resistance spot welding is an important manufacturing process in the automotive industry for assembling bodies. the quality and strength of the welds and, by extension, the body is mainly defined by the quality of the weld nuggets. the most effective parameters in this process are sheet material, geometry of electrodes, electrode force, current intensity, welding time and sheet thickness. the p...

in this paper, a new control method based on fel electro hydraulic servo control withnonlinear flux and internal friction, has been presented. the new approach based oncontrollers combined by a classic pd controller and a fuzzy controller is smart. this newtechnique has a good ability to control the performance and stability. simulations have beencarried out in matlab environment and the result...

in this study, the performance of electro-coagulation in combination with aluminum sacrificial anode, in removal of zinc and copper has been investigated. several parameters, such as pollutant concentration, ph, electrical potential, cod, turbidity and contact time were studied to achieve a higher removal capacity. variable concentrations (5-50-500 ppm) of zinc and copper solutions were prepare...

to resolve handling problem of nanoparticles, due to their small size, a new methodology of electro-spraying and freeze-drying was developed for colloidal nanoparticles of silica and titania to transform them to solid macro-scale nanoparticle assemblies.  the assemblies were then redispersed in an aqueous system to investigate the effect of formulation of original solutions and the process para...

in this paper, a complete model of an electro hydraulic driven dry clutch along with its performance evaluation has elucidated. through precision modeling, a complete nonlinear physical and full order sketch of clutch has drawn. ultimate nonlinearities existent in the system prohibits it from being controlled by conventional linear control algorithms and to compensate the behavior of the system...

Nonmechanical beam deflectors, particularly acousto-optical and electro-optical deflectors, are being considered for the access and tracking functions of a magneto-optic recording head. In this report, the suitability of electro-optic deflectors for these functions is explored. For applications requiring modest deflection, electro.optic deflectors require less power and exhibit higher optical t...

Nan-fiber scaffolds are suitable tools for tissue engineering. Electro spinning materials together with cells presents not adequate to obtain a high cellular zing tissue constructs as the shear force, tensile force, and other physical effects excited in the electro spinning process, which are harmful to cellular differentiation, development and function. However, this limitation has been overco...

Primary malignant brain tumors (BT) are the most common and aggressive malignant brain tumor. Treatment of BTs is a daunting task with median survival just at 21 months. Methods of localized delivery have achieved success in treating BT by circumventing the blood brain barrier and achieving high concentrations of therapeutic within the tumor. The capabilities of localized delivery can be enhanc...

Particle-in-cell/Monte Carlo technique is used to simulate low pressure electro-negative and electro-positive plasmas at a frequency of 10 MHz. The potential, electric field, electron and ion density, and currents flowing across the plasma are presented. To compare the physical properties of the electro-positive gas with those of an electro-negative gas, the input voltage was decreased from 100...
