Abstract: Tolerancing is one of the most important tasks in product and manufacturing process design. In the literature, both Monte Carlo simulation and numerical optimization method have been widely used ...

Abstract: The operation of corner-radiused tools under both depth-of-cut and feed variation is a situation that occurs for many processes (e.g., straight turning, contour turning, boring, and face-milling) ...

Abstract: A method that uses input/output measurements is developed for the estimation of the coefficients of stochastic Time-varying AutoRegressive Moving Average with eXogeneous imputs (TARMAX) models. The ...

Abstract: This paper presents a method for decomposition of structural products in order to provide the product designer with choices for feasible assemblies. The synthesis of assemblies is done by ...

Abstract: This paper presents a method of assembly synthesis focused on the in-process adjustability, where assembly synthesis is defined as the decomposition of the end product design prior to the ...

Abstract: This study presents a systematic decomposition process to carry out assembly synthesis as a tool during the conceptual design phase of a product. Two configurations obtained by structural topology ...

Abstract: Varying the blank holder force during forming can lead to higher formability and accuracy, and better part consistency. Process control, using on-line adjustment of the blank holder force to ...

Abstract: Various hydrodynamic maneuvering models are available for modeling the slow motion horizontal plane dynamics of mooring and towing systems. In previous work, we compared four representative and ...

Abstract: A linear cascade experiment was conducted to investigate transonic and low supersonic flow losses of two nozzle blades for the steam turbines. In the experiment, flow incidences were changed ...
