HockenEEC-9903838This project is funded as a part of the EEC initiative on Research Centers - Small Firms Collaborative R&D. The cooperating partners are the University of North Carolina at Charlotte (UNC) - Center for Precision Metrology, and Third Wave Systems, Inc., a small firm headquartered in Minneapolis, MN that provides simulation technology for the metal processing industry. The Center and the small firm will jointly develop the science and technology base to machine and model the cutting of ceramic materials. These results will be useful to help manufacturers produce ceramic components for their products. The Center will contribute its expertise in the areas of precision machining and metrology, materials characterization, and finite element analysis. Third Wave will provide the Center with its software for this project and provide training as part of their in-kind contribution to the project. Third Wave has extensive experience with modeling metal cutting operations. However, Third Wave does not have experience with modeling the machining of ceramics such as silicon nitride. The collaborative R&D will afford Third Wave the opportunity to be directly involved in the research effort to develop a machining simulation package for ceramic workpieces such as silicon nitride. The work is an outgrowth of over two years of discussion between UNC and Third Wave to establish a joint collaborative effort. The interest has always been and continues to be very high, but the hurdles from both the small firm and the university have been sufficiently high to prevent any progress. The usual problems such as lack of financial resources and personnel availability have kept us from realizing any advances towards a viable research program. Two of the Center's affiliates, Caterpillar and Cummins, have expressed an interest in the modeling of ceramic machining. Both companies have contributed to the Center's ceramic machining project.

Hockeneec -9903838这项项目作为EEC研究中心的一部分 - 小型公司合作研发。 合作伙伴是北卡罗来纳大学夏洛特大学（UNC） - 精密计量学中心和第三波系统公司，这是一家总部位于明尼苏达州明尼阿波利斯市的小公司，为金属加工行业提供模拟技术。 中心和小型公司将共同开发科学技术基础，以使陶瓷材料的切割和建模。 这些结果将有助于制造商生产其产品的陶瓷组件。 该中心将在精确加工和计量，材料表征和有限元分析方面贡献其专业知识。 第三波将为中心提供其该项目的软件，并为其对项目的实物贡献提供培训。 第三波在建模金属切割操作方面具有丰富的经验。 但是，第三波在建模陶瓷（例如氮化硅）的加工方面没有经验。 该协作研发将为第三波浪潮提供直接参与研究工作的机会，以开发用于陶瓷工件（例如硝酸盐）的加工仿真软件包。 这项工作是UNC和第三波之间的两年讨论的产物，以建立共同的合作努力。 兴趣一直是并一直很高，但是小公司和大学的障碍都足够高，可以防止任何进步。 通常的问题，例如缺乏财务资源和人员可用性，使我们无法意识到对可行的研究计划的任何进步。 该中心的两个分支机构Caterpillar和Cummins对陶瓷加工的建模表示了兴趣。 两家公司都为该中心的陶瓷加工项目做出了贡献。
