In this work, AE measurements are obtained during a uniaxial tension (UT) test using a custom-made sensor employing piezoelectric crystals. The UT tests are performed on an MTS machine with two AE sensors clamped on each end of the specimen gage section. A low pass Butterworth filter is designed to attenuate the high frequency noise from the AE signals. Also, full-field strain measurements on the specimen surface are acquired using the 2-D digital image correlation (DIC) method. A typical result from a UT test reveals, as the plastic deformation increases, the AE signals from each sensor increase until they reach a maximum value followed by a drop of signal until the specimen fractures. It is found through interrogation of the DIC images that the maximum amplitude from the AE signals corresponds to the early onset of localized necking. The goal of this work is to implement the UT findings in an actual forming process (e.g., cup drawing) and monitor the event in real time using closed loop control to achieve improved formability.","PeriodicalId":23676,"journal":{"name":"Volume 2: Manufacturing Processes; Manufacturing Systems; Nano/Micro/Meso Manufacturing; Quality and Reliability","volume":"46 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88705886","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

MIG WAAM is important for production and large structures due to its high deposition rates compared to Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) or powder-based AM processes. Both MIG and TIG take advantage of wire feedstock, which is more readily available than powdered metals since the welding technology has been established for decades. Powder based processes allow for more complicated geometries but take significantly more time to produce and can suffer from voids which lead to non-uniform part density. TIG is normally used in welding of aluminum because it results in fewer defects, but the TiC/TiB2 nanoparticles eliminate solidification cracking normally associated with high strength aluminum alloys during welding. Porosity is another problem faced when welding aluminum, which can be affected by many things including deposition parameters, atmosphere and even the welding equipment used. Effects of different deposition parameters have been comprehensively studied including the deposition geometry and metallurgical properties. The process is also monitored with current/voltage measurement and high-speed imaging to understand the droplet transfer mode and molten pool development. The results are used to optimize process parameters to achieve the fewest defects possible while comparing different metal transfer modes. Multi-scale characterizations will be performed to examine the porosity distribution, solidification mode and grain size through optical microscopy. Future works will explore the distribution of secondary phases, precipitates, and nanoparticles through scanning electron microscopy (SEM) as well as conducting some mechanical testing of the as built structures such as hardness mapping and tensile tests.","PeriodicalId":23676,"journal":{"name":"Volume 2: Manufacturing Processes; Manufacturing Systems; Nano/Micro/Meso Manufacturing; Quality and Reliability","volume":"462 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79845541","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These are highly capital-intensive and inflexible, making the resulting powders as much as 3–10 times more expensive than corresponding cast ingots. Recently, we have demonstrated a potential alternative route for making metal powders — using surface grinding. The resulting powders have shown promise for use as stock in metal directed energy deposition (DED) processes. This work explores the applicability of these alternatively produced powders for laser sintering and related applications. Spherical metal powder particles (AISI 52100, SS 304) in the range of 5–100 microns were first produced using surface grinding. These powders were post-processed and segregated into monodisperse and polydisperse batches, representing high quality-low yield and low-quality-high yield stock, respectively. A high-power fiber laser source of 50 microns spot diameter was used to sinter these two stock powders, with nitrogen as a shielding gas, and their performance was evaluated using a range of ex situ analysis techniques. The latter included metallography, SEM/EDS and XRD analysis and was used to evaluate sintering quality in both cases, including melt pool and heat-affected zone characterization. Based on these results, we present recommendations for the use of mono- and polydisperse metallic powders and demonstrate the potential utility of using grinding as an alternative technique for the production of metal powders for laser sintering applications.","PeriodicalId":23676,"journal":{"name":"Volume 2: Manufacturing Processes; Manufacturing Systems; Nano/Micro/Meso Manufacturing; Quality and Reliability","volume":"3999 2 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86687505","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The see-through head-mounted displays (STHMDs), based on either optical see-through or video see-through technologies, are the primary AR device to augment the visual perception of the real environment with computer-generated contents through a hand-free headset. Specifically, the video see-through STHMDs process the superimposing of the real environment and virtual contents based on the digital images and output it to users, while optical see-through STHMDs display virtual contents through the optics-based near-eyes display with users’ normal view of the real scene kept. For both types of AR devices, the accuracy of visualization is essential. For example, in AR-based human-robot interaction, the inaccurate rendering of 3D virtual objects with respect to the real environment, will lead to users’ mistaking operations, and therefore, causes an invalid tool path planning result. In spite of many works related to system calibration and error reduction for optical see-through STHMDs, there are few efforts at figuring out the nature and factors of those errors in video see-through STHMDs. In this paper, taking consumer-available AR video see-through STHMDs as an example, we identify error sources of registration and build a mathematical model of the display progress to describe the error propagation in the stereo video see-through systems. Then, based on the mathematical model of the system, the sensitivity of each error source to the final registration error is analyzed. Finally, possible solutions of error correction are suggested and summarized in the general video see-through STHMDs.","PeriodicalId":23676,"journal":{"name":"Volume 2: Manufacturing Processes; Manufacturing Systems; Nano/Micro/Meso Manufacturing; Quality and Reliability","volume":"161 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77211568","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Conventionally, experts identify patterns of interest in SEM images and link them to fracture phenomena based on knowledge and experience. Such practice has substantial limitations. It relies on expert opinions for decision-making, which poses barriers for practitioners without relevant background; manual inspection must be done for individual SEM images, thus time-consuming and inapt for industrial automation. There is a genuine demand for a fast, automatic method for fractographic pattern recognition. Targeting the problem, this study proposes a two-stage data-driven approach based on clustering. In offline analysis (Stage 1), a clustering algorithm identifies the generic fractographic patterns on part. Each pattern corresponds to a cluster. Expert evaluation of the part’s crack status is leveraged to map individual patterns (clusters) to a crack type. In in-situ monitoring (Stage 2), SEM images of new parts are matched to the clusters from stage 1, which reveals the generic patterns on the part and indicates the potential crack status. The proposed approach enables automatic fractographic analysis without experts. It is demonstrated to be effective on real SEM images of additively manufactured Inconel-718 specimens subjected to high cycle fatigue.","PeriodicalId":23676,"journal":{"name":"Volume 2: Manufacturing Processes; Manufacturing Systems; Nano/Micro/Meso Manufacturing; Quality and Reliability","volume":"75 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83298023","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The tool wear prediction results indicate 23.92% and 36.41% average error for all the testing samples after 1/3 of the operations for profiling and straight turning, respectively. When the tool wear prediction was carried out after 2/3 of the operations, excellent results are observed with 6.15% error for profiling and 9.44% error for straight turning.

Directed energy deposition (DED) is one such AM process that has the inherent advantage of producing multi-material components on complex pre-existing geometries. Significant recent interest in DED processes has been driven by the need for inexpensive powders and potential material recycling. In this work, we explore the possibility of using non-standard arbitrary shaped metal powders within the DED process. A standard numerical model, comprising a three-dimensional viscous, compressible, turbulent solver with two-way discrete phase coupling is employed to understand the mechanics of gas-driven non-spherical powder flow. Spatial distributions of non-spherical powder on a set of pre-existing geometric features (e.g., corners, curved surfaces) are evaluateds and compared with standard spherical powders. The effect of particle collisions on the substrate is evaluated and corresponding density distributions are quantified. Non-spherical particles are generally found to exhibit higher velocities, and greater deposition track width, compared to spherical particles. Our simulations also reveal the effect of particle shape on their flow properties and final powder density. Using a custom-built DED configuration, we present preliminary experimental results of single-track depositions using both spherical and non-spherical powder particles. Based on our findings, we make a case for the use of non-spherical powders for DED applications.","PeriodicalId":23676,"journal":{"name":"Volume 2: Manufacturing Processes; Manufacturing Systems; Nano/Micro/Meso Manufacturing; Quality and Reliability","volume":"852 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74227154","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
