Metamaterial Design and Additive Manufacturing covers optimization
design, manufacturing, microstructure, mechanical properties,
acoustic properties, mass-transport properties and application
examples of PMs fabricated by selective laser melting additive
manufacturing technology. The book introduces the definition and
concept of pentamode metamaterials and then describes their
characterization, including manufacturing fidelity, mechanical
response, acoustic properties and so on. Final sections analyze
research situations, problems and applications of additive
manufacturing pentamode metamaterials.
This collection addresses the need for sustainable technologies
with reduced energy consumption and pollutants and the development
and application of alternative sustainable energy to maintain a
green environment and energy supply. Contributions focus on
energy-efficient technologies including innovative ore
beneficiation, smelting technologies, and recycling and waste heat
recovery, as well as emerging novel energy technologies. Papers
also cover various technological aspects of sustainable energy
ecosystems, processes that improve energy efficiency, reduce
thermal emissions, and reduce carbon dioxide and other greenhouse
emissions. Papers from the following symposia are presented in the
