Abstract: Electrical Discharge Machined (EDM) hole surface characteristics of 20 percent Titanium diboride (TiB2 ) particulate and Silicon carbide (SiC) matrix composite material were investigated. The EDM ...

Abstract: The use of Doppler ultrasonics provides one of the few, if not the only, methods of noninvasive measurement of blood flow and velocity in the body. In terms of overall accuracy the pulsed ...

Abstract: Machining of graphite/epoxy composite material is investigated by turning (cutoff) tests using different grades of polycrystalline diamond (PCD) inserts. The wear behavior of the PCD cutting edge ...

Abstract: The use of fringe-field capacitive sensing for surface profile measurement during the turning process is described. Measurements of the local surface height are inferred from variations in a ...

Abstract: A rugged, compact sensor for in-process measurement of surface finish profiles is proposed. The concept is based on the detection of variations in the fringe electric field generated between ...
