Generally a laser (light amplification by stimulated emission of
radiation) is defined as "a device which uses a quantum
mechanical effect, stimulated emission, to generate a coherent beam
of light from a lasing medium of controlled purity, size, and
shape". Laser material processing represents a great number
of methods, which are rapidly growing in current and different
industrial applications as new alternatives to traditional
manufacturing processes. Nowadays, the use of lasers in
manufacturing is an emerging area with a wide variety of
applications, for example, in electronics, molds and dies, and
biomedical applications.
The purpose of this book is to present a collection of examples
illustrating the state of the art and research developments to
lasers in manufacturing, covering laser rapid manufacturing, lasers
in metal forming applications, laser forming of metal foams,
mathematical modeling of laser drilling, thermal stress analysis,
modeling and simulation of laser welding, and the use of lasers in
surface engineering.
This book can be used as a research book for a final undergraduate
engineering course or as a subject on lasers in manufacturing at
the postgraduate level. Also, this book can serve as a useful
reference for academics, laser researchers, mechanical,
manufacturing, materials or physics engineers, or professionals in
any related modern manufacturing technology.
