In creating the value-added product in not distant future, it is necessary and inevitable to establish a holistic and though-evoking approach to the engineering problem, which should be at least associated with the inter-disciplinary knowledge and thought processes across the whole engineering spheres. It is furthermore desirable to integrate it with trans-disciplinary aspects ranging from manufacturing culture, through liberal-arts engineering and industrial sociology.The thought-evoking approach can be exemplified and typified by representative engineering problems: unveiling essential features in 'Tangential Force Ratio and Interface Pressure', prototype development for 'Bio-mimetic Needle' and application of 'Water-jet Machining to Artificial Hip Joint', product innovation in 'Heat Sink for Computer', application of 'Graph Theory' to similarity evaluation of production systems, leverage among reciprocity attributes in 'Industrial and Engineering Designs for Machine Enclosure' and academic interpretation of skills of mature technician in 'Scraping'.The book is intended to cultivate the multi-talented engineer of the next generation by providing them with the future perspective and ideas for challenging research and development subjects.
Yoshimi Ito, Dr.Eng., CEng., FIET, is professor emeritus at the Tokyo Institute of Technology and past president of the Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers. The author of numerous engineering research papers and books, he is currently a guest technical advisor at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and is working to establish the Indian Institute of Information Technology, Design and Manufacturing.
