Abstract: Static and dynamic characteristics of a two stage relief valve have been studied theoretically and experimentally. The governing equations of the valve have been derived and sensitivity analysis ...

Abstract: System identification of linear stochastic systems has been the concern of many scientists and engineers. The same system can be described in many ways and consequently many different models ...

Abstract: This paper deals with the spallation induced by shock wave propagation in targets during the laser shock peening process. Physical aspects concerning laser-matter interaction, shock wave propagation, ...

Abstract: The feasibility of laser-assisted machining (LAM) and its potential to significantly reduce fabrication costs and improve product quality have been shown experimentally for various ceramic materials. ...

Abstract: This paper presents a time-domain dynamic model, which simulates cylindrical plunge grinding processes under general grinding conditions. The model focuses on the prediction of grinding chatter ...

Abstract: This paper presents a comprehensive time domain model that simulates end milling processes under general cutting conditions. Over an extensive range of axial depths of cut, the model can ...

Abstract: In this paper we present a comprehensive dynamic model that simulates surface grinding processes and predict their regenerative chatter characteristics. The model considers special aspects in ...

Abstract: In this paper, a unified method for constructing dynamic models for tool wear from prior experiments is proposed. The model approximates flank and crater wear propagation and their effects on ...

Abstract: In this paper, a multi-level fuzzy control (MLFC) technique is developed and implemented for a creep-feed grinding process. The grinding force is maintained at the maximum allowable level under ...

Abstract: A novel multilevel fuzzy control system is introduced and implemented for online force control of end-milling processes to increase machining productivity and improve workpiece quality, where the ...
