This authoritative reference presents a comprehensive review of the evolution of plasma science and technology fundamentals over the past five decades. One of this field’s principal challenges has been its multidisciplinary nature requiring coverage of fundamental plasma physics in plasma generation, transport phenomena under high-temperature conditions, involving momentum, heat and mass transfer, and high-temperature reaction kinetics, as well as fundamentals of material science under extreme conditions. The book is structured in five distinct parts, which are presented in a reader-friendly format allowing for detailed coverage of the science base and engineering aspects of the technology including plasma generation, mathematical modeling, diagnostics, and industrial applications of thermal plasma technology. This book is an essential resource for practicing engineers, research scientists, and graduate students working in the field.
This book provides readers with the fundamentals necessary for understanding thermal spray technology. Coverage includes in-depth discussions of various thermal spray processes, feedstock materials, particle-jet interactions, and associated yet very critical topics: diagnostics, current and emerging applications, surface science, and pre and post-treatment. This book will serve as an invaluable resource as a textbook for graduate courses in the field and as an exhaustive reference for professionals involved in thermal spray technology.
This volume contains the selected papers resulting from the 7th Annual International Workshop on Materials Science and Engineering, and is focusing on the following six aspects: 1. Various Materials Properties, Processing, and Manufactures; 2. Multifunctional Materials Properties, Processing, and Manufactures; 3. Nanomaterials and Biomaterials; 4. Civil Materials and Sustainable Environment; 5. Electrochemical Valuation, Fracture Resistance, and Assessment; 6. Designs Related to Materials Science and Engineering. This proceeding presents and discusses key concepts and analyzes the state-of-the-art of the field. IWMSE 2021 is an academic conference in a series held once per year. The conference not only provides insights on materials science and engineering, but also affords conduit for future research in these fields. It provides opportunities for the delegates to exchange new ideas and application experiences, to establish business or research relations and to find global partners for future collaboration.
This book covers a variety of topics in the field of mechanical engineering, with a special focus on methods and technologies for modeling, simulation, and design of mechanical systems.
