The Relationship

Modelling is used for correlating the relationship between the input process parameters and the output responses during the machining process. To characterize real-world systems of considerable complexity, an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) model is regularly used to replace the mathematical approximation of the relationship. This paper explains the methodological procedure and the outcome of the ANN modeling process for Electrical Discharge Drilling of Inconel 718 superalloy and hollow tubular copper as tool electrode. The most important process parameters in this work are peak current, pulse on time and pulse off time with machining performances of material removal rate and surface roughness. The experiments were performed by L20 Orthogonal Array. In such conditions, an Artificial Neural Network model is developed using MATLAB programming on the Feed Forward Back Propagation technique was used to predict the responses. The experimental data were separated into three parts to train, test the network and validate the model. The developed model has been confirmed experimentally for training and testing in considering the number of iterations and mean square error convergence criteria. The developed model results are to approximate the responses fairly exactly. The model has the mean correlation coefficient of 0.96558. Results revealed that the proposed model can be used for the prediction of the complex EDM drilling process.

AbstractRadial overcut predictive models using multiple regression analysis, artificial neural network and co-active neurofuzzy inference system are developed to predict the radial overcut during electrochemical drilling with vacuum extraction of electrolyte. Four process parameters, electrolyte concentration, voltage, initial machining gap and tool feed rate, are selected to develop the models. The comparison between the results of the presented models shows that the artificial neural network and co-active neuro-fuzzy inference system models can predict the radial overcut with an average relative error of nearly 5%. Main effect and interaction plots are generated to study the effects of process parameters on the radial overcut. The analysis shows that the voltage, electrolyte concentration and tool feed rate have significant effect on radial overcut, respectively, while initial machining gap has a little effect. It is also found that the increase of the voltage and electrolyte concentration increases the radial overcut and the increase of the tool feed rate decreases the radial overcut.

Unconventional machining process finds heavy application in aerospace, automobile and in production industries where accuracy is most needed. This process is chosen over other traditional methods because of the advent of composite and high strength materials, multifaceted parts and also because of its elevated precision. Regularly in unconventional machines, trial and error method is used to fix the values of process parameters. An algorithm incorporating Artificial Neural Network (ANN) is proposed to create mathematical model functionally relating process parameters and operating parameters of a wire cut electric discharge machine (WEDM) and copper is the work piece. This is accomplished by training a learning algorithm of feed forward neural network with back propagation. The required data used for training and testing the ANN is obtained by conducting trial runs in wire cut electric discharge machine. Proposed algorithm paves reduction in time for fixing the values for the process parameters and thus reduces the production time along with reduction in cost of machining processes and thereby increases the production as well as the efficiency. The programs for training and testing the neural network are developed, using matlab 7.0.1 package.

AbstractIncremental Sheet Forming (ISF) has attracted attention due to its flexibility as far as its forming process and complexity in the deformation mode are concerned. Single Point Incremental Forming (SPIF) is one of the major types of ISF, which also constitutes the simplest type of ISF. If sufficient quality and accuracy without defects are desired, for the production of an ISF component, optimal parameters of the ISF process should be selected. In order to do that, an initial prediction of formability and geometric accuracy helps researchers select proper parameters when forming components using SPIF. In this process, selected parameters are tool materials and shapes. As evidenced by earlier studies, multiple forming tests with different process parameters have been conducted to experimentally explore such parameters when using SPIF. With regard to the range of these parameters, in the scope of this study, the influence of tool material, tool shape, tool-end corner radius, and tool surface roughness (Ra/Rz) were investigated experimentally on SPIF components: the studied factors include the formability and geometric accuracy of formed parts. In order to produce a well-established study, an appropriate modeling tool was needed. To this end, with the help of adopting the data collected from 108 components formed with the help of SPIF, Artificial Neural Network (ANN) was used to explore and determine proper materials and the geometry of forming tools: thus, ANN was applied to predict the formability and geometric accuracy as output. Process parameters were used as input data for the created ANN relying on actual values obtained from experimental components. In addition, an analytical equation was generated for each output based on the extracted weight and bias of the best network prediction. Compared to the experimental approach, analytical equations enable the researcher to estimate parameter values within a relatively short time and in a practicable way. Also, an estimate of Relative Importance (RI) of SPIF parameters (generated with the help of the partitioning weight method) concerning the expected output is also presented in the study. One of the key findings is that tool characteristics play an essential role in all predictions and fundamentally impact the final products.

In this work, the artificial neural network model and statistical regression model are established and utilized for predicting the fiber diameter of spunbonding nonwovens from the process parameters. The artificial neural network model has good approximation capability and fast convergence rate, which is used in this research. The results show the artificial neural network model can provide quantitative predictions of fiber diameter and yield more accurate and stable predictions than the statistical regression model, which reveals that the artificial neural network model is based on the inherent principles, and it can yield reasonably good prediction results and provide insight into the relationship between process parameters and fiber diameter.

Machining of Titanium alloys is difficult due to their chemical and physical properties namely excellent strength, chemical reactivity and low thermal conductivity. Traditional machining of such materials leads to formation of continuous chips and tool bits are subjected to chatter which leads to formation of poor surface on machined surface. In this study, Wire-EDM one of the most popular unconventional machining process which was used to machine such difficult-to-cut materials. Effect of Wire-EDM process parameters namely peak current, pulse-on- time, pulse-off-time, servo voltage on MRRand SR was investigated by Taguchi method. 0.25 mm brass wire was used in this process as electrode material. A surface roughness tester (Surftest 301) was used to measure surface roughness value of the machined work surface. A multi-response optimization technique was then utilized to optimize Wire-EDM process parameters for achieving maximum MRR and minimum SR simultaneously.
