Description:

This edition collects research results and engineering solutions in materials science related to studying the mechanical properties and behaviour of elastomers, brittle polymeric material and dental implants made by 3D Printing technology. Readers will also be interested in the study of the mechanical behaviour of composite reinforced concrete beams and the simulation of the installation and jacking off a large steel grid project. The quantitative non-destructive evaluation of aircraft structures as well as the high-accuracy detection and classification of defects and deformation of metal screw heads are important for specialists in automatic technological monitoring. The results of the development and analysis of energy harvesting by the triboelectric nanogenerator and magnet-actuated piezoelectric harvester with results on error minimisation in robotic milling will be helpful to engineers in mechatronics and industrial robotics.

Description:

The 45th volume of the journal "Advanced Engineering Forum" contains peer-reviewed papers that present the engineering solutions and research results in dye-sensitized solar cell, mechanical properties of welded rail joints and designing of morphing air wing with flexure hinge, construction mechanics, assessment of effectivity of two types of biofilters in a constructed wetland for the wastewater treatment. For readers will be interesting also the results of using the bio inhibiter for corrosion prevention, the conceptual design of the high-voltage transformer for scientific and industrial applications, results of cost-reduced optimisation of the hybrid renewable energy microgrid, and the design of cloud architecture for the cyber-manufacturing systems. The professionals, students, and scientific investigators working in the various engineering fields will find this volume of value.

Description: This volume was collected from papers presented at the 2nd International Conference on Experimental and Computational Mechanic in Engineering (13-14 October 2020, Indonesia). The book provides the scientific articles as the result of the research in the field of materials in machinery and construction, metallurgy, and materials processing technologies. The book could be a reference to researchers of the particular field and practitioners for product development and mutual R&D collaboration.

Description: The volume is a collection of edited papers presented at the 18th International Conference on Fracture and Damage Mechanics (FDM 2019), which was held in Rodos Palace Hotel, Rhodes, Greece. The papers cover a wide range of topics related to fracture and damage mechanics. Studies on failure analysis, fracture mechanics, composites, micromechanics, multiscale modeling as well as probabilistic aspects, computer modeling methods, and non-linear problems are presented for a wide range of structural materials, both monolithic and composite. Studies include fatigue, corrosion, creep, dynamic fracture and durability together with damage tolerance aspects. Selected papers on multiscale and multifunctional composites have been presented together with works on structural health monitoring, remaining life assessment methodologies and predictive modeling.

Description: This edition is published by results of the 2018 International Symposium on Structural Integrity (ISSI2018, Nov. 2-5, 2018, Nanjing, China).
