Presented is an experimental investigation of the machining characteristics and the effect of wire electrical discharge machine (WEDM) process parameters during machining of Al/ZrO2(p) particulate reinforced metal matrix composite (PRMMC). Experiments are carried out to investigate the effects of input parameters such as dielectric conductivity, pulse width, time between pulses, maximum feed ra...

this work presents an experimental investigation of the influence of the six important machining parameters (tool nose radius, tool rake angle, feed rate, cutting speed, cutting environment (dry, wet and cooled) and depth of cut) on surface roughness & material removal rate in the machining unidirectional glass fiber reinforced plastics (ud-gfrp) composite using carbide (k10) cutting tool durin...

Abstract Hydroxyapatite (HAp) has been widely applied in the area of tissue engineering, however, its poor mechanical properties limit it load bearing biomedical application. To improve integrity HAp, this study reports synthesis, optimization and significance processing parameters on physic-mechanical HAp. The HAp was produced from biogenic source through at 900 °C. L9 Taguchi orthogonal array...

In this study, amine functionalized Kit-6 silica mesoporous magnetite nanocomposite (NH2-MMNC) was synthesized by chemical methods and used as an efficient and recoverable adsorbent for removal of Ponceau 4R, as a toxic dye, from aqueous solutions. The synthesized nanocomposites were characterized by XRD, FT-IR, BET and SEM instruments. The effect of various experimental parameters on the dye r...

The aim of this paper to review the Taguchi based Grey relational analysis is used to find the best process parameters and improved quality results. The GRA was proposed to optimize the multi response problem by making use of the grey relational coefficient and grey relational grade. GRA is attempted to integrate multiple responses, it is feasible to combine GRA with Taguchi method to provide a...

In the present study, parameters of tool rotation speed, tool travel speed and tool offsetting with different levels were used in the friction stir welding (FSW) of aluminum-copper tailor welded blanks (TWBs). The FSW of pure copper to 5052 aluminum alloy were carried out by varying tool rotation speed from 800 rpm to 1200 rpm, tool travel speed from 40 mm/min to 80 mm/min and tool offsetting f...

In this paper experimentally, the friction-stir welding of the polypropylene sheets with 40% glass fiber has been investigated. Comparison to other welding methods, the strength of the joint is the most important feature in this process. Many parameters such as tool geometry, rotational speed, linear velocity, and tilt angle are very important as input parameters in this type of welding. Theref...

Machining through turning was carried out in a lathe to study the chip formation of Multiphase Ferrite (F-B-M) microalloyed steel. Taguchi orthogonal array was employed to perform the machining. Continuous and discontinuous chips were formed for different cutting parameters like speed, feed and depth of cut. Optical and scanning electron microscope was employed to identify the chip morphology. ...
