Proceedings Of Asean Australian Engineering Congress Aaec2022

This book presents the proceedings of the ASEAN-Australian Engineering Congress (AAEC2022), held as a virtual event, 13–15 July 2022 with the theme “Engineering Solutions in the Age of Digital Disruption”. The book presents selected papers covering scientific research in the field of Engineering Computing, Network, Communication and Cybersecurity, Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning, Materials Science & Manufacturing, Automation and Sensors, Smart Energy & Cities, Simulation & Optimisation and other Industry 4.0 related Technologies. The book appeals to researchers, academics, scientists, students, engineers and practitioners who are interested in the latest developments and applications related to addressing the Fourth Industrial Revolution (IR4.0).

Climate Adaptation Engineering defines the measures taken to reduce vulnerability and increase the resiliency of built infrastructure. This includes enhancement of design standards, structural strengthening, utilisation of new materials, and changes to inspection and maintenance regimes, etc. The book examines the known effects and relationships of climate change variables on infrastructure and risk-management policies. Rich with case studies, this resource will enable engineers to develop a long-term, self-sustained assessment capacity and more effective risk-management strategies. The book's authors also take a long-term view, dealing with several aspects of climate change. The text has been written in a style accessible to technical and non-technical readers with a focus on practical decision outcomes. Provides climate scenarios and their likelihoods, hazard modelling (wind, flood, heatwaves, etc.), infrastructure vulnerability, resilience or exposure (likelihood and extent of damage) Introduces the key concepts needed to assess the risks, costs and benefits of future proofing infrastructures in a changing climate Includes case studies authored by experts from around the world

The Light Metals series is widely recognized as the definitive source of information on new developments in aluminum production technology. This new volume presents proceedings from 2013's Light Metal Symposia, covering the latest research and technologies on such areas as alumina and bauxite, aluminum reduction technology, electrode technology for aluminum production, cast shop for aluminum production, aluminum processing aluminum alloys, and cost affordable titanium IV. It also includes papers from a keynote presentation session discussing impurities in the aluminum supply chain are also included.

Throughout the 38 chapters, this must-have volume outlines essential information about the implementation of emerging technologies, from building information modeling and 3D printing, to life cycle assessment and information technology in construction and engineering projects.It covers practical case studies to demonstrate the implementation of emerging technologies in a compact style, ensuring that practitioners can adopt these methods to realize immediate benefits in productivity, safety and performance improvement.
