Simulations for Design and Manufacturing: Select Papers From Aimtdr 2016 (Lecture Notes On Multidisciplinary Industrial Engineering)
by Ravi Kant Uday S. DixitThis book focuses on numerical simulations of manufacturing processes, discussing the use of numerical simulation techniques for design and analysis of the components and the manufacturing systems. Experimental studies on manufacturing processes are costly, time consuming and limited to the facilities available. Numerical simulations can help study the process at a faster rate and for a wide range of process conditions. They also provide good prediction accuracy and deeper insights into the process. The simulation models do not require any pre-simulation, experimental or analytical results, making them highly suitable and widely used for the reliable prediction of process outcomes. The book is based on selected proceedings of AIMTDR 2016. The chapters discuss topics relating to various simulation techniques, such as computational fluid dynamics, heat flow, thermo-mechanical analysis, molecular dynamics, multibody dynamic analysis, and operational modal analysis. These simulation techniques are used to: 1) design the components, 2) to investigate the effect of critical process parameters on the process outcome, 3) to explore the physics of the process, 4) to analyse the feasibility of the process or design, and 5) to optimize the process. A wide range of advanced manufacturing processes are covered, including friction stir welding, electro-discharge machining, electro-chemical machining, magnetic pulse welding, milling with MQL (minimum quantity lubrication), electromagnetic cladding, abrasive flow machining, incremental sheet forming, ultrasonic assisted turning, TIG welding, and laser sintering. This book will be useful to researchers and professional engineers alike.
Simulations in Swift 5: Design and Implement with Swift Playgrounds
by Beau NouvelleDesign and implement simulations using Apples Swift Playgrounds. Computer simulations are used to replicate the physical systems we see all around us. They help us solve problems by performing experiments that may otherwise be impossible in the real world. This book uses simulations to solve counter-intuitive logic puzzles, create procedural artworks, and build habitats for digital lifeforms. To help you create your own simulations using the Swift programming language, this book is filled with projects that you can easily follow along with. All you need is a Mac with the latest version of Xcode installed. All projects are written in Xcode’s Playgrounds. This keeps the process simple. No need to setup an Apple account, or learn anything further about building apps.Simulations are used in many areas within computer science and yet, barely anyone is teaching them. Sure, the fundamentals are in algorithm design, but simulations are a step above that. Usually when writing an algorithm you have a specific outcome in mind. However, when you create a simulation, the system you are modelling can be far more unpredictable than sorting a list, or navigating a maze. Simulations in Swift 5 will guide you through all of this.What You'll LearnSimulate situations with advanced algorithms to solve advanced problemsIncorporate real-world physics into simulated problemsPredict biological and other systems behavior and the outcome of events based on presented factorsWho This Book Is ForSwift programmers interested in tackling fun projects in Swift involving advanced algorithms and factors
Simulator-based Human Factors Studies Across 25 Years
by Ann Britt Skjerve Andreas ByeThe Halden Man-Machine Laboratory (HAMMLAB) has been at the heart of human factors research at the OECD Halden Reactor Project (HRP). The HRP is sponsored by a group of national organizations, representing nuclear power plant regulators, utilities, and research institutions. The HRP is hosted by the Institute for Energy Technology (IFE) in Halden, Norway. HAMMLAB comprises three full-scale nuclear power plant control room research simulators. The simulator studies performed in HAMMLAB have traditionally been experimental in nature. In a simulator it is possible to study events as they unfold in real time, in a highly realistic operational environment under partially controlled conditions. This means that a wide range of human factors issues, which would be impossible or highly impracticable to study in real-life settings, can thus be addressed in HAMMLAB. Simulator-based Human Factors Studies Across 25 Years celebrates the twenty-fifth anniversary of HAMMLAB by reviewing the human factors studies performed in HAMMLAB across this time-span. A range of human factors issues have been addressed, including: * human-system interfaces; * alarm systems; * computerized procedures; * human-automation interaction; * staffing, teamwork and human reliability. The aim of HAMMLAB studies has always been the same: to generate knowledge for solving current and future challenges in nuclear power plant operation to contribute to safety. The outcomes of HAMMLAB studies have been used to support design and assessment of nuclear power plant control rooms.
Simulators for Transportation Human Factors: Research and Practice (The Human Factors of Simulation and Assessment Series)
by Mark Young Michael LennéSimulation continues to be a growth area in transportation human factors. From empirical studies in the laboratory to the latest training techniques in the field, simulators offer myriad benefits for the experimenter and the practitioner. This book draws together current trends in research and training simulators for the road, rail, air and sea sectors to inform the reader how to maximize both validity and cost-effectiveness in each case. Simulators for Transportation Human Factors provides a valuable resource for both researchers and practitioners in transportation human factors on the use of simulators, giving readers concrete examples and case studies of how simulators have been developed and used in empirical research as well as training applications. It offers useful and usable information on the functional requirements of simulators without the need for any background knowledge on the technical aspects, focusing on the state of the art of research and applications in transport simulators rather than the state of the art of simulation technology. The book covers simulators in operational terms instead of task simulation/modelling and provides a useful balance between a bottom-up, academic approach and a top-down, practical perspective.
Sin contenidos no hay marketing (digital)
by Raquel OberlanderCómo crear una estrategia de content marketing para enamorar a tus clientes y transformarlos en embajadores de tu marca. El mundo cambió. Los seres humanos cambiamos. El marketing también debe hacerlo. Y para eso solo hay un camino: los contenidos, que permiten entregar valor real a las personas. Hacer marketing de contenidos es mucho más que levantarse un día y subir un post a Instagram o un video a TikTok. Es definir una estrategia, trazar un plan y ejecutarlo. Un proceso que implica muchísimas etapas, tareas, canales, tácticas, roles y saberes, que Raquel Oberlander tuvo la capacidad de condensar en un modelo al que bautizó HEPIC 10 y que comparte con infinita generosidad en este libro. Crear contenidos obliga a las organizaciones a definir un propósito que va mucho más allá de las ventas y la rentabilidad. Obliga a mirar el alma, en lugar de mirarse el ombligo. Y luego entregar aquello que se descubre en forma de mensajes que no interrumpan lo que las personas están viendo, sino que sean lo que quieren ver (o leer o escuchar). Sin contenidos no hay marketing (digital) está dedicado a profesionales de marketing y comunicación, pero también a los CEO, gerentes, emprendedores, músicos, abogados, contadores, coaches, porque, de una manera u otra, todos necesitamos generar contenido para promover el crecimiento de nuestros proyectos y de nuestra marca personal. Y también es ideal para los creadores de contenido, ya sean productores audiovisuales, diseñadores gráficos, redactores, influencers, freelancers, community managers, que son los aliados clave y grandes protagonistas en este proceso.

Single-Shot 3D Sensing Close to Physical Limits and Information Limits (Springer Theses)
by Florian WillomitzerThis thesis discusses the physical and information theoretical limits of optical 3D metrology, and, based on these principal considerations, introduces a novel single-shot 3D video camera that works close to these limits. There are serious obstacles for a “perfect” 3D-camera: The author explains that it is impossible to achieve a data density better than one third of the available video pixels. Available single-shot 3D cameras yet display much lower data density, because there is one more obstacle: The object surface must be “encoded” in a non-ambiguous way, commonly by projecting sophisticated patterns. However, encoding devours space-bandwidth and reduces the output data density. The dissertation explains how this profound dilemma of 3D metrology can be solved, exploiting just two synchronized video cameras and a static projection pattern.The introduced single-shot 3D video camera, designed for macroscopic live scenes, displays an unprecedented quality and density of the 3D point cloud. The lateral resolution and depth precision are limited only by physics. Like a hologram, each movie-frame encompasses the full 3D information about the object surface and the observation perspective can be varied while watching the 3D movie.
A Single Trapped Rydberg Ion (Springer Theses)
by Gerard HigginsSystems of trapped ions and systems of ultracold Rydberg atoms are used at the forefront of quantum physics research and they make strong contenders as platforms for quantum technologies. Trapped Rydberg ions are a new hybrid technology envisaged to have both the exquisite control of trapped ion systems and the strong interactions of Rydberg atoms.In this work a single trapped Rydberg ion is experimentally investigated. A trapped strontium ion is excited to Rydberg states using two ultraviolet lasers. Effects of the strong trapping electric fields on the highly-sensitive Rydberg ion are studied. After mitigating unwanted trap effects, the ion is coherently excited to Rydberg states and a quantum gate is demonstrated. This thesis lays much of the experimental groundwork for research using this novel system.
Singular Creatures: Robots, Rights, and the Politics of Posthumanism
by Mark KingwellAnxiety about non-human intelligent machines is a longstanding theme of cultural production and consumption. Examples range from tales of golems and Frankenstein’s monster to the evil overlord scenarios of contemporary film and television franchises: Star Trek, the Alien series, and the Terminator sequence, as well as Her, Black Mirror, Blade Runner, Ex Machina, and many other less mainstream cultural artifacts. The source of this anxiety is clear. Non-human conscious entities may turn out to be superior to any biological form of life, allowing a stride across human ambition in a moment dubbed “the Singularity” by AI insiders. This is the turning point when non-human entities advance and reproduce in a manner that surpasses and subjugates biological forms of intelligent life. Although today’s artificial intelligences fall notably short of this level of sophistication, Mark Kingwell argues that we are already more than human in important ways, and likely to become more so as time goes on. In Singular Creatures Kingwell plumbs the depths of cultural and political meaning in the apparent transition to posthuman life. Our immersion in technology, now comprehensive to the point of invisibility, has altered forever what it means to be alive. The politics of posthumanism flow directly from our own situation, at once dependent on technology and afraid of its effects on current and future experiences.More than a century after playwright Karel Čapek coined the word robot – rooted in the Czech robota, meaning “servitude” or “drudgery” – in his 1920 allegory about the alienation of forced labour leading to a violent workers’ revolt, Čapek’s central question continues to haunt us. Can humans and their own creations co-exist in a new cyberflesh world, or is a struggle for superiority inevitable? Singular Creatures is an attempt at sketching the field before any deadly battle is joined.
Singular Spectrum Analysis with R (Use R!)
by Nina Golyandina Anton Korobeynikov Anatoly ZhigljavskyThis comprehensive and richly illustrated volume provides up-to-date material on Singular Spectrum Analysis (SSA). SSA is a well-known methodology for the analysis and forecasting of time series. Since quite recently, SSA is also being used to analyze digital images and other objects that are not necessarily of planar or rectangular form and may contain gaps. SSA is multi-purpose and naturally combines both model-free and parametric techniques, which makes it a very special and attractive methodology for solving a wide range of problems arising in diverse areas, most notably those associated with time series and digital images. An effective, comfortable and accessible implementation of SSA is provided by the R-package Rssa, which is available from CRAN and reviewed in this book. Written by prominent statisticians who have extensive experience with SSA, the book (a) presents the up-to-date SSA methodology, including multidimensional extensions, in language accessible to a large circle of users, (b) combines different versions of SSA into a single tool, (c) shows the diverse tasks that SSA can be used for, (d) formally describes the main SSA methods and algorithms, and (e) provides tutorials on the Rssa package and the use of SSA. The book offers a valuable resource for a very wide readership, including professional statisticians, specialists in signal and image processing, as well as specialists in numerous applied disciplines interested in using statistical methods for time series analysis, forecasting, signal and image processing. The book is written on a level accessible to a broad audience and includes a wealth of examples; hence it can also be used as a textbook for undergraduate and postgraduate courses on time series analysis and signal processing.
La Singularidad Económica: Inteligencia Artificial y Capitalismo de lujo totalmente automatizado
by Calum ChaceLa singularidad económica tendrá lugar en el momento en que la mayoría de las personas no pueda encontrar empleo, porque las máquinas puedan hacer todo lo que los humanos pueden hacer por dinero a un menor costo, más rápido y mejor que ellos. Algunos dicen que esto nunca sucederá, pero la mayoría de los profesionales de la IA creen que sí, aunque no se ponen de acuerdo cuándo. La inteligencia artificial (IA) ya sobrepasa a los humanos en absorber y procesar información. Los robots se están volviendo cada vez más diestros, flexibles y seguros (excepto los militares). La IA es nuestra tecnología más poderosa y debemos comprenderla. Esta tercera edición del libro más vendido de Calum Chace se ha actualizado y ampliado sustancialmente. Sostiene que la singularidad económica es el desafío más importante que enfrentará la humanidad en la primera mitad del siglo XXI, y también su oportunidad más interesante. Los coches autónomos y los teléfonos inteligentes con los que puedes conversar pueden ser los canarios en la mina de carbón, lo que brinde una llamada de atención para todos aquellos que aún dudan de su inminencia. Todos los trabajos se verán afectados, desde los empleos de comida rápida hasta abogados y periodistas. La popular creencia de que la Renta Básica Universal es la solución es sólo parcialmente correcta. Probablemente vamos a necesitar un sistema económico completamente nuevo, y pronto deberíamos comenzar a planificar para prepararnos para la Singularidad Económica. Chace sostiene que el resultado puede ser muy bueno: un mundo en el que las máquinas hacen todos los trabajos aburridos y los humanos hacen prácticamente lo que les place. Pero advierte que existen grandes riesgos, que solo podemos evitar estando alerta a los posibles futuros y planificando cómo evitar los negativos. Chace ha estado escribiendo sobre IA desde 1980 y ha escrito dos libros de no ficción muy vendidos y también dos novelas sobre el tema. En 201
Singularity Hypotheses
by James H Moor Amnon H. Eden Johnny H Soraker Eric SteinhartSingularity Hypotheses: A Scientific and Philosophical Assessment offers authoritative, jargon-free essays and critical commentaries on accelerating technological progress and the notion of technological singularity. It focuses on conjectures about the intelligence explosion, transhumanism, and whole brain emulation. Recent years have seen a plethora of forecasts about the profound, disruptive impact that is likely to result from further progress in these areas. Many commentators however doubt the scientific rigor of these forecasts, rejecting them as speculative and unfounded. We therefore invited prominent computer scientists, physicists, philosophers, biologists, economists and other thinkers to assess the singularity hypotheses. Their contributions go beyond speculation, providing deep insights into the main issues and a balanced picture of the debate.
The Singularity Is Nearer: When We Merge with AI
by Ray KurzweilThe noted inventor and futurist’s successor to his landmark book The Singularity Is Near explores how technology will transform the human race in the decades to come <P><P> Since it was first published in 2005, Ray Kurzweil’s The Singularity Is Near and its vision of an exponential future have spawned a worldwide movement. Kurzweil's predictions about technological advancements have largely come true, with concepts like AI, intelligent machines, and biotechnology now widely familiar to the public. <P><P> In this entirely new book Ray Kurzweil brings a fresh perspective to advances toward the Singularity—assessing his 1999 prediction that AI will reach human level intelligence by 2029 and examining the exponential growth of technology—that, in the near future, will expand human intelligence a millionfold and change human life forever. Among the topics he discusses are rebuilding the world, atom by atom with devices like nanobots; radical life extension beyond the current age limit of 120; reinventing intelligence by connecting our brains to the cloud; how exponential technologies are propelling innovation forward in all industries and improving all aspects of our well-being such as declining poverty and violence; and the growth of renewable energy and 3-D printing. He also considers the potential perils of biotechnology, nanotechnology, and artificial intelligence, including such topics of current controversy as how AI will impact employment and the safety of autonomous cars, and "After Life" technology, which aims to virtually revive deceased individuals through a combination of their data and DNA. <P><P> The culmination of six decades of research on artificial intelligence, The Singularity Is Nearer is Ray Kurzweil’s crowning contribution to the story of this science and the revolution that is to come. <p> <b>New York Times Bestseller</b>

Site Automation: Automated/Robotic On-Site Factories (Cambridge handbooks in construction robotics vol. )
by Thomas Bock Thomas LinnerThe Cambridge Handbooks on Construction Robotics series focuses on the implementation of automation and robot technology to renew the construction industry and to arrest its declining productivity. The series is intended to give professionals, researchers, lecturers, and students basic conceptual and technical skills and implementation strategies to manage, research, or teach the implementation of advanced automation and robot-technology-based processes and technologies in construction. Currently, the implementation of modern developments in product structures (modularity and design for manufacturing), organizational strategies (just in time, just in sequence, and pulling production) and informational aspects (compute-aided design/manufacturing or computer-integrated manufacturing) are lagging because of the lack of modern integrated machine technology in construction. The Cambridge Handbooks on Construction Robotics books discuss progress in robot systems theory and demonstrate their integration using real systematic applications and projections for off-site as well as on-site building production. Logistics, Site Automation, and Robotics extends the new technology of robotics in building-component manufacturing and construction introduced in earlier volumes to on-site structured environments and on-site automated factories. This volume explores 30 different worldwide systems within a careful analytical framework in which the best conceptual features are extracted in order to help professionals and researchers develop new applications. The analytical approach splits the systems studies into a technical portion and a portion that focuses on parameters related to productivity, efficiency, and economic performance. A benefit of automated on-site factories is the integration of several stand-alone, single-task construction robots into structured on-site environments with networked machine systems to show improvements in on-site organization, integration, and material flow. Focuses on machine technology. A new interpretation of architecture and construction: from building 'construction' to building 'production'. Follows a cross disciplinary approach that relates traditional architectural and construction knowledge with the latest knowledge from manufacturing, automation and robot technology.
Site Reliability Engineering: How Google Runs Production Systems
by Chris Jones Niall Richard Murphy Betsy Beyer Jennifer PetoffThe overwhelming majority of a software system's lifespan is spent in use, not in design or implementation. So, why does conventional wisdom insist that software engineers focus primarily on the design and development of large-scale computing systems?In this collection of essays and articles, key members of Google's Site Reliability Team explain how and why their commitment to the entire lifecycle has enabled the company to successfully build, deploy, monitor, and maintain some of the largest software systems in the world.
