This paper presents the prediction of micro-milling forces using the finite element method (FE). An FE model of orthogonal micro-cutting with round cutting edge is developed. The cutting force coefficients are identified from a series of FE simulations at a range of cutting edge radii and chip loads. The identified cutting force coefficients are used to simulate micro-milling forces. The simula...

Simulation of fluidized bed reactor (FBR) was accomplished for treating wastewater using Fenton reaction, which is an advanced oxidation process (AOP). The simulation was performed to determine characteristics of FBR performance, concentration profile of the contaminants, and various prominent hydrodynamic properties (e.g., Reynolds number, velocity, and pressure) in the reactor. Simulation was...

In this research, finite element analysis of the conventional drilling and vibration assisted drilling is carried out. The ABAQUS software is employed for FE analysis. The Johnson-Cook models for both plastic deformation and damage are employed for FE simulation.The results of the FE analysis are then verified with experimental results in both conventional and vibration assisted drilling on Al ...

It is commonly postulated that local mechanics (tissue stress or strain) is related to stimuli for bone remodeling [1]. A micro finite element ( FE) solver was developed in our lab to numerically predict the local stress and strain in bone structure [2,3]. Micro-computed tomography ( CT) can provide high resolution image data suitable to the FE solver and allows non-destructive, three-dimension...

A finite element (FE) model of blood perfused biological tissue has been developed. Blood perfusion is described by fluid flow through a series of 5 intercommunicating vascular compartments that are embedded in the tissue. Each compartment is characterized by a blood flow permeability tensor, blood volume fraction and vessel compliance. Local non-linear relationships between intra-extra vascula...

Functional encryption (FE) has more fine-grained control to encrypted data than traditional encryption schemes. The well-accepted security of FE is indistinguishability-based security (IND-FE) and simulation-based security (SIMFE), but the security is not sufficient. For example, if an adversary has the ability to access a vector of ciphertexts and can ask to open some information of the messag...
