Hybrid (CNC+Laser) Process for Polymer Welding

Hybrid Control and Verification of a Pulsed Welding Process

Currently systems, which are desired to control, are becoming more and more complex and classical control theory objectives, such as stability or sensitivity, are often not sufficient to cover the control objectives of the systems. In this paper it is shown how the dynamics of a pulsed welding process can be reformulated into a timed automaton hybrid setting and subsequently properties such as ...

A Ga–ann Hybrid Model for Prediction and Optimization of Co2 Laser-mig Hybrid Welding Process

The paper presents a hybrid model of an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) and Genetic Algorithm (GA) for modeling of a hybrid laser welding process. This model is employed for the prediction and optimization of penetration depth with corresponding process parameters. A single program developed for the purpose initially establishes an optimized ANN architecture using a Back-Propagation Neural Netw...

Intelligent Systems for Welding Process

This paper presents and evaluates the concept and implementation of two distinct multisensor systems for the automated manufacturing based on parallel hardware. In the most sophisticated implementation, 12 processors had been integrated in a parallel multi-sensor system. Some specialized nodes implement an Artificial Neural Network, used to improve photogrammetry-based computer vision, and Fuzz...

Hybrid Nanomanufacturing Process for High-Rate Polymer Nanofiber Production

Nanotechnology and nanomaterials have the potential to revolutionize existing and create entirely new industries. Unique physical, mechanical, chemical, and biological properties of nanomaterials have been extensively documented in the last two decades. However, most nanomaterials are discontinuous in nature, creating problems with their processing and manipulation into devices and raising heal...
