Mechanical engineering and green manufacturing II : selected, peer reviewed papers from the 2nd International Conference on Mechanical Engineering and Green Manufacturing (MEGM 2012), March 16-18, 2012, Chongqing, China / MEGM 2012 edited by Shaobao Zhong and Xilong Qu. - Durnten-Zurich, Switzerland ; Enfield, NH : Trans Tech Publications, ©2012. - 1 online resource (2 volumes (xxiv, 1255 pages)) : illustrations - Applied mechanics and materials, v. 155-156 1660-9336 ; . - Applied mechanics and materials ; v. 155-156. .

"MEGM 2012 had drawn the attention of researchers from various disciplines: Mechanical Engineering Design, Green Manufacturing Technology, Applied Mechanics, Sustainable Materials, etc."--Preface.

Includes bibliographical references and index.

Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS).The object of this special volume is to disseminate state-of-the-art information on the best practices for advanced mechanical engineering and sustainable materials and green manufacturing, and addresses the problems and opportunities offered by the prospect of a sustainable future. It will encourage engineers and scientists in academia, industry and government to embrace the most innovative research and development ideas in order better to confront technical challenges and social and economic issues arising from all aspects of advanced mechanical engineering and green manufacturing. Two volumes contain 244 papers selected for presentation (from 967 submissions) at the Second International Conference on Mechanical Engineering and Green Manufacturing (MEGM 2012) held in Chongqing, China. Although ostensibly arranged under broad themes, the papers range so widely in subject matter that those themes don't make much sense. For example, under the subject heading "Sustainable Materials" are papers on multimedia materials for teaching English, low-carbon tourism, soil enzyme activities, the influence of multimedia communication materials on students' sports motivation, and studies of nanoscale sliding contacts of textured surfaces, among others. The second volume does contain a keyword index, but it's brief, each topic typically showing one or two page references. The focus of the meeting and of this published proceedings set is so broad that access to the contents in print is probably secondary to access afforded electronically.
