Abstract:

Machining processes such as end milling are the main steps of production which have major effect on the quality and cost of products. Surface roughness is one of the considerable factors that production managers tend to implement in their decisions. In this study, an artificial neural network is proposed to minimize the surface roughness by tuning the conditions of machining process such as cutting speed, feed rate and depth of cut. The proposed network is tested by many test problems of Ghani et al.[1] study and the weights of network are optimized by using three meta-heuristics, genetic algorithm (GA), imperialist competitive algorithm (ICA). The results show the efficiency and accuracy of the proposed network.

Surface Tension Prediction of Hydrocarbon Mixtures Using Artificial Neural Network

In this study, artificial neural network was used to predict the surface tension of 20 hydrocarbon mixtures. Experimental data was divided into two parts (70% for training and 30% for testing). Optimal configuration of the network was obtained with minimization of prediction error on testing data. The accuracy of our proposed model was compared with four well-known empirical equations. The arti...

Optimization of sediment rating curve coefficients using evolutionary algorithms and unsupervised artificial neural network

Sediment rating curve (SRC) is a conventional and a common regression model in estimating suspended sediment load (SSL) of flow discharge. However, in most cases the data log-transformation in SRC models causing a bias which underestimates SSL prediction. In this study, using the daily stream flow and suspended sediment load data from Shalman hydrometric station on Shalmanroud River, Guilan Pro...

Surface roughness monitoring application based on artificial neural networks for ball-end milling operations

Surface roughness plays an important role in the performance of a finished part. The roughness is usuallymeasured off-line when the part is already machined, although in recent years the trend seems to have been to focus on online monitoring. Measuring and controlling the machining process is now possible thanks to improvements and advances in the fields of computers and sensors. The aim of thi...
