The implementation of energy maximising control systems (EMCSs) in wave energy converter (WEC) devices is an important step towards commercially viable operation of WECs. During the design stage of such EMCSs, linear ...

Large aluminium monolithic parts used in the aeronautic industry frequently show significant geometric distortions after the machining process. These distortions are the consequence of the initial residual stresses of the ...

This article discusses how a business model based on traditional maintenance can evolve to generate servitization strategies, with the help of remote maintenance support. The application of cyber-physical systems and cloud ...

CAD systems are indispensable tools in the product design and development process. Through the creation of parametric 3D models,they increase productivity, enable the design of highly complex parts, improve ...

A damage phenomenon called fretting fatigue frequently takes place when two contact bodies are clamped together under a normal contact load along with a small-scale oscillatory motion due to cyclic loading. In contrast to ...

Some industrial applications require structured surfaces with high roughness values to ensure their functionality (Ra > 1 µm, Rmax < 30 µm). In order to obtain these structured surfaces with high roughness values, face ...

In recent years, most content-based spam filters have been implemented using Machine Learning (ML) approaches by means of token-based representations of textual contents. After introducing multiple performance enhancements, ...

In machining of Ti-6Al-4V, it is commonly reported the appearance of segmented chip produced by adiabatic shearing (at high cutting speeds) and lack of ductility (at low cutting speeds). Moreover, machining is a manufacturing ...

Tool condition monitoring have an important role in machining processes to reduce defective component and ensure quality requirements. Stopping the process before the tool breaks or an excessive tool wear is reached can ...
