Frontiers of Manufacturing and Design Science

Review from Ringgold Inc., ProtoView: The preface states that the 2010 conference with the acronym ICFMD was held in the interests of promoting "the development of design and manufacturing science, strengthening the international academic cooperation and communications, and exchanging research ideas." Approximately 800 papers (selected from 1,800-plus submissions) are presented in four volumes devoted to the broad themes of manufacturing science, design science, mechanics and materials, and automation and information. A sampling of topics: development of a monitoring and control system for laser remanufacturing, product color intelligent planning method based on multi-emotion, research on NC technology for high speed milling, human factors assessment based on the technology of human motion capturing, and a new design of RF tag location and recognition, among many other topics. A keyword index is included.
