Detailed Thermo-Kinematic Analysis of Face Grinding Operations with Straight Wheels
(MDPI, 2020-04-18)
This paper presents a new model that relates thermal aspects with process kinematics in face grinding applications with straight wheels. Changes in chip thickness along the contact area were considered in the model, which ...
Analysis of the Part Distortions for Inconel 718 SLM: A Case Study on the NIST Test Artifact
(MDPI, 2020-11-11)
The present paper evaluates the misalignment and geometry distortion of the standard National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) test artifact in Inconel 718 alloy, when several layers with and without supports ...
Study of the Environmental Implications of Using Metal Powder in Additive Manufacturing and Its Handling
(MDPI, 2020-02-17)
Additive Manufacturing, AM, is considered to be environmentally friendly when compared to conventional manufacturing processes. Most researchers focus on resource consumption when performing the corresponding Life Cycle ...
Threading Performance of Different Coatings for High Speed Steel Tapping
(MDPI, 2020-05-10)
Threading holes using tapping tools is a widely used machining operation in the industry. This manufacturing process involves a great tool immersion in the part, which involves both friction and cutting. This makes the use ...
A RE Methodology to achieve Accurate Polygon Models and NURBS Surfaces by Applying Different Data Processing Techniques
(MDPI, 2020-11-12)
The scope of this work is to present a reverse engineering (RE) methodology to achieve accurate polygon models for 3D printing or additive manufacturing (AM) applications, as well as NURBS (Non-Uniform Rational B-Splines) ...
Analysis and Economic Evaluation of the Use of Recycled Polyamide Powder in Masonry Mortars
(MDPI, 2020-11-11)
Due to the considerable amount of waste plastics and polymers that are produced annually, the introduction of these waste products in construction materials is becoming a recurrent solution to recycle them. Among polymers, ...
A Series of Vertical Deflections, a Promising Traffic Calming Measure: Analysis and Recommendations for Spacing
(MDPI, 2020-05-13)
Traffic calming measures (TCM) are placed in urban areas to improve road safety, and among them, vertical TCMs are widely employed. Many researches are focused on the influence of the geometry of each measure on speed ...
Semi-Active Magnetorheological Damper Device for Chatter Mitigation during Milling of Thin-Floor Components
(MDPI, 2020-07-31)
The productivity during the machining of thin-floor components is limited due to unstable vibrations, which lead to poor surface quality and part rejection at the last stage of the manufacturing process. In this article, ...
Special Issue on “Machining Dynamics and Parameters Process Optimization”
(MDPI, 2020-12-14)
In 1907, F.W Taylor—the father of production engineering—exposed the fundamentals of modern machining and defined chatter as the most obscure and delicate of all problems facing the machinist [...]
Uncharted Stable Peninsula for Multivariable Milling Tools by High-Order Homotopy Perturbation Method
(MDPI, 2020-11-06)
In this work, a new method for solving a delay differential equation (DDE) with multiple delays is presented by using second- and third-order polynomials to approximate the delayed terms using the enhanced homotopy ...
