Books by Keyword: Extrusion

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 special collection provided an outlet for researchers to present the newest advances, scientific findings and technological developments in the field of eco-materials processing and design. The object to survey the current state-of-the-art and to foresee future trends in the field of eco-materials processing and design for energy, environment and related materials. Many fruitful and exciting research achievements were presented, both as fundamental topics and as applications such as solar sustainable energy, fuel-cells, photochemistry, porous materials, biomass, and bio-inspired technologies for improving microstructures and bulk properties.

The aim of this special collection was to provide an opportunity for companies, academic institutions and government research agencies to share, in a collaborative manner, their new research and development work.The main focus was light metals and their applications.
It is to be noted that there was a significant number of papers related to titanium research: due to the extended range of applications of titanium components and the growth in end-user demands for affordable manufacturing. As a result, the collection is truly representative of the three light metals: aluminium, magnesium and titanium; with a similar number of papers concerning each metal.

Description: The world market’s increasing demands for lightweight constructions as a means of reducing fuel consumption in transportation systems, together with shrinking materials resources, are becoming factors of major importance. These aspects are further underlined by current efforts aimed at reducing the greenhouse-gas emissions caused by production processes. In this context, considerate use of energy-intensive materials, such as aluminum, plays a major role.

Magnesium, with its very rich reserves within the Earth, is an important engineering material, but has not yet been fully developed and utilized. Given its low density, magnesium has a higher specific strength and stiffness than many other engineering materials: including aluminum, steel and polymer-based composites. Magnesium also offers other attractive properties: such as a high damping capacity, electromagnetic shielding, dimensional stability, and good machinability and recyclability. As a relatively new structural material, magnesium and its alloys have demonstrated a significant potential for applications in many industries: including automobile, 3C (computer, communication and consumer) products, transportation, power-tools/equipment and new energy sources.
