We study the cutting problems of meanders using 2-Motzkin words. These words uniquely define elevated peakless Motzkin paths, which under specific conditions correspond to meanders. A procedure for the determination of the set of meanders with a given sequence of cutting degrees, or with a given cutting degree, is presented by using proper conditions.

The paper proposes a new optimization technique based on genetic algorithms for the determination of the cutting parameters in machining operations. In metal cutting processes, cutting conditions have an influence on reducing the production cost and time and deciding the quality of a final product. This paper presents a new methodology for continual improvement of cutting conditions with GA (Ge...

This article reports the effects of various artificial aging methods and lubrication modes (dry, mist, wet) on the recorded cutting forces and chip morphology in drilling Al-Si-Mg (A356) cast alloys. In the course of this work, the work part sampled were as-received alloy (T0), solution heat-treated alloy (SHT) and then aged alloys at 155°C, 180°C, and 220°C (T4, T6, T61, T7), respectively. The...

High speed cutting is advantageous due to the reduced forces and power, increased energy savings, and overall improved productivity for discrete-part metal manufacturing. However, tool edge geometry and combined cutting conditions highly affects the performance of high speed cutting. In this study, mechanics of cutting with curvilinear (round and oval-like) edge preparation tools in the presenc...

A judicious choice of insert material, tool geometry and cutting conditions can make hard turning produce better surfaces than grinding. In the present study, an attempt has been made to investigate the effect of cutting tool materials on cutting forces (feed force, thrust force and cutting force) in finish hard turning of AISI D2 cold work tool steel. In conclusion of the results obtained with...

the use of titanium and its alloys has increased in various industries recently, because of their superior properties of these alloys. titanium alloys are generally classified as difficult to machine materials because of their thermo-mechanical properties such as high strength-to-weight ratio and low thermal conductivity. laser assisted machining (lam) improves the machinability of high strengt...

The drilling is well known as one of the most common hole making processes in the industry.Due to close tolerance requirement for drilled holes in the most of work pieces, onlinecontrolling of the diameter of drilled holes seems to be necessary. In the current work, an onlinedimensional controlling system was developed for drilling process. Doing this, drilling processwas executed in different ...
