Description: Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS).
This volume is aimed particularly at all manufacturing engineers working in the title fields. This collection of peer-reviewed contributions covering the most recent advances and innovative trends in Materials Processing Technologies (MPT) should be required reading material for anyone operating in the industry.

Description: The present volume comprises peer-reviewed papers covering engineering/product/industrial design, manufacture and production, engineering materials, CAD/CAM/CAE, robotics, automation and control, sustainable technology , environment-friendly design and manufacture, web/internet technologies, artificial intelligence and smart computing in design and manufacture, enterprise management and other related topics. The content will be of great interest to production and research engineers, research students and academics.

Description: Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters BCI (WoS).
Engineering design, whether applied to components, products, systems or processes, involves the development and application of technology and scientific knowledge to a complex multidisciplinary innovation process. Research in design methodology involves both the development of new engineering design methods and the study of the science of design methods and design practice. The present 18 peer-reviewed papers gather together the latest knowledge related to the “Innovating Processes” title of the volume.

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: Materials processing is an important and essential step in the production of useful products, and is one of the major wealth-generating activities. With the increasing demand for the production of high precision, high integrity and high density devices and systems in modern life, materials processing has become more important than ever before. Following on from the previous eight publications in the series, “Asia-Pacific Conference on Materials Processing”, this volume presents the latest developments in this field, and a new understanding of the underlying mechanisms.

Description: Integrated manufacturing of lightweight components is of increasing importance for production engineering in today’s industrial climate. Due to the market’s need for high geometrical flexibility, combined with small batch sizes and short production cycles, the requirements of customers are becoming increasingly stringent.
