Abrasive flow machining (AFM) is an advance machining process which is used to machine complex shape and is used to deburr, remove recast layer and radius surfaces. This research uses a developed abrasive flow machine and an experiment employing abrasive flow machining was conducted on plunger body fabricated on stainless steel SS 446. In this research AFM parameters such as abrasive particle s...

This paper is concerned with optimization of process parameters for a roller leveller that is an indispensable equipment to eliminate the undesirable curvature of a thin-walled aluminum pipe. Optimization of process parameters has been carried out for a multistaggered-type 14-roller leveller. A finite element model of a multi-staggered 14-roller leveller was constructed for analysis whose resul...

Parametric design optimization of an automotive body crashworthiness improvement is presented. The thicknesses of parts are employed as design variables for optimization whose objective is to increase the maximum deceleration value of the vehicle center of gravity during an impact. Using the Taguchi method, this study analyzes the optimum conditions for design objectives and the impact factors ...

computational fluid dynamics (cfd) is a computational technology that enables researchers to study the dynamics of things that flow. by using cfd, it is possible to build a computational model that represents a system under study. it not only predicts fluid flow behavior, but also the transfer of heat, mass, phase change, chemical reaction, mechanical movement, and stress or deformation of rela...

Problem statement: Surface roughness is a major consideration in modern Computer Numerical Control (CNC) turning industry. Most existing optimization researches for CNC finish turning were either accomplished within certain manufacturing circumstances, or achieved through numerous equipment operations. Therefore, a general deduction optimization scheme is deemed to be necessary for the industry...

The paper describes the usage of the fuzzy Mamdani analysis and Taguchi method to optimize the tourism satisfaction in Thailand. The fuzzy reasoning system is applied to pursue the relationships among the options of a tour company in order to be used in Taguchi experiments as the responses. In this research, tourism satisfaction is carried out using L18 Taguchi orthogonal arrays on parameters s...

In the published studies, to best of authors’ understanding, grey Taguchi-based statistical technique has not been applied for optimization combined gas-steam power plants. view this, seven essential input parameters namely compressor inlet air temperature, pressure ratio, fuel volumetric flow rate fuel, gas turbine maximum efficiency, and efficiency are chosen with aim determining optimal comb...
