The book exemplifies this approach in the context of aluminum die casting, and presents a set of measures which allow a 30 percent energy reduction along the value chain. The target audience primarily comprises researchers and experts in the field but the book may also be beneficial for graduate students UR - http://148.231.10.114:2048/login?url=http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-18815-7 ER -
