Synopsis

Rigor meets real time in intelligent processing of materials.

This concise guide explains how sensors, process models, data bases, and online controllers work together to adjust conditions during manufacturing for targeted material properties. It highlights how industry collaboration drives practical outcomes, from metals to ceramics and polymers.

The book outlines two main program types: large consortia that speed research and technology transfer, and smaller projects that test advanced sensing techniques in specific applications. Readers see examples like real-time sensing in metal atomization, eddy current measurements during hot rolling, and imaging approaches that reveal how powders behave under processing. The material also covers theoretical centers that advance modeling and information sharing across institutions.
What you’ll experience
  • An introduction to how sensor outputs link to material strength and microstructure in steels.
  • A view of real-world plant demonstrations and the steps to bring lab advances into production.
  • An overview of the teamwork between national laboratories, industry partners, and universities.
  • Practical context for applying IPM methods to metals, ceramics, polymers, and composites.
Ideal for readers who want a clear, practical look at how advanced sensing and modeling improve industrial materials processing.
