Steel-deformation modelling with its simultaneous solidification is particularly difficult due to its specificity and complexity. With regard to industrial applications and the development of new, integrated continuous casting and rolling processes, the issues related to modelling are becoming increasingly important. Since the numerous industrial tests that are necessary when traditional methods are used to design the process of continuous casting immediately followed by rolling are expensive, new modelling concepts have been sought. Comprehensive tests were applied to solve problems related to the deformation of steel with a semi-solid core. Physical tests using specialist laboratory instruments (Gleeble 3800thermo-mechanical simulator, NANOTOM 180 N computer tomography, Zwick Z250 testing equipment, 3D blue-light scanning systems), and advanced mathematical modelling (finite element method (FEM), SPH smoothed particle method, cellular automata method CA) were used. This book presents in detail a modelling concept for steel deformation in the semi-solid state based on an approach integrating physical and computer simulations with a full or partial information exchange between these areas. .Advanced Structured Materials,1869-8433 ;47ManufacturesMetalsMechanicsMechanics, AppliedManufacturing, Machines, Tools, Processeshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T22050Metallic Materialshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Z16000Solid Mechanicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T15010Manufactures.Metals.Mechanics.Mechanics, Applied.Manufacturing, Machines, Tools, Processes.Metallic Materials.Solid Mechanics.620.1123015118Hojny Marcinauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut978115MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910254172703321Modeling Steel Deformation in the Semi-Solid State2228286UNINA04140nam 22006615 450 991033775690332120230808074556.09783030008864303000886X10.1007/978-3-030-00886-4(CKB)4100000007127542(MiAaPQ)EBC5598633(DE-He213)978-3-030-00886-4(EXLCZ)99410000000712754220181109d2019 u| 0engurcnu||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierGoverning through Standards: the Faceless Masters of Higher Education The Bologna Process, the EU and the Open Method of Coordination /by Katja Brøgger1st ed. 2019.Cham :Springer International Publishing :Imprint: Springer,2019.1 online resource (194 pages)Educational Governance Research,2365-9556 ;109783030008857 3030008851 1.

The alteration of higher education: The performativity of standards -- 7. Concluding remarks: “Who marks the bench?”. .This book offers an empirical and theoretical account of the mode of governance that characterizes the Bologna Process. In addition, it shows how the reform materializes and is translated in everyday working life among professors and managers in higher education. It examines the so-called Open Method of Coordination as a powerful actor that uses “soft governance” to advance transnational standards in higher education. The book shows how these standards no longer serve as tools for what were once human organizational, national or international, regulators. Instead, the standards have become regulators themselves – the faceless masters of higher education. By exploring this, the book reveals the close connections between the Bologna Process and the EU regarding regulative and monitoring techniques such as standardizations and comparisons, which are carried out through the Open Method of Coordination. It suggests that the Bologna Process works as a subtle means to circumvent the EU’s subsidiarity principle, making it possible to accomplish a European governance of higher education despite the fact that education falls outside EU’s legislative reach. The book’s research interest in translation processes, agency and power relations among policy actors positions it in studies on policy transfer, policy borrowing and globalization. However, different from conventional approaches, this study draws on additional interpretive frameworks such as new materialism.Educational Governance Research,2365-9556 ;10Education and stateEducation, HigherPolitical sciencePoststructuralismInternational educationComparative educationEducational Policy and PoliticsHigher EducationGovernance and GovernmentPoststructuralismInternational and Comparative EducationEducation and state.Education, Higher.Political science.Poststructuralism.International education.Comparative education.Educational Policy and Politics.Higher Education.Governance and Government.Poststructuralism.International and Comparative Education.378.198094Brøgger Katjaauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1065422BOOK9910337756903321Governing through Standards: the Faceless Masters of Higher Education2545318UNINA
