In industrial production systems, including the most important factors in the economic field machining operations, reduce tool wear due to abrasive nature of the phenomenon on many factors, including temperature Lathe tool, influences, machining conditions (cutting speed, speed losses, forcing to rebuild parts of the manufacturing tolerances disassemble tool wear is caused by the phenomenon, as...

The increasing use of high-pressure water jets in the industry for machining materials yields numerous studies aiming at the optimization of this technology. Since the experimental study of pure or abrasive water jet cutting is complex to carry out, the numerical simulation of this process stands as an attractive alternative. Such a simulation relies on the coupling of numerical tools devoted o...

This paper presents some preliminary work for modeling the abrasive flow machining (AFM) of automotive engine air intake manifolds using a cascade-correlation neural network approach. AFM has not been widely used because of the lack of theoretic support for the complex behavior of the process. Currently, this process can only be monitored subjectively by the plant engineers and is not suited fo...

numerical modeling of machining processes is of significance in the parametric analysis and optimization of their performance. in this paper, a finite element-based model of abrasive waterjet (awj) cutting of a ductile material is presented with the help of an explicit, nonlinear finite element method. in this model, both solid-solid interaction and fluid-structure interaction are considered. t...

A water jet machining is an industrial tool capable of cutting a wide variety of materials using a very high-pressure jet of water, or a mixture of water and an abrasive substance. This paper addresses the concept of the Intelligent knowledge base system (IKBS) for optimization of product design and manufacturing process for water jet machining in computer based concurrent engineering environme...

In recent years, advanced materials with unique metallurgical properties such as super alloys, composites and ceramics have been developed to meet the demands of extreme applications. While these materials are harder, tougher, less heat sensitive and more resistant to corrosion and fatigue, they are also difficult to machine. Advanced materials are being widely used these days not only in the a...
