  • Active and Passive Control of Machine Tool Vibrations for High Speed and Accuracy

    Creator:
    Dumanli, Ahmet Alper
    Abstract:
    High-performance mechatronic systems are widely used in precision manufacturing equipment such as CNC machine tools, 3D-Printers, photolithography systems, industrial robots, and Coordinate Measuring Machines (CMMs). These equipment are utilized in producing parts and components for aviation, semiconductor, optics, and many other emerging industries, with geometric features and surface properties within...

  • Machining cycle-time prediction in combination with analytical and data-driven CNC interpolator modeling

    Creator:
    Endo, Masafumi
    Abstract:
    This work presents a new approach to enable accurate machining cycle-time prediction. While conventional computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) software estimates cycle times for given toolpaths, huge errors occur due to neglecting interpolator dynamics of numerical control (NC) systems. Typically, the machine changes its feedrate such as slowing down and speeding up...

  • Wing Flutter Suppression via Distributed Electric Propulsion

    Creator:
    Bamberger, Joshua
    Abstract:
    This research aims to demonstrate the viability of actively controlled distributed-electric propulsion as a method to postpone flutter in high aspect-ratio elastic wings. A semi-wing on a spring mount with two propellers powered by electric motors, mounted at alternate pitch angles relative to the chord line, was used as the...
