This study aimed to clarify the mechanism of the spherical to cylindrical deformation shift in peen forming, through experiments and numerical simulations using the finite element method by varying the specimen geometry, nozzle trajectory, and air pressure. The deformation of sheets, 200 mm × 200 mm × 2 mm (length, width, thickness), shifted from spherical to cylindrical at an approximate curvature of 0.4 m<sup>−1</sup>. These shifts occurred at smaller curvatures in wider specimens. Numerical simulation using a three-step finite element method was used to calculate the spherical to cylindrical deformation shift. The simple spherical bending model showed that the deformation shifted from spherical to cylindrical, when the strain in the center of the thickness at the edge of the sheet was compressive.

Prior to the model training process, the critical grinding parameters for brass material were selected and optimized using the Taguchi method. The experimental grinding force data were then collected and preprocessed into three features: the raw feature as the baseline feature, the statistical feature, and the fast Fourier transform (FFT) feature. The data were imported into a linear regression model as the baseline model and a deep neural network (DNN) model as the proposed strategy. The widely used surface roughness (Ra) of the ground workpiece was experimentally measured and served as the performance index. The model’s performance was evaluated based on the mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) between the predicted and measured Ra values. The validation of the Ra prediction revealed that, among all test combinations, the DNN model with four hidden layers and the FFT feature as the input had the best performance of surface roughness prediction, with a MAPE of 3.17%. The independent testing and evaluation of the DNN model with the FFT feature yielded a MAPE of 6.96%, indicating that the proposed strategy effectively predicted the surface roughness of the workpiece. This work also proposes an automatic regrinding strategy in which the grinding system automatically regrinds the workpiece if the predicted Ra of the workpiece in the previous grinding process exceeds the threshold. Experimental results confirmed that among 24 ground areas, two areas have roughness exceeding the threshold and need to be regrind, and the proposed strategy can correctly identify and regrind these two areas (100% success rate).

To overcome this limitation, this study utilizes a computer-aided engineering (CAE) framework to optimize the configuration of the Tetra II joint and enhance its ROM. The resultant optimized joint, referred to as Tetra III, is subsequently compared to Tetra II in terms of both ROM and center shift. Finite element models (FEM) are employed to validate the optimization results and examine how various tetrahedron-shaped geometries impact the joint’s performance. The newly optimized joint exhibits a significantly higher ROM compared to the previous version, while maintaining excellent precision and overall smaller dimensions.

The decomposition of the critical load into its respective shear, tensile, and bending moment components is influenced by the rigid body motion during their corresponding mechanical tests. Continuous tracking of the weld orientation and the deformed coupons is required for accurate determination of the load components at the onset of failure. A comprehensive experimental investigation was performed to characterize the critical failure load components in combined loading using various orientations of KS-II tests and a range of coach peel coupon geometries. Mechanical testing was coupled with digital image correlation (DIC) to systematically evaluate empirical force-based failure models for resistance spot welds of two third generation advanced high strength steels with optimal and suboptimal fusion zone diameters. New analysis methodologies using DIC were developed to account for rotation and deformation of the joint in the determination of the shear, normal, and bending moments acting on the spot-welded joints. The coach peel test results for both steels revealed a non-convex experimental fracture locus in bending-tension loading cases. The conventional assumption of a convex failure locus overestimated the critical bending moment strength between 7 and 66%. Results indicated that changes in the operative failure mechanism from pullout/partial-pullout to interfacial can expand the fracture loci within the shear-tensile loading mixities.

Validations performed using real sensor data, accounting for partial wear on auger screw flights, show an ~11% discrepancy without accounting for screw wear and ~6% when considering it. A 2D convection-diffusion model was introduced as a dimensionality reduced order model (ROM) with the intention of bridging the gap between comprehensive CFD simulations and real-time applications. Central to this model’s prediction ability was both the velocity field transfer from the CFD model and calibration of the ROM diffusion coefficient such that a precise agreement of residence time distribution (RTD) curves could be obtained. Some discrepancies between the CFD and the ROM were observed, attributed to the loss of physical information of the system when transitioning from a higher fidelity CFD model to a semi-mechanistic ROM and the inherent complexities of the starved flow in the compression zone of the extruder.
