This study focuses on optimizing drilling parameters to minimize delamination, circularity error, and cylindricity in natural fiber composites through a comprehensive full factorial Design of Experiments (DoE) combined with Grey Relational Analysis (GRA). The novelty of this work lies in its systematic integration of these methods to evaluate the effects of spindle speed, feed rate, and drill type (HSS, HSS-Co, and Solid Carbide) on hole quality, providing a robust framework for multi-response optimization. Results reveal that feed rate is the most significant factor, with optimal conditions – lower feed rates (0.04 mm/rev) and moderate speeds (1592 rpm) – delivering reduced delamination and improved hole quality. Among the tested drills, Solid Carbide demonstrated superior performance with the lowest delamination and cylindricity errors. This study highlights the potential of systematic parameter optimization to advance eco-friendly composite manufacturing and enhance drilling precision.

The industry is currently experiencing a significant interest in biocomposites, largely fueled by the growing appeal of natural fiber-reinforced composites (NFRCs). These composites provide a range of advantages, including cost-effectiveness, biodegradability, environmental sustainability, and favorable mechanical properties. Consequently, the manufacturing processes of natural fiber reinforced polymer (NFRP) composites have attracted the attention of both industry professionals and researchers. The rise of these eco-friendly materials in the automotive and aerospace sectors has intensified interest in their production methods. However, the machining of NFRP composites presents considerable challenges due to the intricate structure of natural fibers, necessitating in-depth studies to effectively tackle these issues. This research paper offers a detailed examination of surface roughness during the milling process of Alfa/epoxy biocomposites. A total of 100 experimental trials were conducted to assess surface roughness. To develop a predictive model for this metric, a hybrid approach known as ANN-GA (artificial neural networks-genetic algorithms) is proposed. This method integrates ANN and GA to establish an optimal neural network architecture. The performance of the ANN-GA model is evaluated against the Levenberg– Marquardt backpropagation (LM) algorithm, with results indicating that the ANN-GA model provides superior accuracy in predicting surface roughness compared to the LM algorithm

In order to better understand the mechanical behavior of the composite material composed of luffa, jute fibers, and epoxy resin under tensile stress, we conducted an in-depth experimental study. This study focuses on analyzing the influence of different reinforcement percentages, consisting of jute fibers (in a bidirectional fabric form) and luffa fibers, which form a complex three-dimensional fiber network. These reinforcements were incorporated into the composite in varying proportions ranging from 5% to 15%, to assess their impact on the overall mechanical properties of the material under tensile conditions. Tensile tests were performed at a constant speed of 5 mm/min, enabling precise evaluation of the material's response under stress. The mechanical properties investigated include tensile strength, elongation at break, the coefficient of contraction, and Young's modulus. These key parameters were analyzed to gain a better understanding of the composite’s performance, particularly in terms of resistance and deformation under mechanical stress. The results obtained were in line with expectations, confirming that the mechanical behavior of the composite is significantly influenced by the reinforcement content and type, presenting promising prospects for optimizing these materials in various structural applications.

This study presents a method for modelling, predicting, and evaluating the impact of drill materials on the drilling process of hybrid palm/jute polyester composites, with the aim of enhancing hole quality regarding delamination, circularity, and cylindricity. Three drill materials, including High-Speed Steel (HSS), 5 % Cobalt-coated High-Speed Steel (HSS-Co5), and Solid Carbide drills were tested, and their impacts on drilling performance were assessed. Through thorough experimentation and statistical analysis, significant differences in results were observed between HSS drills and both HSS-Co5 and Solid Carbide drills. However, the variation in results between HSS-Co5 and Solid Carbide drill results was minimal. Additionally, the findings highlight notable disparities among drill types concerning uncertainty. The results also indicate that feed rate, drill material, and their interaction play crucial roles in determining drilling efficiency. Specifically, HSS drills consistently outperformed HSS-Co5 and Solid carbide drills, demonstrating superior performance in minimizing delamination, improving circularity, and enhancing cylindricity along with lower uncertainty.

This paper rigorously examines drilling operations in a jute/palm fiber reinforced polyester composite (15 % palm fibers, 15 % jute fibers, 70 % polyester resin, 9 mm thickness), emphasizing factors affecting hole quality. The hole quality was characterized by assessing circularity, cylindricity, and delamination.

Furthermore, a lower feed rate (0.04 mm/rev) to be optimal for minimizing delamination, circularity and cylindricity, underscoring the significance of precise adjustments. The influence of drill types is highlighted, with the High-Speed Steel twist drill emerging as the superior choice, demonstrating enhanced performance. The study also reveals the sensitivity of delamination to feed rate variations, emphasizing its primary role in material damage. Cyclical trends in circularity and cylindricity are observed, with feed rate standing out as the predominant factor affecting precision.

Studying the drilling of a hybrid jute/palm composite material offers significant contributions to sustainable material development. Incorporating renewable jute and palm fibers represents an innovative, eco-friendly approach compared to synthetic composites. This research aims to optimize drilling parameters to reduce defects and evaluate the performance of different drilling tools, crucial for industrial applications. Drilling is performed via three different types of drills bit: High-Speed Steel, HSS-Co5 coated high-speed steel with 5% cobalt, and carbide. The drilling process involves adjusting the feed and rotational speed. Response Surface Methodology (RSM) was used to select drilling settings by validating experimentally obtained data and predicting the behavior of the structure based on cutting circumstances. The findings indicated that the most effective cutting parameters for minimizing delamination are achieved using the HSS drill bit, namely at lower feed and rotational speeds. Delamination remains below the threshold of 1.106 when the feed is 0.04 mm/rev and the rotational speed is 1592 rpm. The analysis of the results obtained using the response surface methodology indicates that the R2 coefficient for cylindricity is 0.96%. In contrast, the rate of delamination is 0.79% and the rate of circularity is 0.89%.

Our study involved a combination of practical experiments and numerical simulations using the Abaqus computational software. The main aim was to enhance our understanding of the mechanical characteristics exhibited by 6082 aluminium alloy when exposed to tensile forces. To achieve this, we produced 18 samples of standardized dimensions utilizing a parallel lathe. These samples then underwent a thermal treatment comprising a solution treatment, water quenching and various tempering procedures at different temperatures (280C, 240C, 200C, 160C and 120C), resulting in a range of hardness levels. To obtain the experimental results, we conducted tensile tests on a specialized machine, which were subsequently supplemented with numerical analyses. By adopting this approach, we gained valuable insights into the behaviour of aluminium alloy 6082, specifically regarding its mechanical properties such as hardness, tensile strength, elongation and necking coefficient. This newfound knowledge holds potential significance in the realm of designing and optimizing aluminium structures that operate within high-temperature environments.

Understanding the mechanical properties of steel is crucial to ensuring the proper functioning of industrial mechanical systems. This study focuses on the tensile behavior and specific mechanical properties of low-alloy steel AISI 4041. It combines practical experiments and numerical simulations using Abaqus software. The experiments involve fabricating 18 standard-sized tensile specimens, followed by a heat treatment including oil quenching and various tempering temperatures (ranging from 350°C to 650°C) to create a range of hardness levels. Tensile tests provided experimental data, subsequently validated by numerical analyses using the eXtended Finite Element Method (XFEM). The results indicate a maximum hardness of 522 HV, maximum tensile load and a maximum tensile strength of 1680 MPa with tempering at 350°C. This approach significantly improved the results, with errors generally below 0.06% for maximum strain and stress. This study provides valuable insights for designing and optimizing low-alloy steel structures suitable for high-temperature environments.

This study investigates drilling-induced damage in hybrid composites, specifically examining the interplay between cutting parameters and hole delamination. Three drill types—high-speed steel (HSS), 5% cobalt-coated high-speed steel (HSS-Co5), and solid carbide—are analyzed for their distinct impacts. The research underscores the substantial influence of feed rate and rotational speed on delamination, noting that increased feed rates exacerbate the issue. Notably, HSS drills exhibit superior performance in mitigating delamination compared to other types. The study unequivocally demonstrates that operating the HSS drill at lower feed rates and rotational speeds significantly minimizes delamination, achieving remarkable results at a feed rate of 0.04 m/rev and 1592.35 rpm. While rotational speed’s consistent significance is limited, with the rotation speed 2388.53 rpm, the delamination factor of the HSS drill recorded the smallest values with all the cutting conditions of the tests carried out. These insights emphasize the critical need for optimized cutting parameters when drilling hybrid composites, providing valuable guidance for engineering applications and materials science.

This work consists of studying the determination of the temperature at the interface in the dry friction of a tribological couple in steel including the pin (fixed) in low alloy AISI 4140 steel against a steel disc (rotating) medium hard carbon AISI 1055. The parameters: Normal load applied, sliding speed, hardness of the material (ranges between 35 HRC and 50 HRC after undergoing tempering heat treatment at temperatures between 250 ºC and 550 ºC) and coefficient of friction resulting from the friction of the couple during the tests, play a very important role on the thermal effects of the surfaces. The Archard model was used to determine the temperature at the interface of the tribological couple, using the parameters mentioned above. The coefficient of friction changes its value between 0,41 to 0,52 and the resulting contact temperature varies between 216 ºC and 313 ºC. The results obtained showed that the contact temperature increase proportionally with the hardness of the pin material. The contact area between disc and pin is inversely proportional to the increase in the hardness of the pin.

This study concerns the wear behaviour of metal couples used in industry, particularly in mechanical sliding systems (numerically controlled machine tools). In general, the nature of the materials of the parts of these systems which are in contact and move relatively, are medium carbon steels, thanks to their good mechanical and tribological properties. The present work aims to study, the dry sliding wear of the contact surface of the pin (machine slide) against the contact surface of a disc (machine groove) and the damage induced on the worn track. The pin is AISI 1038 and AISI 1045 steel, the disc is AISI 1055 steel. The tribological tests were carried out on a pin-disc tribometer, in an atmospheric environment. The wear of the pins being evaluated by weighing and studied according to the hardness of the pin with the variation of the normal load applied. The discussion of the results is based on SEM observations and EDS analyzes of worn surfaces and interfacial phenomena produced by dynamic contact. The results obtained indicated the influence of the applied load and the hardness on the wear of the pin and therefore on the tribological behaviour of the worn surfaces.

The work is to determine contact temperatures using Archard’s theory. Indeed, in a dynamic contact, the rise in the average temperature at the interface depends on several parameters, in particular the normal load and the sliding velocity. The heat transfer depends on the thermal properties of materials and interfaçial films generated by friction. The calculation performed takes into account all these parameters. In addition, knowing the values of the coefficient of friction, a simple calculation allowed us the determination of the real surface of contact.

In the unlubricated sliding wear of steels couples used in industry, the resulting damage to the contact surfaces are among the factors that may be causing a reduction in the effectiveness of the mechanical system or even be the cause of the invalidity of this system. To avoid or at least reduce the harmful consequences, low alloyed steels and carbon steels are the most used metal pairs for manufacturing parts of industrial systems because of their good mechanical and tribological properties. This work aims at studying the tribological behavior in friction and wear and the resulting consequences on the friction surfaces of the pairs of steels as a function of the hardness. To do so, a tribometer of type pin-disc was used. The tests were carried out in a dry atmospheric environment. The pins are of AISI 1045 and AISI 4140 steels of different hardness values, obtained by the application of different degrees of temperature of the tempering after hardening. The disc is a AISI 1055 steel hardened and tempered. The discussion of the results and the analysis of interfacial phenomena induced by dynamic contact are based on observations under a scanning electron microscope (SEM).

In industry, the sliding mechanical systems are subject to friction and wear phenomena. These phenomena can be the origin of a reduction of the efficiency of the mechanical system even to be responsible for its incapacity. Generally, the materials of the parts which are moving relative (tribological couple) of these systems are low alloy steels and carbon steels, thanks to their good mechanical and tribological properties. The present work aimed to study, the surface wear and damage induced by dry sliding of hard carbon steel AISI 1055 (disc) against tempered low alloy steel AISI 4140 (pin) with different hardness and applied loads was investigated. The results revealed that the interaction between the applied load and pin hardness result in complex thermo-mechanical behaviour of the worn surfaces. When a lower hardness pin is used, the main wear mechanisms observed on the discs were abrasion, adhesion, and oxidation. When a higher hardness pin is used, the wear of the discs is governed by delamination, oxidation, and plastic deformation. In particular, third-body wear occurs at high applied load resulting in higher wear rate of high hardness pins compared to low hardness pins.
