Large tube type fuel heating furnaces are important and essential equipments, which have a wide range of applications in the petroleum and chemical industry, and failure modes of the furnace tubes in them are mostly caused by carburizing. It is important to improve effective detection technology for the measure of the tube carburized layer thickness, as well as the research on the comprehensive performance of furnace tubes considering the impacts of different conditions. The specifications of Φ70×6 mm HP40Nb cracking furnace tube was studied by experiment method to evaluate the effectiveness of an acoustic emission (AE) technique, which used to measure the carburized layer thickness. In the experiment, many factors were taking into account, such as different carburizing time, the response of acoustic emission attenuation to the organization changes, the magnetic field changes, and additional stress which caused by carburization are considered. The results show that the short periods strong carburizing has obviously impacts in the changes of the organization and magnetic field of the cracking furnace tube, however, it has little contribution to the acoustic emission signal attenuation.

Ultraviolet (UV) Nanoimprint Lithography (NIL) is a replication method that is well known for its capability to address a wide range of pattern sizes and shapes. It has proven to be an efficient production method for patterning resist layers with features ranging from a few hundred micrometers and down to the nanometer range. Best results can be achieved if the fundamental behavior of the imprint resist and the pattern filling are considered by the equipment and process parameters. In particular, the material properties and pattern size and shape play a crucial role. For capillary force-driven filling behavior it is important to understand the influencing parameters and respective failure modes in order to optimize the processes for reliable full wafer manufacturing. In this work, the nanoimprint results obtained for different pattern geometries are compared with respect to pattern quality and residual layer thickness: The comprehensive overview of the relevant process parameters is helpful for setting up NIL processes for different nanostructures with minimum layer thickness.

Concrete three-point bending beams with preexisting cracks are widely used to study the growth process of I-II mixed mode cracks. Studying the failure characteristics of preexisting cracks at different locations on concrete three-point bending beams not only has important scientific significance but also has a wide range of engineering application backgrounds in the safety assessment of engineering structures. In this paper, through several numerical experiments, the influence of preexisting cracks at different positions on the failure characteristics of concrete three-point bending beams is studied, and three typical failure modes are obtained. The failure process of the specimens with three typical failure modes is discussed in detail, and it is pointed out that the crack failure mode is tensile failure. The change trends of bearing capacity, acoustic emission quantity, and acoustic emission energy of three typical failure modes are analyzed. The maximum bearing capacity, the maximum acoustic emission quantity, and energy of three failure modes of concrete three-point bending beams generally show an increasing trend.

The flow, energy distribution and concentrations profiles of Ti ions in cathodic arc are studied by test particle Monte Carlo simulations with considering the mass transfer through the macro-particles filters with inhomogeneous magnetic field. The loss of ions due to their deposition on filter walls was calculated as a function of electric current and number of turns in the coil. The magnetic field concentrator that arises in the bending region of the filters leads to increase the loss of the ions component of cathodic arc. The ions loss up to 80 % of their energy resulted by the paired elastic collisions which correspond to the experimental results. The ion fluxes arriving at the surface of the substrates during planetary rotating of them opposite the evaporators mounted to each other at an angle of 120° characterized by the wide range of mutual overlapping.

AbstractOne of the major questions about magnetic reconnection is how specific solar wind and interplanetary magnetic field conditions influence where reconnection occurs at the Earth’s magnetopause. There are two reconnection scenarios discussed in the literature: a) anti-parallel reconnection and b) component reconnection. Early spacecraft observations were limited to the detection of accelerated ion beams in the magnetopause boundary layer to determine the general direction of the reconnection X-line location with respect to the spacecraft. An improved view of the reconnection location at the magnetopause evolved from ionospheric emissions observed by polar-orbiting imagers. These observations and the observations of accelerated ion beams revealed that both scenarios occur at the magnetopause. Improved methodology using the time-of-flight effect of precipitating ions in the cusp regions and the cutoff velocity of the precipitating and mirroring ion populations was used to pinpoint magnetopause reconnection locations for a wide range of solar wind conditions. The results from these methodologies have been used to construct an empirical reconnection X-line model known as the Maximum Magnetic Shear model. Since this model’s inception, several tests have confirmed its validity and have resulted in modifications to the model for certain solar wind conditions. This review article summarizes the observational evidence for the location of magnetic reconnection at the Earth’s magnetopause, emphasizing the properties and efficacy of the Maximum Magnetic Shear Model.

The speed of drilling has a great relationship with the rock breaking efficiency of the bit. Based on the above background, the purpose of this article is to predict the position of shallow bit based on the vibration signal monitoring of bit broken rock. In this article, first, the mechanical research of drill string is carried out; the basic changes of the main mechanical parameters such as the axial force, torque, and bending moment of drill string are clarified; and the dynamic equilibrium equation theory of drill string system is analyzed. According to the similarity criterion, the corresponding relationship between drilling process parameters and laboratory test conditions is determined. Then, the position monitoring test system of the vibration bit is established. The acoustic emission signal and the drilling force signal of the different positions of the bit in the process of vibration rock breaking are collected synchronously by the acoustic emission sensor and the piezoelectric force sensor. Then, the denoised acoustic emission signal and drilling force signal are analyzed and processed. The mean value, variance, and mean square value of the signal are calculated in the time domain. The power spectrum of the signal is analyzed in the frequency domain. The signal is decomposed by wavelet in the time and frequency domains, and the wavelet energy coefficients of each frequency band are extracted. Through the wavelet energy coefficient calculated by the model, combined with the mean, variance, and mean square error of time-domain signal, the position of shallow buried bit can be analyzed and predicted. Finally, by fitting the results of indoor experiment and simulation experiment, it can be seen that the stress–strain curve of rock failure is basically the same, and the error is about 3.5%, which verifies the accuracy of the model.
