Prediction of Hotspots in Injection moulding by Using Simulation, In-mould Sensors, and Machine Learning /
(IEEE, 2023-07-03)Injection moulding is an industrial process for the mass production of plastic components, with many parameters affecting the quality of this process. Hotspot regions in the component occur due to non-optimised process ... -
CFD Prediction of Turbulent Convective Heat Transfer in Additive Manufactured Rough Channels /
(American Society Of Thermal And Fluids Engineering, 2022-05-15)Due to the physical phenomena involved in Powder Bed Fusion (PBF) processes, the surface of the manufactured product is naturally rough, significantly impacting the characteristics of fluid flow and heat transfer over ... -
Study of the drug release profile of novel polymer-drug matrix formulations prepared by hot melt extrusion /
(International Manufacturing Conference, 2021-09-07)Hot Melt Extrusion (HME) is an emerging technology in the pharmaceutical industry for manufacturing drug delivery devices. In the HME process, the polymer and drug are melted and mixed with the help of heat and mechanical ... -
Lead-free thick-film ultrasound sensors for industrial process monitoring /
(SEIA, 2022-09-21)Sol-gel high-temperature ultrasound transducers (HTUT) have been developed to compensate for the limitations present in many commercial ultrasound sensors, such as limited temperature durability and limited frequency ... -
Machine vision for the quality assessment of emulsions in pharmaceutical processing /
(IEEE, 2018-10-21)Emulsion quality evaluation using machine vision techniques depends on the efficiency of the image segmentation algorithms. Two different machine vision techniques are investigated to determine their competency in ... -
Comparison of Intelligent Approaches for Cycle Time Prediction in Injection Moulding of a Medical Device Product /
