International Journal of Materials and Product Technology

 

Special Issue on: "Advanced Theory and Technologies for Design, Manufacturing and Materials"

Guest Editor: Professor Yang Ping, Jiangsu University, China

The purpose of this special issue is to publish recent research outputs on product engineering employing advanced design theory, manufacturing technologies and materials technologies. By advanced concepts, we mean non-conventional techniques. In last few decades, both academic literature and practice have put growing emphasis on the importance of advanced design, manufacturing and materials as a key factor in establishing durable competitive advantages in product engineering. The objective of the special issue is to provide a means for the publication and interchange of information, on an international basis, on all aspects of advanced theory and technologies for design, manufacturing and materials.

Subject Coverage
Suitable topics include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Design theory and method in product engineering
• Manufacturing technologies in product engineering
• Numerical methods, experiments and measurements in product engineering
• MEMS, nanotechnology, micro-packaging technology and materials
