Enhancing surface integrity of A7050-T7451 aluminium alloy by pneumatic machine hammer peening
(Elsevier Ltd., 2022)
Aerostructures withstand cyclic mechanical loads and therefore, their design must fulfil surface integrity and fatigue strength requirements. This paper studies the effect of pneumatic machine hammer peening on surface ...
Heat transferred to the workpiece based on temperature measurements by IR technique in dry and lubricated drilling of Inconel 718
(Elsevier, 2016)
In manufacturing aeronautical critical components, such as turbine discs commonly made of Inconel 718, surface integrity is crucial to ensure their fatigue life. Among the machining processes used, the drilling operation ...
Sensitivity Analysis of Various Geometries of PCD and Cemented Tungsten Carbide Cutting Tools during the Milling of GFRP Composite
(MDPI, 2022)
Although much research has been carried out in the field of the milling of GFRP (Glass Fibre Reinforced Polymer) composites, the complexity of the process is such that it is still not mastered in many industrial cases. The ...
Hole quality improvement in CFRP/Ti6Al4V stacks using optimised flow rates for LCO2 and MQL sustainable cooling/lubrication
(Elsevier, 2024)
Carbon fibre reinforced polymer/titanium stacks (CFRP/Ti6Al4V) are employed in aeronautics due to their excellent weight-to-strength ratio and corrosion properties. However, these same material properties present challenges ...
Optimal manufacturing configuration selection: sequential decision making and optimization using reinforcement learning
(Elsevier, 2023)
In manufacturing, different costs must be considered when selecting the optimal manufacturing configuration. Costs include manufacturing costs, material costs, labor costs, and overhead costs. Optimal manufacturing ...
Effect of Tool Geometry and LCO2 Cooling on Cutting Forces and Delamination when Drilling CFRP Composites Using PCD Tools
(Elsevier, 2022)
Lightweight materials like Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymers (CFRPs) present certain challenges, mainly regarding the resultant surface integrity of the holes. Different techniques such as optimized tool geometries, machining ...
Correcting distortions of thin-walled machined parts by machine hammer peening
(Elsevier, 2023)
Thin-walled aerostructural components frequently get distorted after the machining process. Reworking to correct distortions or eventually rejecting parts significantly increases the cost. This paper proposes a new approach ...
Tool Geometry Optimisation for LCO2 Assisted Milling of Ti6Al4V
(Elsevier, 2024)
Titanium alloy Ti6Al4V is of great importance to the aeronautical and medical sectors due to its mechanical properties such as a high strength-to-weight ratio and corrosion resistance. On the downside, machining Ti6Al4V ...
