Mathematical Approaches in Intelligent Manufacture and Mechanical Engineering

Dear Colleagues,

Intelligent manufacture is a key national development field, it lies at the core of many contemporary tools used in mechanical engineering. Based on its service performance demands in meeting the requirements of “High precision retention, High energy efficiency and consumption reduction, High fatigue-resistance life, High loading-strength, and High operational reliability”, many novel approaches have been proposed to realize the precise shape/property controlling manufacture of robotic equipment. They represent the manufacturing mechanism in mechanical engineering, control engineering, etc.

The theoretical analysis of intelligent manufacturing is important not only because it confirms the appropriateness of mechanical machining. It also provides insight into the manufacturer’s limitations and hints for future research. This research field deserves high innovative evaluation in the subjects of jet strengthen-modified machining, and precise control of automation production line, which provides important tools to improve the machining accuracy, material strength, and actual working performance of robotic equipment. It highlights the superiorities of theoretical analysis and facilitates remarkable performance improvement in the intelligent manufacturing field. So that it could be highly academic-valued due to its thorough clarification of high-performance manufacturing, and intelligent manufacture, etc. This research field has great significance to solve the theoretical and technological difficulties of high-end equipment.

You are cordially invited to submit papers related to all aspects of mathematical approaches in intelligent manufacture and mechanical engineering, both theoretical and applicational. This involves (but is not limited to) advanced high-performance manufacturing; intelligent robotic equipment; manufacturing mechanics of abrasive machining; jet strengthen-modified grinding; magnetic drive and its control technology; motorized spindle; electrical discharge machining; additive manufacturing; laser cutting; laser cleaning; laser shock processing; green manufacturing; etching; electrodeposition; surface treatment; mathematical models of micro machining performance; magnetic drive and its control technology; motorized spindle; electrical discharge machining; turbulence mechanics; combinatorial optimization; robust optimization, etc.
