Energy Consumption Modeling and Analyses in Automotive Manufacturing Plant
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Manufacturing plants energy consumption accounts for a large share in world energy usage. Energy consumption modeling and analyses are widely studied to understand how and where the energy is used inside of the plants. ...
Temperature-Controlled Forming of 7075-T6 Aluminum Using Linearly Decaying Direct Electric Current
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: 7075-T6 aluminum suffers from limited elongation during tensile forming; electrically assisted forming (EAF), which uses direct current to improve formability, is a viable candidate process to improve this effect. In past ...
Thermal Response Modeling of Sheet Metals in Uniaxial Tension During Electrically Assisted Forming
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: For the current practice of improving fuel efficiency and reducing emissions in the automotive sector, it is becoming more common to use low density/high strength materials instead of costly engine/drivetrain technologies. ...
Alternative Control of an Electrically Assisted Tensile Forming Process Using Current Modulation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Electrically assisted forming is a technique whereby metal is deformed while simultaneously undergoing electric current flow. Using this process, electric current level becomes a new degree of freedom for process control. ...
Parameter Inference Under Uncertainty in End-Milling γ′-Strengthened Difficult-to-Machine Alloy
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Nickel-based alloys are those of materials that are maintaining their strength at high temperature. This feature makes these alloys a suitable candidate for power generation industry. However, high wear rate and tooling ...
Evaluation of Contrived Wear Methodology in End Milling of Inconel 718
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Tool wear plays a decisive role in achieving the required surface quality and dimensional accuracy during the machining of Inconel 718-based products. The highly stochastic phenomenon of tool wear, particularly in later ...
Correlation of the Volumetric Tool Wear Rate of Carbide Milling Inserts With the Material Removal Rate of Ti–6Al–4V
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The objective of this paper is to assess the correlation of volumetric tool wear (VTW) and wear rate of carbide tools on the material removal rate (MRR) of titanium alloys. A previously developed methodology for assessing ...
Electroplastic Drilling of Low- and High-Strength Steels
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: When postforming machining operations are required on high-strength structural components, tool life becomes a costly issue, often requiring external softening via techniques such as laser assistance for press-hardened ...
Investigation of Heterogeneous Joule Heating as the Explanation for the Transient Electroplastic Stress Drop in Pulsed Tension of 7075-T6 Aluminum
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The electroplastic effect can be predicted and modeled as a 100% bulk heating/softening phenomenon in the quasi-steady-state; however, these same models do not accurately predict flow stress in transient cases. In this ...
Cost Estimation Model for Polyacrylonitrile-Based Carbon Fiber Manufacturing Process
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A polyacrylonitrile (PAN)-based carbon fiber (CF) manufacturing cost estimation model driven by mass is presented in this study. One of the biggest limiting factors in the large-scale use of carbon fiber (CF) in manufacturing ...
