Turbo Flow Using Plan for Every Part (PFEP) to Turbo Charge Your Supply Chain

Turbo Flow Using Plan for Every Part (PFEP) to Turbo Charge Your Supply Chain

A Plan for Every Part (PFEP) is all about determining the right part at the right time in the quantity needed. Turbo Flow: Using Plan for Every Part (PFEP) to Turbo Charge Your Supply Chain explains how to take this detailed inventory plan from the manufacturing arena and apply it to boost performance and cost efficiencies in your supply chain. It explains how to use PFEP to improve management of your raw materials WIP and finished goods inventories. Tapping into two decades of combined experience at Toyota Motor Manufacturing the authors explains how to use PFEP to determine how much you need to build the proper frequency for deliveries how often you need to pick up from suppliers and how much inventory you require. Presents an overview of PFEP for finished goods Discusses internal route planning and design using PFEP data Details external logistics and synchronization of manufacturing logistics and inventory cycles For those willing to fundamentally change the way they do business this book will light the path to more efficient and profitable supply chain management. | Turbo Flow Using Plan for Every Part (PFEP) to Turbo Charge Your Supply Chain

Large Turbo-Generators Malfunctions and Symptoms

Large Turbo-Generators Malfunctions and Symptoms

This book presents a comprehensive ordered relationship between malfunctions and symptoms occurring in large turbogenerators. With this book the operator and/or engineer in a generating station could identify underlying causes of a developing component degradation or a failure quicker which could potentially save both time and money and reduce the trial-and-error troubleshooting process. Large turbogenerators are the most important source of electricity. They can be found in thousands of power stations in every country. Forced outages failures and degradation of these very expensive machines have an enormous aggregate cost to society. As such any tool that can ameliorate loss of production by shaving time from troubleshooting activities and avoiding unnecessary costs by detecting and promptly responding to component degradation represents a step forward. | Large Turbo-Generators Malfunctions and Symptoms

Dynamics of Soils and Their Engineering Applications

Dynamics of Soils and Their Engineering Applications

The book offers systematic dynamic analysis of soils and their engineering applications including machine foundations and aims to develop a clear understanding of the subject. It comprises sixteen chapters. Chapter 1 introduces the reader to the various problems in soil dynamics. In Chapter 2 concepts of theory of vibrations are discussed along with their applications in designing Vibration Absorbers and Pickups. Wave propagation in elastic medium including wave refraction in layered medium is covered in Chapter 3. Chapter 4 deals with the procedure of determining dynamic properties of soils using various laboratory and field tests. Dynamic earth pressures in retaining walls and dynamic bearing capacity of footings are dealt with in Chapters 5 and 6 respectively. Chapters 7and 8 respectively deal with dynamic behavior of pile foundations and slopes. Causes of liquefaction of soils and prediction of liquefaction potential have been discussed in Chapter 9. In Chapter 10 the procedure of estimating the unbalanced forces in various types of machines are covered. Chapters 11 12 and 13 deal with the analysis and design of foundations of reciprocating machine hammer and turbo-generators respectively. In Chapter 14 problems of vibration isolation and screening are dealt with. Chapter 15 discusses the analysis and design of reinforced earth wall located in seismic areas. A new concept of a conventional rigid retaining wall having reinforced backfill is presented in Chapter 16 giving complete analysis and design procedure considering seismic forces. | Dynamics of Soils and Their Engineering Applications

Critical Perspectives on Leadership The Language of Corporate Power

Critical Perspectives on Leadership The Language of Corporate Power

Within contemporary culture ‘leadership’ is seen in ways that appeal to celebrated societal values and norms. As a result it is becoming difficult to use the language of leadership without at the same time assuming its essentially positive intrinsically affirmative nature. Within organizations routinely referring to bosses as ‘leaders’ has therefore become both a symptom and a cause of a deep largely unexamined new conceptual architecture. This architecture underpins how we think about authority and power at work. Capitalism and its turbo-charged offspring neo-liberalism have effectively captured ‘leader’ and ‘leadership’ to serve their own purposes. In other words organizational leadership today is so often a particular kind of insidious conservativism dressed up in radical adjectives. This book makes visible the work that the language of leadership does in perpetuating fictions that are useful for bosses of work organizations. We do this so that we – and anyone who shares similar discomforts – can make a start in unravelling the fiction. We contend that even if our views are contrary to the vast and powerful leadership industry our basic arguments rest on things that are plain and evident for all to see. Critical Perspectives on Leadership: The Language of Corporate Power will be key reading for students academics and practitioners in the disciplines of Leadership Organizational Studies Critical Management Studies Sociology and the related disciplines. | Critical Perspectives on Leadership The Language of Corporate Power
