The effects of applied load, sliding speed and sliding distance on the dry sliding wear behavior of aged Al-SiCp-Gr composites were investigated. The specimen were fabricated by stir-casting technique. The pin-on-disc wear testing machine was used to investigate the wear rate by design of experiments based on L27 using Taguchi technique. Sliding distance was the most important variable that inf...

background: some studies have shown that casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate (cpp-acp) and acidulated phosphate fluoride (apf) gel can protect teeth against erosion. the aim of this study was to assess whether cpp-acp and fluoride could reduce enamel wear rates under erosive conditions simulating abrasion and acidic diet regimen. materials and methods: enamel specimens consisted o...

glassy carbon (gc) is the most commonly used carbon-based electrode in the analytical laboratory. because of the high background current and low electrode response, modification of this electrode can be done by various materials and techniques. an ionic liquid (il), 1-methyl-3-(3-trimethoxysilyl propyl) imidazoliumbis (trifluoromethylsulfonyl) imide, was covalently cross linked onto the gc surf...

In automation flexible manufacturing systems, tool wear detection during the cutting process is one of the most important considerations. This study presents an intelligent system for online tool condition monitoring in drilling process .In this paper, analytical and empirical models have been used to predict the thrust and cutting forces on the lip and chisel edges of a new drill. Also an empi...
