Laser Fabrication and Machining of Materials (eBook, PDF)

Beschreibung

This book covers fundamental principles and physical phenomena behind laser-based fabrication and machining processes, as well as their existing and potential applications. It provides a link between advanced materials and advanced processing and manufacturing techniques. Laser machining is an emerging area in various applications ranging from bulk machining in metal forming to micromachining and microstructuring. This book provides a comprehensive overview of the principles and applications of lasers applied to material removal processes in manufacturing, micromachining, and medial applications. The emerging field of laser assisted machining and machining using intersecting beams is also covered. The interdisciplinary approach to these topics, as well as the ranging subject matter will help prepare students and researchers for the next generation of manufacturing.

Rezensionen

From the reviews:

"Dahotre and Harimkar ... have prepared a comprehensive, well-written reference on laser machining. ... The authors have successfully balanced the principles and physics of thermal processes with sufficient applied mathematics that does not overwhelm the reader. A fair knowledge of partial differential equations with emphasis on the diffusion equation in semi-infinite domains is helpful. The book provides an up-to-date bibliography that is immensely helpful for researchers in laser fabrications, ranging from macroscales to nanoscales. ... Summing Up: Recommended. Graduate students and above." (R. N. Laoulache, CHOICE, Vol. 45 (10), June, 2008)
