Advances in Machining & Manufacturing Technology VIII
This work presents its readers with the most recent advances in the fields of machining and advanced manufacturing technology. It will be of especial valuable to production and research engineers, research students and academics. -
Advanced Powder Technology I
The 1st International Latin-American Conference on Powder Technology, attended by more than 180 participants from eleven nations, was held in Águas de Lindóia, São Paulo, Brazil, November 1997. -
Advances in Abrasive Technology VIII
This book presents a wealth of valuable up-to-date information for active researchers and engineers, and will certainly form a solid basis for any future research, in the field of abrasive technology, which is aimed at creating new and practical machine tools, systems and processes, or at identifying new characteristics. -
Microalloying in Steels
The technology of microalloying is now, at the end of the 20th century, widely accepted due to the attractive balance of properties which is achievable with the correct control of the interaction between steel chemistry and processing parameters. Microalloying is applied to a broad spectrum of products and has two main goals: to improve the mechanical properties and to save costs. -
Advances in Grinding and Abrasive Processes
The present volume contains selected papers from the 12th Grinding and Machining Conference, held in China (GMC 2003). -
Advances in Abrasive Technology VI
This book presents valuable up-to-date information for active researchers and engineers, and would certainly form a solid basis for any future research, in the field of abrasive technology, aimed at creating new and practical machine tools, systems and processes, or identifying new characteristics. -
Bioceramics 16
Since their inception, the Bioceramics meetings have provided a treasure- house of invaluable information for both scientists and clinicians in the medical field. -
Defects and Diffusion in Metals - An Annual Retrospective VIII -
This eighth volume in the series covering the latest results in the field includes nearly 700 abstracts of papers which appeared between the publication of Annual Retrospective VII (Volumes 233-234) and the end of November 2005 (allowing for vagaries of journal availability). -
Damage Assessment of Structures V
This volume presents the proceedings of the fifth in the celebrated series of biennial international conferences on the Damage Assessment of Structures (DAMAS 2003). Studies of damage evolution, location and characterization are primordial aspects of the rapidly expanding field of SHM (structural health monitoring) and are major themes in this volume. In order to analyze efficiently the data-rich information provided by monitoring and by NDE (non-destructive evaluation) techniques, it is necessary to use advanced signal-processing procedures. Therefore, a significant fraction of the present book is dedicated to the optimization of signal processing and computation methods. -
Bioceramics 15
Since their inception Bioceramics meetings have provided a treasure house of information for both scientists and clinicians in the medical field. The clinical applications are numerous, in particular in the areas of orthopaedics, maxillofacial, plastic and ocular surgery, percutaneous devices, tissue engineering and sensors. This volume in addition to research papers contributed also presents selected overviews and discussions on recent bioceramics research and trends.
