The method employs the direct projection technique to generate surface meshes on the point cloud, followed by variable-attitude oscillatory filling. The low-carbon steel grid used during the repair effectively inhibits crack propagation in HCCI, preventing the spalling of the deposited metal. Comparative analysis of stress distributions among the zigzag, contour offset and grid path planning revealed that the grid path reduced peak stress and variance by 29.8 % and 9.6 %, respectively. The microstructure of the HCCI grate plate body consists of primary austenite and martensite. Martensitic transformation occurs at the interface between eutectic carbides and primary austenite, where lath martensite encapsulates the eutectic carbides. Both primary carbides and eutectic carbides exhibit a hexagonal close-packed structure with similar crystallographic characteristics. The M₇C₃ carbides formed a robust wear-resistant framework, preventing abrasive particles from penetrating the matrix and reducing continuous sliding on the wear surface. Primary austenite provided critical structural support, preventing carbide detachment and significantly improving the material’s wear resistance. At 750 °C, the wear rate of the deposited metal was measured at 2.02 %, while at room temperature, it was 1.46 %. Both rates were significantly lower than the 3.71 % wear rate of the deposited metal on the currently used grate plates. The wear surface of HCCI exhibits numerous plow grooves, microcracks, and carbide spalling, which generate abrasive particles and accelerate wear. The dominant wear mechanism is a combination of micro-cutting and fracture-induced spalling.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":56011,"journal":{"name":"CIRP Journal of Manufacturing Science and Technology","volume":"61 ","pages":"Pages 19-34"},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2025-06-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144220803","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Accordingly, this study systematically investigated the interaction mechanism between the tool and the workpiece during trimming. It turned out that vibration velocity and displacement of the workpiece have non-ignorable effects on the direction of cutting velocity, engagement position between tool and workpiece, resulting in state-dependent inclination angle, instantaneous rotation angle and time delay. Consequently, a dynamic cutting force model that incorporates workpiece vibration-based modulation effects was developed, which effectively captured the change in the direction of cutting force along the tool axis. Furthermore, both simulation and experimental results demonstrated that workpiece vibration can reduce the amplitude of cutting force compared to rigid trimming. Additionally, surface comparisons of the workpieces after trimming were conducted, showing no obvious difference between short and long overhanging workpieces. This indicated that long overhanging thin-walled workpieces can be a feasible choice for trimming under certain conditions.

The assembly is modeled as a structure consisting of two substructures—an outer tube and an embedded inner cylinder—with a coincident neutral axis, and is then divided axially into multiple segments. For each assembly segment, the FRFs of its substructural components, i.e., the tube and cylinder segments, are theoretically calculated using Timoshenko beam theory. A new receptance coupling principle is established at the two endpoints of each assembly tube and cylinder segment based on their deformation and compatibility conditions. The overall FRFs for each assembly segment are synthesized from the theoretically calculated values of its corresponding tube and cylinder segments. By employing classical receptance coupling substructure analysis (RCSA), the FRFs of the entire assembly are obtained by coupling the individual segment FRFs. Unlike traditional multi-point coupling methods, which generate intermediate matrices strongly dependent on the number of coupling points, the proposed method yields a fixed 4 × 4 intermediate matrix, fully independent of the coupling points. This feature simplifies the calculation procedure to a summation across all segments, eliminating the need for complex iterations required by conventional methods.

However, due to their inherently low stiffness—encompassing shear, bending, and torsional stiffness—these components are highly susceptible to deformation during machining. This deformation can adversely affect the geometric integrity and machining precision of the component, including dimensional accuracy, shape accuracy, and positional accuracy. Controlling the deformation of thin-walled components has thus become a critical research focus in recent years. This paper reviews the latest developments in the types of machining deformation, deformation mechanisms, and deformation control strategies for thin-walled components, aiming to equip readers with dynamic approaches for achieving high efficiency and precision in thin-walled component machining. The first section provides an overview of the definition, classification, and factors affecting the machining accuracy of thin-walled components. The second section discusses the mechanisms behind the deformation of thin-walled components, which result from a combination of multiple factors, including deformation caused by cutting forces, cutting temperature, residual stress, fixturing, and machining chatter. The third section reviews several methods for controlling deformation, including adaptive machining and error compensation, stability lobe diagrams and chatter suppression, deformation prediction and control, and energy field-assisted machining. These methods allow for the control and prevention of thin-walled component deformation before, during, and after machining. Finally, the paper summarizes the current challenges in thin-walled component machining and outlines future development trends. The research content and methods introduced in this paper, including theoretical analysis, experimental validation, and simulation analysis, provide researchers with a clear background and research roadmap, contributing to the exploration and improvement of high-precision machining techniques for thin-walled components in future research.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":56011,"journal":{"name":"CIRP Journal of Manufacturing Science and Technology","volume":"60 ","pages":"Pages 322-355"},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2025-06-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144203490","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the current surface texturing methods for zirconia ceramic dentures, primarily laser ablation or grinding, often induce severe surface damage due to their high hardness. In this study, a coating-assisted rotary ultrasonic grinding (CUG) process is proposed to fabricate microgrooves on zirconia ceramic. This method aims to improve surface quality by leveraging the local embrittlement caused by the mechanochemical effects of the coating and ultrasonic vibration. A series of surface texturing, grinding, and nanoindentation tests are conducted to evaluate the process performance and underlying mechanism of the CUG. The results demonstrate that compared to conventional grinding (CG), CUG can reduce the surface roughness of the microgrooves by an average of 73.4 % and decrease the cutting force by an average of 72.7 %. The process mechanism of CUG can be attributed to the synergistic effects between the surface coating and ultrasonic grinding, both causing local embrittlement of zirconia ceramics, increasing small local cracks, and reducing larger macro defects. Additionally, the effects of microgrooves on surface performance, including wettability, tribological behavior, and bacteria adhesion, are assessed. Compared to a smooth surface, the CUG textured surface exhibits excellent hydrophobic properties, the friction coefficient reduced by 50.6 %, and an increase in the bacteriostatic rate by 74.7 %.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":56011,"journal":{"name":"CIRP Journal of Manufacturing Science and Technology","volume":"60 ","pages":"Pages 307-321"},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2025-06-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144190198","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Hence, particular attention is devoted to the inspection of each wafer layer, having 100 % measurements of markers distributed across a wafer with subsequent long inspection times. At the same time, process control is based on each layer’s overall measurements, discouraging companies from improving productivity by reducing inspection time. As a consequence, in this context, the product, process and system are extremely inter-related. Recent developments in joint product-process modelling show that robust model-based control coupled with optimal down-selection of measurement markers enables improved process control without decreasing the quality. However, when considering the system level effects, new dynamics should be accounted for in order to make decisions about production system configuration and operations. This paper proposes a novel analytical model for the evaluation of quality and productivity performance in manufacturing systems characterized by propagation of quality errors, process adaptation and alternative inspection policies. The proposed model is general, but particularly useful for the semiconductor sector. Application of this method to an industrial-scale semiconductor manufacturing system shows that when product-process-system are considered together, global optimal solutions can be achieved.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":56011,"journal":{"name":"CIRP Journal of Manufacturing Science and Technology","volume":"60 ","pages":"Pages 296-306"},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2025-05-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144185073","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The core of this approach is to construct a conservative velocity curve and iteratively increase the feasible velocity curve while adhering to kinematic and dynamic constraints. In this approach, a polynomial profile is given to achieve smooth velocity transitions between adjacent path points, effectively modeling the acceleration and deceleration processes. Based on this polynomial profile, a conservative velocity curve consisting of three stages—acceleration, constant velocity, and deceleration—is constructed. The velocity in the constant velocity stage and the number of path points involved in the acceleration and deceleration stages are determined using the bisection method. Subsequently, the velocity in the constant velocity stage of the conservative or the previous velocity curve is increased following the same way that constructs the conservative velocity curve. This process is repeated until the number of path points in all constant velocity stages is below a given threshold. The proposed approach can be implemented on complex geometric paths of a 6-DOF manipulator while satisfying all kinematic and dynamic constraints.
