This method is used to form parts that conduct electricity. This method of machining has used for hard materials and therefore select the correct values of parameters are so effective on the quality machining of parts. D3 steel has a high abrasion resistance at low temperatures therefore can be a good candidate for this method of machining. Also because of high hardness and low distortion during heat treatment, using this method is economical for this alloy. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the influence of the main parameters such as voltage, current, pulse duration and pulse off time and the interaction of them to determine the optimal condition for the D3 steel alloy (alloy with DIN 1.2080). Chip removal rate (MRR) and surface quality of parts were evaluated as the output characteristic of the study. The optimum conditions were achieved when the MRR is in the highest value and surface roughness is in the lowest one. For investigation of interaction, two kinds of DOE methods (Taguchi and determinant of optimal experimental design) are used. Then the optimal parameters are investigated with the help of the analysis signal to noise (S/N) and mathematical modeling. The optimize results were tested again and compared. Also the results showed that regression modeling has better accuracy than the S/N analysis. This is because of a greater number of experiments that done in this part and taking into account the interaction parameters in the regression model.","PeriodicalId":55961,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2017-06-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.3329/JNAME.V14I1.31632","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46541553","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}

At sea, ships rarely voyage in head wave conditions, and mostly prefer oblique waves for lower resistance and better propulsion. This paper provides oblique wave simulation results for a container, tanker and bulk carrier using a commercial potential flow (PF) based solver, HydroSTAR. Although, PF codes have limitation regarding resistance prediction, they are well reliable in predicting ship motion in waves. The paper aims at providing a relative comparison of ship resistance and motion in different heading angles for three major ship models namely KCS, KVLCC2 and JBC.

The turbulent flow fields were calculated via numerical solutions of the NavierStokes (NS) equations without a turbulence model (laminar flow computation), large eddy simulation (LES), and Reynolds-Averaged N-S equations (RANS) approach with the shear-stress transport (SST) turbulence model. The primary goal is to evaluate the performance of 2-D turbulence simulation with different approaches and to have preliminary knowledge of the forces on the plane which is important in studying scours and flow-induced vibration in ocean engineering. Results show that although a coarse mesh scheme can only obtain potential flows, the laminar approach with high mesh resolution can adequately simulate turbulent flows at moderate Reynolds numbers. Spatially, the fluctuating forces on the plane surface due to the flow are significant within three times the cylinder diameter in the downstream, and within one cylinder diameter in the upstream of the cylinder. The pressure fluctuations are approximately two orders of magnitude larger than the shear stress fluctuations. In the frequency domain, the fluctuating forces are significant under twice the vortex-shedding frequency. Within one cylinder diameter in the downstream and upstream regions of the cylinder, the pressure fluctuations on the plane surface are well correlated, while the shear stress is not so well correlated.","PeriodicalId":55961,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2017-06-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.3329/JNAME.V14I1.27967","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42853792","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}

Further, graphical representation has been given to study the effects of various physical parameters on velocity, temperature and concentration fields. Also numerical computations has been carried out to investigate the influence of the physical parameters involved in the flow on skin friction, rate of heat and mass transfer coefficients. Through this investigation, it is observed that aligned angle, Casson parameter and velocity slip parameter have the tendency to control the velocity field.
