Development of a neural network model to predict distortion during the metal forming process by line heating
(2013-01)
In order to achieve automation of the plate forming process by line heating, it is necessary to know in advance the deformation to be obtained under specific heating conditions. Currently, different methods exist to predict ...
Introduction to the Application of Phase Change Materials under Tropical Climate of Panama
(2019 7th International Engineering, Sciences and Technology Conference (IESTEC)2019 7th International Engineering, Sciences and Technology Conference (IESTEC), 2016-10-09)
Phase change materials (PCM) are materials with the ability to store a large amount of energy (latent heat) during their change from solid to a liquid phase. This takes place at a certain melting temperature. Amid the ...
