Smart Devices and Machines for Advanced Manufacturing

Buy
Manufacturing has been one of the key areas that support and influence a nation’s economy since the 18th century. Being the primary driving force in economic growth, manufacturing constantly serves as the foundation of and contributes to other industries. In the past centuries, manufacturing has contributed to the modern civilisation and created momentum that is continuously driving today’s economy. Despite various revolutionary changes and innovations in the 20th century that contributed to manufacturing advancements, we are facing new challenges when striving to achieve greater success in winning global competitions.

Machines and robots, as the constituent components in manufacturing, have contributed significantly to the success of advanced manufacturing. After evolving from the initial mechanisation era where mechanical devices were created to replace human labours to the later automation era where control devices were invented to replace human operations, the history of machines has now entered into the modern era of autonomisation where intelligent devices are being developed in an attempt to eventually replace human decision making. While machines are becoming more and more intelligent through integration with new technologies including sensors, controls, computers and even the Internet, machine structures and theories have also advanced, most noticeably in the area of parallel kinematic machines and micro machines. Although the research and development efforts in these areas have been translated into technical publications and impacted the present and future practices in manufacturing, there exists a gap in the literature for a focused collection of works that are dedicated to the design and development of smart devices and machines for advanced manufacturing. The purpose of this book is to provide a snapshot of the state-of-the-art research and development in these areas with a focus on applications to the advanced manufacturing. The book materials are collected for a broad readership from academic researchers to practicing engineers for knowledge dissemination, which is the primary objective of this book.

Configuring Sonicwall Firewalls
Configuring Sonicwall Firewalls
Every enterprise requires at least one firewall to provide the backbone for its network
security architecture. Firewalls are the core component of your network’s security.
The risks today have greatly increased, so the call for a stronger breed of firewall
has been made. In the past, simple packet-filtering firewalls allowing

EMI-Resilient Amplifier Circuits (Analog Circuits and Signal Processing)
EMI-Resilient Amplifier Circuits (Analog Circuits and Signal Processing)

This book enables circuit designers to reduce the errors introduced by the fundamental limitations (noise, bandwith, and signal power) and electromagnetic interference (EMI) in negative-feedback amplifiers.  The authors describe a systematic design approach for application specific negative-feedback amplifiers, with specified...


Neuroscientific Foundations of Anesthesiology
Neuroscientific Foundations of Anesthesiology

Although the perioperative care of patients by anesthesiologists draws on diverse clinical skills, the principles of anesthesiology and pain management are rooted in the neurosciences. The Neuroscientific Foundations of Anesthesiology thoroughly examines the anesthetic modulation of the central, peripheral, and autonomic nervous...
