Advances in Manufacturing for Aerospace Alloys

Advances in Manufacturing for Aerospace Alloys focuses on advanced manufacturing operations and processes related to aerospace alloys. It examines traditional manufacturing methods often insufficient for shaping aerospace alloys and the adoption of nonconventional manufacturing techniques for these materials, such as additive manufacturing, laser welding, electrical discharge machining, and vibration assisted machining. The combination of theoretical aspects with practical applications makes this book a critical reference on state-of-the-art techniques and an instructional resource for practicing researchers and engineers, offering straightforward descriptions of manufacturing processes coupled with industry examples and case studies. Focuses exclusively on manufacturing processes and aerospace materials Covers theoretical aspects and practical applications Includes industry examples and case studies (Provided by Publisher).

Information Technologies in the Design of Aerospace Engineering

This book proposes a solution to the problem of incorrect use of automation tools to perform complex design work. Currently, a large number of start-up projects are non-professional design bureaus that show a huge amount of their achievements. In reality, most of these achievements burst like soap bubbles. This is due to the low-quality and inefficient use of information technology in this industry. The book highlights advanced information technologies in the fields of design, machine learning, and computer vision (Provided by Publisher).

Fundamentals of Aeroelasticity

This textbook provides the fundamentals of aeroelasticity, with particular attention to problems of interest to aeronautical engineering. The mathematical methods and tools applicable to the modern modelling of general aeroelastic problems are presented, discussed, and applied to fixed-wing aircraft configurations. It is composed of ten chapters divided into two parts: (I) aeroelastic modelling and analysis and (ii) mathematical tools. The six chapters that compose the first part start from the historical background of the discipline, then present the methods for coupling structural dynamics and unsteady aerodynamics for the aeroelastic modelling of the typical wing section, and then extend them to applications for twisted, tapered, swept finite-wing configurations. In this context, particular attention is paid to the presentation, interpretation, and discussion of the available unsteady sectional aerodynamic theories, both in the time and frequency domain, providing a broad scenario of the formulations that can be used for conventional and non-conventional aerodynamic/aeroelastic applications. For a modern view of aeroelasticity, a significant portion of the textbook deals with illustration and discussion of three-dimensional aerodynamic theories and computational methods for the determination of unsteady aerodynamic loads over lifting bodies in incompressible and compressible flows, as well as to the introduction and explanation of methodologies for the identification of reduced-order, state-space aerodynamic/aeroelastic operators suitable for stability (flutter) analysis and control purposes. A chapter is dedicated to the theories and approaches for aeroservoelastic modeling. In the second part of the textbook, additional chapters provide theoretical insights on topics that enrich the multidisciplinary knowledge related to widely applied methods and models for the analysis and solution of aeroelastic problems. The book serves as a reference tool for master's degree students in aeronautical/aerospace engineering, as well as researchers in the field of aeroelasticity (Provided by Publisher).

Streamlining Your Research Laboratory with Python

Streamlining Your Research Laboratory with Python covers the Python programming language and its ecosystem of tools applied to tasks encountered by laboratory scientists and technicians working in the life sciences. After opening with the basics of Python, the chapters move through working with and analysing data, generating reports, and automating the lab environment.
The book includes example processes within chapters and code listings on nearly every page along with schematics and plots that can clearly illustrate Python at work in the lab. The book also explores some real-world examples of Python’s application in research settings, demonstrating its potential to streamline processes, improve productivity, and foster innovation. (Provided by Publisher.)
