Author Description

Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters BCI (WoS).The present volume consists of a collection of peer-reviewed papers covering manufacturing process simulation, vibration measurement and reliability analysis, finite element analysis and structure optimization, fault diagnosis and maintenance theory, complex mechanical-electro-liquid systems, effect of machining methods or techniques upon material mechanical properties (such as their effect upon stress states, fatigue resistance, etc.), quality control of manufacturing systems, and so on. This book will be essential reading for production and research engineers, and also for research students and academics interested in these fields. The special issue contains 62 invited and peer-reviewed articles on such topics as a parametric curve interpolation algorithm for high speed machining, process modeling methods based on global and associated design and its applications, the vibration model analysis of an active magnetic bearing system, methods for calculating geometric average sound intensity in a scattering field, the modeling and experimental investigation of jet electrolytic drilling, designing and optimizing force balanced constant spring hangers with the MATLAB language and environment, and developing an economic model for milling titanium alloys.
