Abstract

The nitinol-60 shape memory alloy has been rated as the most widely utilized material in real-life industrial applications, including biomedical appliances, coupling and sealing elements, and activators, among others. However, less is known about its optimization characteristics while taking advantage to choose the best parameter in a surface integrity analysis using the wire EDM process. In this research, the authors proposed a robust Taguchi-Pareto (TP)-grey wolf optimization (GWO)-desirability function analysis (DFA) scheme that hybridizes the TP method, GWO approach, and DFA method. The point of coupling of the TP method to the GWO is the introduction of the discriminated signal-to-noise ratios contained in the selected 80-20 Pareto rule of the TP method into the objective function of the GWO, which was converted from multiple responses to a single response accommodated by the GWO. The comparative results of five outputs of the wire EDM process before and after optimization reveals the following understanding. For the CR, a gain of 398% was observed whereas for the outputs named Rz, Rt, SCD, and RLT, losses of 0.0996, 0.0875, 0.0821, and 0.0332 were recorded. This discrimination of signal-to-noise ratio based on the 80-20 rule makes the research different from previous studies, restricting the data fed into the GWO scheme to the most essential to accomplishing the TP-GWO-DFA scheme proposed. The use of the TP-GWO-DFA method is efficient given the limited volume of data required to optimize the wire EDM process parameters of nitinol.

Abstract

It is difficult to improve the quality of friction stir welded joints of AA5052-H32 material because of scarce metrics on its concurrent optimization and prioritization. However, the objective of this article is to obtain optimal parametric values and identify important parameters using the Taguchi-Pareto method during the friction stir welding process of AA5052-H32 material. Then the ranks, delta values and optimal parameters are determined. The critical parameters identified for the friction stir welding process are the tool pin, rotational speed, welding speed and tool angle. When comparing the results of these parameters using the Taguchi method and Taguchi-Pareto method, the rotational speed retained its first position in both methods; the tool tilt angle gained the second position in the Taguchi-Pareto method from its third position when only the Taguchi method was considered. The welding speed became the third position in the Taguchi-Pareto method against the second position that it had in the Taguchi method. However, the tool pin profile retained its last position in both methods. Consequently, the rotational speed is the best parameter while the tool pin profile is the worst parameter. For the Taguchi-Pareto method, the optimal parametric setting is TPP2/TPP4RS1WS4TTA3. This is interpreted as cylindrical tapered or square tapered for the tool profile, 40 rpm of rotational speed, 75 mm/min of welding speed and 1.5° of tool tilt angle. The novelty of this study is the scope of analysis of the AA5052-H32 material that extends beyond the Taguchi method to the Taguchi-Pareto method where the concurrent optimization and prioritization of friction welding parameters are achieved.

Abstract

Concurrent optimization and prioritization of wire EDM parameters can improve resource allocations in material processing and should be effective. This study advances the integrated analytic (AHP)-Taguchi(T)-tournament-based-genetic algorithm (tGA) method to moderate the influence of erroneous resource allocation in parametric analysis decisions in wire electrical discharge machining. The structure builds on the AHP-T method’s platform obtained from the literature and develops it by including the tGA while processing the AZ91 magnesium alloy. The article evaluates the delta values for the average signal-to-noise ratios in the response table and deploys them to arrive at the winners in a league and consequently mutate the chromosomes for performance improvement. The scale of relative importance, consistency index, optimal parametric setting, delta values, and ranks are all established and coupled with the total value and maximum value evaluation at the selection crossover and mutation stages of the genetic algorithm. The results at the mutation, crossover, and selection stages of the tournament selection process showed total values of 124410, 96650, and 70564, respectively. At the selection stage, the maximum value to be the winner of the tournament is 28704. The crossover operation was accomplished after the 5th, 5th, and 6th bit for the first three pairs, respectively. For the selection and crossover operations, the maximum value is 28604 and 27944, respectively. The research clarifies which parameters are the best and worst during optimization using the AHP-T-tGA method.

Abstract

There is limited knowledge on the specific gravity of agro-based fillers, particularly particulate onion peels and snail shells despite their potentials as the ship's hull composite materials. This work reports experimental results on specific gravity concerning particulate onion peels and snail shells as fillers in ship's hull composite fabrication. Specific gravity bottles, water, and 15g each of particulate onion peels, snail shells, and their mixtures were used in laboratory conditions. It was found that onion peel particulates (specific gravity of 1.09± 0.41 for 0.063 mm), snail shell particulates (specific gravity of 0.95 ± 0.01 for 0.063 mm), and mixtures of particulate onion peel and snail shell (specific gravity of 1.02 ± 0.08 for 0.150 mm, 10g particulate onion peels + 5g particulate snail shell) yielded the least values, requiring the least fuel expenditure in generating torque for the desired motions during the ship's voyage. Moreover, a policy to use the snail shell recommendation should be formulated as it is the overall best to help in cost reduction by shipping organizations. Previous studies were on tomatoes and potatoes, among others. However, the present study takes a new direction to innovatively consider hardly studied fillers for polymer composites for the first time.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to establish the importance of parameters in a water absorption process for natural particulate composite for ship’s hull applications. To attain useful and reliable outcomes, the subjective evaluation of the assessor and weights of inputs are combined in a PROMETHEE and analytical hierarchy process (AHP) approach. The PROMETHEE serves the goal of ranking while the AHP is deployed to establish the objective weighing. It was found that time is the heading parameter for the natural particulate thermoset composite solutions, compared with thickness and length. By integrating PROMETHEE and AHP, it was proved that this approach offers a higher level of confidence to composite developers than initiative practices that currently dominate choices of parameters. It is particularly useful for natural particulate water absorption parametric selection since it is an innovative and scientific choice approach involving multicriteria analysis.
