This special issue contains research papers on modern technologies for obtaining and processing materials, additive technologies and technologies of welded joints, computer technologies for engineering tasks in materials science. The book is intended for a wide range of specialists engaged in the development and production of heavy-duty metal structures, as well as students, undergraduates, graduate and postgraduate students of technical colleges and universities.

Description:

This volume contains articles which were presented at the 2nd International Symposium on Advanced Material Research (2nd ISAMR 2018, Jeju Island, South Korea, March 16-18, 2018). Published articles cover research results in the area of the materials science and materials processing technologies in the various branches of the modern industry. We hope that this edition will be interesting and useful for many engineers, academics and also for students.

Description: The goal of this book is to present for readers the articles from the 11th International Symposium on the Science and Processing of Cast Iron that was held in September 2017 in Jönköping, Sweden. The content of the book reflects the state of the art, research and development tendencies of cast iron as the main engineering cast material also in the 21st century.

Description: This collection of papers by the results of the 2017 International Conference on Silicon Carbide and Related Materials (ICSCRM 2017, September 17-22 in Washington, DC, USA) presents for readers the latest progress in the field of development and production of silicon carbide semiconductors and their application in the power electronic devices.

Description: Structural materials is a hot research branch in the field of material science. In light of the fast-paced development of structural materials, it is of interest to keep an eye on the state-of-the-art research and development and to facilitate collaboration in multidisciplinary research areas. With this end in view was held 2017 2nd International Conference on Frontiers of Composite Materials (2nd ICFCM 2017) in Melbourne, Australia during November 15-17, 2017.

Description:

This collection contains peer-reviewed selected papers from the 18th International Symposium on Eco-Materials Processing and Design (18th ISEPD 2017, February 17-20, 2017, Okinawa, Japan) and covers wide range of research results in the area of materials development and materials processing technologies, including environmentally-friendly and energy saving processes, advanced nano-, hybrid-, porous- and biomaterials, functional ceramics, materials for fuel cells as well as for catalysis and adsorption processes, steel, alloys, electrical insulating materials, etc.

Description: This book is based on the results of 2018 Spring International Conference on Material Sciences and Technology (MST-S, April 23-25, 2018, Guilin, China) and presents readers with the results of scientific researches and engineering solutions in the area of materials science and materials processing technologies.

Description: This special volume includes the papers presented at the First Asia Pacific Symposium on Technology of Plasticity (APSTP 2017, National Chung Hsing University, Taichung, Taiwan, November 22-25, 2017) and covers the results of research and development in the area of the metal plasticity, metal forming processes and related technologies.

Description:

The present publication arises as a result of the cooperation between the Institute of Production Technologies (IPT), belonging to the Faculty of Materials Science and Technology (MTF) of the Slovak University of Technology (STU) and TRANS TECH PUBLICATIONS INC. For the fifth time, the book aims at publishing scientific achievements on the Materials Science and Production Technologies fields, as well as at enhancing the worldwide cooperation and recognition among young and senior academicians and/or practitioners. Some of the main topics included in the book are those related but not limited to the trends in Materials Science and their application in industry, e.g.: composites and biomaterials, polymers, materials weldability, analysis of metals and alloys, numerical analyses and simulation of materials, etc. Most of these topics keep a direct relation to the production technologies and systems and thus, always keeping a special focus on the materials used, there are also topics in the book addressing key production processes, technologies and systems.
