This book presents selected papers from the International Conference on Advances in Materials Processing and Manufacturing Applications (iCADMA 2020), held on November 5–6, 2020, at Malaviya National Institute of Technology, Jaipur, India. iCADMA 2020 proceedings is divided into four topical tracks – Advanced Materials, Materials Manufacturing and Processing, Engineering Optimization and Sustainable Development, and Tribology for Industrial Application.

This book discusses advances in materials processing, especially recent trends and applications in welding, grinding, and surface treatment processes. A description of current trends in and innovative aspects of the grinding technology, grinding applications, and surface treatment processes is presented, including the grinding technological parameters, grinding machining methods, new and improved technologies of grinding, design of tools for grinding, construction and materials of grinding tools, surface treatment using grinding in adhesive technology, surface characterization after grinding, and new trends in grinding applications in various industries and other technical and technological areas. Grinding technology plays an important role in the surface finishing and surface treatment of many components. The purpose of this book is to provide information on the characteristics and applications of grinding technology. This information enables engineers, scientists, and designers to make effective use of grinding technology and surface treatment in the manufacturing process of various construction elements and the effective development of this technique.

This book presents peer reviewed articles from the 3rd International Conference on Advances in Materials Processing: Challenges and Opportunities (AMPCO 2022), held at IIT Roorkee, India. It highlights recent progress made in the fields of materials processing, advanced steel technology and materials for sustainability. The conference is also special as it is being organized on the occasion of 60 years of the department of metallurgical and materials engineering as well as 175 years of IIT Roorkee. ​

A superalloy, or high-performance alloy, is an alloy that exhibits excellent mechanical strength at high temperatures. Superalloy development has been driven primarily by the aerospace and power industries. This compilation of papers from the Twelfth International Symposium on Superalloys, held from September 9-13, 2012, offers the most recent technical information on this class of materials.

This volume contains the technical papers presented at the international symposium entitled “Processing and Fabrication of Advanced Materials VIII”, held in Singapore in 1999. This was the eighth in a series of symposia bringing together engineers and researchers from industry, academia and national laboratories, working on aspects related to the processing, fabrication and characterization of advanced materials, to present and discuss their latest findings. The proceedings also contain technical papers presented at two special symposia on biomaterials and magnesium technology.
