Sensors are the eyes, ears, and more, of the modern engineered product or system. The modern automobile would not be what it is today without an entire battery of sensors that monitor, and control, everything from engine performance to passenger safety and comfort. This authoritative reference work, part of Momentum Press’s new Comprehensive Sensors Technology series, edited by Dr. Joe Watson, will offer a complete review of all sensors and their associated controls systems typically found in the modern automotive vehicle.

In this book, advanced methods and techniques of monitoring, fault diagnostics, and predictive maintenance for cryogenics are illustrated. In Part I on Background, mainstreams in the related research are reviewed. In Part II of Methods, for monitoring helium distribution and consumption in cryogenic systems for particle accelerators, a virtual flowmeter is presented. Then, for fault diagnostics, two methods, for fault detection on a compressor, and for distributed diagnostics based on a micro-genetic algorithm, are described.

This book addresses several issues related to the metrological characterization of high-performance pulsed power converters. In the introduction a background and state-of-the-art on measurement systems for highperformance power converters are presented. In industrial applications of high performance power converter metrology, specifications are often given in terms of worst-case uncertainty (WCU). For this reason, an analytical model for predicting the WCU of a measurement system is discussed and detailed for instruments affected by Gaussian noise.

Modern automated industrial systems depend on accurate and prompt monitoring for equipment and system performance, along with determining pending faults and maintenance issues. This new book will offer the newest approaches to developing and writing the software algorithms that underlie automated monitoring.

Automated machinery, such as computer numerical control machines (CNM), require constant monitoring for accuracy and precision. Thus, a correct understanding of 'metrology'--the science of measurement--is essential to the successful running and maintenance of all automated machines, and especially CNC machines.

Modern industrial automation developed from simple pre-programmed machine instructions to complex general manufacturing systems in a span of about 50 years, and that development continues. Much of that development has proven disruptive for people and society, although many enjoy its benefits.

This book focuses on the all-important human-machine interface and its societal implications. Whether you’re immersed in the automation field or just want to learn more about this fascinating field, this exceptional title will be all you need.

The storing, handling, and processing of bulk solid materials is fundamental to nearly every manufacturing and processing industry, from the food industry and agribusiness, to the plastics industry, to the mining and cement industries, to coal-fired electric utilities. Automating the handling and processing of solids is rapidly growing, but little has been published on the use of radar, especially for applications with highly dusty solids encountered in silos and other bulk storage facilities.

Technical topics in science and engineering always present challenges when it comes to conveying or arguing information in a clear and effective manner. This book was written to address that challenge, using time-proven techniques developed by the author for academic courses and onsite training programs he has used for several decades at engineering schools, design and professional conferences.
