Advanced Materials For Emerging Applications Innovations Improvements Inclusion And Impact

Advanced Materials for Emerging Applications (Innovations, Improvements, Inclusion and Impact)

Advanced Materials for Emerging Applications is a monograph on emerging materials'; materials that have observable differences in physical properties and manufacturing requirements when compared to existing materials and industrial processes. The volume aims to showcase novel materials that can be used in advanced technology and innovative products. The editors have compiled 17 chapters grouped into 3 sections: 1) Metals and Alloys, 2) Composite materials, and 3) Other materials. Chapters 1-5 discuss recent advances in friction stir welding, suitability of nickel-base shape memory alloys, thermal cycling studies of nickel-based shape memory alloys, nitrogen additions to stainless steel, and the evolution of zirconium alloy. Chapters 6-11 cover topics such as additive manufacturing of metal matrix composites, composite materials for biomedical applications, aluminum and magnesium metal matrix composites, aluminum nanocomposites for automobile applications, enhancing the strength of aluminum-boron carbide composites, and sisal fibers reinforced composites. Lastly, chapters 13-17 explore smart hydrogels, engineered iron-oxide nanomaterials for magnetic hyperthermia, emerging sustainable material technology for fire safety, recent advances in unconventional machining of smart alloys, and critical parameters influencing high-strain rate deformation of materials. This monograph provides information for a broad readership including material and manufacturing engineers, researchers, students (at undergraduate levels or above) and entrepreneurs interested in manufacturing new products.

Innovations in Cyber Physical Systems

The book presents a collection of peer-reviewed articles from the International Conference on Innovations in Cyber Physical Systems (ICICPS 2020). The conference provided opportunities for the presentation of new research results and discussion about them. It was also an opportunity to generation of new ideas in all CPS aspects, including theory, tools, applications, systems, test-beds and field deployments. The range of topics explored is wide, and covers security, control, optimization, machine learning, game theory, mechanism design, mobile and cloud computing, model-based design, verification, data mining/analytics, signal processing, and human-in-the-loop shared or supervisory control. This book will be useful to researchers, students, industrialist, developers, and practitioners alike.
