Deformation Based Processing of Materials: Behavior, Performance, Modeling and Control focuses on deformation based process behaviors and process performance in terms of the quality of the needed shape, geometries, and the requested properties of the deformed products. In addition, modelling and simulation is covered to create an in-depth and epistemological understanding of the process. Other topics discussed include ways to efficiently reduce or avoid defects and effectively improve the quality of deformed parts. The book is ideal as a technical document, but also serves as scientific literature for engineers, scientists, academics, research students and management professionals involved in deformation based materials processing. - Covers process behaviors, such as non-uniform deformation, unstable deformation, material flow phenomena, and process performance - Includes modelling and simulation of the entire deformation process - Looks at control of the preferred deformation, undesirable material flow, avoidance and reduction of defects, and improving the dimensional accuracy, surface quality and microstructure construction of the produced products

Engineering materials, and surface engineering with the emphasis placed on novel materials with unusual properties, are the main subjects of this special collection. It gathers together the latest know-how and achievements of scientists working in the fields of functional materials, nano- and ultrafine-grained materials and coatings produced using various methods; thus rendering it an invaluable guide to the subject.

Selected, peer reviewed papers from the 18th International ESAFORM Conference on Material Forming (ESAFORM 2015), April 15-17, 2015, Graz, Austria

KEY FEATURES: The first IFAC conference and thus proceedings to be specifically devoted to this field Presents the findings of experts and practitioners from the major soft- computing themes Provides an overview of the theory and applications of intelligent control systems and signal processing Intelligent control systems and signal processing 2003 contains the selection of papers presented at the IFAC International Conference on Intelligent Control systems and Signal Processing (ICONS) 2003. The conference was sponsored by the most important organizations in the field, among them were the Institue of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE), and the Control Systems Society (CSS) This proceedings volume contains 98 papers, with three separate reviewers having reviewed all papers, Including six plenary lectures given by leading experts in the field.

This volume contains articles that were submitted to the 4th International Conference on Precision Machinery and Manufacturing Technology (ICPMMT 2019, Kenting, Taiwan, May 24-26, 2019) and present the last research results in the area of materials science and materials processing technologies. We hope this collection will be interesting and useful for many engineers and academic researchers.

Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS). These proceedings comprise the 192 papers which were presented at the Seventh Asia-Pacific Symposium on Engineering Plasticity and Its applications (AEPA2004), held on the 22nd to 26th September 2004 at Shanghai Jiaotong University, P.R.China.
