A new lapping method is proposed for internal cylindrical surfaces finishing. Regression analysis and artificial neural network (ANN) were used for modeling this lapping process and predicting the effects of parameters of rotational speed of the lapping tool (ω), the length of the lapping tool (L) and difference in external diameter of the lapping tool and internal diameter of the workpiece (D) on the material removal rate (MRR), out-of-cylindricity (C) and surface roughness (Ra) of the lapped holes. Comparison of the results of the regression and ANN models with the values obtained from the experiments indicates that the MRR, Ra and C are more accurately predicted using ANN models. MRR, Ra and C of the lapped holes have been optimized using genetic algorithm (GA) and particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm. The results show that the highest MRR, which is equal to 2029 μg/min, has been achieved at ω of 400 rpm, D of 0.1 mm and L of 45 mm. The lowest Ra of the lapped hole is 64 nm which has been obtained at ω of 100 rpm, D of 0.1 mm and L of 20.82 mm. The minimum C of the lapped hole is 3 μm, which was obtained at ω of 212 rpm, D of 0.1 mm and L of 28.3 mm. The most important problem in the lapping process is the low MRR which causes increased cost and production time. Therefore, in the lapping process, the selection of conditions, that in addition to the production of pieces with geometric accuracy and surface roughness needing a high MRR, is very important. In this study, MRR, Ra and cylindricity of the lapped holes was optimized using multi-objective PSO (MOPSO) algorithm and non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm II (NSGA II), and the Pareto optimal solutions were obtained. Comparison of the results obtained from NSGA II and MOPSO shows that both of these algorithms can achieve optimal Pareto front with the same accuracy, but the time required to reach the MOPSO algorithm to the optimal Pareto front is 25 % less than the NSGA II.
The problem of robust finite-time chaos synchronization between two chaotic nonlinear gyroscopes with model uncertainties, external disturbances and unknown parameters is investigated. Appropriate adaptive laws are derived to tackle the unknown parameters. Based on the adaptive laws and the finite-time control technique, suitable adaptive control laws are designed to ensure the stability of the resulting synchronization error system in a given finite time. Numerical simulations and comparative examples are presented to illustrate the applicability and usefulness of the proposed finite-time control strategy. 相似文献
Micromechanical machining, which is the mechanical removal of materials using miniature cutting tools, is one of the fabrication methods in the microrealm that has recently attracted a great deal of attention because it has the advantage of being able to machine complex shapes from brittle materials. The most challenging problem in the mechanical machining of brittle material is the fabrication of fracture-free surfaces. To avoid brittle fractures, a thorough investigation is required to find the machining parameters in the ductile cutting regime, which is characterized by plastic deformation of the material when the chip thickness is smaller than the critical value. In this study, cutting forces and surface characteristics of soda lime glass are examined in detail. Conical scratch tests are performed to identify the critical chip thickness, and the cutting forces in the ductile regime are modeled. In addition, coated ball end mill cutters were used to perform machining on inclined soda lime glass to investigate the feed rate effects, up and down milling, and depth of cuts on the surface finish and to examine tool wear. 相似文献
A new method is developed to derive equilibrium equations of Metal-Ceramic beams based on first order shear deformation plate theory which is named first order shear deformation beam theory2(FSDBT2). Equilibrium equations obtained from conventional method (FSDBT1) is compared with FSDBT2 and the case of cylindrical bending of Metal-Ceramic composite plates for non-linear thermomechanical deformations and various loadings and boundary conditions. These equations are solved by using three different methods (analytical, perturbation technique and finite element solution). The through-thickness variation of the volume fraction of the ceramic phase in a Metal-Ceramic beam is assumed to be given by a power-law type function. The non-linear strain-displacement relations in the von-Kármán sense are used to study the effect of geometric non-linearity. Also, four other representative averaging estimation methods, the linear rule, Mori-Tanaka, Self-Consistent and Wakashima-Tsukamoto schemes, by comparing with the power-law type function are also investigated. Temperature distribution through the thickness of the beams in thermal loadings is obtained by solving the one-dimensional heat transfer equation. Finally it is concluded that for Metal-Ceramic composites, these two theories result in identical static responses. Also the displacement field and equilibrium equations in the case of cylindrical bending of Metal-Ceramic plates are the same as those supposed in FSDBT2. 相似文献
In the real world, applications with very large state and action spaces and unknown state transition probability, classical reinforcement learning algorithms usually show poor performance. One way to address the performance problem is to approximate the policy or value function. Fuzzy rule-based systems are amongst the well-known function approximators. This paper presents a Flexible Fuzzy Reinforcement Learning algorithm, in which value function is approximated by a fuzzy rule-based system. The proposed algorithm has a separate module for tuning the structure of fuzzy rules. Moreover, the parameters of the system are tuned during the learning phase. Next, the proposed algorithm is applied to the problem of inventory control in supply chains. In this problem, a fuzzy agent (supplier) should determine the amount of orders for each retailer based on their utility for supplier, by considering its limited supply capacity. Finally, a simulation is performed to show the capability of the proposed algorithm. 相似文献
In this paper, a pseudo particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm is presented to solve the Resource-Constrained Project Scheduling Problem (RCPSP). The proposed algorithm uses the path relinking procedure as a way for the particles in PSO to fly toward local and global best positions. In order to prevent the premature convergence, a mechanism for maintaining the swarm diversity is used. The pseudo PSO algorithm imposes a distance greater than a threshold between the particles in the swarm. The distance threshold is reduced as the iteration number is increased. Extensive computational experiments were executed on standard benchmark problem sets of PSPLIB. The computational results show that the algorithm outperforms all of the other PSO approaches (known by the authors) applied to RCPSP and for the instance set j30, is competitive with the state of the art meta-heuristics. 相似文献
New microproducts need the utilization of a diversity of materials and have complicated three-dimensional (3D) microstructures with high aspect ratios. To date, many micromanufacturing processes have been developed but specific class of such processes are applicable for fabrication of functional and true 3D microcomponents/assemblies. The aptitude to process a broad range of materials and the ability to fabricate functional and geometrically complicated 3D microstructures provides the additive manufacturing (AM) processes some profits over traditional methods, such as lithography-based or micromachining approaches investigated widely in the past. In this paper, 3D micro-AM processes have been classified into three main groups, including scalable micro-AM systems, 3D direct writing, and hybrid processes, and the key processes have been reviewed comprehensively. Principle and recent progress of each 3D micro-AM process has been described, and the advantages and disadvantages of each process have been presented. 相似文献
Tunnel design and construction consist of multiple sub-processes among which the selection of proper ventilation system is one of the most important issues. In this problem, several criteria are included in the process; therefore, multi-attribute decision making (MADM) tools should be used for the purpose. One of frequently used MADM methods is fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (AHP) in which uncertainty is also taken into account in the decision-making process. In this paper, using fuzzy data envelopment analysis, a new approach is presented for ranking the alternatives in fuzzy AHP. In this approach, the fuzzy nature of data is kept in all steps of the approach. Furthermore, to determine the consistency level of fuzzy pairwise comparison matrix, an appropriate index is used. Then, the proposed approach is used for selecting the best tunnel ventilation system. 相似文献
