The fused deposition modeling (FDM) process, also known as 3D printing, deals with the
manufacture of parts by adding layers of fused filament. Research on manufacturing process …

In this paper, the authors present a stress wave-based active sensing method to detect the
crack in FRP-reinforced concrete beams. The embedded smart aggregates (SAs), which …

Grinding is a manufacturing process that has the objective of granting the workpiece a high-
quality surface and is located at the end of the sequence of machining processes. During …

This paper presents an approach for impedance-based sensor monitoring of dressing tool
condition in grinding by using the electromechanical impedance (EMI) technique. This …

This paper presents a performance assessment of the low-cost thin-disk piezoelectric
diaphragm (PZT) for the surface integrity monitoring in the grinding operation. PZT …

New alternatives for monitoring the ceramic grinding process have been studied. Monitoring
vibration signals is one of the most successful methods because some characteristics that …

Among the methods used in structural health monitoring (SHM), the electromechanical
impedance technique (EMI), which uses piezoelectric transducers of lead zirconate titanate …

The grinding process is usually one of the last stages in the manufacturing process chain
since it can provide superior surface finish and closer dimensional tolerances. However, due …

Elastic emission machining (EEM) is a finishing process for the surface of parts. In the EEM
of ceramic parts, the part is submerged into a liquid interface that contains abrasive particles …

Researchers have evaluated a great number of monitoring techniques in order to control the
surface condition of ground parts. Piezoelectric diaphragm of lead zirconate titanate (PZT) …
