Mathematical Models for Performing Human Reliability and Error Analysis in Power Plants.Human reliability, error, and human factors in the area of power generation have been receiving increasing attention in recent years. Each year billions of dollars are spent in the area of power generation to design, construct/manufacture, operate, and maintain various types of power systems around the globe, and such systems often fail due to human error. This book compiles various recent results and data into one volume, and eliminates the need to consult many diverse sources to obtain vital information.  It enables potential readers to delve deeper into a specific area, providing the source of most of the material presented in references at the end of each chapter. Examples along with solutions are also provided at appropriate places, and there are numerous problems for testing the reader’s comprehension.  Chapters cover a broad range of topics, including general methods for performing human reliability and error analysis in power plants, specific human reliability analysis methods for nuclear power plants, human factors in control systems, and human error in power plant maintenance. They are written in such a manner that the potential reader requires no previous knowledge to understand their contents. “Human Reliability, Error, and Human Factors in Power Generation” will prove useful to many individuals, including engineering professionals working in the power generation industry, researchers, instructors, and undergraduate and graduate students in the field of power engineering.Springer series in reliability engineering.Human engineeringHuman-machine systemsErrorsPreventionReliability (Engineering)FallibilityElectric power-plantsMaintenance and repairQuality controlHuman engineering.Human-machine systems.ErrorsPrevention.Reliability (Engineering)Fallibility.Electric power-plantsMaintenance and repairQuality control.620.82Dhillon B.

Delay-Medien wie die Sonographie, das Sonar oder Radar haben weitreichende Implikationen für aktuelle Medienkulturen. Dabei musste sich die Verdatung von Umwelten und Körpern als Funktion von Übertragungszeiten zunächst aber historisch beweisen. Christoph Borbach widmet sich in neun Fallgeschichten frühen Temporalisierungen von Räumen in Kontexten von u.a. Medizin, Post, Militär und Computertechnik. Innovativ beleuchtet er so die Medienkultur-, Wissens- und Praxisgeschichte des Akteurs Delay - von ersten Sensormedien im 19. Jahrhundert bis hin zu Infrastrukturen der Verarbeitung von Big Data in Echtzeit.SOCIAL SCIENCE / Media StudiesbisacshMedia Culture.Media History.Media Studies.Media Theory.Media.Radar.Sonar.Sonography.Sound.Space.Technology.Time.SOCIAL SCIENCE / Media Studies.Borbach Christoph, authttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1070625DE-B1597DE-B1597BOOK996580166903316Delay - Mediengeschichten der Verzögerung, 1850-19504128462UNISA
