This book presents All of the major topics in modern analog and digital control systems, along with the practical, applications oriented knowledge and skills needed by technicians. It contains user-friendly conceptual explanations and clearly written mathematical developments. Examples of both Mathcad and MATLAB illustrate computer problem solving—but this book emphasizes the ability to use any suitable software to achieve successful results in solving problems and performing design. Chapter topics include Measurement; Laplace Transforms; Control System Models; Static and Dynamic Response; Stability; Frequency Response Analysis; Root Locus; State Variable Analysis; Introduction to Discrete Control Systems; Z-Transforms and Discrete State-Space Analysis; Digital Signal Representations; Discrete Time Control Systems; Stability of Discrete Control Systems; and Advanced Topics in Control Systems. For engineers and technicians working for companies that integrate control systems with the use of programmable logic controllers.

Purpose of book is to present the essential and practical aspects of microprocessor applications to control and in particular to process control. Does not concern the analysis of control system operation but rather the design of hardware and software, which can provide the mechanism of control. The tuning of such control systems and topics such as stability and optimal control analysis are not covered.

Johnson (University of Houston) covers both the fundamental theoretical concepts of process control and the more practical aspects of assembling, troubleshooting, adjusting and operating a control system. The sixth edition adds new material on solid-state sensors for temperature and pressure, and analog-to-digital conversion via frequency counting. Annotation c.

Process Control Instrumentation Technology (6th Edition)

This manual is designed to provide users with an understanding and appreciation of some of the theoretical concepts behind control system elements and operations, without the need of advanced math and theory. It also presents some of the practical details of how elements of a control system are designed and operated, such as would be gained from on-the-job experience. This middle ground of knowledge enables users to design the elements of a control system from a practical, working perspective, and comprehend how these elements affect overall system operation and tuning.  The guidebook provides an introduction to process control, and covers analog and digital signal conditioning, thermal, mechanical and optical sensors, final control, discrete-state process control, controller principles, analog controllers, digital control and control loop characteristics.  For those working in measurement and instrumentation and with PLCs.

Updated to reflect new digital technology and the growing specialization and complexity in the field, this is a practical introduction to applied process control concepts, design, and technology. This new edition now features a chapter devoted entirely to the control of discrete-state processing systems. The text provides a good practical and theoretical understanding of stability and mode characteristics, and practical, design- level guidelines for measurement, electronic, pneumatic, and mechanical features of process-control loops. It also covers actual system elements, including measurement methods, signal conditioning, and final control elements, employing just the mathematics necessary to design loop elements to satisfy specifications. The previous edition of this book was published in 1982.

Process Control: Instrumentation Technology

Experiments, Instruments & Measurement

Through an examination of religious life in a typical northern rural locale―Cortland County, New York―from 1790 to 1860, Curtis D. Johnson adds to our understanding of the Second Great Awakening, an intellectual and religious watershed in American history. Offering both quantitative and qualitative analyses of churches' memberships, ideologies, and activities, he maintains that scholars have misunderstood the historical significance of evangelicalism. 
Johnson contends that these churches did not constitute society, nor were they microcosms of it; rather, they evolved from embattled congregations of the saved―"islands of holiness"―to ideologically conservative, organizationally unified, integrated parts of society. He uncovers the many diversities of Protestantism in the form of splits between evangelicals and non-evangelicals, formalists and anti-formalists, Arminians and Calvinists, Old School traditionalists and Oberlin perfectionists, church members and religious society members.
At the heart of the revivalistic impulse, he argues, was ideological conflict―primarily between Calvinists and Arminians―with gender politics and internal church dynamics also contributing to the evangelical tumult. With a special interest in the Awakening's impact on congregational life, Johnson focuses on rural community experience to challenge the findings of historians who have concentrated exclusively on urban religious expression. He concludes that the importance of the various factions of evangelicalism lies in their common exhortation to republicanism and reform: these congregations, he says, influenced social change out of proportion to their numbers because activism was a central tenet of their religion.
Islands of Holiness is a gem of local history. A meticulously researched book, it makes a valuable contribution to an enduring aspect of the social history of American religious expression.
