TACTICS FOR WAITING --NOTES --ACKNOWLEDGMENTS --INDEXA celebration of waiting throughout history, and of its importance for connection, understanding, and intimacy in human communication We have always been conscious of the wait for life-changing messages, whether it be the time it takes to receive a text message from your love, for a soldier's family to learn news from the front, or for a space probe to deliver data from the far reaches of the solar system. In this book in praise of wait times, award-winning author Jason Farman passionately argues that the delay between call and answer has always been an important part of the message.   Traveling backward from our current era of Twitter and texts, Farman shows how societies have worked to eliminate waiting in communication and how they have interpreted those times' meanings. Exploring seven eras and objects of waiting-including pneumatic mail tubes in New York, Elizabethan wax seals, and Aboriginal Australian message sticks-Farman offers a new mindset for waiting. In a rebuttal to the demand for instant communication, Farman makes a powerful case for why good things can come to those who wait.Waiting (Philosophy)Waiting (Philosophy)115Farman Jason1977-1191473MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910828915603321Delayed response3935906UNINA00828nas 2200313- 450 991050293580332120230511213018.0(CKB)5300000000020021(CONSER)--2018218798(OCoLC)987619439(EXLCZ)99530000000002002120180801b18791879 k-- aengur|||||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierThe advertiserWilmington, Del. :S.

Based on the categorization of manufacturing processes according to the German standard DIN 8580, the different areas of application of machine tools are delineated and the various machine designs, the mechanical structure as well as the functions of the machine types are explained. Numerous three-dimensional illustrations of the principles, color photos, section drawings and schematic diagrams supplement the explanations and provide visual support. First, the machine types for the different manufacturing processes are described — before the multi-machine systems are explained. This is followed by a detailed presentation of the various equipment components of machine tools. In the last newly introduced chapter, the volume is concluded by a comprehensive and detailed explanation of three design examples of selected machine tools based on assembly drawings. The German Machine Tools and Production Systems Compendium has been completely revised. The previous five-volume series has been condensed into three volumes in the new ninth edition with colored technical illustrations throughout. This first English edition is a translation of the German ninth edition. Prof. Dr.-Ing. Christian Brecher was appointed University Professor for the subject Machine Tools at the Machine Tool Laboratory WZL of RWTH Aachen University and member of the Board of Directors of WZL and IPT (Fraunhofer Institute for Production Technology) in January 2004. His main areas of expertise include machine, gearbox and control technology. Since 2012, he has also headed the Aachen Center for Integrative Lightweight Design AZL at RWTH Aachen University as a founding member together with Prof. Hopmann. Furthermore, in 2018, he became the Institute Director of the Fraunhofer Institute for Production Technology IPT. Prof. em. Dr.-Ing. Dr.-Ing. E. h. Dr.-Ing. E. h. Manfred Weck held the Chair of Machine Tools at the Laboratory for Machine Tools and Production Engineering (WZL) of RWTH Aachen University from 1973 to 2004 and was Director and Head of the Division Production Machines of the Fraunhofer Institute for Production Technology IPT, Aachen, from its foundation in 1980 until 2004, as well as founder of the AiF Research Association “Ultra-Precision Technology e.V.” Over the years, he has received numerous honors and awards including the SME Frederick W. Taylor Research Medal in 2007 and induction into Manager Magazine's Hall of Fame in 2015. Prof. Weck is the recipient of the Aachen Engineering Award, honoring him for his life's achievements in 2017.Lecture Notes in Production Engineering,2194-0533ManufacturesMechanical engineeringAutomatic controlRoboticsAutomationElectric power productionMachines, Tools, ProcessesMechanical EngineeringControl, Robotics, AutomationElectrical Power EngineeringManufactures.Mechanical engineering.Automatic control.Robotics.Automation.Electric power production.Machines, Tools, Processes.Mechanical Engineering.Control, Robotics, Automation.Electrical Power Engineering.629.8Brecher Christian1052463Weck ManfredMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910847592003321Machine Tools Production Systems 14261514UNINA
