2001 Honda Civic Owners Manual.pdf

November 18, 2009 · Filed Under Honda · Comment  · Tags: ,

An owner’s manual of seventh generation (2001-2005;EM2, ES1, EP3) of Honda Civic. The 2001 Honda civic uses the MacPherson Strut front suspension instead of double wishbone as its predecessor did, to allow more engine bay room to fit the K Series engine a newly introduced Honda’s engine.

Fundamentals of Compressible Flow Mechanics.pdf

November 9, 2009 · Filed Under Mechanical & Industrial Engineering · Comment  · Tags: , ,

Taken from Preface: This book, Fundamentals of Compressible Flow, describes the fundamentals of compressible flow phenomena for engineers and others. This book is designed to replace the book(s) or instructor’s notes for the compressible flow in (mostly) undergraduate classes for engineering/science students. It is hoped that the book could be used as a reference book for people who have at least some knowledge of the basics of fundamental fluid mechanics, and basic science such as calculus, physics, etc. It is hoped that the computer program enclosed in the book will take on a life of its own and develop into an open content or source project.
The structure of this book is such that many of the chapters could be usable independently. For example, if you need information about, say, Fanno flow, you can read just chapter 9. I hope this makes the book easier to use as a reference manual. However, this manuscript is first and foremost a textbook, and secondly a reference manual only as a lucky coincidence.

Automating Manufacturing Systems with PLCs.pdf

Taken from PROGRAMMABLE LOGIC CONTROLLERS’s Introduction: Control engineering has evolved over time. In the past humans were the main method for controlling a system. More recently electricity has been used for control and early electrical control was based on relays. These relays allow power to be switched on and off without a mechanical switch. It is common to use relays to make simple logical control decisions. The development of low cost computer has brought the most recent revolution, the Programmable Logic Controller (PLC). The advent of the PLC began in the 1970s, and has become the most common choice for manufacturing controls.
PLCs have been gaining popularity on the factory floor and will probably remain predominant for some time to come. Most of this is because of the advantages they offer: Cost effective for controlling complex systems.
Flexible and can be reapplied to control other systems quickly and easily.
Computational abilities allow more sophisticated control.
Trouble shooting aids make programming easier and reduce downtime.
Reliable components make these likely to operate for years before failure.

Taken from Why Use PLC: The softwiring advantage provided by programmable controllers is tremendous. In fact, it is one of the most important features of PLCs. Softwiring makes changes in the control system easy and cheap. If you want a device in a PLC system to behave differently or to control a different process element, all you have to do is change the control program. In a traditional system, making this type of change would involve physically changing the wiring between the devices, a costly and time-consuming endeavor.

Fundamentals of Die Casting Design.pdf

November 7, 2009 · Filed Under Mechanical & Industrial Engineering · Comment  · Tags: , , , ,

Taken from Abstract: Die-casting engineers have to compete not only with other die-casting companies, but also against other industries such as plastics, and composite materials. Clearly, the ”black art” approach, which has been an inseparable part of the engineer’s tools, is in need of being replaced by a scientific approach. Excuses that “science has not and never will work” need to be replaced with “science does work”. All technologies developed in recent years are described in a clear, simple manner in this book. All the errors of the old models and the violations of physical laws are shown. For example, the “common” pQ2 diagram violates many physical laws, such as the first and second laws of thermodynamics. Furthermore, the “common” pQ2 diagram produces trends that are the opposite of reality, which are described in this book.
The die casting engineer’s job is to produce maximum profits for the company.
In order to achieve this aim, the engineer must design high quality products at a minimum cost. Thus, understanding the economics of the die casting design and process are essential. These are described in mathematical form for the first time in this volume. Many new concepts and ideas are also introduced. For instance, how to minimize the scrap/cost due to the runner system, and what size of die casting machine is appropriate for a specific project.
The die-casting industry is undergoing a revolution, and this book is part of it. One reason (if one reason can describe the situation) companies such as Doehler Jorvis (the biggest die caster in the world) and Shelby are going bankrupt is that they do not know how to calculate and reduce their production costs. It is my hope that die-casters will turn such situations around by using the technologies presented in this book. I believe this is the only way to keep the die casting professionals and the industry itself, from being “left in the dust.”
