Forthcoming and Online First Articles

International Journal of Nanomanufacturing

International Journal of Nanomanufacturing (IJNM)

Forthcoming articles have been peer-reviewed and accepted for publication but are pending final changes, are not yet published and may not appear here in their final order of publication until they are assigned to issues. Therefore, the content conforms to our standards but the presentation (e.g. typesetting and proof-reading) is not necessarily up to the Inderscience standard. Additionally, titles, authors, abstracts and keywords may change before publication. Articles will not be published until the final proofs are validated by their authors.

Forthcoming articles must be purchased for the purposes of research, teaching and private study only. These articles can be cited using the expression "in press". For example: Smith, J. (in press). Article Title. Journal Title.

Online First articles are published online here, before they appear in a journal issue. Online First articles are fully citeable, complete with a DOI. They can be cited, read, and downloaded. Online First articles are published as Open Access (OA) articles to make the latest research available as early as possible.

Open AccessArticles marked with this Open Access icon are Online First articles. They are freely available and openly accessible to all without any restriction except the ones stated in their respective CC licenses.

  • Identifying assembly features within threaded components using intelligent detection with YOLOv5s   Order a copy of this article
    by Zhuo Nan Yu, Tao Liu, Zhaofeng Chen, Ziyan Zhang, Chunlin Tian 
    Abstract: Addressing the challenge of localizing threaded components during assembly, we propose Yolo-DH, a detection model based on an enhanced Yolov5s. To achieve lightweighting and optimize efficiency, we introduce the Ghost module in Yolov5s and integrate the CBAM attention mechanism for enhanced feature extraction. This improved model serves as a student model for knowledge distillation, boosting target detection accuracy. Rigorous experiments on the same dataset show notable improvements: 2.3% increase in mAP, 19.4% reduction in Params, 35.2% reduction in Flops, and 0.2ms decrease in average detection time compared to Yolov5s. These enhancements maintain higher detection accuracy while achieving model lightweighting. The resulting model is suitable for intelligent recognition in threaded components assembly features.
    Keywords: Yolov5; threaded components; knowledge distillation; lightweight model.

  • Simulation and Analytical Study of the Process Parameters of the Press-fit Method   Order a copy of this article
    by Zongqi Gao, Xianyu Meng, Siqi Guan 
    Abstract: To address the challenge of selecting and controlling critical process parameters in the ammunition press loading method, this study investigates the factors influencing the quality of drug particle pressing and forming.Using PBX explosive as a case study, the simulation experiment method is employed. By considering the characteristics of explosives, the PBX explosive powder is simplified into a compressible continuum. A three-dimensional detailed model of the explosive system is established, and finite element simulation of the pressing process is conducted. This approach aims to unveil the correlation between pressure, holding time, and the quality of the pillars. The findings indicate that this research can offer insights for the design and production of ammunition charges, holding practical value.
    Keywords: compaction process; numerical simulation; polymer bonded explosives.

  • Wear Properties of the Metal Cutlery Modified by Nano TiN Based on Increment Theory   Order a copy of this article
    by Guimin Liu  
    Abstract: The metal modified by nano TiN has higher fracture toughness and bending strength, which is more suitable for high-strength steel processing than cemented carbide. Therefore, the wear properties of the metal cutlery modified by nano TiN based on increment theory are analyzed. Starting from the selection of nano-TiN modified metal tool increment materials, the wear properties of nano-TiN and conventional TY14 cemented carbide tools were analyzed and compared under the condition of continuous annealing. From the analysis, under the same processing conditions, the metal cutlery modified by nano TiN has better wear properties.
    Keywords: Increment theory; Nano TiN; Metallic; Waste reduction; Nanostructures.
