manufacturer input, and the scientific literature, Industrial Crystallization of Melts explores and explains melt crystallization and purification in the industrial arena. This comprehensive account details the orderly conversion of melts into solid, salable end materials and procedures for purification by remelting; summarizes key theoretical concepts relating to crystalline matter and instationary heat transfer; and surveys the equipment available for specific processes. It also offers over 100 tested equations, as well as clear-cut methods for handling organic melts that call for special crystallization provisions.

Statistical Methods for Industrial Process Control by David Drain




Statistical Methods for Industrial Process Control by David Drain


English | 1997 | ISBN: 1461368308 | 467 Pages | PDF | 11 MB




Statistical Methods for Industrial Process Control was written to provide working engineers and engineering students with the statistical tools they must understand to practice engineering effectively. Statistical principles are illus­ trated with authentic semiconductor manufacturing processes examples-a prac­ tice that enables experienced engineers to build upon existing knowledge to leam new skills, and that introduces students to a fascinating industry. Integrated circuit fabrication is an exceeding rich medium for communicating statistical concepts: the industry must perform to extraordinary tolerances­ controlling film thickness to within 5 A, for example.

Childhood and Child Labour in the British Industrial Revolution (repost)




Childhood and Child Labour in the British Industrial Revolution by Jane Humphries


English | 24 Jun. 2010 | ISBN: 0521847567 | 454 Pages | PDF | MB




This is a unique account of working-class childhood during the British industrial revolution, first published in 2010. Using more than 600 autobiographies written by working men of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries Jane Humphries illuminates working-class childhood in contexts untouched by conventional sources and facilitates estimates of age at starting work, social mobility, the extent of apprenticeship and the duration of schooling. The classic era of industrialisation, 1790–1850, apparently saw an upsurge in child labour. While the memoirs implicate mechanisation and the division of labour in this increase, they also show that fatherlessness and large subsets, common in these turbulent, high-mortality and high-fertility times, often cast children as partners and supports for mothers struggling to hold families together. The book offers unprecedented insights into child labour, family life, careers and schooling. Its images of suffering, stoicism and occasional childish pleasures put the humanity back into economic history and the trauma back into the industrial revolution.

Drives and Control for Industrial Automation




Kok Kiong Tan, "Drives and Control for Industrial Automation"


English | ISBN: 1848824246, 1447126068 | 2011 | 200 pages | PDF | 5 MB




Drives and Control for Industrial Automation presents the material necessary for an understanding of servo control in automation. Beginning with a macroscopic view of its subject, treating drives and control as parts of a single system, the book then pursues a detailed discussion of the major components of servo control: sensors, controllers and actuators. Throughout, the mechatronic approach – a synergistic integration of the components – is maintained, in keeping with current practice.




The authors" holistic approach does not preclude the reader from learning in a step-by-step fashion – each chapter contains material that can be studied separately without compromising understanding. Drives are described in several chapters according to the way they are usually classified in industry, each comprised of its actuators and sensors. The controller is discussed alongside. Topics of recent and current interest – piezoelectricity, digital communications and future trends – are detailed in their own chapters.
