Description: Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters BCI (WoS).
The present volume comprises peer-reviewed papers covering CIMS and manufacturing systems, advanced anti-fatigue design technologies, finite-element analysis and structure optimization based upon anti-fatigue, design and manufacturing of composite components, intelligent mechatronics and robotics, compound machine tools, rapid prototyping, printing (ex. embossing), PDM, ERP, CRM, FMS, PLM, logistics and supply chain, RPM and other related topics. This work will be invaluable to production and research engineers, and to research students and academics interested in the field.

Polymers in Concrete

Edited by: José Aguiar and Lech Czarnecki

Online since: January 2011

Description: Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters BCI (WoS).
The field of “polymers in concrete” is rather well consolidated within the construction industry, and its future will be one of benefiting fully from the synergy between the organic and mineral materials. Concrete-polymer composites (C-PC) exhibit excellent adhesion strength and durability in aggressive environments and the good performance of these materials makes innovative applications possible; including new technologies for restoring and renovating buildings.

Advanced Ceramic Tools for Machining Application - III

Edited by: I.M. Low

Online since: September 1997

Description: Recent advances in ceramic science and technology have given rise to a new generation of high-performance ceramic cutting-tools which have an improved strength, hardness, toughness, wear resistance, thermal shock resistance and creep strength. These advances have resulted in better workpiece quality, improved tool-life or reliability, lower production costs, improved productivity, and have facilitated the machining of new or special alloys.
