Essays on The Operator

Introduction

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) is a set of standards that work as guidelines to promoting and maintaining the highest levels of safety in varied conditions of work. The guidelines facilitate the formulation of policies that safeguard the health and safety of the employees as well as other people who may be present at the workplace such as customers and members of the general public. In the provision of bounce house rentals alongside other party supplies such as chairs, tents, tables, and decorations, the company is faced with a number of safety and health issues such as ...

Abstract

Improvements in safety culture involve using various tools and taking some measures. Besides the development of techniques, there is also the aspect of management. On the management, there are ways in which safety issues are to be handled including the development of structures and motivating people to become part of the solution to safety problems. Tools for hazard analysis has also been improved over time from the traditional methods to the modern alternative approaches. This essay is going to discuss safety issues broadly in the context of management and tools. It will begin with a list and explanations of ...

Abstract

Various methods of hazard analysis has been developed. Two of these processes are System-Theoretical Process Analysis (STPA) and Safety-Guided Design Process.

Question 1

With older electromechanical controls, the operator used to typically be located physically in closer proximity to the process, and therefore had direct sensory perception of the status of the process (e.g., sound, vibration, light) (Leveson 2011). Under computerized and digitalized controls, the operator no longer has a sensory perception of the status, other than what is viewed on the computer. This requires whomever is designing the control system to determine what information is important to the controller, and that the information provided in the feedback loop between the process and what is reported on the screen is complete and ...

The Main Issue

Employment termination always come and go in the industry. However, termination undergoes certain processes and clarifications in order to avoid issues from arising. These issues originated from several reasons, depending on how the human resource department tackles the situation. Most of the time, the human resource department is knowledgeable enough of the policies and regulations of the company, which eases their decision-making about termination, especially if an employee violated one of the policies. Also, termination processes also include documentations in order to verify the claims and statements of both the HR department and the employee to be fired. Lastly, ...

Introduction

The hydrographic printing technology was developed in 1988. The investigator Motoyasu Nakanishi of company Kabushiki Kaisha Cubic Engineering registered the first patent for the hydrographic printing technology on 26 July 1992. The principle is almost the same of the current hydrographic printing technologies where a transcription film is inserted in a painting apparatus with water. The machine transfers the painting film to the surface. There are many applications in the hydrographic painting in the automotive industry, interior design and industrial applications. The needs of customization and personalization are the force that gives the energy to this industry and the ...

Radiography can be defined as the science of making film records from X-rays, also known as radiographs of the human body’s internal anatomy, by exposing a film that has been sensitized to electromagnetic radiation to the body. It is with these photographs that a record is made out of the findings which are used for examination in the diagnostic processes (Hertrich, 2005). It was formally referred as ‘plain’ X-rays but was switched to the use of electromagnetic radiation because it is the suitable general term that covers the other types of medical imaging like ultrasound. Radiography is usually ...

Abstract This research project aims to establish how the organization can increase its competitive advantage by requiring supply chain vendors to meet ENOC’s standards. A qualitative research methodology was used, and the research design is to carry out semi-structured interviews over the telephone. The semi-structured interview allowed interviewees to expand on their thoughts and experiences while the researcher guides the conversation to say on the topic. Interviews were performed over the telephone with employees at ENOC and employs with ENOC’s supply chain vendors to collect data. The data analysis was carried out by evaluating the results of ...

Introduction

Quoting Marchetti, Ausubel states, “Successful societies are learning systems” (Ausubel, 1995). Organized social learning and the development of our society caused increased technological progress. Since 1400, the number of technological and scientific discoveries has dramatically increased (Appendix A). In the twentieth century, it continued its growth. It was the time of scientific and technological advances that significantly improved our living but at the same time caused environmental problems, as the creation of the internal combustion engine became one of the major reasons of the outpouring of greenhouse gases. In the twenty-first century, we have something to do with them. ...

Introduction During manufacturing and production processes, material handling is key in realizing high throughputs. Most industries however still use manual techniques such as trucks, conveyor belts, and roller chains despite the discovery of automated and advanced systems which could make transportation easier. This is because of cost-related issues. In the long run however, cutting on overhead costs, reliability and flexibility in ...

Abstract

This paper analyzes the importance of generator synchronization to the power grid, the required conditions to perform this procedure and the consequences of imprecise synchronization. For a generator to be synchronized to a grid, the voltage magnitude, frequency, phase sequence and phase angle must match. Manual synchronization depends on an operator to modify generator voltage and frequency, confirm phase sequences of generator and grid, and monitor phase angle difference to timely initiate breaker closure. Automatic synchronizers perform all these function through a computerized system that consists of complex algorithms and control systems, and are categorized in phase lock type ...

Reasons for using the Published and the Assigned Software Deployment Methods The Published Method The reasons for using the technique include the following: If you desire to avail the application for a user when he/ she logs in next time. One can publish an application in a ZAP file.

If you want the application readily installable or un-installable to the operator.

If you long to have software that installs automatically whenever the user opens a file that needs to use it. The Assigned Method One can either assign an application to a user or a computer. The following are some of the circumstances that can lead one to use the designated ...

Introduction

Information Technology is a collection of hardware and software used for storing (saving), retrieving (opening) and manipulating (editing) of information in a computer system. Information in an IT environment refers to the results of processed data while data is the raw material fed into the computer. The main purpose of IT is to process the data and give out the results as information. Whereby the processing may involve; saving, editing and manipulation.[1] There has to be an interface for linking the different components of an IT system. This can be best described using the diagram below:

Introduction

Virtual reality abbreviated as VR is a computer way of making imaginary things look like they are real. In this case, a simulation software is used which tends to make things look as if they are real even though they are not. Virtual reality involves the creation of animated and three dimensional objects which are then operated via a simulation software. Virtual reality can be applied in different fields of construction. It has several advantages and many firms are employing its use in their day to day activities in the firm. Several design works can be achieved through the use of virtual ...
