This paper presents a comparison of degree of freedom (DOF) based math models, viz.,
tolerance-maps, deviation domain, and TTRS, which have shown most potential for …

In product design and quality improvement fields, the development of reliable 3D machining
variation models for multi-station machining processes is a key issue to estimate the …

The complexity of a multi-stage machining process makes it very difficult to assess process
plans, from a geometrical point of view. Today, repeated trial runs or very simple simulations …

Designing a new product in an industrial context supposes to be certain to be able to
produce it according to a level of quality and controlled cost. To achieve this goal, it is …

The vortex tube is a mechanical device with no moving parts that can separate a
compressed gas into a hot and a cold stream. Pressurized gas is injected tangentially into a …

Variation propagation modeling of multistage machining processes enables variation
reduction by making an accurate prediction on the quality of a part. Part quality prediction …

The aim of this paper is to study the modeling method of the geometric variations which
occur at the successive set-ups of the machining process by relying on the small …

In this work, a dynamic matlab Simulink model of an H3-350 reformed methanol fuel cell
(RMFC) stand-alone battery charger produced by Serenergy® is developed on the basis of …

To verify the capacity of a manufacturing process to realize corresponding parts it is
necessary to simulate the defects that it generates and to analyze the correspondence of …

When a new product is designed in an industrial context, it must be possible to produce this
product with the desired level of quality and at an acceptable cost for the market. One of the …
