This study investigates the optimal abrasive water jet polishing parameters for Zr-based bulk metallic glass (BMG) material by using the Taguchi method. An abrasive water jet polishing (AWJP) system is newly designed and mounted on a machining center. In order to determine the optimal polishing parameters for the Zr-based BMG sample, six polishing parameters, namely the hydraulic pressure, the impact angle, the standoff distance, the abrasive material, the abrasive concentration, and the polishing time, are chosen as the control factors of experiments. The optimal AWJP parameters are determined after carrying out the experiments based on the Taguchi’s L18 orthogonal array experimental results. These optimal parameters are the combination of the hydraulic pressure of 2 kg/cm2, the impact angle of 30o, the standoff distance of 15 mm, the abrasive material of SiC, the abrasive concentration of 1:5, and the polishing time of 60 minutes. The surface roughness is improved from an initial value of Ra = 0.675μm to a final value of Ra = 0.016μm by using the AWJP optimal parameters.

Ultrasonic vibration-assisted machining (UVAM) is an effective and promising technology for processing hard and brittle materials, it has been explored in many experimental and theoretical investigations. In this paper, a study on the erosion performance of monocrystalline silicon with UVAM is presented and discussed. In the erosion experiments, monocrystalline silicon wafers were eroded by the abrasive water jet machine assisted with an ultrasonic vibration system. A contrast experiment was carried out firstly to study the influence of the ultrasonic vibration, and then an orthogonal experiment investigation was carried out to understand the effect of process variables (the abrasive particle diameter, jet impact angle, standoff distance, abrasive mass flow rate and ultrasonic vibration power) on the depth of erosion and material removal rate (MRR). The experimental results revealed that ultrasonic vibration-assisted abrasive water jet erosion (UVA-AWJE) can obviously improve the depth of the erosion and MRR compared with those in traditional AWJE and the variation trends of the effect of the abrasive particle diameter, jet impact angle, standoff distance and abrasive mass flow rate on the erosion performance in UVA-AWJE are very similar to those effect in the traditional AWJ machining.

Combining with the electron microscope analysis of the morphology of incision, the mechanism of abrasive water jet cutting metal materials was carried out to explore, for the rational selection of abrasive jet cutting parameters, to extend its application to provide the basis. Study shows that the abrasive water jet cutting metal materials, the material damage mechanism is mainly to yield deformation and failure and shear of grinding damage, grooving formation is mainly caused by falling impact deformation and furrows grinding.

High-pressure abrasive water jet flushing (HPAWJF) is an effective method used to improve coal seam permeability. In this study, based on the theories of gas flow and coal deformation, a coupled gas-rock model is established to investigate realistic failure processes by introducing equations for the evolution of mesoscopic element damage along with coal mass deformation. Numerical simulation of the failure and pressure relief processes is carried out under different coal seam permeability and flushing length conditions. Distributions of the seepage and gas pressure fields of the realistic failure process are analyzed. The effects of flushing permeability enhancement in a soft coal seam on the gas drainage from boreholes are revealed by conducting a field experiment. Conclusions can be extracted that the gas pressure of the slotted soft coal seam is reduced and that the gas drainage volume is three times higher than that of a conventional borehole. Field tests demonstrate that the gas drainage effect of the soft coal seam is significantly improved and that tunneling speed is nearly doubled. The results obtained from this study can provide guidance to gas drainage in soft coal seams regarding the theory and practice application of the HPAWJF method.

Novel method for the 3D shaping of different materials using a high-pressure abrasive water jet is presented in the paper. For the steering movement process of the jet, a principle similar to the raster image way of record and readout was used. However, respective colors of pixels of such a bitmap are connected with adequate jet feed rate that causes erosion of material with adequate depth. Thanks to that innovation, one can observe spatial imaging of the object. Theoretical basis as well as spatial model of material shaping including steering program is presented in. There are also presented experimental erosion results as well as practical examples of the object’s bas-relief made of metal.

Today, conventional machining with chip or machining without chip machining manufacturing methods is used to bring to the desired dimensions sizes the machines and equipment used in the industry. However, non-traditional manufacturing methods are used in cases where traditional machining manufacturing methods are inadequate. Cutting with water jet which is one of the non-traditional manufacturing methods is commonly used in several fields of industry. Unlike traditional manufacturing methods such as turning and milling, not using of a physical cutting tool is among the advantages of the method. Abrasive water jet manufacturing method was started to be applied by adding abrasive particles in the water jet. Apart from the superior properties of the method, possible damages occur in the water jet nozzle due to processes such as cutting or drilling by applying high pressure. Erosion-corrosion is the leading damage among these damages. In this study, the erosion-corrosion in the nozzle caused by high-pressure water and abrasive during the abrasive water jet cutting process was simulated in the computer environment. In this paper, the erosion rate in the nozzle was calculated as 6,90E-06[Formula: see text]kg/m2[Formula: see text]s. This value was converted as 0,30[Formula: see text]mm (27,09[Formula: see text]mm for yearly) via developed software for 100[Formula: see text]h.

It has been found that the impact performance of water jets can be changed by its properties, which include pressure, additive, and mode of jet. Thus, an abrasive water jet (AWJ) has been developed as a new method. However, there is little research on the effect of abrasive concentration on the impact performance of abrasive jets. Thus, the SPH method is used to establish an abrasive water jet crushing concrete model to study the effect of abrasive concentration on the impact force, concrete internal energy, abrasive particle distribution, crushing depth, and damage and crushing efficiencies under different concrete compressive strengths and abrasive densities. The results indicate that there is little effect of the abrasive concentration on the peak impact force under different compressive strengths and abrasive densities, while the mean impact force tends to increase linearly with the abrasive concentration. The internal energy of the concrete increases stepwise with the abrasive concentration under different compressive strengths and abrasive densities. The concentration of 10%∼20% is the rapid increasing stage. The crushing depth and damage efficiencies are all maximum at a concentration of 20% under different compressive strengths and abrasive densities. After the concrete was impacted by the water from the water jet, it is divided into rebounding particles and intrusive particles. The more the intrusive particles, the easier the concrete to be crushed and damaged.
