    • Alternate methods for sampling in coordinate metrology 

      C E Collins; E B Fay; J A Aguirre-Cruz; S Raman (Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part B: Journal of Engineering Manufacture, 2007-06-01)
      A variety of inspection equipment exists in industry to capture the points on a surface that will envisage manufacturing form errors. Manufacturing inspection faces a problem of finding optimal methods to capture an evenly ...
    • Analysis of fractal frictional contact in machining 

      S Raman; A Basu; D S Kilic (Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part B: Journal of Engineering Manufacture, 2007-07-01)
      A model of the interfacial frictional conditions at the secondary shear zone in oblique cutting is under development. It has been suggested that the tool-chip interface consists of sticking and sliding microcontacts, each ...
    • Form inspection using kernel methods 

      R C Gilbert; S Raman; T B Trafalis (Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part B: Journal of Engineering Manufacture, 2010-06-01)
      Form inspection of non-linear surfaces is a difficult task as suitable analytical models are often unavailable. This paper presents a mathematical model for surface inspection of face-milled plates and determination of the ...
    • Re-examining the machining frictional boundary conditions using fractals 

      S Raman; J Chellaperumal (Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part B: Journal of Engineering Manufacture, 2002-07-01)
      This paper presents experimental evidence for the existence of non-Euclidean contact geometry at the tool-chip interface in the machining of aluminium alloy, which challenges conventional assumptions. The geometry of contact ...
