A hands-on guide for creating a winning engineering project Engineering Project Management is a practical, step-by-step guide to project management for engineers. The author - a successful, long-time practicing engineering project manager - describes the techniques and strategies for creating a successful engineering project. The book introduces engineering projects and their management, and then proceeds stage-by-stage through the engineering life-cycle project, from requirements, implementation, to phase-out. The book offers information for understanding the needs of the end user of a product and other stakeholders associated with a project, and is full of techniques based on real, hands-on management of engineering projects. The book starts by explaining how we perform the actual engineering on projects; the techniques for project management contained in the rest of the book use those engineering methods to create superior management techniques. Every topic - from developing a work-breakdown structure and an effective project plan, to creating credible predictions for schedules and costs, through monitoring the progress of your engineering project - is infused with actual engineering techniques, thereby vastly increasing the effectivity and credibility of those management techniques. The book also teaches you how to draw the right conclusions from numeric data and calculations, avoiding the mistakes that often cause managers to make incorrect decisions. The book also provides valuable insight about what the author calls the social aspects of engineering project management: aligning and motivating people, interacting successfully with your stakeholders, and many other important people-oriented topics. The book ends with a section on ethics in engineering. This important book: Offers a hands-on guide for developing and implementing a project management plan Includes background information, strategies, and techniques on project management designed for engineers Takes an easy-to-understand, step-by-step approach to project management Contains ideas for launching a project, managing large amounts of software, and tips for ending a project Structured to support both undergraduate and graduate courses in engineering project management, Engineering Project Management is an essential guide for managing a successful project from the idea phase to the completion of the project.

The second edition of this publication presents an extensive guide to single-function and multi-function cartridge valves. It provides a detailed coverage of their concepts, configurations, and circuits for check, directional, flow, and pressure control functions. The book also includes information on active logic and proportional cartridge valves, as well as the constructional features of integrated manifolds. Additionally, it offers a comprehensive analysis of the characteristics, specifications, advantages, applications, and maintenance of cartridge valves. The introduction of cartridge valves in the 1950s marked a significant milestone in the design of hydraulic valves. The basic cartridge valve consists of an insert assembly that fits into a cavity machined into a manifold. Initially, cartridge valves were designed to perform a single function, and a cavity was created to accommodate the valve. Over time, the technology evolved to include multifunction and integrated circuit features, with many cartridge valves incorporated into a single manifold block. In recent years, there have been numerous advancements aimed at reducing leakage, complexity, and size, while improving the reliability, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness of cartridge valves. The book is structured clearly and concisely, with multiple circuits presented in various positions for quick comprehension. It is an invaluable resource for professionals and academics seeking to expand their knowledge of cartridge valves.

This introductory textbook on supramolecular chemistry is a thoroughly revised and expanded version of the 1st edition, originally published in 2020. All chapters have been brought up to date and now include "Further Reading" sections that highlight relevant developments. In addition, a new chapter on supramolecular polymers has been added. With these changes, this book provides an even more comprehensive introduction to the exciting field of supramolecular chemistry than before. Readers will learn what forces hold supramolecular architectures together, how supramolecular systems are created and characterized, how molecular switches, motors, transporters, catalysts, chemosensors, and other functional systems work, and where supramolecular chemistry can play or already plays a role in our lives. In 2022 the first edition of this book won the Literature Prize of the German Chemical Industry Association VCI.

Powder bed-based additive manufacturing with polymers (PBF-P) has a special position in the world of 3D printing. On the one hand, the components are manufactured without support structures, and on the other hand, the property profile of the components is similar to that of series components, as is also known from injection molding, but with clear advantages in terms of component complexity.In laser sintering (LS), individual component layers are fused with the aid of suitable laser radiation. In recent years, LS components have gained widespread use in industrial applications, so that today one can already speak of an established technology. Nevertheless, there are still many hurdles for LS to overcome in the future in order to free itself from the status of a niche technology. Material diversity and industry-compliant, quality-assurance measures are among the challenges to be mentioned here.To this end, the second edition of this book sheds light on the current state of the art in terms of machine technology and process flow, and specifically on the requirements for the materials used. In addition, the following topics are presented: - Implementation of LS in industrial process chains- Status of international standardization- Innovations in the field of LS materials- Properties of LS components- Selected application examplesThe second edition has been updated throughout; in particular, the material and machine specifications have been extensively revised.
