Electrochemical micromachining (ECMM) is a non-conventional manufacturing method suitable for the production of microsized components on a wide range of conductive materials. ECMM improves dimensional accuracy and simplifies tool design for machining hard, high strength, heat resistant, and conductive materials into complex shapes. Extremely small interelectrode gaps of the order of few microns...

We propose an RLC model for PEDOT:PSS electrochemical transistors to interpret the persistent oscillating currents observed in experiments. The electrochemical reaction is represented by an inductor in the equivalent circuit. The simulation results show that an electrochemical device can be operated as normal transistors or oscillators under different voltage bias. This model predicts that anal...

This paper presents a model-based approach on the analysis of complex multidisciplinary electrochemical processes, with implementation on a reactor for the electrochemical conversion of CO2 to formate/formic acid. The process is regarded as a system of interacting physical and electrochemical mechanisms. A process model is developed by combining individual mathematical sub-models of the mechani...

A new electrochemical model has been carefully established to explain the carbonation behavior of cement mortar, and the model has been validated by the experimental results. In fact, it is shown by this study that the electrochemical impedance behavior of mortars varies in the process of carbonation. With the cement/sand ratio reduced, the carbonation rate reveals more remarkable. The carbonat...

Simultaneous acquisition of in vivo electrophysiological and neurochemical information is essential for understanding how endogenous neurochemicals modulate the dynamics of brain activity. However, up to now such a task has rarely been accomplished due to the major technical challenge of operating two independent recording systems simultaneously in real-time. Here we propose a simpler solution ...

A model is presented for a parallel plate electrochemical reactor which has electrodes that are the same size and are close together. That is, the distance between the electrodes (S) is much smaller than the length (L) or width (W) of the electrodes. Consideration of the material balance equations in light of this small aspect ratio (S/L) condit ion leads to predict ions of derived quanti t ies...

the applications of electrochemical machining are increasing because of increasing requests of industries for materials with high strengh and high hardness. regular ecm uses a tool with spicified profile shape that is similar to final shape of workpiece. in this reasearch a nozzle that delivers electrolyte to the machining gap is used for machining cylinderical workpieces. by moving the electro...

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...
