APPLICATION OF DIMENSIONAL ANALYSIS FOR MODELING MANUFACTURING PROCESSES: A REVIEW

Abstract

Dimensional analysis is a tool used to understand and analyze various problems in engineering. This analysis is useful for calculating dimensionless parameters and gives an answer as to which group of parameters affects the problem. Dimensional analysis can be represented using Buckingham's π-theorem. This paper provides an overview of the literature on the application of dimensional analysis and Buckingham's π theorem for various processing processes. The review period is observed in the period from 2007 until today. The main focus remains of the production process, performance and parameters of process, dimension and years of publication. Review work in this area aims to provide ready-made information in one place that can be very useful to future researchers in this direction of research.
