Investigation performance of heat exchanger on thermoacoustic heat engine for harvesting a waste heat
(Trans Tech Publications, 2014)
A green technology of acoustic of fluid-structure interactions become an emerging technology today, a call thermoacoustic heat engine. Thermoacoutics heat engine systems convert the energy on a harvesting from a waste heat ...
Effect of drill point angle on surface integrity when drilling titanium alloy
(Trans Tech Publications, 2014)
Surface integrity of machined component is of major importance for the reliability and safety requirements during in service especially for the aerospace applications. This paper presents an investigation on the effect of ...
Failure analysis of conveyor chain links: A case study
(Trans Tech Publications, 2014)
This case study is to investigate the causes of failure of chain system through characterization on the failure component. The failures that occur are relate to welding because this dipping latex industry used customized ...
Root causes analysis of disbonds and unidentifiable ultrasonic indications on composite materials
(Trans Tech Publications, 2014)
To ensure the structural integrity of composite materials, honeycomb sandwich panels must be inspected for defects with through-transmission ultrasonic testing. This study focused on the root causes analysis of disbonds ...
High-speed photographic study of chip formation during end milling of GFRP composites
(Trans Tech Publications, 2014)
The chip forming process during end milling of glass fibre reinforced composites has been investigated in this study. The qualitative results from a high speed video camera has showed that discontinuous and fracturing of ...
Comparison study in consolidation of yttria reinforced iron-chromium composites using conventional and microwave sintering technique
(Trans Tech Publications, 2014)
This research is focused on studying the density and mechanical properties of iron-chromium composites consolidated by innovative rapid microwave sintering technology against conventionally sintered counterparts using slow ...
Optimisation of machining parameters by criterion of maximum productivity
(Taylor & Francis, 2014-05)
The optimisation of machining parameters for machine tools using the criterion of maximum productivity rate is not a new problem - many unresolved issues remain. The intensification of machining processes leads to changes ...
Porous glass composite as diesel particulate filter and the microwave regeneration
(Trans Tech Publications Inc., 2014-06)
In this study, porous SiO2·RO/stainless steel composite body was prepared through the polyurethane sponge replica method. Porous samples obtained through sintering consist of well dispersed and distributed stainless steel ...
Review on non uniform rational B-spline (NURBS): concept and optimization
(Trans Tech Publications, 2014-02)
This paper is to provide literature review of the Non Uniform Rational B-Splines (NURBS) formulation in the curve and surface constructions. NURBS curves and surfaces have a wide application in Computer Aided Geometry ...
