Due to its numerous advantages such as reduction of machining force and surface roughness, ultrasonic-vibration assisted turning process has been extensively investigated. In the present paper, a new vibration analysis has been done and it has been shown that in the case of rigid workpiece or stable cutting ratio, negligible diametrical error is created by tool vibration in vibration turning which is not present in conventional turning. On the other part of the study, flexible workpiece has been considered and workpiece deformation has been investigated. It has been shown that in this case, the cutting ratio experiences an increasing trend from spindle to free end of one-end fixed workpiece. It has been also shown that the experimental results are in good agreement with analysis. Workpiece diametrical error in conventional turning is about twice in vibration turning.

In this paper, a dual-wideband bandpass filter (BPF) with independently controllable center frequencies (CFs) and wide stopband suppression is presented using a new quintuple-mode resonator (QMR). By applying the classical odd-/even-mode analysis method, the resonant characteristics of the new QMR have been analyzed. It shows that five modes can be excited, and two of them can be employed to form the lower passband, while the other three modes contribute to the higher passband. For verification, a dual-wideband BPF using the new QMR is designed, fabricated, and tested. Experimental results show that the CFs of the dual-wideband BPF centered at 2.96 GHz and 5.695 GHz with 3 dB fractional bandwidths of 27.7 and 23.4%, respectively. In addition, 20-dB suppression in upper-stopband ranges from 2.23 to 4.04f0, where f0 is the center frequency of the first passband. The measurement results are in good agreement with the prediction results.

The single point cutting tool in ultrasonic vibration-assisted turning (UAT) is made to vibrate under ultrasonic frequency. In present study, the influence of various parameters such as vibration amplitude, depth of cut, feed rate and cutting velocity on the machining force and workpiece's surface roughness in UAT of Al7075 has been investigated. Full factorial experiments were carried out with an ultrasonic frequency range of 20±0.5 kHz. ANOVA was conducted on the experimental results and regression models were obtained for predicting the machining force, surface roughness and cutting temperature. The proposed models were verified by further experiments. The robustness of the proposed models was then investigated whence the optimal parameters were estimated. Similar full factorial experiments were also carried out with conventional turning (CT) in order to compare the results with those of UAT.

This study aimed to establish an automatic sewing process for garment production according to textile properties. An automatic feeding system and a self-made template were introduced to an industrial sewing machine. Two types of stitches were performed on fabrics with various physical properties and surface roughness using this automatic sewing machine. The appearance, stitch length and width, seam strength, and seam efficiency were evaluated according to the sewing conditions, such as presser height and sewing speed. In addition, the correlation between textile properties, sewing conditions, and sewability was analyzed to derive a regression equation for sewability. The evaluation showed no difference in the lock stitch condition. On the other hand, under the zigzag stitch condition, the stitch width differed according to the presser height, which also affected the seam structure. The optimal presser height for each fabric was derived from the experimental results. In terms of the sewing speed, however, the seam strength was the best at 200 RPM in the lock stitch and 400 RPM in the zigzag stitch. The moderating effect of the presser height between textile properties and sewability in the lock stitch condition was confirmed. This result can be used as basic data for establishing an automatic sewing process for smart factories.

The design of mass diffusion columns operated with partition membranes, for the separation of light gaseous isotopes, is discussed. A theoretical analysis of experimental results obtained indicates that a good agreement between experimental results and theory is only obtained at low column pressures and moderate countercurrent flow rates. At fairly low countercurrent flow rates mixing effects due to viscous dragging and gas solubility by the condensate appear to be considerable whereas excessively high countercurrent flow rates, on the other hand, also seem undesirable. Some suggestions are proposed to obviate impairing effects at least to some extent.

In present study, neural networks have been employed for studying the ultrasonic vibration-assisted turning (UAT) process and for predicting the machining force and workpiece's surface roughness. Extensive experiments were carried out using different values of UAT parameters such as vibration amplitude, depth of cut, feed rate and cutting speed. The tests were implemented on the basis of full factorial design of experiments for three different levels of each UAT parameter. The machining force and workpiece's surface roughness were measured as the responses of the experiments and were subsequently modeled with the aid of back propagation multilayer perceptron neural network for 1.1191 steel. The nonlinear relation existing between the aforementioned UAT parameters and the machining force and workpiec's surface roughness could effectively be modeled by the developed networks and the responses error could be kept less than ten percent. This was verified by further experiments different from those carried out for developing the network.

The machinability of three commercial samples of the 6351 aluminum alloy with different silicon content was investigated in this work. Several parameters were used to evaluate the machinability in turning process, including the quality of the machined surface and cutting force. A design of experiments with three levels was used focusing on low values of feed rate (0.10, 0.15 and 0.2 mm/rev). The other parameters involved were: depth of cut (1.0, 1.5 and 2.0 mm), the silicon content (1.1, 1.2 and 1.3%) and two sets of cutting speed, one in the build up edge region (80, 100 and 120 m/min) and the other in a built up edge free region (200, 600 and 1000 m/min). The surface roughness parameter evaluated was Rq. A second design of experiment with three levels using higher values of feed rate (0.2, 0.35 and 0.5 mm/rev) and depth of cut of 2.0 mm was used to evaluate the influence of the silicon content in the cutting force. The effect of cutting fluid (dry machining, minimum quantity of fluid and over head cooling) was also analyzed. The results show that the silicon content has influence on the surface roughness. The statistical model in the build up edge region explains 79.95% of the total variation of roughness and 99% for cutting forces, for the other region this value is 81.99% for surface roughness and 98.96% for cutting force. The diameter of the workpiece has an influence on the results because the variation of hardness.

This paper describes an applicability of modified Reynolds equation considering the combined effects of turbulence and surface roughness, which was derived by Hashimoto and Wada (1989), to high-speed journal bearing analysis by comparing the theoretical results with experimental ones. In the numerical analysis of modified Reynolds equation, the nonlinear simultaneous equations for the turbulent correction coefficients are greatly simplified to save computation time with a satisfactory accuracy under the assumption that the shear flow is superior to the pressure flow in the lubricant films. The numerical results of Sommerfeld number and attitude angle are compared with the experimental results to confirm the applicability of the modified Reynolds equation in the case of two types of bearings with different relative roughness heights. Good agreement was obtained between theoretical and experimental results.

In synchronous belt drives, a transmission error is generated due to resonance of the belt spanning the driving and driven pulleys when the transverse natural frequency of the belt approaches the meshing frequency of the belt and the pulley teeth. The behavior of this transmission error has been assumed to be dependent on the installation tension. In the present study, the influence of the installation tension on the transmission error in a synchronous belt drive under no transmitted load was experimentally investigated for the case in which first mode vibration due to resonance was induced in both the upper and lower spans. In addition, an analysis of the transmission error based on the experimental results was carried out. A method for reducing the error was also investigated. The transmission error contains two components: one with a period equal to the pitch of the pulley, and the other with a period of half the pulley pitch. Good agreement was found between the calculation and experimental results, thus confirming the validity of the analysis method. For a fixed pulley speed, the transmission error was largest when the installation tension was applied at a position where the displacement of the upper span was equal to that of the lower span. It was found that the transmission error could be reduced by pushing an idler lightly against the center of the span of the belt that was undergoing the largest displacement.

Multi-track laser cladding is necessary in the forming of parts. The overlap between neighbor tracks plays an important role, which determines the quality and surface smoothness of the clad layer. In this paper, numerical simulation of the multi-track laser cladding process is studied. The heat source of laser spot is applied by updating the profile of clad region and the location of the moving laser spot. The clad profile of overlapped track was obtained, from which the surface roughness was analyzed by the variation of overlap ratio. Meanwhile, experiments were carried out to evaluate the effect of overlap ratio. The simulated and the experimental results are in good agreement; both show that there is an optimal overlap ratio to achieve best surface roughness.

Ultrasonic vibration assisted electrical discharge surface modification was studied in the paper. The influence of ultrasonic vibration amplitude and frequency on the modification layer performance, such as surface roughness, sectional morphology, micro hardness and wear resistance was investigated. Experimental results show that ultrasonic vibration assisted electrical discharge surface modification can improve surface roughness and make the melting material well-distributed. The surfaces have higher micro hardness and wear resistance when the tool electrode is assisted with ultrasonic vibration.
