Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Curvilinear V-grooves are increasingly employed in functional surfaces with applications ranging from fluidics to tribology and optics. Despite their widespread use, the accurate and repeatable fabrication of curvilinear V-grooves remains challenging due to their inherent geometric complexity and the lack of relevant commercial CAD/CAM systems. To address this, the present study proposes a CAD/CAM integrated framework capable of automating the design and fabrication of functional surfaces comprising curvilinear V-grooves generated by multi-axis single-point diamond cutting (SPDC). The framework is organized into three main functional blocks supported by seven secondary modules that encompass the entire process from V-groove geometry definition to cutting. The developed framework was practically validated by fabricating sinusoidal V-grooves on a flat surface and testing the capillary flow functionality of a curvilinear pattern. These results demonstrate the relevance of the integrated framework to curvilinear V-groove fabrication, thereby offering a versatile solution for certain types of surface engineering applications.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
