Multi-response Optimization of Process Parameter of Spark Erosion Electric Discharge Machining Using Principal Component Analysis Coupled with TOPSIS
Abstract: Electric Discharge Machining (EDM) is a thermo-electric non-traditional machining process in which material removal takes place through the process of controlled spark generation between a pair of electrodes submerged in a dielectric fluid. Due to difficulty in the availability of EDM, it is very complicated to determine optimal process parameters for improving performance. Therefore, optimization of process parameters is an important action in machining, especially for nontraditional machining procedures like …
