Revolutionizing Surface Engineering for Green Manufacturing

Herausgeber: Vasudev, Hitesh; Bansal, Amit; Singh, Gurbhej

Beschreibung

Microwave Processing of Metallic Materials presents the adaptability and efficiency of microwave processing with interdisciplinary applications across the industrial sector. It explores a diverse variety of issues, including the production of superalloys and biomaterials, the analysis of internal structures, and the study of erosion wear behavior. Offering a comprehensive understanding of the basic concepts of microwave processing, the book illustrates its practical uses in creating materials with improved surface qualities, such as resistance to erosion and stability at high temperatures. It demonstrates how the use of microwave technology in surface engineering both enhances material performance and reduces energy consumption and environmental impact towards a sustainable future for manufacturing. The book will interest industry researchers and graduate students studying advances in materials science, surface engineering, and manufacturing.
