Flipping food during grilling tasks, a dataset of utensils kinematics and dynamics, food pose and subject gaze

This paper presents a multivariate dataset of 2866 food flipping movements, performed by 4 chefs and 5 home cooks, with different grilled food and two utensils (spatula and tweezers). The 3D trajectories of strategic points in the utensils were tracked using optoelectronic motion capture. The pinching force of the tweezers, the bending force and torsion torque of the spatula were also recorded, as well as videos and the subject gaze. These data were collected using a custom experimental setup that allowed the execution of flipping movements with freshly cooked food, without having the sensors near the dangerous cooking area. Complementary, the 2D position of food was computed from the videos. The action of flipping food is, indeed, gaining the attention of both researchers and manufacturers of foodservice technology. The reported dataset contains valuable measurements (1) to characterize and model flipping movements as performed by humans, (2) to develop bio-inspired methods to control a cooking robot, or (3) to study new algorithms for human actions recognition.

Effect of a Compound Energy Field with Temperature and Ultrasonic Vibration on the Material Properties and Bending Process of TC2 Titanium Alloy

Due to the low formability and forming quality of titanium alloy, the forming process of a compound energy field (CEF) with temperature and ultrasonic vibration was proposed. Tensile tests were carried out to investigate the effect of the CEF on the true stress–strain curve, yield strength, elastic modulus, and other mechanical properties of the TC2 titanium alloy. Bending tests assisted by CEF were also performed to investigate the effect of different parameters of the CEF on bending force, spring-back, bending fillet radius, and microstructure of TC2 titanium. The results demonstrate that compared to the process under a single-temperature field, the CEF can reduce yield strength, elastic modulus, bending force, bending fillet, and the spring-back angle, which shows that the CEF can further increase the high-temperature softening effect of TC2 titanium. Furthermore, this effect becomes more remarkable when ultrasonic vibration energy increases. As a result, the formability of titanium alloy can be improved.

Design of Manual Pipe Bending Mechanism

Rotary draw bending an ongoing process. It’s an at-hand service proffered within the current market. However, each draw bender features a divergent mechanism with its pros and cons, thanks to its main advantages; the rotary draw bender was selected. Pipe bending machines have progressed many enhancements and augmentations over the amount. The sort of pipe bending plays a critical role in industries, instruments, and transporting of fluids. The first concern is that the required bend angle that this pipe will bend on. The following report will include an outline of the accessibility of this machine. The crucial variables that ought to be accounted for within the pipe bending is bend radius bend angle, pipe diameter, and thickness. The concept of press bending is employed to hold out the operation; thus, the specified force is administered with the help of a hydraulic jack. Also, other important variables are accounted for, like the bending force, bending torque, simulation outcomes about the work piece analysis, and eventually the machine design. Moreover, a prototype that satisfies the specified constraints is manufactured and assembled. Being a manual bending machine means no use of electricity is required, leading to no power consumption. Additionally, this machine is favorable, feasible, affordable, low maintenance, and higher accuracy.

Effect ofOrientation on Spring back for Component with Hole and without Hole

Many components are needed to be formed into different shapes depending upon their applications. Whenever the component is formed, it is associated with little or more amount of spring back. It is because of the elastic stresses that remain in the bent-up part. When the bending force is removed, the elastic stresses remaining in the bent up part try to relieve and due to relieving of these elastic stresses the formed up component tries to regain its original shape. This movement of metal due to relieving of stresses is called spring back. In this paper, the effect of orientation on the spring back is studied for components with holes and without holes. The components are formed in U shape along the rolling direction, 450 to the rolling direction, and 900 to the rolling direction, with hole and without a hole in the component. Springback is measured and compared for all the formed-up components. It is seen that the spring back is minimum both for components with holes and without holes formed along the rolling direction. It is also seen that for the components with holes the spring back is reduced as compared with the component without the hole.

Bending testing is carried out in the lab. Nurtanio Adisutjipto College of Technology Yogyakarta uses the Gotech Testing Machine INC (Universal Testing Machine) UTM testing machine where the results obtained in the test are in the form of a graphic in which the maximum load value, elastic modulus, area, yield point and span have been obtained. From the results of these tests, we can compare the average value of the maximum load and the modulus of elasticity received in each specimen with variations in carbon fiber and WR fiberglass.

Estimating of Bending Force and Curvature of the Bending Plate in a Three-Roller Bending System Using Finite Element Simulation and Analytical Modeling

Many industries such as shipbuilding require steel bending plates in a wide range of radii, thus bending machines are often designed and produced on a custom basis in shipyards. From a design perspective, however, the bending force and the radius of the bending plate as a function of vertical displacement of the upper roller must be known. In this paper, a hybrid numerical–analytical approach is proposed to investigate the three-roller bending process for two plates of steel used in the naval industry. Firstly, the bending process is modeled using the finite element (FE) method and regression models for the bending force as a function of plate thickness and vertical displacement of the upper roller were constructed. Then, based on the findings from FE analysis, using the bent bar theory, two analytical expressions for the bending force were derived. Using geometric and deformation compatibilities, analytical expressions for the vertical displacement of the upper roller as a function of the curvature of the bending plate were also developed. The FE results suggest that the cross section of the plate is practically a plastic hinge in the tangent area of the upper roller and that the deformation compatibilities must be considered in order to estimate the curvature radius of the bending plate using analytical formulations. These results are of practical importance in designing rolling machines to estimate the setting parameters.

Key material properties in crease cracking of kraft paper

Crease cracking of paperboard is important to control for the appearance and structural integrity of packages. Crease cracking is affected by creasing operation variables, as well as the physical properties of the paperboard. However, the effects of the physical properties are not clearly known. The objectives of this work were to identify the key material properties that affect crease cracking and to clarify the effects of fiber composition and starch. Laboratory sheets were produced from bleached and refined softwood and hardwood commercial pulp at grammage and thicknesses that match a typical paperboard. To mimic papermaking operations, surface starch was applied via a bench-top size press. The sheets were creased in the lab over a range of penetration depths, and reverse-side cracking was measured. The results showed that less reverse-side cracking was correlated with higher tensile post-peak energy, a lower bending stress, and a lower z-direction (ZD) stiffness. The tensile post-peak energy is a measure of the resistance to crack growth via fiber-bridging. The bending force and the ZD stiffness influence the forces that create cracks. It was observed that decreasing the ratio of hard-wood-to-softwood content and reducing the amount of starch would both decrease crease cracking.
