Book Contr  le de qualit   appliqu  e      tudes de cas et nouvelle organisation du travail

Download or read book Contr le de qualit appliqu e tudes de cas et nouvelle organisation du travail written by GROUS Ammar and published by Lavoisier. This book was released on 2013-02-01 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L’action qualité est fondamentalement tributaire de la rigueur accordée au processus expérimental ainsi qu’à la maîtrise des outils adaptés aux paramètres d’analyse. Faire de l’étude qualité une simple application statistique théorique serait le signe d’une vision tronquée des causes symptomatiques de la qualification des produits. Les thèmes traités dans cet ouvrage sont structurés selon le cheminement de l’action qualité et de la nouvelle organisation du travail. Contrôler des produits, c’est avant tout les surveiller et les conserver jusqu’à la fin de la mission donnée. La surveillance est l’observation du dépassement d’un pourcentage de rebuts fixé au préalable. Analyser les causes d’un éventuel déréglage du procédé tend à minimiser le pourcentage de rebuts. L’action d’accepter ou de refuser la cote issue du procédé de fabrication doit toujours s’accompagner d’un rapport en vue d’améliorer la fabrication. De nombreux cas sont traités dans ce volume didactique qui s’adresse aux techniciens qualité, aux universitaires et aux professionnels.

Download or read book Dam Surveillance Lessons Learnt From Case Histories Surveillance des Barrages Le ons Tir es d tudes de cas written by ICOLD CIGB and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2022-07-28 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ICOLD Bulletin 180 presents the vast experience gained over the past 6 decades by the dam engineering community in the field of dam surveillance by means of 80 case histories. The documented case histories endeavour to cover the practical experiences related with one or several of the following points: a) Methods for the improvement of the quality and reliability of information. b) Data processing and representation techniques. c) Effective Diagnostic analyses to determine behaviour patterns. d) Dedicated surveillance systems for the optimization of maintenance, rehabilitation, and other life cycle costs. e) Impact of surveillance on preventing dam incidents and dam failure. f) Overview of dam surveillance management systems. The case histories cover a wide variety of technical aspects and deal with success stories but also incidents, some of them with catastrophic consequences. The time framework spans over 70 years: from the times of the Second World War up to the present. The purpose is to learn from these practical experiences, not to criticize the involved individuals, who had to work with the techniques and rules of practice available at the time. This bulletin wants to contribute to keep learning from the experience of the dam engineering community, specifically in the field of dam surveillance. Some of the case histories are widely known and have been described and analysed in numerous publications. Most of them are related to famous dam failure incidents and were compiled as international “benchmark case histories” for this bulletin to focus on the specific lessons learnt related with dam surveillance. Le Bulletin de la CIGB 180 présente la vaste expérience acquise au cours des 6 dernières décennies par la communauté des ingénieurs de barrages dans le domaine de la surveillance des barrages au moyen de 80 histoires de cas. Les histoires de cas documentées s'efforcent de couvrir les expériences pratiques liées à un ou plusieurs des points suivants : a) Méthodes d'amélioration de la qualité et de la fiabilité de l'information. b) Techniques de traitement et de représentation des données. c) Analyses diagnostiques efficaces pour déterminer les modèles de comportement. d) Systèmes de surveillance dédiés pour l'optimisation de la maintenance, de la réhabilitation et des autres coûts du cycle de vie. e) Impact de la surveillance sur la prévention des incidents et des ruptures de barrage. f) Aperçu des systèmes de gestion de la surveillance des barrages. Les histoires de cas couvrent une grande variété d'aspects techniques et traitent de réussites mais aussi d'incidents, dont certains avec des conséquences catastrophiques. Le cadre temporel s'étend sur 70 ans : de l'époque de la Seconde Guerre mondiale à nos jours. Le but est d'apprendre de ces expériences pratiques, pas de critiquer les individus impliqués, qui ont dû travailler avec les techniques et les règles de pratique disponibles à l'époque. Ce bulletin veut contribuer à continuer d'apprendre de l'expérience de la communauté de l'ingénierie des barrages, en particulier dans le domaine de la surveillance des barrages. Certaines des histoires de cas sont largement connues et ont été décrites et analysées dans de nombreuses publications. La plupart d'entre eux sont liés à des incidents de rupture de barrages célèbres et ont été compilés en tant qu'« histoires de cas de référence » internationales pour ce bulletin afin de se concentrer sur les leçons spécifiques apprises liées à la surveillance des barrages.

Book Comptes Rendus Du 15  me Congr  s Europ  en de M  canique Des Sols   de G  otechnique   la G  otechnique Des Sols Indur  s  Roches Tendres

Download or read book Comptes Rendus Du 15 me Congr s Europ en de M canique Des Sols de G otechnique la G otechnique Des Sols Indur s Roches Tendres written by Andreas Anagnostopoulos and published by IOS Press. This book was released on 2013 with total page 664 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication contains the papers presented at the 15th European Conference on Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering (ECSMGE), held in Athens, Greece. Considerable progress has been made in recent decades in understanding the engineering behavior of those hard soils and weak rocks that clearly fall into either the field of soil or of rock mechanics, and there have been important developments in design and construction methods to cope with them. Progress would be even more desirable, however, for those materials which fall into the 'grey' area between soils and rocks. They present particular challenges due to their diversity, the difficulties and problems arising in their identification and classification, their sampling and testing and in the establishment of suitable models to adequately describe their behavior. The publication aims to provide an updated overview of the existing worldwide knowledge of the geological features, engineering properties and behavior of such hard soils and weak rocks, with particular reference to the design and construction methods and problems associated with these materials. Part 4 was published post-conference and includes Conference Reports.

Book Les points de fonction en ing  nierie logicielle  principe  m  thode  usage

Download or read book Les points de fonction en ing nierie logicielle principe m thode usage written by MESDON Bernard and published by Lavoisier. This book was released on 2012-07-01 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La méthode des points de fonction est l'outil incontournable pour la mesure fonctionnelle des SI et l'estimation des coûts de développement. Elle permet de mesurer les services rendus aux utilisateurs du SI, indépendamment des aspects architecturaux et méthodologiques du développement logiciel. Cette méthode s'applique aux fonctions de l'entreprise comme la direction des systèmes d'information (fonctions projet, processus et gouvernance), les directions métiers (fonction maîtrise d'ouvrage) ou les SSII (fonctions projet, qualité et méthodes). Des exemples et études de cas illustrant l'utilisation de la méthode permettent de définir les usages (estimation des coûts, mais aussi suivi des ratios de productivité, etc.), d'attribuer des méthodes spécifiques pour les différents types de SI (IFPUG et/ou COSMIC), de révéler les limites et extensions (cotation des algorithmes) et de déterminer les chiffres de bases (ratios de productivité, taille des SI, coefficients correcteurs, etc.). L'auteur Spécialiste en développement et direction de projet de SI, Bernard Mesdon utilise les points de fonction depuis 1996 comme outil d'analyse fonctionnelle et d'estimation des coûts de développement.

Book Enseignement sup  rieur et   quit   en Afrique subsaharienne

Download or read book Enseignement sup rieur et quit en Afrique subsaharienne written by Peter Darvas and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2018-04-11 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite a spectacular expansion of the higher education sector in Sub-Saharan Africa, the supply of tertiary education has generally failed to keep pace with demand, and the region continues to lag behind all other regions in terms of access to tertiary education. This is in part a consequence of deeply entrenched patterns of inequitable access to higher education, and the perpetuation of what researchers refer to as “elite systems.†? To date, access to tertiary education in Sub-Saharan Africa has unduly benefited students drawn from the region’s wealthiest households, and overall enrollment remains disproportionately male and metropolitan. These factors stifle the catalytic potential of higher education, corroding its potential for driving economic growth and sustaining poverty reduction. Instead, patterns of access to tertiary education have generally reinforced and reproduced social inequality, instead of eroding its pernicious social and economic effects. Sharing Higher Education’s Promise beyond the Few in Sub-Saharan Africa aims to inform an improved understanding of equity in tertiary enrollment in Sub-Saharan African countries and to examine the extent to which inequity functions as a bottleneck, inhibiting the ability of African universities to effectively drive improvements in overall quality of life and economic competitiveness. In our survey of the evidence, we also aim to identify which policies most effectively address the challenge of promoting equity of access in Sub-Saharan African tertiary education systems. To achieve these objectives, the book collects, generates, and analyzes empirical evidence on patterns of equity; examines the underlying causes of inequity; and evaluates government policies for addressing inequity.

Book Mitigating Drought Impacts in Drylands

Download or read book Mitigating Drought Impacts in Drylands written by Federica Carfagna and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2018-04-13 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drylands account for three-quarters of Sub-Saharan Africa's cropland, two-thirds of cereal production, and four-fifths of livestock holdings. Today frequent and severe shocks, especially droughts, limit the livelihood opportunities available to millions of households and undermine efforts to eradicate poverty in the drylands. Prospects for sustainable development of drylands are assessed in this book through the lens of resilience, understood here to mean the ability of people to withstand and respond to droughts and other shocks. An original model was developed expressly to consistently and coherently evaluate different type of interventions on the ground, which provided a common framework to anticipate the scale of the challenges likely to arise in drylands, as well as to generate insights into opportunities for addressing those challenges. Such modeling framework consisted in a) estimating the baseline vulnerability profiles of people living in drylands (2010), b) estimate the evolution of vulnerability by 2030 under a range of assumptions, c) calculated the number of people affectedby drought in the different administrative units of each country, and d) evaluate different types of interventions in agriculture and livestock for mitigating drought impact by calculating the potential for reducing the number of people affected for each scenario and conducting a simplified · benefit/cost (B/C) analysis for each type of intervention. For livestock, simulation models were used to estimate the impacts of feed balances, livestock production, and household income resilience interventions under different climate scenarios). For agriculture, the DSSAT (Decision Support System for·Agrotechnology Transfer) framework was used to assess the potential impact on yields likely to result from adoption of five crop farming technologies: (1) drought-tolerant varieties, (2) heat-tolerant varieties, (3) additional fertilizer, (4) agroforestry practices, (S) irrigation (6) water-harvesting techniques and selected combinations thereof.
