Surface Texture and Machining Conditions. Part 2: Development of Mathematical Model Based Upon Pattern Recognition
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Logic foundations expounded in Part 1 are applied to development of a mathematical model describing profile generation in face milling. A pattern recognition procedure is developed, capable of ...
Buffer Size Planning Versus Transfer Line Efficiency
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The paper deals with the main design problem for series production systems, namely the choice of efficiency-optimal values of interstage buffer capacities. It is shown that the design tool must ...
Transfer Lines: A Deterministic Model for Buffer Capacity Selection
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A key problem in transfer line design is that of determining what size should be assigned to intermediate storage buffers in order to maintain a desired production rate despite the imbalances ...
Surface Texture and Machining Conditions. Part 1: Model Building Logic in View of Process Control
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Surface texture generation in machining processes is examined in view of establishing a model building procedure capable of linking surface finish parameters to machining conditions. In the first ...
Resilience-Based Design of Natural Gas Distribution Networks
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The concept of disaster resilience has received considerable attention in recent years and is increasingly used as an approach for understanding the dynamic response to natural disasters. In this paper, a new performance ...
Measurements of the Skin Temperature on Small Lakes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An apparatus to measure the skin temperature and related variables on inland lakes is described. The apparatus is a transparent frame with sensors to measure the skin and bulk water temperature, the wind velocity, and the ...
Using Location-Allocation Algorithms to Distribute Multioutlet Hydrants in Irrigation Networks Design
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Location-allocation algorithms allow for situating services in an efficient way in zones where the demand is dispersed across the area. In the present work, the minisum location-allocation algorithm is used to optimize the ...
Valuing Visitor Willingness to Pay for Urban Green Space Conservation: Case of Maria Luisa Park in Seville, Spain
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Urban Green Spaces (UGS) can be a source of ecosystem service provision that exerts a positive impact on the wellbeing of users. The present study assessed the willingness to pay (WTP) for the UGS of Maria Luisa Park, ...
Towards a Durable Polymeric Internal Coating for Diabatic Sections in Wickless Heat Pipes
Publisher: American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Heat pipe characteristics are linked to the surface properties of the diabatic surfaces, and, in the evaporator, surface properties influence both the onset boiling temperature (TONB) and the critical heat flux (CHF). In ...
Biomechanics and Mechanobiology of Trabecular Bone: A Review
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Trabecular bone is a highly porous, heterogeneous, and anisotropic material which can be found at the epiphyses of long bones and in the vertebral bodies. Studying the mechanical properties of trabecular bone is important, ...
