There is a need to categorize AI applications, tools, techniques, and algorithms based on their intended use in various design stages. Specifically, there is a need to explore AI techniques that are utilized for things such as design tasks, including but not limited to inspiration, idea and concept generation, concept evaluation, optimization, decision-making, and modeling. This includes things like generating ideas and concepts, evaluating those ideas, optimizing designs, making decisions, and creating models. This handbook brings all of these categories with compatible AI techniques, tools, and algorithms together in one place.

Handbook of AI in Engineering Applications: Tools, Techniques, and Algorithms covers applications of AI in engineering and highlights areas such as future cities, mechanical system analysis, and robotic process automation, and presents the application of AI and the use of computerized systems that aim to simplify and automate the processes of design and construction of civil works. The handbook discusses the design and optimization of mechanical systems and parts, such as engines, gears, and bearings, which can be automated using AI and it explores the performance of robotics and automation systems which can be simulated and analyzed using AI to forecast behavior, spot future issues, and suggest changes. Rounding out this handbook is AI technology automation and how analyzing relevant data can provide a reliable basis for relevant personnel to carry out their work.

This handbook fills the gap between R&D in AI and will benefit all stakeholders including industries, professionals, technologists, academics, research scholars, senior graduate students, government, and public healthcare professionals.
