    The aim of this study is to improve the general understanding of tungsten carbide (WC–Co) tool wear under dry machining of the hard-to-cut titanium alloy Ti6Al4V. The chosen approach includes experimental and numerical tests. The experimental part is designed to identify wear mechanisms using cutting force measurements, scanning electron microscope observations and optical profilometer analysis. Machining tests were conducted in the orthogonal cutting framework and showed a strong evolution of the cutting forces and the chip profiles with tool wear. Then, a numerical method has been used in order to model the machining process with both new and worn tools. The use of smoothed particle hydrodynamics model (SPH model) as a numerical tool for a better understanding of the chip formation with worn tools is a key aspect of this work. The redicted chip morphology and the cutting force evolution with respect to the tool wear are qualitatively compared with experimental trends. The chip formation mechanisms during dry cutting process are shown to be quite dependent from the worn tool geometry. These mechanisms explain the high variation of the experimental and numerical feed force between new and worn tools

    In response to the 2013 Update of the European Strategy for Particle Physics (EPPSU), the Future Circular Collider (FCC) study was launched as a world-wide international collaboration hosted by CERN. The FCC study covered an energy-frontier hadron collider (FCC-hh), a highest-luminosity high-energy lepton collider (FCC-ee), the corresponding 100 km tunnel infrastructure, as well as the physics opportunities of these two colliders, and a high-energy LHC, based on FCC-hh technology. This document constitutes the third volume of the FCC Conceptual Design Report, devoted to the hadron collider FCC-hh. It summarizes the FCC-hh physics discovery opportunities, presents the FCC-hh accelerator design, performance reach, and staged operation plan, discusses the underlying technologies, the civil engineering and technical infrastructure, and also sketches a possible implementation. Combining ingredients from the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the high-luminosity LHC upgrade and adding novel technologies and approaches, the FCC-hh design aims at significantly extending the energy frontier to 100 TeV. Its unprecedented centre-of-mass collision energy will make the FCC-hh a unique instrument to explore physics beyond the Standard Model, offering great direct sensitivity to new physics and discoveries

    We review the physics opportunities of the Future Circular Collider, covering its e+e-, pp, ep and heavy ion programmes. We describe the measurement capabilities of each FCC component, addressing the study of electroweak, Higgs and strong interactions, the top quark and flavour, as well as phenomena beyond the Standard Model. We highlight the synergy and complementarity of the different colliders, which will contribute to a uniquely coherent and ambitious research programme, providing an unmatchable combination of precision and sensitivity to new physics

    In response to the 2013 Update of the European Strategy for Particle Physics, the Future Circular Collider (FCC) study was launched, as an international collaboration hosted by CERN. This study covers a highest-luminosity high-energy lepton collider (FCC-ee) and an energy-frontier hadron collider (FCC-hh), which could, successively, be installed in the same 100 km tunnel. The scientific capabilities of the integrated FCC programme would serve the worldwide community throughout the 21st century. The FCC study also investigates an LHC energy upgrade, using FCC-hh technology. This document constitutes the second volume of the FCC Conceptual Design Report, devoted to the electron-positron collider FCC-ee. After summarizing the physics discovery opportunities, it presents the accelerator design, performance reach, a staged operation scenario, the underlying technologies, civil engineering, technical infrastructure, and an implementation plan. FCC-ee can be built with today’s technology. Most of the FCC-ee infrastructure could be reused for FCC-hh. Combining concepts from past and present lepton colliders and adding a few novel elements, the FCC-ee design promises outstandingly high luminosity. This will make the FCC-ee a unique precision instrument to study the heaviest known particles (Z, W and H bosons and the top quark), offering great direct and indirect sensitivity to new physics

    Modelisation et optimisation de la trempe de contour des pièces dentées

    RÉSUMÉ:- En général, les mécaniciens mettent en œuvre, pour assurer la fiabilité et la pérennité, des machines qu'ils conçoivent. Et pourtant, des défauts (déformation, fissures et irrégularité des profondeurs trempées) surviennent, tantôt de façon aléatoire, tantôt de façon répétée. Après avoir traité la trempe superficielle par induction des pièces de géométries simples (cylindriques) [1], nous proposons donc de traiter la trempe de contour des pièces dentées de type engrenages, roues dentées, …, et plus précisément le profil des dents d'une roue dentées. Dans cet article nous présenterons une approche intéressante basée sur la recherche d'une fréquence optimale du générateur. Nous faisons appel à trois techniques variées : Trempe de contour mono fréquence, Trempe bi-fréquences et Trempe bi-fréquences bi-couches pour en choisir la meilleure description du contour trempé. le choix définitif de la technique sera confirmé, à la fin de ce travail, par une simulation et traitement d'un pignon. Mots clés : Chauffage inductif, Trempe de contour, fréquence optimale, engrenage. ABSTRACT:- In general, mechanics put in work to assure reliability and the everlastingness of machines that they conceive. And yet, of defaults (distortion, cracks and irregularity of quenched depths) occur, soon of uncertain way, soon of repeated way. After have treated the superficial quench by induction of the simple geometry pieces (cylindrical) [1], we propose to treat the quenching contour of toothed pieces type gearings, toothed wheels, therefore…, more precisely the profile of teeth of a wheel. In this paper we will present an approach interesting based on the research of an optimal frequency of the generator. We make call to three varied techniques: Quenching of contour mono frequency, Quenching bi-frequency and Quenching bi-frequency bilies to choose the best description of the contour quenched. Key Words: Inductive heating, Quenching of contour, optimal frequency, gearing African Journal of Science and Technology Vol.4(2) 2003:95-10
