block diagram simplification rules: PPI FE Chemical Review Manual eText - 1 Year Michael R. Lindeburg, 2016-05-05 Michael R. Lindeburg PE’s FE Chemical Review Manual offers complete review for the NCEES FE Chemical exam. This book is intended to guide you through the Chemical Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) examination body of knowledge and the idiosyncrasies of the National Council of Examiners for Engineers and Surveyors (NCEES) FE Reference Handbook (NCEES Handbook). This book is not intended as a reference book, because you cannot use it while taking the FE examination. The only reference you may use is the NCEES Handbook. However, the NCEES Handbook is not intended as a teaching tool, nor is it an easy document to use. The NCEES Handbook was never intended to be something you study or learn from, or to have value as anything other than an examday compilation. Many of its features may distract you because they differ from what you were expecting, were exposed to, or what you currently use. To effectively use the NCEES Handbook, you must become familiar with its features, no matter how odd they may seem. FE Chemical Review Manual will help you become familiar with the format, layout, organization, and odd conventions of the NCEES Handbook. This book, which displays the NCEES Handbook material in blue for easy identification, satisfies two important needs: it is (1) something to learn from, and (2) something to help you become familiar with the NCEES Handbook. Topics Covered Chemical Reaction Engineering Chemistry Computational Tools Engineering Sciences Ethics and Professional Practice Fluid Mechanics/Dynamics Heat Transfer Mass Transfer and Separation Material/Energy Balances Materials Science Mathematics Probability and Statistics Process Control Process Design and Economics Safety, Health, and Environment Thermodynamics Key Features: Complete coverage of all exam knowledge areas.

block diagram simplification rules: Modern Control Systems Engineering Zoran Gajic, Zoran Gajić, M. Lelić, 1996 The book represents a modern treatment of classical control theory and application concepts. Theoretically, it is based on the state-space approach, where the main concepts have been derived using only the knowledge from a first course in linear algebra. Practically, it is based on the MATLAB package for computer-aided control system design, so that the presentation of the design techniques is simplified. The inclusion of MATLAB allows deeper insights into the dynamical behaviour of real physical control systems, which are quite often of high dimensions. Continuous-time and discrete-time control systems are treated simultaneously with a slight emphasis on the continous-time systems, especially in the area of controller design.

block diagram simplification rules: Soft Computing in Industrial Applications Yukinori Suzuki, Seppo J. Ovaska, Takeshi Furuhashi, Rajkumar Roy, Yasuhiko Dote, 2012-12-06 This book contains recent theoretical innovations and a comprehensive collection of industrial applications in the emerging field of Soft Computing. Soft computing is a new form of artificial intelligence and it consists of four core methodologies: Fuzzy Computing, Neuro Computing, Evolutionary Computation, and Probabilistic Computing. These individual techniques are clearly complementary or synergistic rather than competitive. Therefore, it is a common practice to combine two or three methodologies when solving complex problems. Also the systematic fusion of soft computing and hard computing is a highly potential alternative to be considered. Soft computing methodologies are suitable for various real-world applications, because the available information and system knowledge are often imprecise, un certain, or partially even incorrect. To handle such demanding conditions and obtain the required robustness with pure hard computing would typically be either very difficult or expensive. This book is a unique collection of technical articles providing a thorough overview of the state-of-the-art theory and industrial applications. The core articles on evolutionary computation, fuzzy computing, and neuro computing are of particular interest to researchers and practicing engineers. |
