This accessible and practical shortform book details the properties and advantages of high-performance pre-engineered steel-concrete composite beams (HPCBs) for improving the sustainability of construction techniques. It also explains the analysis methods for testing HPCB systems.The authors describe a new HPCB system that has been developed to reduce the input of raw materials and embodied CO2 commonly associated with heavily loaded and long-spanned industrial buildings (which pre...

Comprehensive reference on state-of-the-art aerospace materials, reviewing the latest developments in the field and providing guidance on machining challengesGrinding of Single-Crystal Superalloys provides a comprehensive understanding of grinding technology for single-crystal nickel-based superalloys. It explores and analyzes grinding mechanisms and characteristics using both theoretical and simulation approaches. Grinding behavior in conventional and mic...

This SpringerBrief mainly focuses on effective big data analytics for CPS, and addresses the privacy issues that arise on various CPS applications. The authors develop a series of privacy preserving data analytic and processing methodologies through data driven optimization based on applied cryptographic techniques and differential privacy in this brief. This brief also focuses on effectively integrating the data analysis and data privacy preservation techniques to provide the most desirab...
