Facile Fabrication of Durable Superhydrophobic Coatings on SS 304 for biomedical applications
Abstract: A simple and effective method to fabricate durable superhydrophobic coatings by combining shot-blasting and depositing sol-gel nanocomposite coatings on stainless steel SS 304 substrates has been investigated. Shot-blasting was used for two purposes; 1) as a method of physical modification for creating microscale roughness on the substrate and 2) for improving the adhesion of the nanocomposite coatings deposited thereafter. Organic-inorganic hybrid hydrophobic silica sol was synthesized where silica nanoparticles were …

A Modified Memetic Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm for Sustainable Multi-objective Scheduling of Automatic Guided Vehicles in a Flexible Manufacturing System
Abstract: In the present work, a modified memetic particle swarm optimization (MMPSO) algorithm was applied for a sustainable multi-objective scheduling of automatic guided vehicles AGVs in a flexible manufacturing system (FMS). To achieve sustainable scheduling results for AGVs in FMS, it is imperative to integrate the work center schedule with the AGV schedule, and thereafter, minimize their distance travel and back-tracking in the FMS facility. The work center schedule in the …
