in this work, an inverse finite element formulation was modified for considering material anisotropy in obtaining blank shape and forming severity of deep drawn orthotropic parts. in this procedure, geometry of final part and thickness of initial blank sheet were known. after applying ideal forming formulations between material points of initial blank and final shape, an equation system was obt...

Transfer Learning is a paradigm in machine learning to solve a target problem by reusing the learning with minor modifications from a different but related source problem. In this paper we propose a novel feature transference approach, especially when the source and the target problems are drawn from different distributions. We use deep neural networks to transfer either low or middle or higher...

Composite tissue-engineered constructs combining bone and soft tissue have applications in regenerative medicine, particularly dentistry. This study generated a tri-layer, electrospun, poly-ε-caprolactone membrane, with two microfiber layers separated by a layer of nanofibers, for the spatially segregated culture of mesenchymal progenitor cells (MPCs) and fibroblasts. The two cell types were se...

In search for new manufacturing process, Single Point Incremental Forming (SPIF) emerged to be one of the useful processes for forming complicated shapes. This is a flexible forming process which eliminates the die, punch and errors due to them. It is widely used for batch production of different shapes which has applications in diverse fields like automobile, aerospace, medical industry, packa...

Here we report a three-step growth method for high-quality mono-layer, bi-layer and tri-layer graphene with coverage ~90% at atmospheric pressure. The growth temperature and gas flow rate have been found to be the key factors. This method would be of great importance for the large scale production of graphene with defined thickness.
