Industrial Engineering

Description

What is Industrial Engineering? It is a branch of engineering which deals with the
optimization of complex processes or systems. While industrial engineering is a traditional and longstanding engineering discipline subject to (and eligible for) professional engineering licensure in most jurisdictions, its underlying concepts overlap considerably with certain businessoriented disciplines such as operations management.

This book explores the optimization of complex processes and systems, extending beyond traditional manufacturing to encompass any methodical approach to enhancing organizational operations. It details the development, improvement, and implementation of integrated systems, including the crucial roles of people, money, knowledge, information, equipment, energy, and materials.

This book provides a comprehensive understanding of industrial engineering’s interdisciplinary nature, overlapping with fields like operations management, systems engineering, and ergonomics. It covers a wide array of essential topics, including operations research, project management, job design, financial engineering, supply chain management, process engineering, safety engineering, and quality engineering. It also discusses important concepts like value engineering, facility management, logistics, and the engineering design process. Textile Engineering provides students with specific training in basic production fields, services and in relation to finished products.

Industrial Engineering is an invaluable resource for students and professionals seeking to optimize processes, improve efficiency, and drive organizational success in today’s dynamic and complex world. The author has a PhD on the subject and is a renowned expert with plentiful experience and knowledge.
