Study of Air Arc Plasma Cutting as a High-Accuracy Cutting Process

Modeling the Plasma Arc Cutting Process Using Ann

This paper deals with modeling of plasma cutting process using artificial neural network (ANN). The objective was to develop an ANN model in order to predict the ten-point height of irregularities (Rz) in terms of three input parameters, cutting current, plate thickness and cutting speed. To this aim, a feed-forward backpropagation ANN was developed and trained using the experimental data. Afte...

Experimental Study of the Effect of Laser-Cutting Process Parameters on Heat Distribution and Cutting Edge Quality of Steel Sheets

This study aimed to evaluate Laser-cutting process of Mild Steel St37 sheets with two different thicknesses. In order to evaluate the quality of cutting edge and the depth of the area affected by the heat, several tests were conducted to determine the effect of parameters such as Laser power, Laser beam movement speed and pressure of axillary gas on the quality of cutting edge and the depth of ...

Dental abrasion as a cutting process.

A mammalian tooth is abraded when a sliding contact between a particle and the tooth surface leads to an immediate loss of tooth tissue. Over time, these contacts can lead to wear serious enough to impair the oral processing of food. Both anatomical and physiological mechanisms have evolved in mammals to try to prevent wear, indicating its evolutionary importance, but it is still an established...

Numerical Modelling of a Cutting Arc Torch

Chaos in a Cutting Process

The dynamics of the cutting process are investigated. Using the increase of cutting depth as a control parameter, two diierent cutting regimes are observed. In the rst regime, which is observed at small cutting depths, complex, high-dimensional dynamics occur. In the second cutting regime, observed for deeper cuts, low dimensional dynamics are typical. The second cutting regime is usually ident...
