Sustainable Material Forming and Joining
暫譯: 可持續材料成形與連接

本書的主要目標是讓讀者了解可持續材料成形和連接技術的基本概念，並討論傳統工藝與可持續工藝之間的關係。書中還提供了有關材料成形和連接過程中可持續問題的案例研究，轉換傳統工藝為綠色工藝的實作，以及通過教育強調對可持續和綠色製造的認識的重要性。本書將包括材料成形中的綠色和可持續性概念，如大宗成形和板材成形，重點強調熱成形、材料開發、潤滑以及最小化缺陷。

主要特點

- 概念化綠色和可持續性問題，以實現高效的材料成形和連接
- 通過成形操作解決可持續製造的重要方面
- 提供傳統與可持續製造過程的比較
- 包含來自行業專家的實用案例研究
- 討論材料成形中的綠色和可持續性概念，如大宗成形和板材成形，重點強調熱成形、材料開發、潤滑以及最小化缺陷

Dr. Jay Gunasekera is an internationally recognized researcher in the area of metal forming and manufacturing. He has pioneered discoveries in the design of streamlined extrusion dies, forging and heat treatment problems, and ring rolling.

Dr. Gunasekera was the Mechanical Engineering Department Chair at Ohio University from 1991-2006. During his time as department chair, undergraduate and graduate enrollments increased significantly, two new laboratory courses for senior design and research were established, two-thirds of the current faculty were hired, and research funding increased exponentially to over two million dollars per year. Dr. Gunasekera has advised over 90 graduate students, many of who are now leaders in their respective fields. Additionally, he helped form the Center for Advanced Materials Processing (CAMP), and served as its first director.

Dr. Gunasekera was the American Editor of the Journal of Materials Processing Technology published by Elsevier. He has undertaken research and consulting projects for the United States Air Force, General Electric, Pratt & Whitney, General Motors, and a large number of forging companies.

Dr. Gunasekera has been published in over 150 technical publications and referenced in many journals and conferences. He was awarded the highest doctorate (D.Sc.) Degree by the University of London in 1991 for his contribution in research and publications in the field of manufacturing engineering. He was a Fellow of the City & Guilds of London, the highest honor conferred by that institution, and remains the only Sri Lankan to ever receive this award. He is a Fellow of SME & FRSA, past Fellow of IMechE, IProdE & IEE.

He is recognized in Who's Who in Engineering Education, Who's Who in the World, Who's Who of Emerging Leaders in America, Who's Who in American Education, The International Who's Who of Intellectuals, International Leaders in Achievement, The International Directory of Distinguished Leadership, Men of Achievement, and Who's Who of Engineering Leader's of America.
