The contributions of the book relate to the research areas: - Materials and structures in nanotechnology and biomaterials - Biomimetic approaches to develop new forms, construction principles and design methods in architecture - Information and dynamics in automation, neuroinformatics and biomechanics Readers will be informed about the latest research approaches and results in biomimetics with examples ranging from bionic nano-membranes to function-targeted design of tribological surfaces and the translation of natural auditory coding strategies.
Proceedings of Malaysian International Tribology Conference 2015
This ebook is a compilation of papers presented at the Malaysian International Tribology Conference 2015 (MITC2015) - Penang, Malaysia on 16 ~ 17 November 2015.
Shape Casting
This collection presents papers on the science, engineering, and technology of shape castings, with contributions from researchers worldwide. Among the topics that are addressed are structure-property-performance relationships, modeling of casting processes, and the effect of casting defects on the mechanical properties of cast alloys.
Machines Advances and Trends in Non-conventional, Abrasive and Precision Machining
The work included in this book pertains to advanced abrasive and nonconventional machining processes. These processes are at the forefront of modern technology, with significant practical significance. Their importance is also made clear by the case studies that are included in the research that is presented in the book, pertaining to important materials and high-end applications. However, the particularities of these manufacturing processes need to be further investigated and the processes themselves need to be optimized. This is conducted in the presented works with significant experimental and modeling work, incorporating modern tools of analysis and measurements.
Tribology & Design
The Tribology and Design Conference explores the role of technology and design in the broader sense. It brings together colleagues from different disciplines interested in problems of surface interaction and design. The applications covered range from geomechanics to nano problems and from sustainability issues to advanced materials. It has never been so important for the designer to consider product and system durability in relation to reliability and sustainability issues. The topics for discussion also cover studies of tribology in nature and how the resulting lessons can be applied by the designers. Another important theme is the application of tribology in biomechanics, a field in which surface mechanics in general is of fundamental importance. This book contains the papers presented at the Third International Conference, arranged into the following subject areas: Design Tools; Test Methods; Surface Engineering; Tribology under Extreme Conditions; Surface Measurements & Lubrication.
Transdisciplinarity and the Future of Engineering
This book presents the proceedings of TE2022, the 29th ISTE International Conference on Transdisciplinary Engineering, held at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Cambridge, United States, from 5 – 8 July 2022. Transdisciplinary engineering is the exchange of knowledge in the context of an innovation, in product, process, organisation or social environment. ISTE aims to explore and promote the evolution of engineering to incorporate transdisciplinary practices in which the exchange of different types of knowledge from a diverse range of disciplines is fundamental. The theme for the TE2022 conference is the future of engineering, and the 75 papers included here, which have all undergone a rigorous peer-review process, cover a wide range of topics and are grouped under 10 headings: Requirements, Knowledge and Architecture in Engineering; Case Studies; Energy, Environment, and Sustainability; Engineering Teamwork; Digital Engineering; imulation, Optimization, and Analytics; Manufacturing; Policy, Decisions, and Innovation; Engineering Education; Research on TE. The book will be of interest to all those working in the field of engineering today.
Springer Handbook of Additive Manufacturing
This Handbook is the ultimate definitive guide that covers key fundamentals and advanced applications for Additive Manufacturing. The Handbook has been structured into seven sections, comprising of a thorough Introduction to Additive Manufacturing; Design and Data; Processes; Materials; Post-processing, Testing and Inspection; Education and Training; and Applications and Case Study Examples. The general principles and functional relationships are described in each chapter and supplemented with industry use cases. The aim of this book is to help designers, engineers and manufacturers understand the state-of-the-art developments in the field of Additive Manufacturing. Although this book is primarily aimed at students and educators, it will appeal to researchers and industrial professionals working with technology users, machine or component manufacturers to help them make better decisions in the implementation of Additive Manufacturing and its applications.
