Advances In Mechanical Design

Focusing on innovation, these proceedings present recent advances in the field of mechanical design in China and offer researchers, scholars and scientists an international platform for presenting their research findings and exchanging ideas. Gathering outstanding papers from the 2019 International Conference on Mechanical Design (2019 ICMD) and the 20th Mechanical Design Annual Conference, the content is divided into six major sections: industrial design, reliability design, green design, intelligent design, bionic design and innovative design. Readers will learn about the latest trends, cutting-edge findings and hot topics in the field of design.

This book presents select proceedings of the International Conference on Future Learning Aspects of Mechanical Engineering (FLAME 2018). The book covers mechanical design areas such as computational mechanics, finite element modeling, computer aided designing, tribology, fracture mechanics, and vibration. The book brings together different aspects of engineering design, and will be useful for researchers and professionals working in this field.

The International Conference on Mechanical Design and Production has over the years established itself as an excellent forum for the exchange of ideas in these established fields. The first of these conferences was held in 1979. The seventh, and most recent, conference in the series was held in Cairo during February 15-17, 2000. International engineers and scientists gathered to exchange experiences and highlight the state-of-the-art research in the fields of mechanical design and production. In addition a heavy emphasis was placed on the issue of technology transfer. Over 100 papers were accepted for presentation at the conference. Current Advances in Mechanical Design & Production VII does not, however, attempt to publish the complete work presented but instead offers a sample that represents the quality and breadth of both the work and the conference. Ten invited papers and 54 ordinary papers have been selected for inclusion in these proceedings. They cover a range of basic and applied topics that can be classified into six main categories: System Dynamics, Solid Mechanics, Material Science, Manufacturing Processes, Design and Tribology, and Industrial Engineering and its Applications.

This book provides engineers and students with a general framework focusing on the processes of designing new engineering products. The procedures covered by the framework lead the reader to the best trade-offs to ensure maximum satisfaction of the customer’s needs, meeting the lowest cost expectations, ensuring the lowest environmental impact and maximising profits and best positioning in the marketplace. Chapters discuss the engineering tools that are compatible with these goals and sustainable activity. The design process is defined in terms of operators acting over the information space The information content is defined as a difference of entropies Creation and destruction of entropy are defined as procedures of the design process

This book contains the papers presented at the International Joint Conference on Mechanics, Design Engineering and Advanced Manufacturing (JCM 2018), held on 20-22 June 2018 in Cartagena, Spain. It reports on cutting-edge topics in product design and manufacturing, such as industrial methods for integrated product and process design; innovative design; and computer-aided design. Further topics covered include virtual simulation and reverse engineering; additive manufacturing; product manufacturing; engineering methods in medicine and education; representation techniques; and nautical, aeronautics and aerospace design and modeling. The book is divided into six main sections, reflecting the focus and primary themes of the conference. The contributions presented here will not only provide researchers, engineers and experts in a range of industrial engineering subfields with extensive information to support their daily work; they are also intended to stimulate new research directions, advanced applications of the methods discussed, and future interdisciplinary collaborations.

This book presents selected peer-reviewed papers presented at the International Conference on Innovative Technologies in Mechanical Engineering (ITME) 2019. The book discusses a wide range of topics in mechanical engineering such as mechanical systems, materials engineering, micro-machining, renewable energy, systems engineering, thermal engineering, additive manufacturing, automotive technologies, rapid prototyping, computer aided design and manufacturing. This book, in addition to assisting students and researchers working in various areas of mechanical engineering, can also be useful to researchers and professionals working in various allied and interdisciplinary fields.

This book reports on recent findings and applications relating to structure modeling and computation, design methodology, advanced manufacturing, mechanical behavior of materials, fluid mechanics, energy, and heat transfer. Further, it highlights cutting-edge issues in biomechanics and mechanobiology, and describes simulation and intelligent techniques applied to the control of industrial processes. Chapters are based on a selection of original peer-reviewed papers presented at the 5th International Tunisian Congress on Mechanics, COTUME, which was held on March 22–24, 2021, from Hammamet, Tunisia, in hybrid format. All in all, the book offers a good balance of fundamental research and industrially relevant applications, and an in-depth analysis of the current state of the art and challenges in various subfields of mechanical engineering; it provides researchers and professionals with a timely snapshot and a source of inspiration for future research and collaborations.
