This study presents an analysis of warping that occurs in the laminated object manufacturing process. Based on the study of thermal-mechanical behavior of the adhesive and its effect on the laminated materials, the cause of warping, the relationship between temperature and adhesive viscosity, and the adhesive connecting intensity is investigated. A heat transfer mathematical model and finite difference solution algorithm was developed to calculate the intralaminar thermal force induced by the material addition in the processing of laminated object manufacturing. The results of the model prediction were compared to available experimental data. Simulation of intralaminar thermal force and case studies show that the processing parameters, such as roller temperature, speed, and contact pressure, the mechanical properties of laminated material and adhesive will all contribute to the formability and warping of the laminated prototype. An optimal combination of the processing parameters may reduce the undesired warping effect.

Multi-column envelope engaging couples have been proposed for single screw compressors to reduce the friction and prolong the operational life. However, little is mentioned about the relationship between columns at opposite sides of the star-wheel teeth. An imbalance in the lubricant film forces would appear and influence the lubrication between the tooth and the groove. During a real design process, it is necessary to try several times for each different type of compressor to find the optimal combination of columns. In part, due to the large number of columns, it also makes both manufacturing processing and product testing difficult. In this paper, a synergy-column design method and its related manufacturing methods are presented. The locations and relationships of the designed columns can be prescribed by given the tooth width. Manufacturing of the rotor and star-wheel shows the new design method can be more efficient through processing. The stable operation results prove that the synergy-column envelope meshing pair can solve the star-wheel’s wear-out problem.

A traditional multimedia system presents the same static content and suggests the same next page to all users, even though they might have widely differing knowledge of the subject. Such a system suffers from an inability to be all things to all people, especially when the user population is relatively diverse. The rapid growth of mobile and wireless communication allowed service providers to develop new ways of interactions, enabling users to become accustomed to new means of multimedia-based service consumption in an anytime, anywhere, and anyhow manner. This chapter investigates the new multi-channel constraints and opportunities emerged by these technologies, as well as the new user-demanding requirements that arise. It further examines the relationship between the adaptation and personalization research considerations, and proposes a three-layer architecture for adaptation and personalization of Web-based multimedia content based on the “new” user profile, with visual, emotional, and cognitive processing parameters incorporated.

Magnesium alloys attract attention as degradable implant materials due to their adjustable corrosion properties and biocompatibility. In the last few decades, especially wrought magnesium alloys with enhanced mechanical properties have been developed, with the main aim of increasing ductility and formability. Alloying and processing studies allowed demonstrating the relationship between the processing and the microstructure development for many new magnesium alloys. Based on this experience, magnesium alloy compositions need adjustment to elements improving mechanical properties while being suitable for biomaterial applications. In this work, magnesium alloys from two Mg-Zn series with Ce (ZE) or Ca (ZX) as additional elements and a series of alloys with Ag and Ca (QX) as alloying elements are suggested. The microstructure development was studied after the extrusion of round bars with varied processing parameters and was related to the mechanical properties and the degradation behavior of the alloys. Grain refinement and texture weakening mechanisms could be improved based on the alloy composition for enhancing the mechanical properties. Degradation rates largely depended on the nature of second phase particles rather than on the grain size, but remained suitable for biological applications. Furthermore, all alloy compositions exhibited promising cytocompatibility.

Wiresaw has emerged as a leading technology in wafer preparation for microelectronics fabrication, especially in slicing large silicon wafers (diameter⩾300 mm) for both microelectronic and photovoltaic applications. Wiresaw has also been employed to slice other brittle materials such as alumina, quartz, glass, and ceramics. The manufacturing process of wiresaw is a free abrasive machining (FAM) process. Specifically, the wiresaw cuts brittle materials through the “rolling-indenting” and “scratch-indenting” processes where the materials removal is resulting from mechanical interactions between the substrate of the workpiece and loss abrasives, which are trapped between workpiece and wire. Built upon results of previous investigation in modeling of wiresaw, a model of wiresaw slicing is developed based on indentation crack as well as the influence of wire carrying the abrasives. This model is used to predict the relationship between the rate of material removal and the mechanical properties of the workpiece together with the process parameters. The rolling, indenting, and scratching modes of materials removal are considered with a simple stochastic approach. The model provides us with the basis for improving the efficiency of the wiresaw manufacturing process based on the process parameters.

In recent years, as consumers have increasingly higher demands for the functionality of clothing, fabrics with additional functionality have been developed. The state of physical functionality experienced by a wearer under a given environmental condition is greatly influenced by the tactile, thermal and moisture transport properties of the fabric. In modern textiles, finishing is generally used to improve the appearance or other properties of fabrics. Sueding is a common finishing method. In order to meet the requirements of functionality in the process of sueding, the production process must be adjusted according to the features of the fabrics. The main method is the setting of processing parameters. This study focuses on the water vapor transmission and thermal transport, which are the main functional characteristics, and uses the fuzzy approach to acquire the combination of sueding processing parameters to optimize multiple functional characteristics. Firstly, for the main processing parameters of the sueding machine, the Taguchi method is used to obtain an orthogonal array for the experimental design. The measured water vapor transmission and thermal transport data of the fabric are used to calculate the signal-to-noise ratio. An analysis of variance is conducted to obtain the significant factors with a greater impact on functional characteristics. The fuzzy approach is used to analyze and obtain the optimal combination of processing parameters of multiple functional characteristics. This optimal combination of processing parameters is used to set the processing parameters. The reliability and reproducibility of the experiment are verified by confirmation experiments.

Lancet needle is a typical medical treatment device. Its tip consists of two lancet planes and one bevel plane. When the lancet needle is inserted into soft organ tissue, the insertion force may influence the needle cutting direction and treatment effect and increase the pain. One of the main factors affecting this insertion force is the geometry of the needle tip. Based on the research on the shape and processing method of the conventional lancet needle, a new lancet needle tip geometry was obtained by adjusting the relative position of the grinding wheel to the needle. A mathematical model of this new lancet needle was established. The relationship between processing parameters and needle shape was analyzed, and the needle insertion force was predicted. Compared with the conventional lancet needle, the new lancet needle is sharper, and the insertion force on the cutting edge is smaller. However, this change in the grinding position of the needle lancet plane has a great influence on the shape of needle tip near the intersection of the bevel plane and the lancet plane. Some special second bevel angle and rotated angle will cause a large change in the specific force at the intersection place, which is not conducive to reducing the insertion force.

Drilling parameters have great influences on hole accuracy and defect production. In this study, single factor test is applied to obtain the relationship between the torque deviation and the spindle speed n at different feeds per revolution fr. White Light Interferometer (WLI) is applied to measure the hole shape. Based on the frequency domain analysis of torque deviation, the cause of hole shape deviation is investigated. Relationship between the hole shape accuracy and drilling parameters is established, which can be used to predict the hole shape by analyzing the torque deviation. Moreover, the reasonable processing parameters can be selected to obtain drilling hole with ideal shape and satisfying production efficiency.
