Towards a Markerless 3D Pose Estimation Tool

April 28, 2023
Author(s)
Amaan Rahman, Mili Shah, Ya-Shian Li-Baboud, Ann Virts
Evaluation of exoskeleton performance benefts from standards to verify proper functionality and safety. Currently, there are limited evaluation methods for exoskeletons. Measurement methods to evaluate human-exoskeleton kinematics include optical tracking

Bearing area curve based partitioning for the verification of theoretical supplemental geometry on additively manufactured lattice structures

April 25, 2023
Author(s)
Maxwell R. Praniewicz, Jason Fox, Lucas Fournet-Fayard, Charles Cayron, Imade Koutiri, Anne-Francoise Obaton
The geometrical qualification of additively manufactured lattice structures has largely focused on the measurement of strut diameter, form variations, and surface texture. However, the exterior surfaces of the lattice structure, defined through theoretical

Machine tool calibration: Measurement, modeling, and compensation of machine tool errors

April 20, 2023
Author(s)
Wei Gao, Soichi Ibaraki, Alkan Donmez, D. Kono, J.R.R Mayer, Yuan-Liu Chen, Karoly Szipka, Andreas Archenti, Jean-Marc Linares, N. Suzuki
Advanced technologies for the calibration of machine tools are presented. Kinematic errors independently of their causes are classified into errors within one-axis as intra-axis errors, errors between axes as inter-axis errors, and as volumetric errors. As

Vision-based thermal drift monitoring method for machine tools

April 15, 2023
Author(s)
Gregory W. Vogl, Ainsley Rexford, Zongze Li, Robert Landers, Edward Kinzel, Alkan Donmez, Joe Chalfoun
A method is presented to measure machine tool thermal drift for error compensation. A wireless microscope within a tool holder in the spindle is used to capture videos of image targets attached to the worktable. For each target, one video is captured

A high-strength precipitation hardened cobalt-free high-entropy alloy

April 12, 2023
Author(s)
Matthew Luebbe, Jiaqi Duan, Fan Zhang, Jonathan Poplawsky, Hans Pommeranke, Maalavan Arivu, Andrew Hoffman, Haiming Wen
Recent studies on precipitation-hardened high-entropy alloys (HEAs) demonstrate their high strength and thermal stability, making them promising materials for high-temperature structural applications such as nuclear reactors. However, many existing HEAs

Security Segmentation in a Small Manufacturing Environment

April 6, 2023
Author(s)
Michael Powell, John Hoyt, Aslam Sherule, Lynette Wilcox
Manufacturers are increasingly targeted in cyber-attacks. Small manufacturers are particularly vulnerable due to limitations in staff and resources to operate facilities and manage cybersecurity. Security segmentation is a cost-effective and efficient

Solidification modes during additive manufacturing of steel revealed by high-speed X-ray diffraction

March 1, 2023
Author(s)
Hans-Henrik Konig, Niklas Hollander Pettersson, A Durga, Steven Van Petegem, Daniel Grolimund, Qilin Guo, Chihpin Chuang, lianyi Chen, Christos Oikonomou, Fan Zhang, Greta Lindwall
Solidification during fusion-based additive manufacturing (AM) is characterized by high solidification velocities and high thermal gradients, two factors that control the solidification mode of AM metals and alloys. Using two synchrotron-based, in situ

On Migrating ISO 10303 PMI Models to a Common Core

January 4, 2023
Author(s)
Allison Barnard Feeney, Thomas Thurman
Industrial users of ISO 10303 STandard for the Exchange of Product Model Data (STEP) protocols needed the ability to exchange design product data that is in conformance with recently updated ISO geometric product specification (GPS) standards, the American

In-Process Data Integration for Laser Powder Bed Fusion Additive Manufacturing

November 11, 2022
Author(s)
Milica Perisic, Yan Lu, Albert T. Jones
Additive manufacturing (AM) is a powerful technology that can create complex metallic parts and has the potential to improve the economic bottom line for various industries. However, due to process instabilities, and the resulting material defects that
