The MT-NT combinatory approach makes use of both MT and NT tests and avoids any artificial manipulation.It also eliminates the huge combinatorial problem that is created in the combinatory method based upon nodal test or in the serial elimination method in the case of more than one gross errors in a large process system.展开更多

The proposed KBS follow thinking steps of CNC operators when they assess machining parameters described in the CAM (Computer Aided Manufacturing) file before proceeding to CNC machining processes. Also, the decision support system equipped with expert system (ES) has been proposed to realize efficient knowledge capturing system and effective usability of captured knowledge, and to recommend actions and decisions. From the viewpoint of providing useful information, the KBS should be aware of context or constraints in which the user has to deal with. In this study, the usefulness of DSS (Decision Support System) and ES is experimentally evaluated using real cases. Comparing the results of the testing participants with and without the DSS and ES, the effectiveness and usefulness were demonstrated. In addition, it was shown that the proposed system is also useful to narrow the discrepancies between CAM and CNC operators, focusing on CNC milling operations.展开更多

This platform singularity requires integration of multiple CAD (computer assisted design) & FEA (finite element analysis) tools processing in batch mode and driven from a SPIE (single platform integration environment). This first module is also to demonstrate, for an axial turbine disc hub axi-symmetric component, feasibility and usefulness of such a platform at preliminary design stage. Expected benefits of the D & A single platform are to improve output accuracy, reduce cycle time, improve process quality and improve resource productivity.展开更多
