Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The ABC of Cost Engineering The fact that in normal pre-war times the life of the average manufacturing con cern was less than fifteen years, proves con elusively that there was, and is, something radically wrong with the business methods in common use. Such conditions warrant the plainest language on the part of the author, and his statements deserve the most thoughtful consideration and investigation on the part of the reader, particularly if he is the managing executive of a factory. Every statement proffered, no matter how exaggerated it may appear on its face. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The ABC of Cost Engineering The author's object is to make it possible for the busy executives of American manufacturing enterprises to grasp in minimum time, at least in outline, the principles and advantages of the newest and most practicable methods of determining the cost of producing and selling the products of their factories. It is an unfortunate fact that at the present time a great majority of manufacturers, following traditional practices, are confidently leaning upon cost accounting methods which delude them into the belief that they are more successful than is actually the case. Not infrequently it is made to appear that their businesses are being profitably conducted when as a matter of fact they are losing money.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Handbook of Cost Data for Contractors and Engineers: A Reference Book Giving Methods of Construction and Actual Costs of Materials and Labor on Numerous Engineering Works We also hear it argued that conditions vary so widely that grave errors occur when an attempt is made to apply published cost data. Those who have not been trained to study the conditions affecting costs are likely to make serious blunders in any case; but, if this book is in even a slight degree what it aims to be, it will be of greatest benefit to just such men; for it will indicate to them how to analyze costs and how to study methods of performing work economically.

Download or read book Cost Keeping and Management Engineering written by Halbert P. Gillette and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-21 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cost Keeping and Management Engineering: A Treatise for Engineers, Contractors and Superintendents Engaged in the Management of Engineering Construction This book is intended to assist engineers, contractors and superintendents in reducing construction costs to a minimum. To accomplish this it is necessary to understand the laws or rules of management, and to have daily reports that show the efficiency of the men and machines employed. That there are any scientific laws of management will be denied by many men of the old school, but such a denial cannot be logically maintained. If there is a science of psychology, there must be a science of management, for management is a mental process that follows certain definite laws, obscure and complex at times, but none the less definite when once they are understood. The Farady of the science of engineering management is Mr. Frederick W. Taylor, Past President of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, for he not only perceived and applied certain of the fundamental laws of management, but, in his various papers, and particularly in his presidential address to the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, gave definite verbal form to the laws he had discovered. In a subject so complex it is impossible for any one man to discover all the laws of management. Each student of the subject will be able to add his quota, until, in the course of the next few years, the science of engineering management will become as complete as any of the other younger sciences. We have spoken of the science of management as being a branch of the science of psychology. It is, and it is more. Engineering management involves not only the directing of the human agents engaged in production but the economic application of the forces of nature through the medium of machines. Hence engineering management postulates a knowledge of the physical sciences, and particularly the science of applied mechanics.

Download or read book Feedback Systems written by Karl Johan Åström and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2021-02-02 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essential introduction to the principles and applications of feedback systems—now fully revised and expanded This textbook covers the mathematics needed to model, analyze, and design feedback systems. Now more user-friendly than ever, this revised and expanded edition of Feedback Systems is a one-volume resource for students and researchers in mathematics and engineering. It has applications across a range of disciplines that utilize feedback in physical, biological, information, and economic systems. Karl Åström and Richard Murray use techniques from physics, computer science, and operations research to introduce control-oriented modeling. They begin with state space tools for analysis and design, including stability of solutions, Lyapunov functions, reachability, state feedback observability, and estimators. The matrix exponential plays a central role in the analysis of linear control systems, allowing a concise development of many of the key concepts for this class of models. Åström and Murray then develop and explain tools in the frequency domain, including transfer functions, Nyquist analysis, PID control, frequency domain design, and robustness. Features a new chapter on design principles and tools, illustrating the types of problems that can be solved using feedback Includes a new chapter on fundamental limits and new material on the Routh-Hurwitz criterion and root locus plots Provides exercises at the end of every chapter Comes with an electronic solutions manual An ideal textbook for undergraduate and graduate students Indispensable for researchers seeking a self-contained resource on control theory
