use of tailor-welded blanks (twbs) in production has significant advantages such as weight and cost reduction. however, their application requires processes that increase their poor formability in comparison to base materials. one of these procedures is the use of fluid pressure in sheet metal forming. in this paper hydro-mechanical deep drawing process of tailor-welded low carbon steel (st12) ...

mechanical weeding is one of the non-chemical methods to control weeds. in this paper a ‎new mechanism has been presented for mechanical cultivation. the machine works based on ‎the manual tools operation, which farmers still use in small scale for weeding and consists of a ‎number of four-bar linkage mechanisms. each mechanism consists of a blade which moves ‎forward (active course) and backwa...

In this paper, rod drawing process of strain-hardening materials is investigated by analytical, numerical and experimental methods. The classic upper bound solution, based on the assumption of perfect plasticity, has been extended to consider the work-hardening of the material during the drawing process. For a given process conditions and mechanical properties of the rod material, the power ter...

We deal with syntactic definitions and processing of program diagrams based on graph grammars with respect to the mechanical drawing. We propose an attribute NCE graph grammar of hierarchical diagrams such as structured program diagrams. We also propose attribute context-free and context-sensitive NCE graph grammars for nested and tessellation diagrams, respectively. Attribute rules are used fo...

A facile method termed magneto-mechanical drawing is used to produce polymer composite microfibers. Compared with electrospinning and other fiber spinning methods, magneto-mechanical drawing uses magnetic force generated by a permanent magnet to draw droplets of polymer/magnetic nanoparticle suspensions, leading to fabrication of composite microfibers. In addition, because of the rotating colle...
