The Mathematics Of Thermal Modeling An Introduction To The Theory Of Laser Material Processing 2E

The Mathematics of Thermal Modeling Second Edition provides an introduction to the basics of the mathematics and physics needed to understand and use the physical principles employed in constructing models of a number of aspects of thermal modeling in industrial processes notably laser welding; most of the techniques are applicable to many other technological processes however. The book demonstrates how insight can be gained from mathematical enquiry at a simple level and helps workers understand the way in which more sophisticated models can be constructed. Some necessary but less familiar mathematical techniques are explained in greater detail than before and some discussion of wave-like features in welds is now included. An understanding will be gained of the importance of studying the interaction of multiple features. The book is equally suitable for engineers and material scientists at the Master's or first-year Ph D level at university to similar students with a background in mathematics or physics who are new to laser or industrial technology or for research workers coming to mathematical modeling of industrial thermal processes for the first time whatever stage they have reached in their career development. |The Mathematics of Thermal Modeling An Introduction to the Theory of Laser Material Processing 2e
