"Residual stresses and structural changes generated at different steps of the manufacturing of gears: Effect of banded structures"
Banded ferrite–pearlite structures, and in general chemically inhomogeneous structures, react non uniformly to elevated temperatures during forging and/or subsequent heat treatment processes, affecting the final stress state (plastic deformation is required to accommodate dissimilar thermal expansion behavior for each phase) and consequently leading to distortions.
Tribological behavior of nanocomposite coatings based on fullerene-like structures
This paper presents a new group of nanocomposite coatings based on integrating inorganic fullerene-like material (IFLM) structures into conventional coating matrices.
A Bayesian network model integrated in a prognostics and health management system for aircraft line maintenance
The maintenance strategies of different industrial sectors are changing and evolving continuously in search of cost reduction, optimization of the operational reliability, the availability, and the resources used.
Alternative eco-friendly tubes for clean two-stroke engines
High performance lubricant for clean two-stroke engines operating with ethanol-containing fuels was developed by the selection of the optimal synthetic esters base oil followed by an improvement of the additives composition.
Data mining for quality control: Burr detection in the drilling process
Drilling process is one of the most important operations in aeronautic industry. It is performed on the wings of the aeroplanes and its main problem lies with the burr generation.
Particle Filtering for People Following Behavior Using Laser Scans and Stereo Vision
Mobile robots have a large application potential in everyday life. To build those applications some common and basic behaviors should be initially consolidated, including a people following behavior.
