Description: Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS).
This special volume covers all aspects of extrusion in the world of today: from innovative tools for die design to a deep analysis of the extrusion defects that still afflict most extruders and users around the world. The papers are grouped into the categories of: benchmarking, process optimization and innovation, material flow and friction, dies and tooling, seam welds and microstructures. It is expected that this book will become a source of invaluable information which will aid the everyday work of scientific and industrial researchers, engineers and students.

Description: This work’s contents were subjected to strict peer-review by experts, and describe the latest advances and applications in the fields of surface engineering/coatings, modeling, analysis and simulation of manufacturing processes, materials forming/machining/joining, mechanical behavior and fracture, tooling testing and evaluation of materials.

This special collection focuses on ongoing research topics concerning the light metals aluminum, magnesium and titanium; as well as some of their compounds. Scientific aspects, such as their mechanical properties, corrosion resistance, processing innovations, and also their current applications in the aerospace, automotive or medical fields are discussed. Sociological questions such as environmental challenges and implementation are also focused upon. Finally, computational materials science methods complete this thorough coverage of the light metals.

Original contributions to the experimental, analytical and numerical modelling of processes related to advanced materials. Research work may investigate the interactions between the manufacture (machining, forming …) and behaviour or structures of advanced materials. For damage analysis using non-destructive testing (NDT), new measurement techniques, with or without contact, and the development of new means of process control are always welcome. Improvements in the integrity of structures, cost reduction in manufacturing and increases in productivity lead, for instance, to the substitution of welding and bonding processes for mechanical assembly processes. The present-day challenge is to design and process high-quality welded and bonded joints in order to enhance the durability of assemblies. This work should thus be read by anyone wishing to keep up with the field.

Description: This special collection concentrates on three basic topics, the 35 peer-reviewed papers being grouped into: 1. Grain Boundary Diffusion, Segregation and Stresses, 2. Bulk Diffusion and Phase Formation and 3. Diffusion-Controlled Processes. It provides succinct and timely coverage of these topics.

The 200 peer-reviewed articles in this “Nanomaterials by Severe Plastic Deformation” special collection are a convincing demonstration of the relevance of bulk ultrafine grained and nanostructured materials, produced by severe plastic deformation, to a wide range of researchers and engineers., The total number of articles in this edition, larger than that in the 2008 edition, shows that this community is, in fact, growing. The coverage includes all aspects of NanoSPD: Principles of SPD Processing, Microstructural Evolution and Grain Refinement, Mechanical Properties of SPD Materials, Functional and other Properties of SPD Materials, Innovation and Applications.
