Advanced materials are becoming increasingly important as
substitutes for traditional materials and as facilitators for new
and unique products. They have had a considerable impact on the
development of a wide range of strategic technologies. Structural
ceramics, biomaterials, composites and intermetallics fall under
this category of advanced materials. There may be several
additional materials in this category, but this book will only
focus on these four types of materials. Even though some of these
materials can be machined by conventional methods, material
processing with lasers is an expanding field which is drawing
attention of everyone in the industry as well as academics. As
laser machining offers several advantages such as capabilities for
machining the materials that are difficult to machine otherwise and
flexibility and automation, the scope for applications of these
advanced materials is further extended. Laser Machining of Advanced
Materials focuses on the fundamental principles and physical
phenomena involved in the laser machining of the above mentioned
advanced materials. The book begins with an overview of the various
conventional and non-conventional techniques employed in machining
followed by a fundamental understanding of the material removal
mechanisms involved in laser machining. It then covers the specific
topic of laser machining of advanced materials. Understanding of
the physics behind laser machining of advanced materials and
associated thermodynamics, heat and mass transfer and
microstructure evolution is provided. This book also covers the
modeling efforts made in this field which enables a better and
efficient control of the process for a desired application. The
principal audience for this book is undergraduate and graduate
students with majors in a variety of disciplines, computational
modelers, experimentalists, microscopists and research
scientists/associates in national and private research labs and
universities worldwide conducting research on laser material
interaction and people directly working in laser related
industries.
