Machine tools are the main production factor for many industrial applications in many important sectors. Recent developments in new motion devices and numerical control have lead to considerable technological improvements in machine tools. The use of five-axis machining centers has also spread, resulting in reductions in set-up and lead times. As a consequence, feed rates, cutting speed and chip section increased, whilst accuracy and precision have improved as well. Additionally, new cutting tools have been developed, combining tough substrates, optimal geometries and wear resistant coatings. “Machine Tools for High Performance Machining” describes in depth several aspects of machine structures, machine elements and control, and application. The basics, models and functions of each aspect are explained by experts from both academia and industry. Postgraduates, researchers and end users will all find this book an essential reference.
“Aunque parezca una hipérbole ocasional, pienso que Novás Calvo puede alinearse entre los grandes creadores de novelas de aventuras ambientadas en la mar: Conrad, Stevenson, London, Melville. Incluso es posible que el autor de El negrero vaya más lejos que ellos en la auscultación de la crueldad humana y del horror legal de la trata de esclavos. Con una prosa austera que puede llegar a ser deslumbrante y un estilo aparentemente deslavazado, pero de una rara y poderosa eficacia expresiva, Novás Calvo elaboró una novela que todavía hoy sigue conservando inalterable su validez histórica y su calidad literaria”. José Manuel Caballero Bonald
Ever since its inception, one of the essential tasks of the EU has been to establish the internal market. Despite the impressive body of case law and legislation regarding the internal market, legal and factual barriers still exist for citizens seeking to exercise their full rights under EU law.

Next to analysing the key barriers to exercising economic rights more generally, this book focuses on three areas which represent the applications of the four basic freedoms: consumer rights, the rights of professionals in gaining access to the market, and intellectual property rights in the Digital Single Market. With...
