Mechanical vibrations represent an important problem in machining processes performed by machine tools. They affect surface quality, tool life, and productivity. In extreme situations, chattering may appear, which can dramatically reduce the tool lif...
This paper presents experimental research on the Computer Numerical Control (CNC) routing of a traditional motif collected from Ţara Bârsei (Transylvania region) using two methods, namely, engraving (Engrave) and carving (V-Carve). The analysis of th...
Fretwork, as a decorating technique, can today be performed with modern means by laser or CNC routing, but the tool influence on the surface quality must be well understood for further optimization of the cutting parameters. The paper presents an exp...
The evaluation of surface quality is an important criterion to understand the effect of the cutting angle in relation to the grain and of the processing tool on wood. This paper examines, in a comparison, the surface quality of maple cut through by C...
Dimensional analysis under linguistic Pythagorean fuzzy set (DA-LPFS) is a technique to handle qualitative (intangible) as well as the interactions between criteria, by combining dimensional analysis (DA) and Pythagorean fuzzy set (PFS) with linguist...
Computer vision techniques can monitor the rotational speed of rotating equipment or machines to understand their working conditions and prevent failures. Such techniques are highly precise, contactless, and potentially suitable for applications with...
Composite materials have the advantages of high strength and low weight, and are therefore used in many areas. However, in humid and marine environments, mechanical properties may deteriorate due to moisture diffusion, especially in glass fiber reinf...
Metal additive manufacturing techniques have seen technological advancements in recent years, fueled by their ability to provide industrial use parts with excellent mechanical properties. Wire Arc Additive Manufacturing is a technology that is being...
