Artificial Neural Network Modelling to Optimize Micro-Drilling Parameters of ECDM of Developed Novel Zn/(Ag+Fe)-MMC
Abstract: Several engineering fields have increased their use of metal matrix composites (MMCs) in the past few years. Due to the increase in composites, the demand for accurate machining has also become important. Specifically, pertaining to biomaterial applications, accuracy factor with desired surface finish is critical. While the near-net shape manufacturing process has advanced, MMCs frequently require post-mould machining to achieve surface quality, and dimensional tolerances. In the present study, a …

Hybrid Machining Processes in Advanced Manufacturing: A Review of Mechanisms and Industrial Applications
Abstract: Hybrid machining processes (HMPs) have gained considerable attention in recent years as an effective approach to address the growing complexity and performance demands of modern manufacturing systems. These processes combine two or more machining techniques—such as mechanical, thermal, chemical, or electrical methods—into a single setup, enabling enhanced productivity, precision, and adaptability, particularly for hard-to-machine materials like ceramics, composites, and superalloys. The integration of distinct energy sources results in synergistic effects …

Enhancing Performance of Hybrid Natural Fiber Reinforced Polymer: Insights into Processing, Characterization and Machining
Abstract: Natural fibre reinforced polymer composites (N-FRP) have gained popularity in recent years as an alternative to regular polymer composites, owing to growing environmental concerns. Natural fibers are becoming increasingly popular due to their outstanding properties such as flexibility, strength, compatibility with living creatures, and impact resistance. A notable application of natural fibers is in the medical industry, with the goal of producing cost-effective, sustainable, and long-lasting products. Combining different fibers …

Advanced Lithium-Ion Battery Prognostics: A Comprehensive Review of Machine Learning Approaches for Remaining Useful Life Prediction
Abstract: The lithium-ion battery (LIB), as one of the main sources for portable power systems, has been increasingly popular owing to its widespread applications in electric vehicles, consumer electronics, aerospace and renewable energy. Despite their advantages in high energy density and long cycle life, LIBs suffer from degradation over time of aging and cycling, resulting in loss of performance, safety issues, and economic bottlenecks. Predicting their Remaining Useful Life (RUL) is …
