Computational Techniques and Smart Manufacturing

Beschreibung

This book delves into theoretical foundations as well as practical applications of emerging technologies shaping Industry 4.0 to explore the integration of modern computational methods with advanced manufacturing processes. This book explores key areas where computational techniques significantly enhance manufacturing performance, including finite element analysis (FEA), computational fluid dynamics (CFD), design optimization, machine learning, and digital twins. It addresses applications in advances in manufacturing, machining, welding, casting, and forming processes. Case studies demonstrate how simulation-based design reduces trial-and-error in process development, while optimization algorithms improve dimensional accuracy, surface quality, and energy efficiency. Chapters also cover the role of AI in predictive maintenance, process control, and real-time decision-making. This is a vital resource for researchers, academicians, industry professionals, and students working in the fields of computational techniques, smart materials, automation, and advanced manufacturing.
