However, due to a large layer height produced in WAAM, an unsatisfactory surface roughness of parts processed by this technology has been a key issue. A methodology based on laser vision sensing is proposed to quantitatively calculate the surface roughness of parts deposited by WAAM.Calibrations for a camera and a laser plane of the optical system are presented. The reconstruction precision of the laser vision system is verified by a standard workpiece. Additionally, this determination approach is utilized to calculate the surface roughness of a multi-layer single-pass thin-walled part. The results indicate that the optical measurement approach based on the laser vision sensing is a simple and effective way to characterize the surface roughness of parts deposited by WAAM. The maximum absolute error is less than 0.15 mm. The proposed research provides the foundation for surface roughness optimization with different process parameters.展开更多

This paper deals with the neural network modeling and prediction of surface roughness in machining aluminum alloys using data collected from both force and vibration sensors. Two neural network models, including a Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) model and a Radial Basis Function (RBF) model, were developed in the present study. Each model includes eight inputs and five outputs. The eight inputs include the cutting speed, the ratio of the feed rate to the tool-edge radius, cutting forces in three directions, and cutting vibrations in three directions. The five outputs are five surface roughness parameters. Described in detail is how training and test data were generated from real-world machining experiments that covered a wide range of cutting conditions. The results show that the MLP model provides significantly higher accuracy of prediction for surface roughness than does the RBF model.展开更多

Nevert...Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF) is an Additive Manufacturing technique, which allows production of highly complex solid metal parts with good mechanical properties, compared to conventionally manufactured parts. Nevertheless, the layer-by-layer fabrication process also offers several disadvantages, including a relatively high surface roughness depending on the shape of the component, its position and orientation during the fabrication process. This paper deals with investigations on the surface roughness reduction capability, and residual surface structures by laser polishing of LPBF AlSi10Mg parts under varying initial surface roughness in order to investigate the influence of the surface behavior and initial surface roughness to the achievable surface quality by laser polishing. Hereto test specimens with varying fabrication orientations regarding to the built platform are printed and further polished. Thereby the initial arithmetic roughness varies between 19.2 μm and 8.0 μm. It could be shown that the achievable surface roughness by laser polishing with continuous and pulsed laser radiation is increasing with rising initial roughness, but the relative roughness reduction is almost constant in the range of 95% - 97.5%. The analyzation of the residual roughness structures shows, that the main roughness differences is found in the middle and long structure wavelength regime, which are directly depending on the initial surface structures of 3D printing.展开更多

Experiments have been conducted using L<sub>27 </sub>(3<sup>4</sup>) orthogonal array and each experiment was repeated three times and each test used a new cutting tool, High Speed Steel (HSS), to ensure accurate readings of the surface roughness. The statistical methods of Signal-to-Noise (S/N) ratio and the Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) were applied to investigate effects of cutting speed, feed rate and depth of cut on surface roughness under different cutting fluids. Minitab 14 software was used to analyze the effect of variables on the surface roughness. Results obtained indicated that optimal variables for the minimum surface roughness were cutting speed of 35 m/min (level 2), feed of 0.124 mm/rev (level 1), depth of cut of 0.3 mm (level 1) and a cutting fluid with a viscosity of 2.898 mm<sup>2</sup>/s (level 3). Hence, the optimal parameters to obtain better surface roughness of the workpiece material were obtained when groundnut oil based cutting fluid was used. Analysis of variance shows that feed rate has the most significant effect on surface roughness.展开更多

文摘There remains growing interest in magnesium(Mg)and its alloys,as they are the lightest structural metallic materials and potential metallic biomaterials.In spite of the greatest historical Mg usage at present,the wider use of Mg alloys remains restricted by the poor corrosion resistance.A nano amorphous film,as the composition of Al2O3,had now been deposited on the AZ31 Mg alloy substrate by atomic layer deposition(ALD).Grazing incidence X-ray diffraction(GIXRD),X-ray reflectivity(XRR),X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS),atomic force microscope(AFM)and scanning electron microscopy(SEM)had been employed to identify the chemical compositions,microstructure and Al2O3/Mg interface of specimens firstly.Then corrosion behavior had been evaluated by neutral salt spray test and electrochemical measurement.The results showed that nano amorphous film made a homogeneous cover on Mg alloy.The film could improve the corrosion resistance of Mg alloy greatly,not only with a positive shift in Ecorr and a decrease in icorr,but also with a more uniform corroded mode.Furthermore,the roughness was found to be an important factor for corrosion resistant,in the way that rougher surface was corroded worse,and greater improvement would be in corrosion resistant after nano amorphous film deposition.
文摘In the present study,a novel method of surface finish improvement is proposed using shot blasting of soda lime(SBSL)beads on the Mg-AZ31 alloy.The effect of the soda blasting process parameters,such as blast pressure,stand-off distance,and blast duration,have been studied in-response of material removal rate(MRR)and surface roughness(SR)and corresponding statistical models have been obtained.The multi-objective optimization has also been performed to obtain parameters for maximum MRR and minimum SR.The corrosion behavior of the treated specimens has been performed to study their in-vitro biodegradability in simulated body fluid(SBF)for 1,3,7,10,15,and 21 days.The wettability study of the SBSL treated samples has been investigated using sessile drop methodology.Further,cell adhesion test has also been performed to study the biocompatibility characteristics of the SBSL treated samples using Huh7 liver cell lines.Based on obtained quantitative data as well as scanning electron microscopy analysis of treated samples,the SBSL treatment of the AZ31 alloy has been found highly useful in producing biocompatibility surfaces along with desirable morphological features.

文摘Wire and arc additive manufacturing(WAAM) shows a great promise for fabricating fully dense metal parts by means of melting materials in layers using a welding heat source. However, due to a large layer height produced in WAAM, an unsatisfactory surface roughness of parts processed by this technology has been a key issue. A methodology based on laser vision sensing is proposed to quantitatively calculate the surface roughness of parts deposited by WAAM.Calibrations for a camera and a laser plane of the optical system are presented. The reconstruction precision of the laser vision system is verified by a standard workpiece. Additionally, this determination approach is utilized to calculate the surface roughness of a multi-layer single-pass thin-walled part. The results indicate that the optical measurement approach based on the laser vision sensing is a simple and effective way to characterize the surface roughness of parts deposited by WAAM. The maximum absolute error is less than 0.15 mm. The proposed research provides the foundation for surface roughness optimization with different process parameters.

文摘Pt-Ni alloy nanocrystals with Pt-enriched shells were prepared by selective etching of surface Ni using sulfuric acid and hydroquinone.The changes in the electronic and geometric structure of the alloy nanoparticles at the surface were elucidated from the electrochemical surface area,the potential of zero total charge(PZTC),and relative surface roughness,which were determined from CO-and CO_(2)-displacement experiments before and after 3000 potential cycles under oxygen reduction reaction conditions.While the highest activity and durability were achieved in hydroquinone-treated Pt–Ni,sulfuric acidtreated one showed the lower activity and durability despite its higher surface Pt concentration and alloying level.Both PZTC and QCO_(2)/QCO ratio(desorption charge of reductively adsorbed CO_(2) normalized by COad-stripping charge)depend on surface roughness.In particular,QCO_(2)/QCO ratio change better reflects the roughness on an atomic scale,and PZTC is also affected by the electronic modification of Pt atoms in surface layers.In this study,a comparative study is presented to find a relationship between surface structure and electrochemical properties,which reveals that surface roughness plays a critical role to improve the electrochemical performance of Pt-Ni alloy catalysts with Pt-rich surfaces.

文摘It is difficult to construct the prediction model for titanium alloy through analyzing the formation mechanism of surface roughness due to the complicated relation between influential factors and surface roughness.A novel algorithm based on the modified particle swarm optimization ( PSO ) least square support vector machine ( LSSVM ) is proposed to predict the roughness of the end milling titanium alloys.According to Taguchi method and features in milling titanium alloys , the influences of cutting speed , feed rate and axial depth of cut on surface roughness are investigated with the analysis of variance ( ANOVA ) of the experimental data.The research results show that the construction speed of the modified PSO LS-SVM model is two orders of magnitude faster than that of back propagation ( BP ) model.Moreover , the prediction accuracy is about one order of magnitude higher than that of BP model.The modified PSO LS-SVM prediction model can explain the influences of cutting speed , feed rate and axial depth of cut on the surface roughness of titanium alloys.Either a higher cutting speed , a lower feed rate or a smaller axial depth of cut can lead to the decrease of surface roughness.
文摘Artificial neural network is a powerful technique of computational intelligence and has been applied in a variety of fields such as engineering and computer science. This paper deals with the neural network modeling and prediction of surface roughness in machining aluminum alloys using data collected from both force and vibration sensors. Two neural network models, including a Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) model and a Radial Basis Function (RBF) model, were developed in the present study. Each model includes eight inputs and five outputs. The eight inputs include the cutting speed, the ratio of the feed rate to the tool-edge radius, cutting forces in three directions, and cutting vibrations in three directions. The five outputs are five surface roughness parameters. Described in detail is how training and test data were generated from real-world machining experiments that covered a wide range of cutting conditions. The results show that the MLP model provides significantly higher accuracy of prediction for surface roughness than does the RBF model.
文摘Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF) is an Additive Manufacturing technique, which allows production of highly complex solid metal parts with good mechanical properties, compared to conventionally manufactured parts. Nevertheless, the layer-by-layer fabrication process also offers several disadvantages, including a relatively high surface roughness depending on the shape of the component, its position and orientation during the fabrication process. This paper deals with investigations on the surface roughness reduction capability, and residual surface structures by laser polishing of LPBF AlSi10Mg parts under varying initial surface roughness in order to investigate the influence of the surface behavior and initial surface roughness to the achievable surface quality by laser polishing. Hereto test specimens with varying fabrication orientations regarding to the built platform are printed and further polished. Thereby the initial arithmetic roughness varies between 19.2 μm and 8.0 μm. It could be shown that the achievable surface roughness by laser polishing with continuous and pulsed laser radiation is increasing with rising initial roughness, but the relative roughness reduction is almost constant in the range of 95% - 97.5%. The analyzation of the residual roughness structures shows, that the main roughness differences is found in the middle and long structure wavelength regime, which are directly depending on the initial surface structures of 3D printing.
文摘Taguchi method has been employed to investigate the effects of cutting fluids on surface roughness in turning AISI 1330 alloy steel, using manually operated lathe machine. Experiments have been conducted using L<sub>27 </sub>(3<sup>4</sup>) orthogonal array and each experiment was repeated three times and each test used a new cutting tool, High Speed Steel (HSS), to ensure accurate readings of the surface roughness. The statistical methods of Signal-to-Noise (S/N) ratio and the Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) were applied to investigate effects of cutting speed, feed rate and depth of cut on surface roughness under different cutting fluids. Minitab 14 software was used to analyze the effect of variables on the surface roughness. Results obtained indicated that optimal variables for the minimum surface roughness were cutting speed of 35 m/min (level 2), feed of 0.124 mm/rev (level 1), depth of cut of 0.3 mm (level 1) and a cutting fluid with a viscosity of 2.898 mm<sup>2</sup>/s (level 3). Hence, the optimal parameters to obtain better surface roughness of the workpiece material were obtained when groundnut oil based cutting fluid was used. Analysis of variance shows that feed rate has the most significant effect on surface roughness.

文摘The processed surface contour shape is extracted with the finite element simulation software.The difference value of contour shape change is used as the parameters of balancing surface roughness to construct finite element model of supersonic vibration milling in cutting stability domain.The surface roughness trial scheme is designed in the orthogonal test design method to analyze the surface roughness test result in the response surface methodology.The surface roughness prediction model is established and optimized.Finally,the surface roughness finite element simulation prediction model is verified by experiments.The research results show that,compared with the experiment results,the error range of the finite element simulation model is 27.5%–30.9%,and the error range of the empirical model obtained by the response surface method is between 4.4%and 12.3%.So,the model in this paper is accurate and will provide the theoretical basis for the optimization study of the auxiliary milling process of supersonic vibration.
文摘This work,examines the Surface Roughness(SR)of composite consisting Aluminium alloy(AA6061),Magnesium and Rock dust during turning process.To study the performance,three different test specimens with different constituents of Al 6061-T6,AZ31 and Rock dust were prepared by stir casting method.Turning experiments were carried out using MTAB Siemens-CNC lathe.The input parameters for machining are speed,depth of cut&feed and output response is surface roughness For each test specimen,there are 15 turning operations were performed using Box-Ben hen Design approach.To analyze the process parameters for SR,the models of ANOVA and Decision Tree(DT)algorithms were performed.Both algorithms are confirmed that,speed is the most significant factor for SR.The addition of AZ 31 with 1%and rock dust of 2%in AA6061 produced better surface finish.Regression models of linear regression,multilayer perception and support vector regression from data science were formulated to find the relationship between variables.Among these models multi layer perception produced minimum root mean square error.

文摘The influence of processing parameters on the coating surface roughness of LD10 aluminum alloy treated by the power source with positive and negative pulse in the alkaline electrolyte was discussed.Lots of experiments were done with different processing parameters including the positive final voltage,the negative final voltage,the frequency,the duty ratio,the processing time and electrolyte temperature.And the surface roughness tester TR200 was used to measure the coating surface roughness.The influence of the processing time on the surface roughness is the smallest,less than 0.2μm.The surface roughness decreases gradually with the duty ratio decreasing or the frequency increasing;it decreases gradually with each of the other parameters increasing,and then increases gradually after achieving the minimum value.Appropriately by selecting processing parameters,the coating with Ra 0.6 can be obtained.
文摘The effects of various surface roughness geometrical properties including roughness height(5%,10%,15%),number(3,6),and shape(rectangular and triangular)on the flow and heat transfer of slip-flow in trapezoidal microchannels were investigated.The effects of mentioned parameters on the heat transfer coefficient through the microchannel,average Nusselt number and pressure drop for Reynolds number of 5,10,15 and 20 were examined.The obtained results showed that increasing the roughness height and number increases the pressure drop due to higher stagnation effects before and after roughness elements and decreases the Nusselt number due to higher recirculation zones effects than obstruction effects.The most reduction in Nusselt number and the most increment in pressure drop occur at the roughness height of 15%,roughness number of 6 and Reynolds number of 20 by about 10.6%and 52.8%than the smooth microchannel respectively.
