Title: Ultraprecision Machining and Replication of Precision Optics
Abstract: Ultraprecision machining, particularly processes at micro and meso scale play an important role in optical, medical and biomedical device fabrication. Successful implementation of these devices depends on two conflicting factors – high quality and low cost. To this end, first ultraprecision machining can be used to guarantee high precision in mold or master fabrication. To reduce production cost, some types of high volume processes such as injection molding, hotembossing, cleanroom and noncleanroom lithography are widely adopted. For example, mold inserts for the entire camera assemblies used in mobile phones are first precision machined then injection molded. Historically, ultraprecision machining such as diamond turning, microgrinding were developed to create components with extremely high geometric tolerance and surface finish. To achieve high productivity, lower production cost, high volume replication processes are introduced. To maintain high quality replication processes, material properties and forming conditions have been the focus of recent investigations using both experimental and numerical modeling approaches. In this presentation, we will review the most recent research activities at Ohio State in ultraprecision machining process – diamond turning process, freeform diamond machining based on slow and fast tool servo processes and lithographic processes which are used to fabricate masters for high volume replication process. In addition, high volume production processes such as compression molding of glass optics, hotembossing and injection molding of precision optics are presented.

Title: Elecro-mechanical analysis of an inclusion with stepwise rigidity between piezoelectric materials
Abstract: Piezoelectric materials are widely used in engineering applications because they produce an electric field when being deformed and undergo deformation when subjected to an electric field. A plane problem for an electrically insulated inclusion at the interface of two piezoelectric semi-infinite spaces under the action of antiplane mechanical and in-plane electric loadings is analyzed. One zone of the inclusion is absolutely rigid while the other part is mechanically soft. The presentations of all electro-mechanical quantities via sectionally-analytic vector-functions are obtained. With use of these presentations, the combined Dirichlet-Riemann boundary value problem is formulated and an exact analytical solution of this problem is presented. Due to this solution, the closed form analytical expressions for the required electro-mechanical quantities along the material interface are derived. Particularly the stress jump along the mechanically rigid part of the inclusion is found and additionally the variation of this stress along its upper face is also given. The values of electromechanical quantities along the corresponding parts of the material interface are presented graphically. Singular points of the shear stress, strain and also the electric displacement and field are found and the corresponding intensity factors are determined. The dependence of the stress intensity factor on the intensity of the electric displacement and the coefficient between the rigid and soft zone lengths are investigated.

Title: Fracture analysis of an electrically conductive interface crack in piezoelectric composites
Abstract: Piezoelectric materials, especially piezoelectric ceramics, have more and more applications in modern technologies due to their inherent electromechanical coupling effect. Typical examples illustrating the use of these materials include transducers, sensors, converters, actuators, and other components of smart structures and systems. These smart devices usually have a composite structure; therefore, because of the brittleness and the low strength of piezoelectric materials, interface delamination can appear during the manufacturing process or during service by impact electric and mechanical loadings. This delamination can lead to interface cracks, which are the most dangerous kind of defects in such structures. In this presentation, a partially electroded interface crack between two different piezoelectric materials under the action of anti-plane mechanical and in-plane electric loadings is analyzed. From the point of view of the boundary conditions on the crack faces, one zone of the crack faces in such crack can be considered as electrically conductive while the other parts are electrically permeable. This leads to a nontrivial mixed boundary value problem which becomes mathematically much more complicated than for uniform ones. An exact analytical solution of this problem is obtained. Analytical expressions for the shear stress, electric field and also for displacement jump of the crack faces are derived. These values are also presented graphically along the corresponding parts of the material interface. The intensity factors for stress and electric fields are determined as well.

Title: Robotic grinding of complex components: A step towards efficient and intelligent machining – challenges, solutions, and applications
Abstract: Robotic grinding is considered as an alternative towards the efficient and intelligent machining of complex components by virtue of its flexibility, intelligence and cost efficiency, particularly in comparison with the current mainstream manufacturing modes. The advances in robotic grinding during the past one to two decades present two extremes: one aims to solve the problem of precision machining of small-scale complex surfaces, the other emphasizes on the efficient machining of large-scale complex structures. To achieve efficient and intelligent grinding of these two different types of complex components, researchers have attempted to conquer key technologies and develop relevant machining system. In this speech, I will present a systematic, critical, and comprehensively review of all aspects of robotic grinding of complex components, especially focusing on three research objectives of challenges, solutions, and applications.
