ASM Handbook, Volume 22B: Metals Process Simulation provides insight into the integration of modeling for simulation of manufacturing processing. The metals industry is moving toward an integrated computational materials engineering approach (ICME). This provides engineers with accurate predictions of material and process behavior to avoid or reduce costly trial-by-error and prototyping methods of development. The table of contents illustrates the depth and breadth of the processes addressed. This area of engineering has been advancing rapidly, accruing the benefits of reduced manufacturing costs and improved component design. This book serves as a reference to these developments.
This Volume joins the companion, Volume 22A, Fundamentals of Modeling for Metals Processing to provide a complete authoritative reference for the modeling practitioner, or the student or engineer beginning their quest for information.
