    ABSTRACT

    Ceramic coated components have the advantage features of both metal and

    ceramics, i.e. good toughness, high hardness and wear resistance. Despite their

    outstanding characteristics, ceramic materials are not used in many cases due to

    high cost of machining. A major drawback to engineering applications of

    ceramic is due to their brittleness and fracture toughness, which makes themdifficult and costly to machine. In order to study the precision machining

    processes of ceramics like grinding and lapping, number of trial experiments

    were conducted to find out the influence of various cutting parameters on

    surface quality production as well as grinding and lapping performances.

    Surface grinding of ceramic coating materials was done on samples specimens

    coated with Alumina (Al2O3), Alumina-Titania (Al2O3-TiO2) and Partially

    stabilized zirconia (PSZ )using diamond and CBN (cubic boron nitride)

    cracking of surface. In order to study the effect of precision machining

    processes[14-15], experiments were conducted to check the machining

    parameters like surface quality, grinding forces etc. on ceramic coated

    components for different machining conditions.

    The main object of this study is to evaluate the behavior of A, AT, PSZ,

    Super-Z alloy and ZTA ceramic coating materials subjected to differentgrinding conditions. The performance was evaluated by measuring grinding

    force [14], surface finish [8-9] and bearing area characteristics and also using oil

    film retainability characteristics.

    1.2 Genetic Programming (GP)

    GP works with a large population of candidate programs and uses the

    Darwinian principle of survival of the fittest to produce successively better

    programs for a given problem and evolves a program that predicts the target

    output from a data file of inputs and outputs [17-19]. The programs evolved by

    GP software Discipulus [20], in this case Java, C/C++ and assemblyinterpreter programs represents a mapping of input to output data. This is done

    by Machine Learning that maps a set of input data to known output data. The

    aims of using the machine learning technique on engineering problems are to

    determine data mining and knowledge discovery. GP provides a significant

    benefit in many areas of science and industry [21-25]. The Discipulus GP [20]

    system uses AIM Learning Technology. AIM stands for AutomaticInduction of Machine Code. AIM Learning and Discipulus deal with the

    machine learning speed problem. This speed allows the analyst to able to makemany more runs to investigate relationships between data and output, assess

    information content of data streams, uncover bad data or outliers, assess time

    lag relationships between inputs and outputs, and the like. The evolved modelshave been used to develop process prediction or to control algorithms. Hence

    GP technology has been selected for the present work.

    GP solutions are computer programs that can be easily inspected,

    documented, evaluated, and tested. The GP solutions are easy to understand the

    nature of the derived relationship between input and output data and to examine

    the uncover relationships that were unknown before. Genetic Programming

    evolves both the structure and the constants to the solution simultaneously.

    Discipulus GP strongly discriminates between relevant input data and inputs

    that have no bearing on a solution [20]. In other words, Discipulus performs

    input variable selection as a by-product of its learning algorithm.

    The following step by step procedure will be implemented for a steady state

    GP algorithm [17-19].

    1. Initialization of population: Generate an initial population of random

    compositions of the functions and terminals of the problem (computer

    programs).

    2. Fitness evaluation: Execute each program in the population, randomly it

    selects some programs and assign it a fitness value according to how well it

    solves the problem by mapping input data to output data. Some programs are

    selected as best programs (winner programs)

    3. Create a new population of computer programs by exchanging parts of the

    best programs with each other (called crossover).

    4. Copy the best existing programs.

    5. Create new computer programs by randomly changing each of the

    tournament winners to create two new programs mutation.

    6. Iterate Until Convergence. Repeat steps two through four until a program is

    developed that predicts the behavior sufficiently.

    GP has been successfully used to solve problems in a wide range of broad

    categories [17-26]:

    1. Systems Modelling, Curve Fitting, Data Modelling, and Symbolic

    Regression

    2. EXPERIMENTAL PROCEDURE

    Three different commercially available ceramic coating powder materialsnamely, Alumina (Al2O3), Alumina-Titania (Al2O3-TiO2), Partially StabilizedZirconia (PSZ) were used for the preparation of coatings [3] &[7]. A 40 KWSulzer, Metco plasma spray system with 7MB gun is used for this plasmaspraying of coatings. Mild steel plates of 50x50x6 mm were used as substrate

    to spray the ceramic oxides. They were grit blasted, degreased and spray coatedwith a 50 to 100 microns Ni Cr Alumel bond coat. The above ceramic materialswere then plasma sprayed using optimum spray parameters.

    2.1 Precision Machining of Ceramic Coating

    Grinding: Using diamond and CBN grinding wheels [20] with the surface

    grinding trials were conducted with the grinding conditions mentioned below intable 1. Machining trials were conducted on different ceramic coated

    specimens (A, AT and PSZ ceramic coatings).

    The main object of this study is to evaluate the behavior of A, AT and PSZ

    ceramic coatings subjected to different grinding conditions. The performance

    [14] was evaluated by measuring

    1. Grinding force ( both normal and tangential forces)

    2. Surface finish produced which also includes the bearing area

    characteristics

    2.2 Force Measurement

    The normal grinding force (Fn) and the tangential force (Ft) were measuredusing grinding dynamometer [14].The ground samples were measured for

    different surface finish parameters such as Ra, Rt, and tp values using Taylor

    Hobsons stylus tracing profilometer.

    2.3 Lapping

    A circular disc of 50 mm in diameter made of bright steel was coated with

    NiCrAlumel bond coat of thickness 75m and subsequently coated withdifferent ceramic coating materials namely, Alumina (A), Alumina-Titania

    (AT), Partial Stabilized Zirconia (PSZ), Super-Z alloy and ZTA [19-20].

    Samples were initially ground to achiev pre lapping finish and then further

    lapped under the conditions mentioned above in table 2. The process variableschosen were lapping time (ranging 5 to 25 minutes) and size of the diamondabrasives in lapping [5].

    The lapped discs were thoroughly cleaned and measurement in respect of

    surface finish was made using Taylor Hobsons surface finish profilometer.

    3. Genetic Programming Methodology:Genetic programming can be the most general approach among evolutionary

    computation methods in which the coatings subjected to different precision

    machining operations and cutting parameters variation adaptation are those

    hierarchically organized computer programs whose size and form dynamically

    change during simulated evolution. The initial population in GP is obtained bythe creation of random computer programs consisting of available function

    genes from set F and available terminal genes from set T. In Genetic

    programming modelling, it is necessary to select suitable terminal from set F

    and available terminal genes from set f (0)[17-25]. From these, the

    evolutionary process will try to build as fit an organism (i.e. mathematical

    model) as possible for machinability characteristics prediction. The organisms

    consist of both terminal and function genes and have the nature of computer

    programs which differ in form and size.

    In our case the set of terminal genes f (0) is: f (0) = {Process inputs}.The

    selected set of function genes F is: F = {+, -, *, /}, where +,-,*, / are the

    mathematical operation of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.The quality of the individual organism (i.e. prediction) is found out using

    fitness function. In our case, four different functions are used.

    4 CONCLUSIONOxide ceramics such as Alumina (A), Alumina-Titania (AT) and Partial

    stablized zirconia (PSZ), have been widely used for many industrial

    applications by deposition of thick film of hard materials on a relatively softer

    substrate of the engineering components. Before deciding on the selection of

    coatings, it is essential to look into its characteristics which also includes its

    machinability for control of size and shape of end products. The above work

    was taken up as product development of ceramic coated surfaces are having

    immense value for industrial applications.

    In this paper, the genetic programming was used for predicting the

    machinability of ceramic materials. In the proposed concept the mathematicalmodels for verifying the machinability are subject to adaptation. After many

    trials, with the help of validation and testing data, the fittest model reliability is

    98%. Thus, in this case the reliability was almost 100%. Some of genetically

    developed models of cutting parameters of precision machining of ceramic

    oxide coatings, out of many successful solutions are presented here. The

    accuracies of solutions obtained by GP depend on applied evolutionary

    parameters and also on the number of measurements and the accuracy of

    measurement. In general, more measurements supply more information to

    evolution which improves the structures of models and we have provided

    enough data.

    In this paper, the genetic programming was used for predicting theMachinabiliy characteristics for verifying the experimental results of Cuttingparameters which are subject to adaptation. Its reliability is approximately 98%

    in the prediction of various outputs of results. In the testing phase, thegenetically produced model gives the same result as actually found out during

    the experiment, with the reliability of almost cent percent. It is inferred fromour research findings that the genetic programming approach could be well

    used for the prediction of Machinability characteristics of ceramic coatings

    without conducting the experiments. This helps to establish efficient planning

    and optimizing of process for the quality production of ceramic coatings

    depending upon the functional requirements. Further work is on progress, for

    the prediction/optimization of mechanical and tribological characteristics of

    Industrial ceramic coatings by developing a mathematical model.
