Most of the past efforts for the environmental impact assessment has been carried out based on the manufactured product. Environmental improvement strategies intertwined with the product design will be more effective as ...

The article aims at quantifying and controlling the measurement uncertainties contributed by the workpiece orientation during the automated inspection of a circular geometry by using Coordinate Measuring Machines. The paper ...

Cyber physical production system (CPPS) is a key enabling technology of Industry 4.0 that plays an important role in improving the efficiency, quality, productivity, and sustainability of production systems, resulting in ...

Robot failures at stations pose a major challenge to the smooth functioning of fully automated assembly lines in an industry 4.0 environment. A probable solution to this problem is a redundant configuration wherein downstream ...

Understanding buckling and postbuckling characteristics of composite plates is essential to ensure lightweight, safe and optimized design of aerospace, marine and civil structures under in-plane loads. The main contribution ...

This chapter presents a case study approach for Modelling and Simulation of Random Excitation Technique for Measurement of Acoustic Properties like acoustic impedance and reflection coefficient. The basic theory, experimental ...

We present the development of an in-house fluid-structure interaction (FSI) solver and employ the solver for state-of-the-art applications in energy harvesting. An implicit partitioned approach is utilized to couple a ...

We numerically study the effect of the shape of frontbody and afterbody on the flow past a cylinder at a Reynolds number of 100. Two-dimensional simulations have been carried out using an in-house sharp-interface immersed ...

We numerically study flow-induced vibrations (FIV) of an elastic cantilevered plate in a cross-flow configuration. The plate is kept upright in an open domain with a fixed bottom end. Such a configuration eliminates energy ...

MEMS Gyros are the emerging technology for sensing angular motion of the platform they are installed on. The biggest advantages they offer is their low size, weight, cost and power consumption. In this paper we present a ...
