Abstract

The current research consists of a machining process involving AISI steel where the input parameters are the cutting depth, feed rate and cutting speed while the responses include the cutting force, surface roughness and tool wear. Usually, heat is generated during the turning process and various machining processes, and to reduce it, coolants are considered. In this work, CuO and Al2O3 were used as nano lubricants (MQL). Data obtained from the machining process were inserted into Minitab 18 software where quadratic objective functions were formulated as related to each output concerning the input parameters. Objective functions were optimized with the aid of C++ programming code. The cuckoo search algorithm was used for the optimization process of the work. This work clearly shows a reduction of the output parameters that is, cutting force from 243N to 127.20N, surface roughness from 0.66µm to 0.368µm and tool wear from 0.069mm to 0.0046mm using CuO as the nano lubricant. While using Al2O3, cutting force was lowered from 363N to 197.63N, surface roughness from 1.98µm to 0.148µm and tool wear from 0.219mm to 0.063mm. This clearly shows that using CuO helps to obtain a better cutting force coupled with elongation of the tool life but Al2O3 best gives a better surface finish.

Abstract

The aspect-based Taguchi optimization approaches have been newly accepted as important routes to optimizing the turning experimental parameters. Unfortunately, due to its embryonic development, scholars have left unexplained the effects of introducing the aspect ratios on the optimal parametric setting. To correct this deficiency, this article proposes an approach to evaluating the effects of introducing aspect ratios in turning experiments, combined with direct factors, on the optimal parametric settings. To correct this deficiency, the purpose of this article is to highlight that a standard universal evaluation method is absent in optimization analysis using the Taguchi method; it proposes an approach to evaluating the effects of introducing aspect ratios in turning experiments, in combination with direct factors, on the optimal parametric settings. Using A novel method of establishing the influence of introducing aspect ratios on the optimal parametric settings is suggested using literature review, and the examination method may be a solid basis for optimal parametric setting evaluations in future undertakings of turning operational evaluations. The Inconel X750 alloy is considered in turning operations, and experimental data from the literature are used to illustrate the method. This article finds that quantifiable differences in the mean values of optimal parametric settings exist for the turning operation of Inconel X750 alloy. The study's originality is its attention to the aspect ratio analysis regarding the optimal parametric setting in a wide range of values. This article aims to initiate discussions for a universal agreement on how the influence of introducing the aspect ratios in the factor-level combination framework of the Taguchi method may be constituted. The utility of this research effort is to enhance resource distribution planning fog turning zero material.

Abstract

Optimization of welding parameters is essential on austenitic stainless steel for industrial applications since they declare the best parameters compared with prioritized constraints. However, available optimization methods, such as the Taguchi method, widely used in this research domain, are weak. Their results are merely comparative and fail to particularly show the specific factor that displays the highest performance in the process. In this paper, the aim is specifically to position the parameters in order of importance and present them in a grey wolf optimization framework. The ultimate tensile strength and yield strength were optimized, and the optimization was conducted using the C++ programming code. Literature data were analyzed for austenitic stainless steel under un-notched/smooth and notched specimen conditions. Empirical models were developed for the ultimate tensile strength and yield strength, among other principal criteria of the material. For the ultimate tensile strength, the best value was obtained at the 100th iteration as 640.75. For the yield strength, the best value of 394.98 was obtained after 100 iterations. A value of 31.07 for the PE was obtained. These results are for the unnotched specimens. However, the PE, NTS, and yield strength values for the notched specimens are 16.32, 780.12, and 494.46, respectively. Based on the findings of this study and compared with other optimization methods, the optimal parameters and outputs predicted using the grey wolf optimization approach were found to produce reliable results. This shows that the grey wolf optimization approach is a good option for predicting the optimal parameters of the tungsten arc welding process by utilizing austenitic stainless steel. The usefulness of this research effort is to help process engineers to implement robust and effective cost decisions in the production of materials based on austenitic stainless steel.

Abstract

In the drilling operation, defects such as delamination at exit and entry are very disturbing responses that impact the efficiency of the drilling process. Without control, an exponential growth in the amount of drilled components with defect quantities may result. Thus, the process engineer has input in attaining the desired production levels for components in the drilling process. Consequently, this article deploys a novel method of data envelopment analysis to evaluate the relative efficiency of the drilling process in reducing the defects possible in the producing components from the CFRP composites. The high-speed steel drill bits were utilized to process the CFPs, while the responses considered are the entry and exit determination, thrust force, and torque, among others. Literature experimental data in twenty-seven experimental counts were summarized into fewer groups and processed through the data envelopment analysis method. The results show that capturing the CFRP composite responses is feasible, providing an opportunity for enhanced efficiency and a situation where undesirable defects in the CFRP composite production process may be eradicated. The article’s uniqueness and primary value are in being the foremost article in offering an updated vast representation of the comparative efficiency of CFRP composite parameters within the literature for the composite area. The work adds value to the CFRP composite literature by envisaging and understanding the comparative efficiency for the parameters, identifying and separating the best from the worst decision-making unit. It also reveals how the parameters are linked by their relative placements. The article's novelty is that using data envelopment to compare the efficiency in reducing drilling defects such as entry and exit determination, among others. The method’s utility is to provide information for cost-effective drilling operations during the planning and control phases of the operation.
