Fundamentals of Machine Component Design

Prof. Wael A. Altabey is an Associate Professor at Southeast University, Nanjing, China. He was awarded a post-doctoral research fellowship certificate in AI-based schemes for SHM, and damage detection of composite structures by Southeast University in 2018. Before that, he was an Associate Professor at the Mechanical Engineering Department, Faculty of Engineering, Alexandria University, Alexandria, Egypt. Prof. Wael A. Altabey has studied machine design and optimum design for more than 10 years in a variety of class sizes in different universities with remarkable student diversity. He discussed machine design and optimum design methods and theories in several publications published by high impact factors journals.
