This book discusses advances in materials processing, especially recent trends and applications in welding, grinding, and surface treatment processes. A description of current trends in and innovative aspects of the grinding technology, grinding applications, and surface treatment processes is presented, including the grinding technological parameters, grinding machining methods, new and improved technologies of grinding, design of tools for grinding, construction and materials of grinding tools, surface treatment using grinding in adhesive technology, surface characterization after grinding, and new trends in grinding applications in various industries and other technical and technological areas. Grinding technology plays an important role in the surface finishing and surface treatment of many components. The purpose of this book is to provide information on the characteristics and applications of grinding technology. This information enables engineers, scientists, and designers to make effective use of grinding technology and surface treatment in the manufacturing process of various construction elements and the effective development of this technique.
Tribology is a branch of science that deals with machine elements and their friction, wear, and lubrication. Tribology of Machine Elements - Fundamentals and Applications presents the fundamentals of tribology, with chapters on its applications in engines, metal forming, seals, blasting, sintering, laser texture, biomaterials, and grinding.
Adhesive technologies for bonding composites to multiple materialsInformation on adhesive formulation, selection, joint configuration Presented in this volume is a detailed scientific analysis of strategies for adhering composite materials to plastics, concrete, metals, and wood, as well as to other composites, using a variety of adhesives. The theory and analysis of composite bonding with adhesives are explained, along with information on adhesive formulation and selection, material preparation, joint geometry and joint design. Attention is given to how different types of adhered composite joints are empirically tested, e.g., for strength and under stress, and how models of joints with adhesives are developed. The book includes an intensive discussion of the uses of adhesives for composite repair. Part two focuses on applications of adhesive composite bonding in aircraft, automobiles, buildings, ships, railroads and dental restoration.
This book discusses applications of adhesives and adhesive joints in different branches of industry. The properties of adhesives and adhesive joints, and also the requirements of mechanical properties and chemical and environmental resistance of adhesives and adhesive joints, are very important because proper strength, durability, and time of use are all factors that are dependent on the type of industry. The aim of this book is to present information on the type of adhesives and adhesive joints, in addition to their characteristics, used in different branches of industry. This information should enable scientists, engineers, and designers to acquire knowledge of adhesives and adhesive joints, which could be helpful in selecting the right type of adhesive and adhesive joint to make applications for a particular industry.
These proceedings gather a selection of peer-reviewed papers presented at the 7th International Conference on Fracture Fatigue and Wear (FFW 2018), held at Ghent University, Belgium on 9–10 July 2018. The contributions, prepared by international scientists and engineers, cover the latest advances in and innovative applications of fracture mechanics, fatigue of materials, tribology and wear of materials. The book is intended for academics, including graduate students and researchers, as well as industrial practitioners working in the areas of fracture fatigue and wear.
This book presents some information regarding adhesives which have applications in industry, medicine and dentistry. The book is divided into two parts: "Adhesives Applications in Medicine and Dentistry" and "Properties of Adhesive." The aim of such a presentation is to present the usage in very different aspects of application of the adhesives and present specific properties of adhesives. Adhesives' advantageous properties and relatively uncomplicated processing methods contribute to their increasing application and their growing popularity in the industry, medicine and other branches. Some adhesives represent properties superior to those of most adhesive materials, due to their excellent adhesion and chemical resistance. A wide variety of adhesives' considerable flexibility in modification of properties of adhesives allows adjusting the composition to particular applications.
The subject matter of this book is the information on the abrasive technology methods, the characteristics of the methods (for example, the technological parameters, tools, and machines), innovative methods, characteristics of surface structure and surface properties after this type of mechanical process, and application in various industrial branches and other technical and technological domains. Abrasive technology is very important, for example, in precision component manufacturing and nano-technology devices. The aim of this book is to present information on the characteristics and applications of abrasive technology, abrasive tools, tests, and also the innovative methods of this technology. This information enables scientists, engineers, and designers to ensure the soundness and integrity of the fabricated components and to develop new techniques effectively.
Structural Adhesives Uniquely provides up-to-date and comprehensive information on the topic in an easily-accessible form. A structural adhesive can be described as a high-strength adhesive material that is isotropic in nature and bonds two or more parts together in a load-bearing structure. A structural adhesive material must be capable of transmitting the stress/load without loss of structural integrity within design limits. There are many types of established structural adhesives, including epoxy, urethane, acrylic, silicone, etc. Structural Adhesives comprises nine chapters and is divided into two parts: Part 1, Preparation, Properties, and Characterization; Part 2, Applications. The top...
The current book contains eight commissioned chapters and cover topics including stress distribution and design analysis of adhesively bonded tubular composite joints; durability of structural adhesive joints; mechanical surface treatment of adherends for adhesive bonding; surface modification of polymer materials by excimer UV light; corona discharge treatment of materials to enhance adhesion; adhesion activation of aramid fibers; dual-cured hydrogels for bioadhesives and biomedical applications; and non-adhesive SLIPS-like surfaces.
Waterjet technology involves complex flow phenomena, which include supersonic, turbulent, compressible, and three-phase interactions. This book, by the editor and colleagues, distills three decades of R&D expertise from Flow Industries, Inc. and OMAX Corp., based in Kent, Washington, USA. Organized into 10 sections and 32 chapters, it blends physical experiments and limited computational fluid dynamics analyses as R&D methodologies. Through flow visualization and probe measurement, the book characterizes waterjet geometry, water-droplet and abrasive speeds, surface roughness and edge qualities of machined parts, and more. It showcases advancements in micro abrasive-waterjet technology, recognized as a 2016 R&D 100 Awards finalist and honored with the 2016 Tibbitts Award from the U.S. Small Business Administration.
