A New Theory of Additive Manufacturing


Free Download A New Theory of Additive Manufacturing: Solvable and Unsolvable Manufacturing Problems
English | 2025 | ISBN: 3031754263 | 82 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 13 MB
This is the first book on Additive Manufacturing that provides an original theory for the entire subject. It is the culmination of a search for the root cause of manufacturing problems that occur in practice. The author finds a reason why there are only two types of layer arrangement for manufacturing products and divides fabrication problems in additive manufacturing into two types: solvable and unsolvable. This allows readers to anticipate/avoid difficulty in manufacturing, saving materials, time, and resources.

The Exceptionally Simple Theory of Sketching


Free Download George Hlavács, "The Exceptionally Simple Theory of Sketching"
English | 2022 | ISBN: 906369640X | EPUB | pages: 88 | 14.1 mb
When watching a masterful sketcher, it seems that they create elaborate sketches with ease, tracing their pencils on the page and bringing to life rich and detailed drawings. After sweating away hours trying to create a simple sketch, you may find that yours pales in comparison, looking amateurish and unprofessional. Why is it that you can’t do what these ‘masters’ can?

Introduction to the Theory of Vehicular Collisions


Free Download Introduction to the Theory of Vehicular Collisions
English | 2025 | ISBN: 3031623541 | 120 Pages | PDF (True) | 5.4 MB
The phenomena that occur during a vehicle collision are extremely complex, to such an extent that car manufacturers are forced to carry out full-scale tests in order to draw conclusions about vehicle behavior. Fortunately, for the engineering calculations required in a collision analysis, equations can be considered, which, with reasonable development, and with good judgment, lead to reliable results. This book seeks to take a first step on the exciting topic of the Theory of Vehicular Collisions, because this field of science has crucial importance, for example, in clarifying circumstances of serious criminal and civil penalties situations. A brief historical review about the development of collisions theory is also included.

The Theory of Plane Area at the Crossroads Philosophical, Historical, and Logical Perspectives


Free Download The Theory of Plane Area at the Crossroads: Philosophical, Historical, and Logical Perspectives by Eduardo N. Giovannini , Edward Hermann Haeusler , Abel Lassalle Casanave
English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2024 | 160 Pages | ISBN : 3031709152 | 12.7 MB
This book explores a cluster of philosophical, historical, and logical problems concerning the foundations of the theory of plane area in elementary geometry. The motivation of this study is a notable geometrical proposition known as De Zolt’s postulate, which asserts that a polygon cannot be equal in area to a proper polygonal part. The book is the first systematic investigation of the philosophical and foundational significance of this proposition, which can also be described as the "fundamental theorem" of the theory of plane area.

Free Download Allyson E. Hayes, "Cryogenics: Theory, Processes and Applications "
English | ISBN: 1617613231 | 2011 | 171 pages | PDF | 7 MB
Cryogenics is the study of the production of very low temperature (below -150 °C, -238 °F or 123 K) and the behaviour of materials at those temperatures. This book presents current research from across the globe in the study of cryogenics, including the effect of cryogenic treatment on microstructure and mechanical properties of light weight alloys; the application of Fiber Bragg grating sensors at cryogenic temperatures; cryogenic grinding; liquid oxygen magnetohydrodynamics; and genetic engineering techniques used to improve tolerance to cryopreservation.
