Hello all! I am an engineer interested in education and interactive explanations. Hope to learn about Mastodon, learn from this community, and contribute to it.
#introduction
@munitor Cool. What discipline, if I may ask?
@Lwasserman Chemical Engineering.... are you the L Wasserman of "All of statistics fame"????
@munitor Nope. I'm a controls engineer in Minneapolis.
@Lwasserman This is great! I have a project to right a dynamics/controls web textbook for chemical engineering undergraduates... It is in the early stages and I cannot share here.. yet... but is great to meet someone in the field.. I am purely an academician... never worked in industry.
@munitor I'll do what I can, but I'm not a process engineer. Usually, someone tells me the process that they'd like to automate, and I program PLCs and HMIs to make that happen. I have done work in a fair number of different industries though.
@Lwasserman I go through a whole course in process dynamics and controls and never ever mention the initials PLC or HMIs..... so learning your perspective would be very interesting for me... maybe in the future we can exchange more info!
@munitor Sure. Let me know when.
