Effect of Boron Content and Cooling Rate on the Microstructure and Boride Formation of β-Solidifying γ-TiAl TNM Alloy
(MDPI AG, 2020)
Boron is a unique and popular grain refiner element in cast titanium aluminide (TiAl) alloys, as it helps to improve mechanical properties if properly alloyed. However, the formation mechanism of different types of borides ...
Systematic complexity reduction of wave-to-wire models for wave energy system design
(Elsevier Ltd., 2020)
Wave-to-wire models are valuable tools for a variety of applications in the development of successful wave energy converters. However, computational requirements of these wave-to-wire models are often prohibitive for certain ...
Thermophoresis as a technique for separation of nanoparticle species in microfluidic devices
(Elsevier Masson SAS, 2020)
This paper presents numerical studies of thermophoresis approach for separation of nanoparticles in liquid media. We simulated the thermophoresis process to test it as a method of separation of particles in suspension. At ...
A novel forming technique to coforge bimetal components into complex geometries
(Elsevier Ltd., 2020)
The novel Near Solidus Forming process has been used to coforge stainless steel 304 to encapsulate a core of 42CrMo4 steel in Stainless 304 in the form of a complex spindle. The forging was achieved with a force of 280 t, ...
Optical Dual Laser Based Sensor Denoising for OnlineMetal Sheet Flatness Measurement Using Hermite Interpolation
(MDPI AG, 2020)
Flatness sensors are required for quality control of metal sheets obtained from steel coils by roller leveling and cutting systems. This article presents an innovative system for real-time robust surface estimation of ...
A Diagnostics Framework for Underground Power Cables Lifetime Estimation Under Uncertainty
(IEEE, 2020)
Power cables are critical assets for the reliable operation of the grid. The cable lifetime is generally estimated from the conductor temperature and associated lifetime reduction.
However, these tasks are intricate due ...
Towards the automation of the die spotting process: Contact blue pattern decryption
(Elsevier Ltd., 2020)
Automotive die spotting is one of the most complex and least standardized processes in the tool making process. A spotting expert identifies local contact areas through a blue-paste pattern and the die/sheet contact is ...
Discrete event simulation procedure to build the production digital twin of highly automated and complex production systemsProcedimiento de simulación por eventos discretos para crear un gemelo digital de sistemas de producción complejos y automatizados
(Federación de Asociaciones de Ingenieros Industriales de España, 2020)
Surface Integrity When Machining Inconel 718 Using Conventional Lubrication and Carbon Dioxide Coolant
(Elsevier Ltd., 2020)
Surface integrity induced by machining process affects strongly the performance of functional products, for instance, the fatigue life as well as the resistance to stress corrosion cracking. Consequently, it is relevant ...
Demand Driven MRP – The need to standardise an implementation process
(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2020)
Since the creation of the demand-driven material requirement planning (DDMRP) model, numerous studies have analysed the methodology’s significant impact on different organisations. Several successful cases and research ...
