Thin Films, Atomic Layer Deposition, and 3D Printing (eBook, ePUB)

Demystifying the Concepts and Their Relevance in Industry 4.0

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Thin Films, Atomic Layer Deposition, and 3D Printing explains the concept of thin films, atomic layers deposition, and the Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR) with an aim to illustrate existing resources and give a broader perspective of the involved processes as well as provide a selection of different types of 3D printing, materials used for 3D printing, emerging trends and applications, and current top-performing 3D printers using different technologies. It covers the concept of the 4IR and its role in current and future human endeavors for both experts/nonexperts. The book includes figures, diagrams, and their applications in real-life situations.

Features:

• Provides comprehensive material on conventional and emerging thin film, atomic layer, and additive technologies.
• Discusses the concept of Industry 4.0 in thin films technology.
• Details the preparation and properties of hybrid and scalable (ultra) thin materials for advanced applications.
• Explores detailed bibliometric analyses on pertinent applications.
• Interconnects atomic layer deposition and additive manufacturing.

This book is aimed at researchers and graduate students in mechanical, materials, and metallurgical engineering.

Autorenporträt

Kingsley Ukoba is a lecturer and researcher in the Department of Mechanical Engineering Science of the University of Johannesburg, South Africa. He obtained a doctoral degree in Mechanical Engineering from the University of KwaZulu-Natal, Durban, in South Africa, graduating among the top 15 researchers. He coordinates the smart energy group for JENANO, headed by Professor Jen. He is among the authors for the African Integrated Assessment report by the United Nations Environment Programme, African Union Commission, CCAC, and Stockholm Environment Institute (SEI) joint publication. He is also a 2022 Engineering for Change (E4C) fellow sponsored by American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) to support an Impact Project around Climate Action. He has authored book chapters and journal articles, has presented at conferences, and serves as a reviewer for high-impact journals and conferences.

Tien-Chien Jen is the head of Department of Mechanical Engineering Science at the University of Johannesburg, South Africa. He is the SARChI Chair for Green Hydrogen in South Africa. A director of the Atomic Layer Deposition Research Centre of the University of Johannesburg, South Africa. Prior to that, he was a faculty member at the University of Wisconsin, Milwaukee, United States of America. Prof Jen received his Ph.D. in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering from the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), specializing in the thermal aspects of grinding. He is currently leading the drive for the application of atomic layer deposition equipment (first of its kind in Africa) for various applications (hydrogen, renewable energy, thin films, etc.). He is a fellow of American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) and member of Academy of Science of South Africa (ASSAf), among others. Prof. Jen has written over 360 peer-reviewed articles, including 180 peer-reviewed journal papers, 16 book chapters, and 5 books to date.
