Selected, peer reviewed papers from the International Conference on Advances in Materials and Processing Technologies (AMPT), 26-29 October, 2009
The main objective of the book is to expose readers to the basics of sustainable material forming and joining technologies, and to discuss the relationship between conventional and sustainable processes. It also provides case studies for sustainable issues in material forming and joining processes, workouts for converting conventional processes to green processes, and highlights the importance of awareness on sustainable and green manufacturing through education. The book will include green and sustainability concepts in material forming like bulk forming and sheet forming emphasizing hot forming, materials development, lubrication, and minimizing defects. Key Features Conceptualizes green and sustainability issues towards efficient material forming and joining Addresses important aspects of sustainable manufacturing by forming operations Presents comparison between traditional and sustainable manufacturing processes Includes practical case studies from industry experts Discusses green and sustainability concepts in material forming like bulk forming and sheet forming emphasizing hot forming, materials development, lubrication, and minimizing defects
Selected papers from the 2009 International Conference on Manufacturing Science and Engineering (ICMSE 2009), 26-28 December, 2009, Zhuhai, China
Superplastic forming (SPF) has come a long way from its relatively recent history of being of interest only to the aerospace and aeronautical industries, and has made rapid inroads into applications in the automotive, rail, architectural, sports, dental and entertainment sectors. This book comprises 82 papers which describe in detail the latest developments in the field. All aspects of the subject are covered, ranging from the atomistic simulation of grain-boundary sliding to the industrial-scale application of superplasticity and of diffusion bonding. This volume therefore represents an invaluable guide to the state-of-the-art in this field.
Interest in the phenomenon of superplasticity has been increasing steadily over the past thirty-four years, both from the viewpoint of fundamental scientific understanding as well as of industrial application. The scope of superplasticity has also broadened materials-wise, and now includes, in addition to metals: intermetallics, ceramics, bulk metallic glasses, nanostructured materials and composites.
