Parameter Identification of Vibrating MIMO Mass-Spring-Damper Mechanical Systems with Coulomb Friction
Abstract: This study presents a time-domain method for identifying parameters in multi-degree-of-freedom (DOF) linear mass-spring-damper systems that include Coulomb friction, where the friction coefficient varies within a limited range, using measurements of position and control force. For mass identification in single-degree-of-freedom (DOF) vibrating mechanical systems with stiffness and no damping but Coulomb friction, the friction term is eliminated by first derivative processing. In addition, the identification of the coefficient of friction …

Machine Learning-Driven Force Analysis for Tool Wear Prediction Systems
Abstract: A system designed to forecast tool wear by utilizing a force sensor to monitor the wear of the tool's flank and applying a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) for forecasting purposes. The methodology is demonstrated through experiments in milling, utilizing dry machining with a ball endmill on a stainless-steel component. The flank wear of the tool is directly assessed using a digital microscope throughout the operation. The forecasts produced by the …

A Novel Approach to Ceiling Fan-Based System for Preventing Suicide by Hanging
Abstract: Suicide by hanging has become a significant public health issue in India. According to reports from the National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB), a considerable number of hanging cases are reported annually, with the majority being suicidal in nature. Homicidal cases disguised as hanging are extremely rare. Accurate differentiation between suicidal and homicidal hanging requires thorough examination of the crime scene in an undisturbed condition, followed by a detailed autopsy investigation. …

Use of Geopolymer Composites for Controlling Structural Cracks
Abstract: A building’s safety and stability can be compromised by ignoring the potential structural issues indicated by occurring cracks in buildings. Extensive damage may cause over the period from unidentified cracks.Good quality concrete never cracks in normal service conditions unless high horizontal force is applied. Through the cracks, carbon dioxide is released into the concrete and speeds up carbonation throughout the cracks, thus reducing the structure usage. The materials which are …
