Though the developments in the field of electronics and digital industries are significant, the importance of the basic mechanical industry remains always on the top side. The purpose of this book is to present some advanced research studies on mechanical design, materials and manufacturing. The first chapter presents an analysis of a novel force transducer which has a special shape that allows strategic placement of the strain gauges and senses axial forces by ignoring the moments. The second chapter explains the basic principle of calculation and analysis of the defective structure of solids. The third most interesting chapter presents advanced methods used in molecular dynamics simulation of macromolecules. Chapter Four explores an extended method of mathematical modelling of Freudenstein-Chebyshev approximation theory for sigmoidal function applied to four and five precision points. Chapter Five presents an algorithm to find the transfer vertex of a given epicyclic gear train. In the sixth chapter, an analytical study (using ABAQUS/CAE) on the strengthening of the beam-column joint under seismic conditions using carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) sheets has been carried out. Chapter Seven discusses preparation, properties and applications of nanomterials, ceramics and bioceramics. Chapter Eight discusses the fluorescence of atomic hydrogen in aqueous media. Chapter Nine presents a methodology to design, develop and simulate a twin spindle turning special purpose machine based on the data collected from hydraulic, pneumatic, and electro pneumatic data which will serve as low cost automation. The last chapter is about the estimation of axial force in incremental sheet metal forming.

Currently, manufacturing engineering assumes a great importance to industrialised countries (G7) and countries with emerging economies (BRICS). Manufacturing engineering is a discipline of engineering dealing with different manufacturing practices and the research and development of systems, processes, machines, tools and equipment. Manufacturing engineering is important to several advanced industries such as automotive, aeronautic, aerospace, alternative energy, moulds and dies, biomedical, etc. This book provides research and review studies on manufacturing engineering. The text can be used for final undergraduate engineering courses or as a subject on manufacturing at the postgraduate level.

A practical guide to materials and manufacturing concepts and applications Written in a straightforward, conversational style, this comprehensive textbook offers a hands-on introduction to materials science and manufacturing techniques. You will explore metallic and nonmetallic materials, their properties and applications, and how products are made from them, including traditional, additive, and advanced manufacturing methods. Materials and Manufacturing: An Introduction to How They Work and Why It Matters starts off by explaining materials science fundamentals and progresses to outline manufacturing processes in the order in which they are often employed. Coverage includes:•Metallic materials and processing•Nonmetallic materials and processing•Practical considerations in materials and manufacturing•Material structure, identification, and application•Compositional and property-based classification•Mechanical, thermal, and environmental concepts•Methods of testing materials•Sawing, broaching, filing, and abrasive machining•Milling, turning, boring, and hole making operations•Cohesive assembly through heat and chemical welding•Mechanical and adhesive assembly and finishing operations•The benefits and roles of additive and advanced manufacturing
