This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Since 1844 cooperatives have agreed to be governed by common principles and values that identify them through its worldwide federative organization. Those principles and values have been reviewed several times, updating their universal meaning, broadening it and making it specific in the appropriate sphere to the characteristics of the requirements of members and society in benefit of the common good. Important adjustments have been made with updates in 1995 and 2012, with an influence on the adjustment of the ethic by which they are identified. Cooperatives are associations of people whose purpose is to provide services or produce goods for their members. The subject, agent, principle, and objective of their acts is the person, and the structure of their action is subject-subject, which distinguishes them from companies of a different nature whose purpose is a subject-object relationship. They have included in their practices the seventeen SDG's of the 2030 U.N. Agenda, making a solidary contribution to overcoming poverty, social sustainability, and maintenance of the Environment not only of their members and workers but also of the communities around them. 80 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Mixing machines used in the food industry are intended to transmit mechanical energy from the dynamic elements of the machine to the mixed medium. On a global level, mixing machines have been operated with asynchronous motors and static voltage and frequency converters, which ensures the possibility of adjusting the working parameters according to the needs imposed by the technological process. Modern mixing machines have a voltage/frequency converter that allows changing the speed of the electric motor in a wide range of speeds. The existence of the CTF converter allows changing the rotation speed of the mixing arms. Taking into account the need to obtain a varied range of revs of the mixing devices, a particularly important case in the operation of a mixing machine is that of regulating the speed of the drive motor. It is much easier to simulate the electromechanical drive system by applying the MATLAB utility and the Simulink-Sim Power Systems extensions. The mathematical approach based on mathematical models followed by a numerical simulation leads to much reduced financial efforts compared to experimental approaches. 52 pp. Englisch.
