Identifying constraints explicitly in the design-input document facilitates project management and reduces risk. by Gerald E. Loeb and Frances J. R. Richmond Figure 2. Display window containing ...

When striving for long-term sustainability, designers have latitude as to how complex a system they wish to design. Build sustainability into every aspect of the control panel’s life—design, ...

This article explores key engineering strategies that support this transformation, including hybrid reactor design, clean-in-place optimization, automation architecture, and modular scalability.

Do you find that building automation and controls can be one of the most frustrating parts of a project? For designers, there may be a last-minute push to get the details for the specifications, ...

Bioprocessing is an umbrella term that describes the research, development, manufacturing, and commercialization of products derived from or used by biological systems. For industrial purposes, ...

Appliances such as refrigerators and space-heating and -cooling equipment for buildings and homes account for a large slice of U.S. electricity consumption. More-sophisticated appliance controls ...

Both software and hardware are parts of all motor control systems such as IGBTs, WBG semiconductors and MCUs. Industry 4.0 strongly relies on motor control for its development but energy consumption ...

The most obvious way to get rid of ambient noise is to employ some form of passive or active noise cancellation (ANC). The type of ANC we’re familiar with today was coined in 1989 by Dr. Amar Bose ...

PID control is the gold standard for most moving machines, and quite adequate in most applications that require closed-loop control. However, it's vulnerable to disturbances, and tuning can be tedious ...
