The paper presents the tension regulator of the Shuttle thread of the sewing machine, which consists of an arc-shaped plate spring, has two holes, the first for fixing the screw to the side surface of the bobbin cap and the second for the adjusting screw. In this case, the width of the plate spring along the entire length is the same. A disadvantage of the known design of the Shuttle thread tension regulator is that it is not possible to provide thread tension due to changes in the pressure force of the plate spring along its length in the areas of contact with the thread passing between the plate and the side surface.

Abstract Research in termoacoustics began with the observation of the heat transfer between gas and solids. Using this interaction the intense sound wave could be applied to create engines and heat pumps. The most important part of thermoacoustic devices is a regenerator, where press of conversion of sound energy into thermal or vice versa takes place. In a heat pump the acoustic wave produces the temperature difference at the two ends of the regenerator. The aim of the paper is to find the influence of the material used for the construction of a regenerator on the properties of a thermoacoustic heat pump. Modern technologies allow us to create new materials with physical properties necessary to increase the temperature gradient on the heat exchangers. The aim of this paper is to create a regenerator which strongly improves the efficiency of the heat pump.

Background:: In recent years, there has been a high demand for executing digital signal processing and machine learning applications on energy-constrained devices. Squaring is a vital arithmetic operation used in such applications. Hence, improving the energy efficiency of squaring is crucial. Objective:: In this paper, a novel approximation method based on piecewise linear segmentation of the square function is proposed. Methods: Two-segment, four-segment and eight-segment accurate and energy-efficient 32-bit approximate designs for squaring were implemented using this method. The proposed 2-segment approximate squaring hardware showed 12.5% maximum relative error and delivered up to 55.6% energy saving when compared with state-of-the-art approximate multipliers used for squaring. Results: The proposed 4-segment hardware achieved a maximum relative error of 3.13% with up to 46.5% energy saving. Conclusion:: The proposed 8-segment design emerged as the most accurate squaring hardware with a maximum relative error of 0.78%. The comparison also revealed that the 8-segment design is the most efficient design in terms of error-area-delay-power product.

Multi-material-design offers high potential for weight saving and optimization of engineering structures but inherits challenges as well, especially robust joining methods and long-term properties of hybrid structures. The application of joining techniques like ultrasonic welding allows a very efficient design of multi-material-components to enable further use of material specific advantages and are superior concerning mechanical properties.The Institute of Materials Science and Engineering of the University of Kaiserslautern (WKK) has a long-time experience on ultrasonic welding of dissimilar materials, for example different kinds of CFRP, light metals, steels or even glasses and ceramics. The mechanical properties are mostly optimized by using ideal process parameters, determined through statistical test planning methods.This gained knowledge is now to be transferred to application in aviation industry in cooperation with CTC GmbH and Airbus Operations GmbH. Therefore aircraft-related materials are joined by ultrasonic welding. The applied process parameters are recorded and analyzed in detail to be interlinked with the resulting mechanical properties of the hybrid joints. Aircraft derived multi-material demonstrators will be designed, manufactured and characterized with respect to their monotonic and fatigue properties as well as their resistance to aging.
