An example of a strike is provided in the Maruti Suzuki case study.
Job design
This document discusses various topics related to job design and stress management. It begins by exploring the meaning of work and psychological contracts between employees and organizations. It then examines issues around job satisfaction, performance, and different approaches to job design like job simplification, rotation, enlargement and enrichment. The document also discusses alternative work arrangements and how to manage job and workplace stress through personal wellness and other coping strategies.
Human nature and behaviour
The document discusses personality types and models, including the Big Five traits, Cattell's 16 factors, and Myers-Briggs types. It covers how personality develops, is influenced by both nature and nurture, and how understanding personality can help with self-awareness, managing relationships, and diversity in teams. The purpose is to gain a deeper understanding of human nature and behavior.
Group behaviour
The document discusses key concepts related to group behavior in organizations. It defines what a group is and describes different types of groups like functional, cross-functional, project, and virtual groups. It explains the typical stages of group development from forming to storming, norming, and performing. Important group concepts discussed include roles, norms, status, cohesiveness, communication roles, decision-making styles, and conflict resolution methods.
Motivation
Motivation is a complex topic with many theories and factors to consider. Three key theories are discussed in the document:
1. Herzberg's two-factor theory proposes that job satisfaction and dissatisfaction are determined by different factors, with motivators like achievement and recognition increasing satisfaction, and hygiene factors like pay and supervision preventing dissatisfaction.
2. Expectancy theory suggests that motivation depends on expectations of effort leading to performance and performance leading to rewards, with the anticipated value placed on those rewards.
3. Equity theory is based on social comparisons, with motivation influenced by perceptions of fair outcomes relative to inputs compared to a reference person. Managing motivation requires understanding these cognitive and social factors.

- Additional topics covered include gender and leadership, emotional intelligence, and tasks for new leaders such as creating momentum and managing oneself.
7. communication
Effective communication requires understanding between parties. The communication process involves a sender encoding a message that is sent through a channel and decoded by a receiver. Feedback is important to ensure understanding occurred. Barriers like noise, selective perception, and differing perspectives can interfere with clear communication. Key aspects of strong communication include listening skills, presenting information effectively, and providing constructive feedback.
6. planning
Planning involves deciding in advance what is to be done, when, where, how, and by whom. It bridges the gap from the present to the future. Good planning is an intellectual process, sets objectives, considers alternatives, and helps achieve goals.

Gp 2012 part 1
The document discusses various types of press tools used in manufacturing including work holding tools like jigs and fixtures, cutting tools, sheet metal dies, forging dies, extrusion dies, and welding/inspection fixtures. It provides descriptions of aluminum strip specifications for electrical transformers and mechanical and hydraulic presses. It also mentions progressive dies and characteristics of punched holes and slugs in different materials.
Gp 2012 part 2
Proper clearance between the die and punch is important for stamping operations. Too large of a clearance can result in rolled edges or crowning, while too small can cause high stripping forces and secondary shear where the fractures from the die and punch do not meet cleanly.
For cutting operations in ferrous metals, shear strength is typically 70-80% of ultimate tensile strength. Tonnage can be calculated as the ultimate tensile strength multiplied by the perimeter, thickness, and a compensation factor for die wear. Work and energy of cutting is calculated as average force multiplied by the penetration distance.
Bending operations involve applying forces to sheet metal to create bends and folds. The bend radius, bend angle, and
Press problems

2. It gives examples of calculating minimum and maximum shut heights, tonnage available at different crank angles, and checking press suitability for given operations.
3. Key press specifications discussed include daylight height, stroke, tonnage, energy, slowdown percentage, and how these relate to calculating operational parameters.
Lecture 1
The document discusses various metal casting processes including sand casting, shell molding, expanded polystyrene casting, and investment casting. Sand casting is the most widely used process and involves making a sand mold around a pattern and pouring molten metal. Shell molding uses a thin shell mold made of sand and resin. Expanded polystyrene casting uses a polystyrene foam pattern that vaporizes when metal is poured. Investment casting, also called lost wax casting, involves making a wax pattern, coating it with refractory material, and melting the wax out of the mold before pouring metal.
Ch 3-process parameters 1of3
This document discusses process parameters that affect the stress-strain characteristics of metals during forming. It covers three main parameters: 1) Amount of deformation, which increases flow stress according to the Hollomon and Ludwik equations. 2) Temperature, which decreases flow stress at higher temperatures. 3) Strain rate, which increases flow stress during hot working according to an equation involving strain rate sensitivity. The document also discusses how these parameters influence formability and necking resistance.
Ch 1-introduction
1. The document discusses various metal working and forming processes such as casting, forging, rolling, extrusion, drawing, and powder metallurgy. It classifies the processes into bulk forming and sheet metal forming.
2. Bulk forming involves large plastic deformation of billets, rods or slabs through compressive loads to significantly change the shape or cross-section. Sheet forming uses tensile loads to plastically deform sheet metal into three-dimensional shapes with less thickness change.
3. Metal forming is advantageous because it produces stronger parts through strain hardening and preferred grain orientation in the direction of loading compared to other manufacturing methods using the same starting material.
