Control Surface Freeplay: Mathematical Modeling, Analysis, and Computation offers readers a thorough introduction to the challenges of control surface freeplay in aviation. The book begins by equipping readers with the essential engineering principles and mathematical techniques needed to understand and solve these complex problems. Using modern computational tools, it guides readers through classical freeplay scenarios, providing clear explanations and carefully designed examples that reinforce analytical methods. This approach not only demystifies the modeling process but also highlights how meaningful results are obtained, making the subject accessible to both newcomers and seasoned professionals. Beyond fundamental concepts, the book examines stringent airworthiness regulations that impact maintenance costs and safety for all-moveable control surfaces. It presents rigorous methods to calculate maximum safe freeplay limits, helping airlines and private operators maintain compliance while managing budgets effectively. The text also serves as a valuable reference, summarizing recent advancements and emerging trends in freeplay analysis, making it an indispensable resource for industry practitioners and academic researchers.

This book explores the automation of warehouse processes and the human-machine relationship, focusing on the impact of technology on the dehumanization of work. While modern warehouses rely heavily on advanced technologies, human labor remains essential, requiring interaction and collaboration with machines. The book examines how automation affects not only individual employees-their health, well-being, and daily experiences-but also broader social and organizational conditions.Through systematic analysis, the author identifies and classifies factors that contribute to the dehumanization of work in automated warehouses. Existing theories are verified, and literature on logistics, warehousing technologies, automation, humanization of work, and related challenges is reviewed. The author highlights the tension between efficiency improvements and the human costs of automation, emphasizing the importance of mitigating dehumanization in modern enterprises. By analysing the evolving roles and responsibilities of employees in automated environments, the book provides insights into designing work processes that foster synergy between human labour and technology rather than replacing workers entirely.Written in accessible yet academic language, the book is a valuable resource for researchers, academics, and practitioners in fields such as logistics, supply chain management, industrial engineering and labour studies and those interested in the intersection of technology, labour, and human well-being.

Warehouse Automation and the Dehumanization of Labour

Practice Manuals for Busy Professionals

This new edition combines theories and practical insights to provide guidance and tools needed to navigate the complexities of today's modern workplace.With a wealth of experience across the management and leadership fields, Neil Thompson addresses highly relevant and important contemporary topics for organizations across the world: mental health and wellbeing, diversity and inclusion, health and safety and workload management. The book draws on a much wider range of theoretical literature than is usually the case in the management and HR field and, in so doing, avoids the oversimplifications that are commonly found. It offers a holistic perspective incorporating sociological and spiritual elements that are often missing from the mainstream management literature. Written clearly and accessibly, and with learning guidance offered in each chapter, the book is relevant and useful to professionals as well as to students.Alongside other books in the Practice Manuals for Busy Professionals series such as Managing Stress, Values-Based Practice and Effective Problem Solving, this book offers support to anyone whose work requires them to manage and lead others, whether in the human services or beyond.

A Comprehensive Approach to Developing a Sustainable System

Driving Productivity reconstructs the industrial histories of the American and German automotive industries, offering a fresh perspective on their development. 
 
From the Fordist assembly line to Japanese lean production and Industry 4.0, Anthony J. Knowles critically examines major technical developments within the historical dynamics of capitalism. Both countries face the pressure to automate, transform labor, and increase efficiency, yet their responses differ due to divergent paradigms of integrating business, labor, and government. The book makes a strong case that improving productivity is a never-ending process that becomes a compulsory social imperative that industries must respond to but that is nevertheless responded to differently between countries.

Driving Productivity

A revealing look at the decline in formal employment in favor of hiring contractors, freelancers, temps, and marginal workers, who are excluded from traditional benefits and career ladders. Companies cannot exist without workers, but they are increasingly reluctant to have employees. Instead of providing the benefits and protections that have traditionally come with employee status, businesses are turning to tactics that let them treat people as interchangeable parts, to be used and discarded as needed. Drawing on an original survey of over 6,000 workers, Disposable Workers reveals the striking extent of this transformation across the occupational hierarchy, affecting everyone from janitors to nurses. Paul Osterman identifies three distinct categories of disposable workers: contractors, freelancers, and marginal employees. The marginal category, unique to Osterman's analysis, describes workers who are employees from a narrow legal standpoint but are held at arm's length by their firm-left without job security, skill training, or opportunities for promotion. Many low-wage service workers toil in marginal jobs, but so do white-collar professionals such as adjunct university faculty and staff attorneys at law firms. When the three categories are added up, they account for more than 35 percent of the American workforce. Not all disposable workers object to their arrangements. But most contractors and marginal employees would prefer standard employment, and there is a significant cost to their current status. In response, Disposable Workers offers a range of policy recommendations, including mechanisms to prevent over-reliance on contracting and freelancing as well as reforms to improve job quality for part-timers and marginal employees. As the deconstruction of employment affects more and more workers, the importance of such measures will only grow.

A sharp and comprehensive critique of the postworkerist school of autonomist Marxism. 
 

Motivations for Refusal develops a critical account of how the affective politics of capital and class are formed and contested in contemporary arrangements of work. Drawing on value critique and class composition analysis, he challenges core assumptions of postworkerism and related theories of affective labor, while retaining their core insights. Moving beyond the limits of postworkerism, the book analyses how the integration of the affective sciences into management and workplace technologies constitutes a terrain of contestation in conditions of immaterial production. Motivations for Refusal explores how affective politics emerge in the contestation between labor and capital in their affective modes.

In Mechanism Design and International Risk Regulation Institutions, Mike Nwogugu explains that 'Risk Management Institutions' in this context refers not just to organizations, but also to methods, assets/liabilities, mathematical computations, government interventions and regulations that pertain to global risk management. The author suggests that in order to foster economic growth, international risk regulation should transcend the current emphasis on organizations and assets/liabilities because despite international coordination and new laws enacted in various countries during 2007-2012, risk regulation remains highly ineffective in many countries.
