This study was aimed to explain the influence of surface roughness of the drawbead on non-symmetry deep drawing cold rolled steel sheet to improve the drawability of cold rolled steel sheet. The variables used in this study included semi-circle drawbead with 3 levels of surface roughness which are 6.127 μm Ra, 0.963 μm Ra and 0.152 μm Ra and cold rolled steel sheet according to 3 grades of the ...

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of neutral sodium fluoride (NNaF) gel and acidulated phosphate fluoride (APF) gel on the surface roughness of colored compomer (Twinky Star), conventional compomer (Compoglass F) and resin-modified glass-ionomer cement (RMGIC) (Photac-Fil). MATERIAL AND METHODS A total of 45 standardized disc-shaped specimens were prepared for each ma...

In this study OSB strands produced by a CAE 6/36 disk flaker from resaturated moso and guadua bamboo tissue were classified by surface quality and compared with industrial aspen OSB strands. Strands were first classified into three groups based on surface appearance and texture. The topographic features that characterize the surface were then measured using a laser surface profiler to give two ...

OBJECTIVES To compare and evaluate the root surface roughness after using two polishing instruments for root planing. MATERIALS AND METHODS This comparative study was carried out on a sample of ten extracted human teeth with twenty interproximal root surfaces. Control group 1 and 2: (n=20 root surface): Gracey Curettes, 15 vertical strokes. Test group 1 (n=10): control group 1 + Termination D...

Friction and wear tests were performed on AISI 1045 steel specimens with different initial roughness parameters, machined by a creep-feed dry grinding process, to study the friction and wear behavior on a pin-on-disc tester in dry sliding conditions. Average surface roughness (Ra), root mean square (Rq), skewness (Rsk) and kurtosis (Rku) were involved in order to analyse the influence of the fr...

This paper presents an investigation on the effect of machining parameters on the surface roughness (centre line average roughness: Ra) and the optimal combination of process parameter for minimum Ra in wire electrical discharge machining (WEDM) of EN 31 steel using artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm. The experimental studies are conducted by varying discharge current, voltage, pulse on time...

This paper presents a new approach for surface roughness (Ra) prediction during milling by using dynamometer to measure cutting forces signals and cutting conditions. End milling machining process of hardened die steel with carbide end mill, was modeled in this paper using the adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) to predict the effect of machining variables (spindle speed, feed rate an...

in this research the possibility of vine pruning fibers in combination with wood fibers was studied in order to fabricate medium density fiberboard. vine pruning fibers content in three levels of 0/100, 30/70 and 60/40 (weight percent) and press time in three levels of 4, 5 and 6 minutes were as variable factors. one layer panels with a density of 0.65 g/cm3 and thickness of 15 mm were made. th...

OBJECTIVES To investigate the surface properties (roughness, composition, phase transformation) of monolithic zirconia specimens after dental adjustment procedures (grinding, polishing) and wear simulation. METHODS Zirconia specimens (Cercon base, Cercon ht, DeguDent, G; n=10/material) were successively sintered, ground, and polished with an intraoral polishing kit in a three-step procedure. ...
