The modelling of Machining Operations has become very widespread today, with many researchers developing models with which to predict metal-cutting performance. The aim here is to provide an answer to the challenges presented by the machining industry, which is presently facing very tight economical and environmental constraints. The collection of over 100 peer-reviewed papers covers twelve research topics, including: “Analytical and Numerical Modelling”; “Cutting Fundamentals: Input Parameters”; “Cutting Fundamentals: Experimental Validation”; “Surface Integrity”; “Surface Topography”; “Tool Wear and Tool Life”; “Dynamics and Stability”; “High-Speed Machining and 5-Axes Machining”; “Abrasive Machining”; “Ultra-Precision and Micromachining”; “Computer-Aided Manufacturing (CAM)”; “Experimental: Non-Conventional Machining”. This work will thus constitute an invaluable handbook on the subject.

The primary goal of this special collection is to communicate the latest progress and research results concerning new theories, technologies, methods, equipment and so on, in the field of advanced manufacturing technology, and to explore the updated technological and research trends driving international communications and cooperation with respect to production, education and research in this field.
The major topics covered include: Innovation and Experience in Manufacturing Systems and Technologies, Materials Science and Technology in Manufacturing and Administrative Skills in Advanced Manufacturing etc. It thus constitutes a useful and timely guide to the subject.

Description: This collection comprises selected papers from the 3 rd International Congress on Energy and Environment Engineering and Management. Each Congress provides an opportunity for academics, scientific consultants and companies to share days of interaction that permit the free interchange of experience and, at the same time, create and renew links between different work-groups. This Congress included a total of six thematic areas, covering a broad spectrum within the applications associated with environmental engineering, energy installations, renewable energy, electromechanics, materials and project engineering. The contents therefore provide a handy introduction to the subject.
