From page 17...
... Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) has performed an independent analysis of the materials needs of the TOF industries based on the road maps, and the results of their analysis were presented to the committee and included in the committee's deliberations (Angelini, 19991.

From page 19...
... Aqueous corrosion occurs wherever water is used for cooling; oxidation occurs whenever steel is exposed to high-temperature oxidizing gases (e.g., in reheat furnaces and caster runout tables)

From page 20...
... This would be an engineered die that would have different material characteristics in various parts of the die to match the specific performance requirements of that area. This would provide greater wear resistance in areas that have a lot of material movement across them and would minimize friction and lubrication needs.

From page 21...
... The road map for the heat treating industry identifies a need for a number of new materials that could operate in higher processing temperatures and the development of compositions optimized for specific heat treatments (ASM Heat Treating Society, ~ 9971. General Motors has been evaluating heat-treatment (carbur~zation)

From page 22...
... These issues include digital product and process modeling capability; materials producibility and affordability; variation and quality control; pollution prevention technologies; and advanced maintenance technologies.

From page 23...
... For example, with ProCast finite element modeling and simulation tools, engineers can visualize possible cracks in casting parts caused by thermal variations in the manufacturing process. The manufacturer can then use these simulation models to assist suppliers in changing mold designs and delivering near-zero-defect casting parts that minimize reworking and defects.

... in product and machine breakdown and on developing smart, reconfigurable monitoring tools to reduce or eliminate production down time and reduce dimensional variations caused by process degradation. Achieving these goals will require intelligent reasoning agents in process controllers to provide proactive maintenance capabilities, such as measurements of performance degradation, fault recovery, self-maintenance, and remote diagnostics.
