In this study, ultrasonic assisted machining (UAM) technique is applied in side-surface milling experiment for glass-ceramic workpiece material. The tungsten carbide cutting-tool with diamond coating is used in conjunction with two kinds of cooling/lubrication mediums such as water-soluble (WS) cutting fluid and minimum quantity lubricant (MQL). Full factorial process parameter combinations on ...

For the first time, response surface methodology (RSM) using a Box-Behnken Design (BBD) was employed to optimize the conditions for ultrasonic assisted extraction (UAE) of antioxidants from Chinese sumac (Rhus typhina L.) fruits. Initially, influencing factors such as liquid-solid ratio, duration of ultrasonic assisted extraction, pH range, extraction temperature and ethanol concentration were ...

The process of ultrasonic-enhanced compound-enzymes-assisted extraction of polysaccharides from the fruit of Cornus officinalis was optimized by response surface methodology (RSM). The influence of three different factors on the yield of C. officinalis polysaccharides (COP) was studied. The results showed that the optimal conditions were extraction temperature 49.6 °C, ultrasound time 40.41 min...

Various extraction techniques were applied in the extraction of the biologically active constituents. The methods employed were traditional maceration extraction, microwave-assisted extraction(MAE), and ultrasound extraction (UE). Compared to the maceration extraction, MAE and UE methods provided high extraction yield, requiring short time frames and less labour. Microwave irradiation is a prov...

Ultrasonic-assisted plastic micro-forming is a research hotspot in metal-forming process. The friction characteristic key factor affecting the properties of metal ultrasonic-assisted However, existed researches were mostly focused on characteristics free surfaces, while few studied between sample and mold cavity. In this paper, micro double cup extrusion experiments copper T2 conducted to inves...

Mangiferin is a xanthone widely distributed in higher plants showing antioxidative, antiviral, anticancer, antidiabetic, immunomodulatory, hepatoprotective and analgesic effects. In the present study, an ultrasonic-assisted extraction method was developed for the effective extraction of mangiferin from mango leaves. Some parameters such as ethanol concentration, liquid-to-solid ratio, extractio...

Ultrasonic-assisted extraction was employed for highly efficient separation of aroma oil from raspberry seeds. A central composite design with two variables and five levels was employed and effects of process variables of sonication time and extraction temperature on oil recovery and quality were investigated. Optimal conditions predicted by response surface methodology were sonication time of ...

This paper explores the superposition of ultrasonic vibration on vertical rotating augers in a variety granular media. Ultrasonic is known to facilitate direct penetration media, and it anticipated that any related reduction torque requirements system might improve augering performance. Experimental results suggest that, compared non-ultrasonic scenario, ultrasonically assisted significantly pr...
