Modeling and Optimization in Manufacturing

Discover the state-of-the-art inmultiscale modeling and optimization in manufacturing from two leading voices in the field Modeling and Optimization in Manufacturingdeliversa comprehensive approach to various manufacturing processes and shows readers how multiscale modeling and optimization processes help improve upon them.The book elaborates on the foundations and applications of computational modeling and optimization processes, as well asrecent developments in the field. It offers discussions of manufacturing processes, including forming, machining, casting, joining, coating, and additive manufacturing, and how computer simulations have influenced their development. Examples for each category of manufacturing are provided in the text, and industrial applications are described for the reader. The distinguished authors also provide an insightfulperspective on likely future trends and developments in manufacturing modeling and optimization, including the use of large materials databases and machine learning.Readers will also benefit from the inclusion of: A thorough introduction tothe origins of manufacturing, the history of traditional and advanced manufacturing, and recent progress in manufacturing An exploration ofadvanced manufacturing and the environmental impact and significance of manufacturing Practical discussions ofthe economic importanceof advanced manufacturing An examination ofthe sustainability of advanced manufacturing, and developing and future trends in manufacturing Perfect for materials scientists, mechanical engineers, and process engineers,Modeling and Optimization in Manufacturingwill also earn a place in the libraries ofengineering scientists inindustries seeking a one-stop reference on multiscale modeling and optimization in manufacturing.
