Hole Making by Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) of -TiAl Intermetallic Alloys
(MDPI, 2018-07)
Due to their excellent strength-to-weight ratio and corrosion and wear resistance, gamma-TiAl alloys are selected for aerospace and automotive applications. Since these materials are difficult to cut and machine by ...
Improving Stability Prediction in Peripheral Milling of Al7075T6
(MDPI, 2018-08)
Chatter is an old enemy to machinists but, even today, is far from being defeated. Current requirements around aerospace components call for stronger and thinner workpieces which are more prone to vibrations. This study ...
Sensitivity Analysis of Tool Wear in Drilling of Titanium Aluminides
(MDPI, 2019-03-06)
In the aerospace industry, a large number of holes need to be drilled to mechanically connect the components of aircraft engines. The working conditions for such components demand a good response of their mechanical ...
Multioperation capacity of parallel manipulators basing on generic kinematic chain approach
(Elsevier, 2017-06-07)
The idea of designing multioperation mechanisms capable of performing different tasks has gained prominence in the last years. These mechanisms, commonly called reconfig- urable mechanisms, have the ability to change their ...
Parallel manipulators: practical applications and kinematic design criteria. Towards the modular reconfigurable robots
(Springer, 2017-06-10)
Modern robotic manipulators play an essential role in industry, developing several tasks in an easy way, enhancing the accuracy of the final product and reducing the executing time. Also they can be found in other fields ...
Composite Mould Design with Multiphysics FEM Computations Guidance
(MDPI, 2023-02-17)
Composite moulds constitute an attractive alternative to classical metallic moulds when used for components fabricated by processes such as Resin Transfer Moulding (RTM). However, there are many factors that have to be ...
Latest Developments to Manufacture Metal Matrix Composites and Functionally Graded Materials through AM: A State-of-the-Art Review
(MDPI, 2023-02-20)
Multi-material structure fabrication has the potential to address some critical challenges in today’s industrial paradigm. While conventional manufacturing processes cannot deliver multi-material structures in a single ...
On Constraints and Parasitic Motions of a Tripod Parallel Continuum Manipulator
(MDPI, 2023-01-06)
A parallel continuum manipulator (PCM) is a mechanism of closed-loop morphology with flexible elements such that their deformation contributes to its mobility. Flexible hexapods are six-degrees-of-freedom (DoF) fully ...
Novel Assessment Methodology for Laser Metal Deposition of New Metallic Alloys
(MDPI, 2023-01-09)
Metal additive manufacturing technologies are gaining great interest. However, the existing metallic alloys are generally formulated for conventional manufacturing processes. Thus, it is necessary to adapt their chemical ...
Impact of In-Soil Ageing Effect on PLA Printed Parts Tensile Properties
(MDPI, 2023-02-09)
Material extrusion (MEX), more commonly known as fused deposition modelling (FDM/FFF), is one of the most widely used techniques in polymeric Additive Manufacturing (AM). This technology is increasingly present in fields ...
