High-Speed Precision CNC Machine Tools: The Theory and Methods of Thermal Behavior Simulation and Control summarizes the thermal-structure interaction simulation and optimization of high-speed precision machine tools. It begins by examining the current research status of high-speed precision machine tools followed by the thermal-structure interaction characteristic modeling and simulation of high-speed precision machine tools. Later chapters are related to the application of the topology o...

Meteorites are fascinating cosmic visitors. Using accessible language, this book documents the history of mineralogy and meteorite research, summarizes the mineralogical characteristics of the myriad varieties of meteorites, and explains the mineralogical characteristics of Solar System bodies visited by spacecraft. Some of these bodies contain minerals that do not occur naturally on Earth or in meteorites. The book explains how to recognize different phases under the microscope and in bac...
