Advances in Manufacturing Technology

Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS).The studies presented here cover composites, micro/nano-materials and equipment, metallic alloys, steels, polymer materials, optical/electronic/magnetic materials, energy materials and new energy technology, environmentally-friendly materials and waste utilization, biomaterials and preparation technology, thin films, structural materials and earthquake-resistant structures, functional materials, surface-engineering/coatings, modeling, analysis and simulation, materials processing technology, laser-processing technology, mechanical behavior and fracture, tooling testing and evaluation of materials, thermal engineering theory and applications, detection and control technology.The first ADME conference was held in 2011 in Guangzhou, China; and the second, in 2012 in Taiyuan, China. Four volumes contain approximately 700 papers pertaining to manufacturing technology. (Papers on materials and process technology are contained in a separate set of volumes.) Arrangement is according to the following broad themes: bionic mechanisms, virtual manufacturing, and lean production; remanufacturing and digital manufacturing; system analysis and industrial engineering; production and operation management; supply chain management; advanced NC techniques and equipment; industrial equipment and engineering; mechatronics; industrial robotics and automation; machine vision; testing technology and equipment; transmission and control of fluid; mechanical control and information processing technology; sensor technology; optoelectronic information technology; signal and intelligent information processing; computer applications; biological information technology; and the Internet of things. The collection is lightly indexed by keyword and by author.
