The intensive development of engineering contributes to the emergence of new materials and technologies for their processing. This special issue contains research papers on modern technologies for creating and processing materials, welded joints, additive technologies, and engineering tasks in mechanical engineering and materials science. The book is intended for a wide range of specialists engaged in the development and production of metal structures and students, undergraduates, graduate and postgraduate students of technical colleges and universities.
This volume of journal "Materials Science Forum" was collected by results of 19th International Symposium on Advances in Abrasive Technology (ISAAT 2016, Stockholm, Sweden, October 2-5, 2016) and intended to disseminate the recent advances in both conventional and nonconventional technologies of materials removal and covers many aspects of modern scientific and engineering practice in area of materials machining. Topics include: grinding and polishing, abrasive fine-finishing, micro- and nanomachining, ultrasonic and laser machining, surface integrity and materials characterization, as well as other advanced cutting technologies and etc. This book will be useful for academics and practicing engineers in advancement of the efficient materials removal technologies for modern mechanical engineering.
Abrasive technology concerns manufacturing processes that involve the use of abrasives in various forms. It has a long history; originating right from the first discovery of minerals. With increasingly stringent requirements for the production of high-precision and high surface-quality components, in applications such as silicon wafers for the semiconductor industry and optical lenses for the precision instrument industry, abrasive technology is becoming an increasingly important factor in precision manufacturing. An understanding of the mechanisms of abrasive technology ensures the soundness and integrity of current component manufacture, as well as leading to the development of new and effective techniques.
