Intelligent Energy Field Manufacturing: Interdisciplinary Process Innovations
by Wenwu ZhangEdited by prominent researchers and with contributions from experts in their individual areas, Intelligent Energy Field Manufacturing: Interdisciplinary Process Innovations explores a new philosophy of engineering. An in-depth introduction to Intelligent Energy Field Manufacturing (EFM), this book explores a fresh engineering methodology that not only integrates but goes beyond methodologies such as Design for Six Sigma, Lean Manufacturing, Concurrent Engineering, TRIZ, green and sustainable manufacturing, and more. This book gives a systematic introduction to classic non-mechanical manufacturing processes as well as offering big pictures of some technical frontiers in modern engineering.The book suggests that any manufacturing process is actually a process of injecting human intelligence into the interaction between material and the various energy fields in order to transfer the material into desired configurations. It discusses technological innovation, dynamic M-PIE flows, the generalities of energy fields, logic functional materials and intelligence, the open scheme of intelligent EFM implementation, and the principles of intelligent EFM. The book takes a highly interdisciplinary approach that includes research frontiers such as micro/nano fabrication, high strain rate processes, laser shock forming, materials science and engineering, bioengineering, etc., in addition to a detailed treatment of the so called "non-traditional" manufacturing processes, which covers waterjet machining, laser material processing, ultrasonic material processing, EDM/ECM, etc. Filled with illustrative pictures, figures, and tables that make technical materials more absorbable, the book cuts across multiple engineering disciplines.

Intelligent Engineering Optimisation with the Bees Algorithm (Springer Series in Advanced Manufacturing)
by D. T. Pham Natalia HartonoThis book presents new and advanced results and developments related to the Bees Algorithm, along with its application to a wide range of engineering problems. Modern complex processes and systems are difficult to optimise using conventional mathematical tools as they require models that often cannot be obtained with accuracy or certainty. Optimising such systems demands efficient, model-free optimisation tools. The Bees Algorithm, a swarm-based technique inspired by the foraging behaviour of honeybees, is an ideal tool for tackling challenging optimisation problems. The algorithm is conceptually elegant and extremely easy to apply. All it needs to solve an optimisation problem is a means to evaluate the quality of potential solutions. While the covered applications belong to diverse engineering fields, this book’s focus is on advanced manufacturing and industrial engineering. The book comprises two parts. The first part explores different enhancements made to the original Bees Algorithm to improve its performance. The second part delves into the algorithm's applications in design, manufacturing, production, ergonomics, logistics, transportation, and electrical and electronic engineering. By showcasing the variety of optimisation tasks successfully handled using the Bees Algorithm, the book aims to inspire and motivate engineers and researchers worldwide to adopt the algorithm as a powerful and versatile tool for conquering complex engineering problems in the Industry 4.0 era and beyond.

Intelligent Fatigue Statistics
by Zhentong Gao Jiajin XuThis book introduces the principles and theories of fatigue statistics and presents the Zhentong Gao method along with its practical applications.Fatigue in metal components is a complex phenomenon and an important issue because the fatigue life of key components often determines the overall lifespan of the aircraft. The book provides an overview and analysis of existing fatigue life calculation and estimation methods, including probability statistical methods such as using Gaussian distribution, logarithmic Gaussian distribution, and Weibull distribution to fit actual data. However, the authors argue that these methods have limitations in terms of reliability and applicability. They point out that the location parameter of the Weibull distribution represents a safe life with 100% reliability. Based on these methods, the book proposes the intelligent Zhentong Gao method, which differs from traditional approaches and effectively addresses and solves the problem of estimating the three parameters of Weibull distribution.This title will serve as a valuable reference for researchers, senior undergraduate and graduate students, and engineers in the fields of aerospace, automotive, mechanical, civil engineering, etc.
Intelligent Fault Diagnosis and Accommodation Control (Automation and Control Engineering)
by Tong Heng Lee Kok Kiong Tan Sunan Huang Poi Voon ErControl systems include many components, such as transducers, sensors, actuators and mechanical parts. These components are required to be operated under some specific conditions. However, due to prolonged operations or harsh operating environment, the properties of these devices may degrade to an unacceptable level, causing more regular fault occurrences. It is therefore necessary to diagnose faults and provide the fault-accommodation control which compensates for the fault of the component by substituting a configuration of redundant elements so that the system continues to operate satisfactorily. In this book, we present a result of several years of work in the area of fault diagnosis and fault-accommodation control. It aims at information estimate methods when faults occur. The book uses the model built from the plant or process, to detect and isolate failures, in contrast to traditional hardware or statistical technologies dealing with failures. It presents model-based learning and design technologies for fault detection, isolation and identification as well as fault-tolerant control. These models are also used to analyse the fault detectability and isolability conditions and discuss the stability of the closed-loop system. It is intended to report new technologies in the area of fault diagnosis, covering fault analysis and control strategies of design for various applications. The book addresses four main schemes: modelling of actuator or sensor faults; fault detection and isolation; fault identification, and fault reconfiguration (accommodation) control. It also covers application issues in the monitoring control of actuators, providing several interesting case studies for more application-oriented readers.
