Lecture Notes in Mechanical Engineering

This book contains the papers presented at the International Joint Conference on Mechanics, Design Engineering & Advanced Manufacturing, JCM 2024, held on 12-14 June in Valencia, Spain. It reports on cutting-edge topics in product design and manufacturing, such as industrial methods for integrated product and process design; innovative design; and computer-aided design. Further topics covered include virtual simulation and reverse engineering; additive manufacturing; product manufacturing; engineering methods in medicine and education; representation techniques; and nautical, engineering and construction, aeronautics and aerospace design and modeling. The book is divided into six main sections, reflecting the focus and primary themes of the conference. The contributions presented in this book will not only provide researchers, engineers and experts in a range of industrial engineering subfields with extensive information to support their daily work; but also stimulate new research directions, advanced applications of the methods discussed, and future interdisciplinary collaborations.
