With so many books and courses online that offer training in PLC programming, new learners/students, plant operators, technicians and engineers aspiring to learn PLCs may get confused where to get started. That is the reason why I came up with this book to help new PLC learners build good foundational knowledge before they embark on a serious PLC programming training. This book starts with a background into Relay control systems to help you appreciate why industries changed their control systems from Relays to PLCs. If you can understand how Relay systems was and is still used in industrial...

Industrial hydraulic technology is expanding and is as fascinating as ever. Hydraulic systems provide the muscle power to run the machines with the smoothest control possibilities. Many professionals design, construct, and maintain hydraulic systems every day. Several budding engineers are initiated into the technology of fluid power now and then. Therefore, spreading technological information on fluid power is essential for advancing fluid power technology. The textbook on ‘Industrial Hydraulics - Basic Level (in the SI Units)’ is written to meet this objective. The textbook provides a...

Modern building projects are no longer dominated by new construction. Today’s engineers are far more likely to be asked to modify, extend, replace, or integrate systems within existing buildings—often while those buildings remain occupied, partially undocumented, and governed by multiple generations of codes. MEP Engineering & Building Systems by Use Cases was written specifically for that reality. This book provides a practical, use-case-driven engineering framework for working on Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing, Fire Alarm, and Low-Voltage systems in renovation, tenant improvement, ...

Build AI Systems That Actually Work in Production. Artificial intelligence is everywhere — yet most AI projects never make it to real-world deployment. Why? Because building production-grade AI systems requires far more than training a model. It requires reliable data pipelines, scalable architecture, efficient infrastructure, and long-term operational strategy. The Ultimate AI Engineering Bible provides a complete blueprint for designing, deploying, scaling, and maintaining real AI systems.

Designing a power substation is not just selecting equipment or drawing a one-line diagram.
