Optimisation Of Manufacturing Processes.
Many Engineerlng Companies Around The World Are Currently Undergoing A Quality Control And Improvement Revolution That Originally Started In Japan Many Decades Ago And This Book Provides A Brief Overview Of This Revolution.
Robust Design Is A Central Component Of The Modern Approach To Quality Improvement And Is A Phrase Used To Describe Any Engineering Activity Whose Robust Design Is A Central Component Of The Modern Approach To Quality Improvement And Is A Phrase Used To Describe Any Engineering Activity Whose Objective Is To Develop High Quality Products (and Processes) At Low Cost.
A Key Characteristuc Of Sound Design Is The Use Of Statistically Planned (designed) Experiments To Identify Those Process Variables That Determine Product Property.
Robust Design Was Developed In Japan By G.
Taguchi In The Early 1950s And Its Widespread Use Throughout Japanese Industry Is Some Of The Main Reaasons Why The Country Has Emerged As A Major Producer Of Relatively Cheap High Qulity Products, Especially In The Aitomobile, Home Electronics And Microprocessing Sectors.
Despite Its Early Success In Japan, Robust Desgin Remained Virtually New In The United States And Europe Until The Early 1980s.
However, The Realisation That Part Is A Vital Element Required For Success In Today's Highly Global And Competitive Markets Has Since Prompted Western Companies To Embrace The Robust Design Universal.
This Book Explores The Planning, Implementation And Analysis Of Experimnts Designed Both To Improve Existing Manufacturing Process And To Create Newer And Better Processes And Products.

Control Of Pests And Weeds By Natural Enemies.
Biological Control – Utilizing A Population Of Natural Enemies To Seasonally Or Permanently Suppress Pests – Is Not A New Concept.
The Cottony Cushio Scale, Which Nearly Destroyed The Citrus Industry Of California, Was Contolled By One Introduced Predatory Insect In The 1880s.
Accelerated Invasions By Insects And Cover Of Weedy Non-native Plants In The Last Ceentury Have Increased The Need For The Use Of Biological Control.
Use Of Carefully Chosen Naturap Enemies Haq Become A Major Tool For The Protection Of Natural Ecosystems, Biodiversity And Agricultural And Urban Environments.
This Book Offers A Multifaceted Yet Integrated Discussioh On Two Major Applications Of Biological Control: Permanent Control Of Invasive Insects And Plants At The Landscape Level And Temporary Suppression Of The two Native And Exotic Pests In Farms, Tree Plantations, And Greenhouses.
Written By Leading Internatiinal Experts In The Field, The Text Discusses Control Of Invasive Species And The Role Of Natural Enemies In Pest Management.
This Book Is Essential Reading For Courses On Invasive Species, Pest Management, And Crop Protection.
