In this contemporary world, urbanization, industrialization, and digitalization have drastically expanded to provide better living standards for human beings. The rate of change in technology is also very high, which introduces updated electronic devices very frequently in the market, which results in a huge garbage dump of e-waste. With the increase in the use of electronic devices, the e-waste generated over the globe is also increasing drastically, which becomes a barrier to sustainable development. Therefore, it is essential to formulate strategies and manage the e-waste generated from all sources to achieve sustainable goals. Sustainable Approaches and Strategies for E-Waste Management ...
This book showcases cutting-edge research papers from the 6th International Conference on Research into Design (ICoRD 2017) – the largest in India in this area – written by eminent researchers from across the world on design process, technologies, methods and tools, and their impact on innovation, for supporting design for communities. While design traditionally focused on the development of products for the individual, the emerging consensus on working towards a more sustainable world demands greater attention to designing for and with communities, so as to promote their sustenance and harmony - within each community and across communities. The special features of the book are the insig...
The papers in this volume are from the Ninth International Conference on Design Computing and Cognition (DCC’20) held virtually at the Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta, USA. They represent the state-of-the-art of research and development in design computing and design cognition including the increasingly active area of design cognitive neuroscience. They are of particular interest to design researchers, developers and users of advanced computation in designing as well as to design educators. This volume contains knowledge about the cognitive behavior of designers, which is valuable for those who need to gain a better understanding of designing.
This book presents selected papers from the 1st International Conference on Industry 4.0 and Advanced Manufacturing held at the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore and includes deliberations from stakeholders in manufacturing and Industry 4.0 on the nature, needs, challenges, opportunities, problems, and solutions in these transformational areas. Special emphasis is placed on exploring avenues for creating a vision of, and enablers for, sustainable, affordable, and human-centric Industry 4.0. The book showcases cutting edge practice, research, and educational innovation in this crucial and rapidly evolving area. This book will be useful to researchers in academia and industry, and will also be useful to policymakers involved in creating ecosystems for implementation of Industry 4.0.
The book presents latest research-based innovations in the field of mechanical infrastructure presented in the International Conference on Recent Advances in Mechanical Infrastructure (ICRAM 2021). The broad research topics presented in this book are recent advances in thermal infrastructure: This includes aerodynamics, renewable energy, computational fluid dynamics, carbon dioxide capture and sequestration, energy and thermo-fluids, fluid dynamics, fuels and combustion, heat and mass transfer, internal combustion engine, and refrigeration and air conditioning. Recent advances in manufacturing infrastructure includes green manufacturing, instrumentation and control, material characterization, manufacturing techniques, rapid prototyping, polymers, and composites. Recent advances in infrastructure planning and design includes applied mechanics, bio-mechanics, computer-aided engineering design, finite element analysis, industrial tribology, machine design, robotics and automation, dynamics and vibration, industrial engineering, and optimization.
This book showcases cutting-edge research papers from the 7th International Conference on Research into Design (ICoRD 2019) – the largest in India in this area – written by eminent researchers from across the world on design processes, technologies, methods and tools, and their impact on innovation, for supporting design for a connected world. The theme of ICoRD‘19 has been “Design for a Connected World”. While Design traditionally focused on developing products that worked on their own, an emerging trend is to have products with a smart layer that makes them context aware and responsive, individually and collectively, through collaboration with other physical and digital objects w...
This book presents select proceedings of the Conference on Industrial Problems on Machines and Mechanisms (IPRoMM 2022).
