Plasticity, Damage and Fracture in Advanced Materials
This book presents studies on the plasticity, failure, and damage behavior of materials and structures under monotonic and cyclic loads. It focuses on the description of new effects observed in experiments and proposes various simulation models based on different approaches.
Age of Auto Electric
Focuses on changing environmental and socioeconomic conditions, energy and environmental policies, systems of energy conversion and industrial production, and innovation practices that affected the prevalence and popularity of electric vehicles in recent decades.
Autonomous Vehicle Ethics
Moves beyond the trolley problem to examine the broader ethical, legal, and social implications that autonomous vehicles present from a range of global perspectives.
Rapid Prototyping, Rapid Tooling and Reverse Engineering
Introduces the concept, origin, and working cycle of Rapid Prototyping Processes with emphasis on the applications. Highlights recent applications like Bio-Medical Models for Surgical Planning, Molecular Models, Architectural Models, Sculptured Models, Psycho-Analysis Models.
Noise, Vibration and Harshness of Electric and Hybrid Vehicles
Noise and vibration is a critical factor in how customers judge a vehicle’s quality. This book examines the challenges of dealing with noise and vibrarton in battery electric vehicles, hybrid electric vehicles, and fuel cell electric vehicles.
Black, Brown, Bruised by Ebony Omotola McGee; David Omotoso Stovall
Reveals the challenges that Black, Latinx, and Indigenous individuals face in academic and professional STEM realms and offers policies and practices to make STEM education and employment more inclusive.
Guide to Automotive Connectivity and Cybersecurity
Presents an in-depth review of state of the art automotive connectivity and cybersecurity including trends, technologies, innovations, and applications. Examines the automotive market, research, technology, autonomous vehicles, and methodological approaches to cybersecurity to avoid attacks against vehicles
Building Industrial Digital Twins by Shyam Varan Nath
Teaches you to build your first digital twin MVP and gain first-hand experience of using the technology, the challenges it presents, and its impact on your organization. Digital twin technology improves asset performance, utilization, and safe operations and reduces manufacturing, operational, and maintenance costs.
The Laser That's Changing the World
Lidar--a technology evolved from radar, but using laser light rather than microwaves--has found an astounding range of applications. Neff gives behind the scenes access tosome of the great innovators who have explored and expanded the uses of this amazing technology
Spark Ignition Engine Modeling and Control System Design
Applies recent technology developments to modelling and control, to improve the performance of hybrid vehicles and encourages designs which aid sustainabiligy by producing less pollutants and limiting fuel consumption.
Computer Aided Engineering of Batteries
Explores how, over the last ten years, several world-class academics, automotive original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), battery cell manufacturers and software developers worked together under an effort initiated by the U.S. Department of Energy to develop mature, validated modeling tools to simulate design, performance, safety and life of automotive batteries.
Composite Materials: Mechanics, Manufacture and Modeling
Examines manufacturing, mechanics and dynamic mechanical analysis of composites and explores diverse applications of composite materials in areas including aerospace, automotive, architecture, energy, marine and military.
Smart Manufacturing
Explores how new manufacturing technologies of Industry 4.0 will revitalize manufacturing in North America and Europe, and how it will affect workplace safety, cyber security, supply chain risk, career opportunities for women, and customer satisfaction.
Finite Element Analysis for Design Engineers by Paul M. Kurowski
Provides simple and informative exercisesw following proven methods for t design engineers to analyze CAD models and improve the process to deliver quick turnaround times and prompt implementation..
Machining Processes and Machines
Machining is one of the eight basic manufacturing processes. This book covers the fundamentals and engineering analysis of both conventional and advanced/non-traditional material removal processes along with gear cutting/manufacturing and computer numerically controlled (CNC) machining.
Annual Report on the Big Data of New Energy Vehicle In China
Using the real-time big data collected by China's National Monitoring and Management Platform for New-Energy Vehicles (NEVs), this book explores the annual technological progress of NEVs, the vehicle operating characteristics, and NEV trends.
The Leak by Robert P. Crease
How the 1997 discovery of a harmless leak of radiation sparked a media firestorm, political grandstanding, and fearmongering that closed a vital scientific facility. This compelling expose reveals the gaps between scientists, politicians, media, and the public that have only gotten more dangerous since 1997.

Automation is a Myth

Call Number: HD 6331 .M8865 2022

For some, automation will usher in a labor-free utopia; for others, it signals a disastrous age-to-come. Yet whether seen as dream or nightmare, Munn argues that labor is socially stratified and so automation's fallout will be highly uneven, falling heavier on some (immigrants, people of color, women) than others. In Automation is a Myth, Munn moves from machine minders in China to warehouse pickers in the United States to explore the ways that new technologies do (and don't) reconfigure labor.

Human-Robot Interaction

Human-Robot Interaction by Christoph Bartneck Tony Belpaeme, Friederike Eyssel and Takayuki Kanda

Call number: TJ 211.49 .B37 2020

The role of robots in society keeps expanding and diversifying, bringing with it a host of issues surrounding the relationship between robots and humans. Human-Robot Interaction (HRI), provides a concise and accessible guide to the current state of the field. It presents relevant background concepts, describing how robots work, how to design them, and how to evaluate their performance. Self-contained chapters discuss a wide range of topics, including the different communication modalities such as speech and language, non-verbal communication and the processing of emotions, as well as ethical issues around the application of robots today and in the context of our future society.
