Multi-Sensor Data Fusion for Specific Energy Estimation in a Surface Grinding Process

Creator:: Desabathina, Sai Srinivas
Abstract:: Specific energy, defined as the energy consumed by per unit volumetric removal rate, is one of the key metrics used for evaluating the environmental performance of a machining process. Grinding is a traditional machining process, characterized by high specific energy and poor environmental performance. Growing global concerns about climate change...

Materials and process design for powder injection molding of silicon nitride for the fabrication of engine components

Creator:: Lenz, Juergen H. (Juergen Herbert)
Abstract:: A new material system was developed for fabricating the combustion engine of an unmanned aerial vehicle. The material system consisted of a mixture of nanoscale and microscale particles of silicon nitride. Magnesia and yttria were used as sintering additives. The powders were mixed with a paraﬃn binder system. The binder-powder...
