This paper studied the bending analysis of an isotropic rectangular plate for the effects of aspect ratio, shear and deflection on the critical lateral load of the plates using the polynomial shear deformation theory (PSDT). One of the plate is clamped at opposite edge clamped and the other opposite edge simply supported (CSCS). The other…

In this paper, the multi-objective optimization process was applied for the surface grinding process of 3X13 steel using an aluminum oxide grinding wheel (WA46J7V1A). For each experiment, three cutting parameters, including the workpiece velocity, feed rate, and the depth of cut, were controlled to change according to the experimental matrix. At each experiment, surface roughness…

Bearings are the key components of many rotating machines, in which serious failure or even major breakdown may occur due to their abnormal operation and defects. Thus, accurate fault diagnoses of bearing elements are essential for proactive predictive maintenance. However, the using of multiple sensors with high sampling rate reveal considerable shortages in the analysis…

Harmonic distortion is a problem that can be caused by the use of power electronic devices. The effect of harmonics has an impact on changes in the input voltage source waveform which is referred to as wave defects. This incident has an impact on electronic faults and overheating of the power transformer coil as a…

Crowdwork is a system that brings job providers and crowdworkers in a portal. Nowadays, many companies are turning to freelancing rather than hiring full-time employees. In addition, the workers have also switched to working as freelancers. New problems also arise in the crowdwork system. Trust is one of the main issues that arise in the…
