the aim of this study was to determine the most suitable shaking frequency and amplitude for shake harvesting esfahan's edible fig (ficus carica cv. sabz). a hand held limb shaker with adjustable shaking frequency and amplitude was used for this study. a 3x3 factorial experiment with three levels of oscillating frequency (10, 12 and 14 hz) and three levels of shaking amplitude (20, 32.5 and 45 ...

In many works on the material removal in the Chemical Mechanical Process (CMP), the effects of several process parameters have been addressed. However, a thorough understanding of the mechanisms of material removal and a model to correlate the process parameters to material removal rate (MRR) are still lacking. This appendix develops such models for polishing based on the results from the pin-o...

Rotary ultrasonic machining is one of the nontraditional machining processes for advanced ceramics. Currently available in literature are publications on theoretical and experimental studies on material removal rates in rotary ultrasonic machining. However, there is no report on the systematic study of the cutting force in rotary ultrasonic machining. Furthermore, the effects of some process pa...

The objective of the present work was to investigate the effect of the wire electrical discharge machining process parameters on material removal rate of titanium alloy using Taguchi approach. A brass wire of 250μm was applied as a tool electrode to cut the specimen. L36 mixed orthogonal array (2 ×3) has been selected for experimentation under different variables like dielectric conductivity, p...

Machining of medium Brass alloy is very difficult. There are a number of parameters like cutting speed, feed and depth of cut etc. which must be given consideration during the machining of medium Brass alloy. This study investigates the effects of process parameters on Material Removal Rate (MRR) in turning of C34000. The single response optimization problems i.e. optimization of MRR is solved ...

The challenge of current manufacturing industries is increase production rate in order to maintain their competitiveness in market.This paper investigates the effect of spindle speed and feed on material removal rate in turning operation execute on conventional lathe machine. An effort has been made to model the one response variable using Taguchi and ANOVA method. Taguchi L9 orthogonal array i...

Oxide CMP process is used in wafer fabrication to polish dielectric films. At the advance technology nodes, due to the complexity in the circuit design, CMP requirement has increased tremendously. Pattern density variations inside the die area increase especially in the big die size codes. It creates challenges for within die uniformity. Developing a cost effective process required high polish ...
