For the construction of composite surfaces interpolating a given curve net a new local twist estimator was proposed recently (Farin and Hagen, 1992). Some properties of this estimator—including an explicit representation for Gaussian curvature K at the knots of the curve net—are presented in this note. 相似文献
The useful life of a cutting tool and its operating conditions largely control the economics of the machining operations. Hence, it is imperative that the condition of the cutting tool, particularly some indication as to when it requires changing, to be monitored. The drilling operation is frequently used as a preliminary step for many operations like boring, reaming and tapping, however, the operation itself is complex and demanding.
Back propagation neural networks were used for detection of drill wear. The neural network consisted of three layers input, hidden and output. Drill size, feed, spindle speed, torque, machining time and thrust force are given as inputs to the ANN and the flank wear was estimated. Drilling experiments with 8 mm drill size were performed by changing the cutting speed and feed at two different levels. The number of neurons in the hidden layer were selected from 1, 2, 3, …, 20. The learning rate was selected as 0.01 and no smoothing factor was used. The estimated values of tool wear were obtained by statistical analysis and by various neural network structures. Comparative analysis has been done between statistical analysis, neural network structures and the actual values of tool wear obtained by experimentation. 相似文献
Among all machining operations, drilling using twist drill is the most frequently applied for secondary machining of composite materials owing to the need for structure joining. Delamination is mostly considered as the principal failure model in drilling of composite materials. Drill wear is a serious concern in hole-making industry, as it is necessary to prevent damage of cutting tools, machine tools and workpieces. The industrial experience shows the worn drill causes more delamination. This paper presents a comprehensive analysis of delamination caused by the drill wear for twist drill in drilling carbon fiber-reinforced composite materials. The critical thrust force at the onset of delamination for worn drill is predicted and compared with that of ideal drill. The experimental results demonstrate that though the critical thrust force is higher with increasing wear ratio, the delamination becomes more liable to occur because the actual thrust force increases to larger extent, as the thrust factor (Z) illustrates. Compared to sharp drill, the worn twist drill allows for lower feed rate below which the delamination damage can be avoided. 相似文献
Recently, simple shear extrusion (SSE) and twist extrusion (TE) are introduced to fabricate ultrafine grained bulk rod metallic materials. The SSE and TE processes generate significant deformation inhomogeneity, with higher and lower strains in the center, respectively, which easily causes mechanical instability of the materials. In this study, to overcome this deformation inhomogeneity problem in SSE and TE, a tandem process of SSE and TE (TST) is suggested. The finite element method is applied for plastic deformation behavior during the TST process. The results demonstrate that the TST process can produce relatively homogeneously deformed materials. In particular, the effects of back pressure and processing order on the plastic deformation behaviors in the TST process are systematically analyzed. 相似文献
