Title: Meshless boundary particle methods for boundary integral equations and meshfree particle methods for plates
Author: Davis, Christopher
Date Created: 2011
Subjects--Topical: Mechanical engineering, Mathematics
Description: For approximating the solution of partial differential equations (PDE), meshless methods have been introduced to alleviate the difficulties arising in mesh generation using the conventional Finite Element Method (FEM). Many meshless methods introd...

Title: A Novel Fluorescence Based Method of Assessing Subsurface Damage in Optical Materials
Author: Williams, Wesley
Date Created: 2009
Subjects--Topical: Mechanical engineering, Materials science, Optics
Description: Lapping and polishing are loose abrasive finishing processes that have been used to achieve critical surface parameters in optical materials for centuries. These processes remove material from the surface through a variety of mechanical and chemic...

Title: Time Domain Approach to Stability in Machining Operations
Author: Berglind, Luke
Date Created: 2015
Subjects--Topical: Mechanical engineering
Description: Machine tool chatter is a common occurrence in machining environments which can lead to undesirable part outcomes and can even cause damage to the machine. Chatter is a result of regenerative dynamic forces inherent in the machining process which ...

Title: Time Domain Simulation with Applications in Compliant Workpiece Milling
