Corrosion challenges towards a sustainable society

A global transition towards more sustainable, affordable and reliable energy systems is being stimulated by the Paris Agreement and the United Nation's 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. This poses a challenge for the corrosion industry, as building climate-resilient energy systems and infrastructures brings with it a long-term direction, so as a result the long-term behaviour of structural materials (mainly metals and alloys) becomes a major prospect. With this in mind "Corrosion Challenges Towards a Sustainable Society" presents a series of cases showing the importance of corrosion protection of metals and alloys in the development of energy production to further understand the science of corrosion, and bring the need for research and the consequences of corrosion into public and political focus. This includes emphasis on the limitation of greenhouse gas emissions, on the lifetime of infrastructures, implants, cultural heritage artefacts, and a variety of other topics

Phasenweise Konstruktion. Die montagegerechte Konstruktion entscheidet über die Wirtschaftlichkeit

Die Kennzahl ist bekannt: 75% der Kostenverantwortung liegt bei der Konstruktion. Um das Rationalisierungspotential Montage ausschöpfen zu können, müssen effektive Hilfsmittel für den Konstrukteur bereitstehen, die ihm helfen, die Forderung nach montagegerechter Produktgestaltung erfüllen zu können
