To improve the efficiency of cylindrical plunge grinding, an optimization of grinding process is developed using the Acoustic emission (AE) signals. The relationship between the grinding feed and grinding depth is established based on the elastic deflection between wheel and workpiece. Acoustic emission (AE) signals are curve fitted through the gauss - Newton method to find the stable point of various grinding processes. Therefore, grinding time of each grinding stage is reduced to improve the grinding efficiency.

The material removal in grinding involves rubbing, ploughing and cutting. For grinding process monitoring, it is important to identify the effects of these different phenomena experienced during grinding. A fundamental investigation has been made with single grit cutting tests. Acoustic Emission (AE) signals would give the information relating to the groove profile in terms of material removal and deformation. A combination of filters, Short-Time Fourier Transform (STFT), Wavelets Transform (WT), statistical windowing of the WT with the kurtosis, variance, skew, mean and time constant measurements provided the principle components for classifying the different grinding phenomena. Identification of different grinding phenomena was achieved from the principle components being trained and tested against a Neural Network (NN) representation.

This work presents an experiment research on Acoustic emission (AE) signal and the surface roughness of cylindrical plunge grinding with the different infeed time. The changed infeed time of grinding process is researched as an important parameter to compare AE signals and surface roughnesses with the different infeed time in the grinding process. The experiment results show the AE signal is increased by the increased feed rate. In the infeed period of the grinding process, the surface roughness is increased at first, and then is decreased.

Abstract In order to realize the nondestructive testing (NDT) of the internal leakage fault of hydraulic spool valves, the internal leakage rate must be predicted by AE (acoustic emission) technology. An AE experimental platform of internal leakage of hydraulic spool valves is built to study the characteristics of AE signals of internal leakage and the relationship between AE signals and leakage rates. The research results show the AE signals present a wideband characteristic. The main frequencies are concentrated in 30~50 kHz and the peak frequency is around 40 kHz. When the leakage rate is large, there are significant signal characteristics appearing in the high frequency band of 75~100 kHz. The exponent of the root mean square(RMS) of AE signals is positively correlated with the exponent of the leakage rate only if the leakage rate is greater than 2~3 mL/min. This find could be used to predict the internal leakage rate of hydraulic spool valves.

A relationship developed earlier between acoustic emission signals and the process of athermal martensitic transformation based on the free energy associated with the process is extended and verified experimentally. The relationship is found to model the process characteristics very well. The intensity of AE signal generated during transformation was found to be proportional to the temperature derivative of the fraction of martensite, the cooling rate, and volume of specimen. The AE signal was also found to be related to the carbon content of the steel. During transformation, the signal intensity was found to increase to a peak, and then tail off near the end of the transformation. Values of the martensite start temperature obtained from plots of the total RMS squared AE signals were also found to correlate well with values from the literature.

This study was carried out to investigate the relationship between the strain and acoustic emission (AE) signals, thus, to confirm the capability of AE technique to monitor the fatigue failure mechanism of a steel component. To achieve this goal, strain and AE signals were captured on the steel specimen during the cyclic fatigue test.  Both signals were collected using specific data acquisition system by attaching the strain gauge and AE piezoelectric transducer simultaneously at the specimen during the test. The stress loading used for the test was set at 600 MPa, and the specimens were fabricated using the SAE 1045 carbon steel.  The related parameters for both signals were determined at every 2000 seconds until the specimen failed.  It was found that a meaningful correlation of all parameters, i.e. amplitude, kurtosis and energy, was established. Finally, all AE parameters are correlated with the damage values, which have been estimated using the Coffin-Manson model.  Hence, it was suggested that the AE technique can be used as a monitoring tool for fatigue failure mechanism in a steel component.

In this paper, in order to strengthen the prediction of rockburst and inquire the relationship between the rockburst proneness of rock and its AE characteristic, each kind of typical rock of volcanic, sedimentary and metamorphic were selected to doing indoor rock mechanics experiments. Calculate the rockburst proneness of these rocks by uniaxial compression tests. In uniaxial compression, we collect the entire process of AE signals by using acoustic emission instrument, then we analysis the AE characteristics of different rocks to inquire the relationship between the AE characteristic and its rockburst proneness.

In order to investigate the relationship between rock microfracture mechanism and acoustic emission (AE) signal characteristic parameters under split loads, the MTS322 servo-controlled rock mechanical test system was employed to carry out the Brazilian split tests on granite, marble, sandstone, and limestone, while FEI Quanta-200 scanning electron microscope system was employed to carry out the analysis of fracture morphology. The results indicate that different scales of mineral particle, mineral composition, and discontinuity have influence on the fracture characteristics of rock, as well as the b-value. The peak frequency distribution of the AE signal has obvious zonal features, and these distinct peak frequencies of four types of rock fall mostly in ranges of 0–100 kHz, 100–300 kHz, and above 300 kHz. Due to the different rock properties and mineral compositions, the proportions of peak frequencies in these intervals are also different among the four rocks, which are also acting on the b-value. In addition, for granite, the peak frequencies of AE signals are mostly distributed above 300 kHz for granite, marble, and limestone, which mainly derive from the internal fracture of k-feldspar minerals; for marble, the AE signals with peak frequency are mostly distributed in over 300 kHz, which mainly derive from the internal fracture of dolomite minerals and calcite minerals; AE signals for sandstone are mostly distributed in the range of 0–100 kHz, which mainly derive from the internal fracture of quartz minerals; for limestone, the AE signals with peak frequency are mostly distributed in over 300 kHz, which mainly derive from the internal fracture of granular-calcite minerals. The relationship between acoustic emission signal frequency of rock fracture and the fracture scale is constructed through experiments, which is of great help for in-depth understanding of the scaling relationship of rock fracture.

Wheel setting is difficult in a grinding process and may directly apply a negative impact on grinding accuracy and efficiency. This study presents a novel method for grinding wheel setting based on acoustic emissions. The method experimentally detects the acoustic emission (AE) signals that come from the touch-down of the grinding wheel with the workpiece. The experimental results show that the measured AE signals monotonically increase with grinding depth and can be used for detection of wheel setting in a grinding process with a detection accuracy better than 0.5μm.

This paper introduces a study on cost optimization of external cylindrical grinding. The effects of many grinding process parameters such as the initial grinding wheel diameter, the wheel life, the total dressing depth as well as the effect of cost components including the machine cost, the labor including overhead cost, the grinding wheel cost and so forth were taken into account. A model for calculation the optimum exchanged grinding wheel diameter was proposed. With this optimum diameter, a new and effective way of using the grinding wheel was proposed and both the grinding cost and grinding time can be reduced considerably.

Precision grinding on brittle materials accomplished without generating subsurface fracture damage is called ductile-regime grinding. The most important key point for maintaining a ductile material removal regime is to ensure that the cut depth made by grinding process does not exceed the critical cut depth. Through collecting and processing the acoustic emission(AE) signals generated by zirconia (PSZ) ceramic grinding tests, and analyzed the characteristics of AE signals under different grinding parameters. As a result of the experiments described in this paper, it can be concluded that AE signals measured during micro-grinding are sensitive to the changes of cut d- epths. The relationship between AE signals and material removal regime could lead to an in-process sensing strategy of the cut depths for ensuring grinding processes under ductile regime.
