| engineering degree for non engineers: Electrical Engineering for Non-Electrical Engineers, Second Edition S. Bobby Rauf, 2021-01-08 This book is designed to serve as a resource for exploring and understanding basic electrical engineering concepts, principles, analytical and mathematical strategies that will aid the reader in progressing their electrical engineering knowledge to intermediate or advanced levels. The study of electrical engineering concepts, principles and analysis techniques is made relatively easy for the reader by inclusion of most of the reference data, in form of excerpts from different parts of the book, within the discussion of each case study, exercise and self-assessment problem solution. This is done in an effort to facilitate quick study and comprehension of the material without repetitive search for reference data in other parts of the book. To this new edition the author has introduced a new chapter on batteries where the basic, yet important, facets of the battery and its sustainable and safe operation is covered. The reader will be shown the not-so-obvious charging and discharging performance characteristics of batteries that can be determining factors in the selection, application and optimal performance of batteries. |

| engineering degree for non engineers: Statistics for Management R.S. Balasenthil, This book is written for MBA students and statistics teachers of Anna University affiliated institutions. It is a natural outcome of the author, after teaching statistics several times for MBA students. It is shaped and reshaped several times to heal the heart and soul of non-mathematical community. This book covers all models in all chapters, completely. Problem identification is the most difficult task in statistics for the students. Hence a new approach with short cuts is used throughout the book to simplify this task. This book differs from other books in approaching the sampling distribution. Sampling distribution chapter is usually classified based on standard error, confidence interval estimation and hypothesis testing; or based on the number of sample sets – one sample, two sample; or based on the sample size – large sample, small sample; or based on the statistical tables – such as z test, t test, chi square test and F test. But this book classifies the sampling distribution chapter based on the parameters – Mean, Proportion, Standard deviation cum Variance. Because the very first thing to be decided by any researcher or a practitioner or a decision maker before applying any statistical tool is the parameter to be used and none other! The syllabus is reorganized as per the convenience of the students. 2nd and 3rd unit of the syllabus is reorganized based on the parameters – Mean, Proportion and Standard deviation instead of standard error, interval estimation and hypothesis testing. Similarly the discrete distributions – binomial & Poisson distributions and Probability rules of 1st unit are dealt at the end. Probability rules are grouped based on two models – associated events and successive events. Each Chapter contains illustrations, examples, formula, short answers and exercise. |

| engineering degree for non engineers: Engineering as a Global Profession Michael Davis, 2021-09-21 While this book begins with the analysis of engineering as a profession, it concentrates on a question that the last two decades seem to have made critical: Is engineering one global profession (like medicine) or many national or regional professions (like law)? While science and technology studies (STS) have increasingly taken an “empirical turn”, much of STS research is unclear enough about the professional responsibility of engineers that STS still tends to avoid the subject, leaving engineering ethics without the empirical research needed to teach it as a global profession. The philosophy of technology has tended to do the same. This book’s intervention is to improve the way STS, as well as the philosophy of technology, approaches the study of engineering. This is work in the philosophy of engineering and the attempt to understand engineering as a reasonable undertaking. |

If you're a desktop, mobile or web developer, this book is your blueprint to getting your startup off the ground with no outside investment.This book intentionally avoids topics restricted to venture-backed startups such as: honing your investment pitch, securing funding, and figuring out how to use the piles of cash investors keep placing in your lap.This book assumes: You don't have $6M of investor funds sitting in your bank account You're not going to relocate to the handful of startup hubs in the world You're not going to work 70 hour weeks for low pay with the hope of someday making millions from stock options There's nothing wrong with pursuing venture funding and attempting to grow fast like Amazon, Google, Twitter, and Facebook. It just so happened that most people are not in a place to do this.Start Small, Stay Small also focuses on the single most important element of a startup that most developers avoid: marketing. There are many great resources for learning how to write code, organize source control, or connect to a database. This book does not cover the technical aspects developers already know or can learn elsewhere. It focuses on finding your idea, testing it before you build, and getting it into the hands of your customers. |
