These are exciting times for manufacturing engineers. It has been
said that American industry will undergo greater changes during the
1980 and 1990 decades than it did during the entire eight preceding
decades of this century. The industrial robot has become the symbol
of this progress in computer-integrated manufacturing. This book is
for engineers and managers in manufacturing industries who are
involved in implementing robotics in their operations. With tens of
thousands of industrial robots already in use in the United States,
there are plenty of role models for proposed applications to be
patterned after. This book provides an overview of robot
applications and presents case histories that might suggest
applications to engineers and managers for implementation in their
own facilities. The application of industrial robots were well
developed in the late 1970s and early 1980s. While the reader may
note some of the examples discussed in this handbook incorporate
older robot models, it is the application that is of interest. As
Joseph Engelberger, the founding father of robotics has pointed
out, industrial robots in 1988 are "doing pretty much the same kind
of work" as they did in 1980.
Each year since 1961, the Rochester Trophoblast Conference has
grown in the diversity of its approaches to trophoblast research.
At the Ninth Conference, Professors Klopper, Villee and Winick
molded the conference with their state of the art addresses on
Endocrinology, Metabolism and Nutrition of the Trophoblast. The
Conference was favored with a multitude of creative studies and
with warm, sunny, autumn weather to discuss these results. In
October of 1982, one hundred and five investigators from 12
countries and 21 states discussed 42 different presentations at the
Holiday Inn in Rochester, New York. The Ninth Conference introduced
workshops on Metabolism, Nutrition, Endocrinology and Trophoblastic
Neoplasia. The chairmen of these workshops were: Metabolism -Villee
and Miller; Nutrition - Winick and Maulik; Endocrinology - Klopper
and Muechler; and Trophoblastic Neoplasia -Szulman and Helmkamp.
These two-hour, intimate discussion groups were well-received by
all who attended. As with the Eighth Conference, the University of
Rochester will no longer produce a transcript of the Conference.
Beginning with the Ninth Conference, Plenum Press in association
with the University, will publish a peer-reviewed series entitled
Trophoblast Research. An international editorial advisory board has
been named to assure the direction of the series. The editorial
board and the organizing committee will develop the future meetings
of the Rochester Trophoblast Conference. Trophoblast Research will
be published as single bound volumes with original contributions
and editorial reports of presentations from the Conference.
Aimed at manufacturing managers and engineers looking for an
introduction to computer vision and its potential, this book
discusses the areas in which machine vision is being used, explains
different types of machine vision hardware and software and
summarizes research at several universities. The book's key chapter
highlights the use of machine vision for automated inspections,
discussing cases in bottling, parts, printed circuit board
inspection and inspection and other areas. The authors explain how
to pinpoint areas where machine vision can be applied effectively
and the factors to consider. Included is a glossary of computer
vision terms and a list of machine vision companies. This book
should be of interest to manufacturing managers and engineers.
"Drugs During Pregnancy and Lactation, 3rd Edition" is a quick
and reliable reference for all those working in disciplines related
to fertility, pregnancy, lactation, child health and human genetics
who prescribe or deliver medicinal products, and to those who
evaluate health and safety risks. Each chapter contains twofold
information regarding drugs that are appropriate for prescription
during pregnancy and an assessment of the risk of a drug when
exposure during pregnancy has already occurred. Thoroughly updated
with current regulations, references to the latest pharmacological
data, and new medicinal products, this edition is a comprehensive
resource covering latest knowledge and findings related to drugs
during lactation and pregnancy.
Provides evidence-based recommendations to help clinicians make
appropriate recommendationsUniquely organized and structured
according to drug class and treatment indications to offer
authoritative clinical content on potential adverse effects
Highlights new research developments from primary source about
working mechanism of substances that cause developmental
disorders
