The aim of this book is to summarize the current most effective methods for modeling, simulating, and optimizing metal forming processes, and to present the main features of new, innovative methods ...currently being developed which will no doubt be the industrial tools of tomorrow. It discusses damage (or defect) prediction in virtual metal forming, using advanced multiphysical and multiscale fully coupled constitutive equations. Theoretical formulation, numerical aspects as well as application to various sheet and bulk metal forming are presented in detail. Virtual metal forming is nowadays inescapable when looking to optimize numerically various metal forming processes in order to design advanced mechanical components. To do this, highly predictive constitutive equations accounting for the full coupling between various physical phenomena at various scales under large deformation including the ductile damage occurrence are required. In addition, fully 3D adaptive numerical methods related to time and space discretization are required in order to solve accurately the associated initial and boundary value problems. This book focuses on these two main and complementary aspects with application to a wide range of metal forming and machining processes. Contents 1. Elements of Continuum Mechanics and Thermodynamics. 2. Thermomechanically-Consistent Modeling of the Metals Behavior with Ductile Damage. 3. Numerical Methods for Solving Metal Forming Problems. 4. Application to Virtual Metal Forming.

To efficiently transform light energy into electrical via developing smart and environmentally benign materials is one of the most investigated ways of producing renewable energy. Here, ...inorganic-lead free and non-toxic double perovskite La2NiMnO6 material is employed as an active layer along with fullerene as ETL and NiO as HTL to form heterostructure perovskite solar cell. To determine the highest power conversion efficiency for the current photovoltaic device, an extensive theoretical analysis is implemented using the SCAPS-1D simulation tool. The best performing devices showed power conversion efficiency of 24.46% with excellent solar cell characteristics, whereas the performance can be tuned via careful modulation of metal work function. The theoretical finding suggests that with a systematic investigation of these materials can be utilized as probable successors for highly efficient active material in photovoltaic utilities.
•Inorganic-lead free and non-toxic double perovskite La2NiMnO6 material is promising for solar cells.•The role of device contacts plays a crucial role in the efficiency of perovskite solar cells.•Layer thickness and device architecture plays an important role in the device performance.

Vividly illustrated, this is the first comprehensive
catalogue of the J. Paul Getty Museum's celebrated collection of
seventeenth- and eighteenth-century French silver. The
collection of seventeenth- ...and eighteenth-century French silver at
the J. Paul Getty Museum is of exceptional quality and state of
preservation. Each piece is remarkable for its beauty, inventive
form, skillful execution, illustrious provenance, and the renown of
its maker. This volume is the first complete study of these
exquisite objects, with more than 250 color photographs bringing
into focus extraordinary details such as minuscule makers' marks,
inscriptions, and heraldic armorials. The publication details the
formation of the Museum's collection of French silver, several
pieces of which were selected by J. Paul Getty himself, and
discusses the regulations of the historic Parisian guild of gold-
and silversmiths that set quality controls and consumer
protections. Comprehensive entries catalogue a total of
thirty-three pieces with descriptions, provenance, exhibition
history, and technical information. The related commentaries shed
light on the function of these objects and the roles they played in
the daily lives of their prosperous owners. The book also includes
maker biographies and a full bibliography. The free online edition
of this open-access publication is available at
getty.edu/publications/french-silver/ and includes 360-degree views
and zoomable high-resolution photography. Also available are free
