Nowadays, in order to reach minimum production cost in machining operations, various optimization methods have been proposed. Since turning operation has different parameters affecting the workpiece quality, it was selected as a complicated manufacturing method in this paper. To reach sufficient quality, all influencing parameters such as cutting speed, federate, depth of cut and tool rake angl...

background: forecasting of air pollutants has become a popular topic of environmental research today. for this purpose, the artificial neural network (aan) technique is widely used as a reliable method for forecasting air pollutants in urban areas. on the other hand, the evolutionary polynomial regression (epr) model has recently been used as a forecasting tool in some environmental issues. in ...

In the present study, five modeling approaches of RA, MLP, MNN, GFF, and CANFIS were applied so as to estimate the radial overcut values in electrochemical drilling process. For these models, four input variables, namely electrolyte concentration, voltage, initial machining gap, and tool feed rate, were selected. The developed models were evaluated in terms of their prediction capability with m...

this paper investigates the residual stress fields in the vicinity of weld bead in hsla-65 steel weldments using a neural network. this study consists of two cases: (i) the experimental analysis was carried out the measurements of residual stresses by xrd technique. many different specimens that were subjected to different conditions were studied. the values and distributions of residual stress...

according to variety of accessible hydrological models, evaluateing the efficiency of models for different management objectives are essential. therefore, models with simple structure and using minimal input that can provide an acceptable result can serve as an effective tool to watershed managers. hence, the objective of this research is to evaluate the relative performances of the lumped conc...

this study was designed to find which one of the three different presentations, i.e. input, input-output, and output-input, will be more effective in iranian efl learners' vocabulary acquisitions. to this end, first 54 out of 64 female students, aged from 19 to 23 years, with an average of 21, were selected out of starter-level efl learners at the university of tarbiat moalem in bandar abb...
