This book reports on cutting-edge research and technologies in the field of advanced manufacturing and materials, with a special emphasis on unconventional machining process, rapid prototyping and biomaterials. It gathers contributions to the International Conference on Manufacturing Engineering and Materials (ICMEM 2020), which was originally planned in June 2020, but will actually take place in 2021, in Nový Smokovec, Slovakia, because of the Covid-19 pandemic. Despite the challenging times, submitted contributions were peer-reviewed, and upon a careful revision, included in this book, which covers advances that are expected to increase the industry’s competitiveness with regard to sustainable development and preservation of the environment and natural resources. Condition monitoring, industrial automation, and diverse fabrication processes such as welding, casting and molding, as well as tribology and bioengineering, are just a few of the topics discussed in the book’s wealth of authoritative contributions. A special emphasis is given to problems connected to climate change and solution manufacturer and engineers may adopt and develop to prevent and cope with them.

Exploring the development of multidisciplinary methods and tools to support the integration of technology, organization and people, this volume contains papers presented at the 4th Conference on Human Aspects of Advanced Manufacturing and Hybrid Automation, held in Manchester in July 1994.

This book comprises select proceedings of the International Conference on Futuristic Trends in Materials and Manufacturing (ICFTMM) 2019. It covers latest findings and challenges in manufacturing processes and characterization of different advanced materials. Latest fabrication techniques of polymer based materials, biomaterials, and energy materials along with their practical applications are discussed. The contents also focus on cost-effective and energy-efficient sustainable and green manufacturing technologies. The contents of this book will be useful for students, researchers as well as industry professionals interested in characterization and fabrication of materials.

Production, new materials development, and mechanics are the central subjects of modern industry and advanced science. With a very broad reach across several different disciplines, selecting the most forward-thinking research to review can be a hefty task, especially for study in niche applications that receive little coverage. For those subjects, collecting the research available is of utmost importance. The Handbook of Research on Advancements in Manufacturing, Materials, and Mechanical Engineering is an essential reference source that examines emerging obstacles in these fields of engineering and the methods and tools used to find solutions. Featuring coverage of a broad range of topics including fabricating procedures, automated control, and material selection, this book is ideally designed for academics; tribology and materials researchers; mechanical, physics, and materials engineers; professionals in related industries; scientists; and students.

Agility has become very important for the industries today as the lifetimes of the products are continuously shrinking. This book provides an excellent opportunity for updating understanding of agile methods from the design, manufacturing and business process perspectives, whether one is an industrial practitioner, academic researcher engineer or business graduate student. This volume is a compilation of various important aspects of agility consisting of systemic considerations in manufacturing, agile software systems, agile business systems, agile operations research, flexible manufacturing systems, advanced manufacturing systems with improved materials and mechanical behavior of products, agile aspects of design, clean and green manufacturing systems, environment, agile defence systems.

This book offers a timely snapshot of innovative research and developments at the interface between manufacturing, materials and mechanical engineering, and quality assurance. It covers various manufacturing processes, such as grinding, boring, milling, broaching, coatings, including additive manufacturing. It focuses on cutting, abrasive, stamping-drawing processes, shot peening, and complex treatment. It describes temperature distribution, twisting deformation, defect formation process, failure analysis, as well as the convective heat exchange and non-uniform nanocapillary fluid cooling, highlighting the growing role of quality control, integrated management systems, and economic efficiency evaluation. It also covers vibration damping, dynamic behavior, failure probability, and strength performance methods for aviation, heterogeneous, permeable porous, and other types of materials. Gathering the best papers presented at the 4th Grabchenko’s International Conference on Advanced Manufacturing Processes (InterPartner-2022), held in Odessa, Ukraine, on September 6–9, 2022, this book offers a timely overview and extensive information on trends and technologies in manufacturing, mechanical, and materials engineering, and quality assurance. It is also intended to facilitate communication and collaboration between different groups working on similar topics and to offer a bridge between academic and industrial researchers.
