Metalografi is the discipline to learn all types of microstructures of metals and its alloys and the nonmetals. Nonmetals that are included are polymers‚ composites and ceramics. In metalografi‚ the range of structures that can be observed. From large to very small. We can use our eyes for observing the rust‚ cracks and holes. In addition we can also identify any atoms and dislocations by using electron microscopy and x-ray analysis with the right techniques and accurate. Grain size and shape‚ porosity

The interesting events from CoBot’s standpoint are those‚ which were not expected or least expected to happen‚ from the CoBot’s past task execution data. We define these interesting events as anomalies-- deviation from the expected data. The expected value for an event can be computed from the respective log table‚ we create by analyzing the bag files. Using the expected data we identify the instances which are anomalies‚ and verbalize them comparing it with a past instance or the expected data for

ABSTRACT: Cutting and trimming of CFRP laminates with high dimensional accuracy is highly essential for applications like aerospace industry. Non-conventional machining techniques provide a good solution for this problem in which automation‚ precision and dimensional accuracy can be easily achieved. Among them‚ Abrasive Water Jet cutting proves to be a promising area since there is no possibility of thermal damage to the material. AWJ cutting belongs to the mechanical group of non-conventional techniques
