Abstract: This is the second of two papers concerned with on-line optimization of cylindrical plunge grinding cycles with continuously varying infeed control. In the first paper [1], dynamic programming ...

Abstract: A new methodology is developed for optimal infeed control of cylindrical plunge grinding cycles. Unlike conventional cycles having a few sequential stages with discrete infeed rates, the new ...

Abstract: Most plastic processing set points are variables that need to be defined for each sample point of the cycle. However, in the absence of on-line measures of part quality, the set points cannot ...
