An element-free Galerkin method approach for estimating sensitivity of machined surface parameters

The main objective of this study is to implement a parameter sensitivity analysis method to be used in the search of optimal machining conditions with respect to surface quality. Presently, the element-free Galerkin (EFGM) approximating functions are used to evaluate the properties of machined surfaces with cutting parameters when turning AISI 4140 steel using arbitrary sets of experimental values and the EFGM approximation functions, based on the moving least-squares method, in order to obtain the sensitivities through proper local derivations. This method shows the sensitivity of each surface parameter for each input variable. The variables investigated were cutting speed (v_c), depth of cut (a_p), feed rate (f) and the surface roughness (R_a). The sensitivity results showed that the feed rate has the highest influence on surface roughness when turning AISI 4140 steel followed by cutting speed and depth of cut.     

The growth of roughness during electrodeposition

Measurements of the growth rate of roughness on a cathode surface can be used to study the physics of cathodic processes. But these growth rates are cell wide variables and they ordinarily depend on what is taking place at the anode as well as at the cathode. Our aim is to derive a simple condition under which the anode makes no contribution to the interpretation of growth rate measurements at the cathode.Our condition stems from the contribution of ion diffusion to the growth rate and it is satisfied for all non-small values of the wave number of a growing disturbance. This, together with the fact that surface tension is the only stabilizing factor and the fact that the surface tension coefficient multiplying the wave number is small, means that the anode ought not to be important for the fastest growing wave numbers.Once the effect of the anode is eliminated, the growth rate at the cathode can be expressed in a formula so simple that pencil and paper calculations are possible and this makes important questions in cell design easy to answer, e.g., is the growth rate diffusion controlled?     

Bond of GFRP Bars in Concrete: Experimental Study and Analytical Interpretation

The local bond mechanics of glass-fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars in normal strength concrete was investigated through experimental testing and analytical modeling. The experimental program was comprised of 30 direct tension pullout specimens with short anchorages. A novel test setup, specially designed so as to minimize the spurious influence of testing conditions on measured bond properties was adopted in the study. Parameters considered were the bar roughness and diameter, the size effect expressed by the constant cover to bar diameter ratio, and the external confining pressure exerted over the anchorage length by transverse externally bonded FRP sheets. Results of the study were summarized in the form of local bond-slip curves, whereby performance limit states were quantified by the amount of loaded end slip and bond strength. An analytical model of the bond stress-slip response of a GFRP bar was derived from first principles and calibrated against the test data of the present investigation. Using the calibrated model, design values for bond and slip were estimated with reference to the code limit state model for bond.

Surface characterization of 6H-SiC (0001) substrates in indentation and abrasive machining

Surface characterization of 6H-SiC (0001) substrates in indentation and abrasive machining was carried out to investigate microfracture, residual damage, and surface roughness associated with material removal and surface generation. Brittle versus plastic deformation was studied using Vickers indention and nano-indentation. To characterize the abrasive machining response, the 6H-SiC (0001) substrates were ground using diamond wheels with grit sizes of 25, 15 and 7 μm, and then polished with diamond suspensions of 3 and 0.05 μm. It is found that in indentation, there was a scale effect for brittle versus plastic deformation in 6H-SiC substrates. Also, in grinding, the scales of fracture and surface roughness of the substrates decreased with a decrease in diamond grit size. However, in polishing, a reduction in grit size of diamond suspensions gave no significant improvement in surface roughness. Furthermore, the results showed that fracture-free 6H-SiC (0001) surfaces were generated in polishing with the existence of the residual crystal defects, which were associated with the origin of defects in single crystal growth.
