This book presents selected papers from the 2nd International Conference on Industry 4.0 and Advanced Manufacturing held at the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore and includes deliberations from stakeholders in manufacturing and Industry 4.0 on the nature, needs, challenges, opportunities, problems, and solutions in these transformational areas. Special emphasis is placed on exploring avenues for creating a vision of, and enablers for, sustainable, affordable, and human-centric Industry 4.0. The book showcases cutting edge practice, research, and educational innovation in this crucial and rapidly evolving area. This book will be useful to researchers in academia and industry, and will also be useful to policymakers involved in creating ecosystems for implementation of Industry 4.0.

This book presents the fundamentals of texture and microtexture with the latest developments in the field and relates the same for different materials and processes. Crystallographic phase and orientation define the anisotropy of crystalline materials. In polycrystalline materials, the preferred crystallographic orientation of grain distributions, also known as (crystallographic) texture, controls the properties of materials. The evaluation of texture has been traditionally carried out by X-ray diffraction and neutron diffraction. In recent times, microtexture-based techniques have been widely used not only to examine the crystallographic texture but also to investigate the micro-mechanisms controlling the development of texture and microstructure. It has, therefore, become almost mandatory to re-visit the physical phenomenon associated with materials from the viewpoint of microtexture. The individual chapters have been written by the renowned scientists working in the respective domain. The book can be a valuable reference for researchers and professionals interested in fundamentals of texture and microtexture and allied fields.

This book presents select proceedings of the International Conference on Industry 4.0 and Advanced Manufacturing, abbreviated as I-4AM (pronounced i-forum), a biennial conference series, which intends to provide a platform to bring together all stakeholders in manufacturing and Industry 4.0.
