A GENERAL STUDY OF PROCESSES FOR THE REALIZATION OF DESIGN CONFIGURATIONS IN MATERIALS

Abstract

(Pressure, Temperature, Controlled atmospheres, Electric fields, Magnetic fields.) Identifiers: Neos project.A rationale and a systematic approach were developed from a novel, completely generalized, abstract concept of the manufacturing process. Processes are classified according to form of energy, mode of energy transfer, environment, and process topology. Materials are classified according to type of bond, and the dominant role of their structure-sensitive properties is discussed. Exploratory studies of phenomena suitable for novel processes are presented; e.g. a recently discovered mechanical resonance phenomenon shows promise of reducing the required flow stress in certain forming operations.
