Super Abrasive Machining of Integral Rotary Components Using Grinding Flank Tools
(MDPI, 2018-01-01)
Manufacturing techniques that are applied to turbomachinery components represent a challenge in the aeronautic sector. These components require high resistant super-alloys in order to satisfy the extreme working conditions ...
Drilling Process in γ-TiAl Intermetallic Alloys
(MDPI, 2018-11-26)
Gamma titanium aluminides (gamma-TiAl) present an excellent behavior under high temperature conditions, being a feasible alternative to nickel-based superalloy components in the aeroengine sector. However, considered as a ...
An efficient LDU algorithm for the minimal least squares solution of linear systems
(Elsevier, 2018-12-15)
The minimal least squares solutions is a topic of interest due to the broad range of applications of this problem. Although it can be obtained from other algorithms, such as the Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) or the ...
Automatic Analysis of Archimedes’ Spiral for Characterization of Genetic Essential Tremor Based on Shannon’s Entropy and Fractal Dimension
(MDPI, 2018-07)
Among neural disorders related to movement, essential tremor has the highest prevalence; in fact, it is twenty times more common than Parkinson's disease. The drawing of the Archimedes' spiral is the gold standard test to ...
On the Influence of Infra-Red Sensor in the Accurate Estimation of Grinding Temperatures
(MDPI, 2018-11-26)
Workpiece rejection originated by thermal damage is of great concern in high added-value industries, such as automotive or aerospace. Surface temperature control is vital to avoid this kind of damage. Difficulties in ...
New Procedure for Compacting Prismatic Specimens of Cement-Treated Base Materials
(MDPI, 2018-07)
Understanding the long-term behaviour of cement-treated base materials is a key factor to improve its design and obtain environmentally friendly pavement base materials. Their characterization requires manufacturing prismatic ...
Microtab design and implementation on a 5MW wind turbine
(MDPI, 2017-05-24)
Microtabs (MT) consist of a small tab placed on the airfoil surface close to the trailing edge and perpendicular to the surface. A study to find the optimal position to improve airfoil aerodynamic performance is presented. ...
Unsupervised Machine Learning for Advanced Tolerance Monitoring of Wire Electrical Discharge Machining of Disc Turbine Fir-Tree Slots
(MDPI, 2018-10-08)
Manufacturing more efficient low pressure turbines has become a topic of primary importance for aerospace companies. Specifically, wire electrical discharge machining of disc turbine fir-tree slots has attracted increasing ...
Mechatronic modeling of a parallel kinematics multi-axial simulation table based on decoupling the actuators and manipulator dynamics
(Elsevier, 2016-11-07)
In this work a mechatronic model was developed for a parallel Multi-Axial Simulation Table (MAST) mechanism. The dynamics of the mechanism was obtained using the principle of energy equivalence and Boltzmann–Hamel equations. ...
Translational parallel manipulator with Pa2 kinematic joints
(Springer, 2016-10-01)
The kinematic pair Pa2 is composed of two interlinked parallelograms. It has two degrees of freedom that generate a translational plane variable with position. It has a structure different from the PaPa pair, which is ...
