This unique text/reference reviews algorithms for the exact or approximate solution of shortest-path problems, with a specific focus on a class of algorithms called rubberband algorithms.
A systematic computer-aided approach provides a versatile setting for the control engineer to overcome the complications of controller design for highly nonlinear systems.
Dimensional metrology is an essential part of modern manufacturing technologies, but the basic theories and measurement methods are no longer sufficient for today's digitized systems.
Drawing on the experiences of four major EC countries, this book documents the way computer technology has changed the pattern of women's work in the manufacturing sector.
This second book in our series Artificial Intelligence and Society explores the issues involved in the design and application of human-centred systems in the manufacturing area.
It is well-known that some 85% of the resources necessary to design and bring to market a product are committed by decisions taken in the first 10% of the design activity.
Crossing the Border examines the emergence of a new philosophy based on the idea of "e;human-centred technology"e; and, through the use of a case study, illustrates the ways in which users, social scientists, managers and engineers can participate in the design and development of human-centred computer integrated manufacturing (CIM) system.
Mike Cooley One of the most remarkable features of modern industrial society, is the gap between that which technology could provide for society (its potential) and that which it actually does provide for society (its reality).
Soft Computing has emerged as an important approach towards achieving intelligent computational paradigms where key elements are learning from experience in the presence of uncertainties, fuzzy belief functioos, and *evolutioo of the computing strategies of the learning agent itself.
Machine vision systems offer great potential in a large number of areas of manufacturing industry and are used principally for Automated Visual Inspection and Robot Vision.
Soft computing embraces various methodologies for the development of intelligent systems that have been successfully applied to a large number of real-world problems.
Prior to the early 1990s the term 'evolutionary computing' (EC) would have meant little to most practising engineers unless they had a particular interest in emerging computing technologies or were part of an organisation with significant in-house research activities.
In the last decade new artificial intelligence methods for the modelling and control of complex systems, namely neural networks, fuzzy logic and probabilistic reasoning have drawn the interest of researchers and engineers.
This book highlights the critical challenge of improving the design and performance of hip implants, which are essential for enhancing patient outcomes in hip replacement surgeries.
This highly practical Guide to Geometric Algebra in Practice reviews algebraic techniques for geometrical problems in computer science and engineering, and the relationships between them.
With the increasing complexity and dynamism in today's product design and manufacturing, more optimal, robust and practical approaches and systems are needed to support product design and manufacturing activities.
The Future of Design Methodology gives a holistic overview of perspectives for design methodology, addresses trends for developing a powerful methodical support for design practice and provides a starting point for future design research.
The Adaptive Computing in Design and Manufacture Conference series is now in its tenth year and has become a well-established, application-oriented meeting recognised by several UK Engineering Institutions and the International Society of Genetic and Evolutionary Computing.
The Adaptive Computing in Design and Manufacture conference series has become a well-established, largely application-oriented meeting recognised by several UK Engineering Institutions and the International Society of Genetic and Evolutionary Computing.
The increased level of activity on structural health monitoring (SHM) in various universities and research labs has resulted in the development of new methodologies for both identifying the existing damage in structures and predicting the onset of damage that may occur during service.
Innovation in Product Design gives an overview of the research fields and achievements in the development of methods and tools for product design and innovation.
This book highlights the critical challenge of improving the design and performance of hip implants, which are essential for enhancing patient outcomes in hip replacement surgeries.
This book not only presents the state-of-the-art research on knowledge modelling, knowledge retrieval and knowledge reuse, but also elaborates the Collaborative Knowledge Management (CKM) paradigm and the architecture for the next generation of knowledge management systems.
This book presents advanced concepts of computer-aided design, and computer-aided manufacture, through modelling and computer numerical control, coupled with the simulation of production systems.
The International Conference on Microstructure, VLSI, Robotics, Communication, Electrical & Emerging Technologies using AI-ML Algorithms (ICMVRCET - 2025) is an essential gathering for those at the forefront of research and development in the fields of Microstructure Design, VLSI systems, Robotics, Communication technologies, and Emerging Electrical systems.
This book covers three topics; 1) automotive structure foundational information, 2) the physics of important loading conditions & how they influence the structure's design, and 3) how the physics & design implications are different for the Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV) configuration.
This book contains the first volume of selected papers from International Symposium for Production Research 2024, held on October 10-12, 2024, in Budva, Montenegro.
