Mechatronics and Automation Technology


Book Description

With the development of science and technology, mechatronics and automation have changed the face of the traditional machinery manufacturing industry and become an important aspect of information technology and modern industrial production, with a huge impact in many diverse fields such as manufacturing, robotics, automation, the automobile industry and biomedicine. This book contains the proceedings of ICMAT 2022, the 2022 International Conference on Mechatronics and Automation Technology, held as a virtual event due to restrictions related to the COVID-19 pandemic, and hosted in Wuhan, China on 29 and 30 October 2022. The ICMAT conference is an ideal platform for bringing together researchers, practitioners, scholars, academics and engineers from all around the world to exchange the latest research results and stimulate scientific innovations. The conference received a total of 117 submissions, of which 82 papers were accepted for presentation and publication after a rigorous process of peer-review. The topics covered include mechanical manufacturing and equipment, robotics, information technology, automation technology, automotive systems, biomedicine and other related fields. The book provides an overview of technologies and applications in mechatronics and automation technology, as well as current research and development, and will be of interest to researchers, engineers, and educators working in the field.




Small Scale Structures


Book Description

This book contains the proceedings of 3 symposia dealing with various aspects of small scale structures. Symposium A deals with the development of new materials, including ceramics, polymers, metals, etc., their microstructuring as well as their potential for application in microsystems. All kinds of microsystems are considered, e.g. mechanical, magnetic, optical, chemical, biochemical and issues related to assembly and packaging were also covered.Symposium B deals with four topics: synthesis and preparation of nanostructured ceramics and composites with well-controlled geometric order and chemical composition; coupling of these structures to transducers for current and future chemical and biochemical devices based upon microoptics, microelectronics, microionics, microelectrodes or molecular cages; planar thin film structures and the control of covalent thin film/transducer couplings, the control of selective, stable and sensitive recognition centers at the surface, at grain boundaries or in the bulk of selected nanostructured materials with extremely narrow particle size distributions; analysis of these structures and sensor functions by means of techniques utilizing photons, electrons, ions, or atomic particle beam probes.Symposium E examines the structure-property relationships in thin films and multilayers, from the point of view of both fundamental studies and practical applications.







Biennial State-of-the-Art Sensors Technology in Australia 2019-2020


Book Description

Recent developments in novel materials, sensing principles and signal processing are paving the way for new types of analytical sensors, offering improved sensing performance and practicality. Such advancements will provide accurate and real-time analytical information in the environmental, food, and healthcare sectors to better guide decision-making. For sensors to be commercially viable, the miniaturisation and integration of components for rapid, automated, in-field detection and diagnosis need to be considered. This book highlights state-of-the-art sensors technology in Australia through original contributions and reviews.
