The present study attempts to find the optimal level of machining parameters for multi-performance characteristics in turning of Al-SiC-Gr hybrid composites using grey-fuzzy algorithm. The hybrid composites with 5%, 7.5% and 10% combined equal mass fraction of SiC-Gr particles were used for the study and their corresponding tensile strength values are 170, 210, 204 MPa respectively. Al-10%(SiC-Gr) hybrid composite provides better machinability when compared with composites with 5% and 7.5% of SiC-Gr. Grey-fuzzy logic approach offers improved grey-fuzzy reasoning grade and has less uncertainties in the output when compared with grey relational technique. The confirmatory test reveals an increase in grey-fuzzy reasoning grade from 0.619 to 0.891, which substantiates the improvement in multi-performance characteristics at the optimal level of process parameters setting.展开更多

According to the characteristics of weld radiograph image, median filter is adopted to reduce the noise with high frequency, then relative gray-scale of image is chosen as fuzzy characteristic, and image gray-scale fuzzy matrix is constructed and suitable membership function is selected to describe edge characteristic. A fuzzy algorithm is adopted for enhancing radiograph image processing. Based on the intensity distribution characteristic in weld, methodology of weld extraction is then designed. This paper describes the methodology of all the weld extraction, including reducing noise, fuzzy enhancement and weld extraction process. To prove its effectiveness, this methodology was tested with 64 weld negative images available for this study. The experimental results show that this methodology is very effective for extracting linear weld.展开更多
