Handbook of Smart Materials, Technologies, and Devices: Applications of Industry 4.0

This handbook brings together technical expertise, conceptual background, applications, and societal aspects of Industry 4.0: the evolution of automation and data exchange in fabrication technologies, materials processing, and device manufacturing at both experimental and theoretical model scales. The book assembles all the aspects of Industry 4.0, starting from the emergence of the concept to the consequences of its progression. Drawing on expert contributors from around the world, the volume details the technologies that sparked the fourth revolution and illustrates their characteristics, potential, and methods of use in the industrial and societal domains. In addition, important topics such as ethics, privacy and security are considered in a reality where all data is shared and saved remotely. The collection of contribution serve a very broad audience working in the fields of science and engineering, chemical engineering, materials science, nanotechnology, energy, environment, green chemistry, sustainability, electrical and electronic engineering, solid-state physics, surface science, aerosol technology, chemistry, colloid science, device engineering, and computer technology. This handbook ideal reference libraries in universities and industrial institutions, government and independent institutes, individual research groups and scientists.

這本手冊匯集了工業4.0的技術專業知識、概念背景、應用和社會方面的內容：自動化和數據交換在製造技術、材料加工和設備製造方面的演進，無論是在實驗還是理論模型的尺度上。本書匯集了工業4.0的所有方面，從概念的出現到其發展的後果。本書依賴來自世界各地的專家貢獻者，詳細介紹了引發第四次工業革命的技術，並說明了它們的特點、潛力和在工業和社會領域中的使用方法。此外，還考慮了倫理、隱私和安全等重要主題，在所有數據都被共享和遠程保存的現實中。這些貢獻的集合適用於在科學和工程、化學工程、材料科學、納米技術、能源、環境、綠色化學、可持續性、電氣和電子工程、固態物理學、表面科學、氣溶膠技術、化學、膠體科學、設備工程和計算機技術等領域工作的廣泛受眾。這本手冊是大學和工業機構的理想參考圖書館，也適用於政府和獨立研究機構、個人研究團體和科學家。
