Opis

This volume contains the papers of the 1st Workshop IFToMM for Sustainable Development Goals (I4SDG), held online on November 25-26, 2021. The main topics of the workshop include the aspects of theory, design and practice of mechanism and machine science which are instrumental in reaching a sustainable development, such as: biomechanical engineering, sustainable energy systems, robotics and mechatronics, green tribology, computational kinematics, dynamics of machinery, industrial applications of mechanism design, gearing and transmissions, multibody dynamics rotor dynamics, vibrations, humanitarian engineering, and socio-technical systems for sustainable and inclusive development. The contributions, which were selected by means of a rigorous international peer-review process, highlight numerous exciting ideas that will spur novel research directions and foster multidisciplinary collaboration among different specialists, demonstrating that medical and service robotics will drive the technological and societal change in the coming decades.

This volume contains the papers of the 1st Workshop IFToMM for Sustainable Development Goals (I4SDG), held online on November 25-26, 2021.

Sustainability, in the wide sense expressed by Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), is the centre of tomorrows' technical challenges. The volume highlights the research activities in the IFToMM world community that can contribute to reaching SDG targets. The 17 Goals, represent a road map, which can inspire the research on Mechanism and Machine Science. They are presented in a sequence of chapters: sustainable energy systems; appropriate technologies and technical systems for sustainable and inclusive development; biomechanical engineering; robotics and mechatronics; green tribology; micromachines; linkage and mechanical control; transportation machinery, engines and powertrains; rotordynamics, multibody dynamics and vibrations; history of mechanism and machine science, education. 

 

Any researcher who is interested in shaping his research activity considering its impact on building an inclusive, sustainable, and resilient future will find this book an extraordinary and up-to-date window on the latest findings in this area.
