During the past decade, digital manufacturing science and technology have experienced very rapid development. These have not only provided industry with new methods, new tools and new digitalized products - which have transformed everything from design, materials processing to operational and management procedures - but are also changing the intercommunications, modes of thought and working environments of everybody in the manufacturing field. Digital manufacturing has brought remarkable and fundamental improvements to manufacturing industry and related research.

Description: Functionally Graded Materials (FGMs) are multifunctional materials which exhibit spatial variations in composition and microstructure; created for the specific purpose of achieving variations in thermal, structural or functional properties. They are presently at the forefront of materials research and are receiving worldwide attention. They enjoy a broad range of application; including, for example, biomechanical, automotive, aerospace, mechanical, civil, nuclear and naval engineering. New applications are continually being discovered and developed.
