Mold steel 3Cr2Mo has been used widely in manufacturing of plastic mold formed parts, owing to fine mechanical properties. However, it is also very difficult to cut mold formed parts of steel 3Cr2Mo due to high hardness. Ordinary NC cutting method of steel 3Cr2Mo is unable to relate to modern mold manufacturing due to bad cutting property, so it is extremely significant for improving cutting property of steel 3Cr2Mo to study the high speed milling technology. On the basis of improving the traditional cutting force formula, the mathematical model of high speed milling force for steel 3Cr2Mo was derived and solved by using the experimental data and constructing matrix equation based on MATLAB software. Comparing with experimental data, the error of mathematical model of high speed milling force could be controlled within 6 percent. Due to high precision the model of high speed milling force can meet practical engineering requirement and has great value in the fields of CAD/CAM/CAE.

Abstract Oil-based drilling fluid (OBDF) is an important means for offshore drilling, but it would affect the cementing quality. Nanoemulsions shows potential for OBDF removal, but how to prepare nanoemulsion meeting the engineering requirement is lack of good understanding. Moreover, nanoemulsions usually behave badly under low/high temperature, which would restrict the application. Revealing removal mechanisms of nanoemulsion and improving nanoemulsion stability at different temperature are of great significance. The nanoemulsion could rapidly spread on the wellbore surfaces, cause the adhering OBDF to curl into little droplets, and solubilize the removed OBDF. The removal efficiency can reach more than 98%. Low temperature and higher concentration of dispersed phase both increased the viscosity of nanoemulsions stabilized by surfactants. PEGs can induce the bridging of emulsion droplets at low temperature, leading to significant increase of nanoemulsions viscoelasticity at low temperature (around 5°C). To control the rheological properties of nanoemulsions, a hydrophobic association polymer, HAAP, was proposed. Nanoemulsions containing HAAP does not gel at low temperature (< 15°C). And the viscoelasticity of nanoemulsions increased slightly when the temperature is higher than 70°C because of the thermoassociating behavior of polymer, which can ensure the stability of the nanoemulsions at high temperature. This paper is helpful to establish a generic route for preparing nanoemulsions with controlled rheological properties under different temperature, which is benefit for their applications in offshore.

According to the special engineering requirement, a novel luffing mechanism with variable degree of freedom is presented in this study. The mechanism is assumed to be an ideal rigid body system and the degrees of freedom in different work conditions are calculated. Then the kinematic equations of mechanism are obtained by the geometrical and motional relationship of the components; meanwhile, the dynamic equations of mechanism are deduced by the Newton's mechanical law. The analytic model can be employed for the calculation and analysis of the mechanism features; furthermore, it can be used for the design of hydraulic and electric control system.

The desert sand from Maowusu sandy land is very fine aggregate. Currently, there are no national specifications concerning the application of desert sand with very fine grain. To apply the desert sand to concrete in civil engineering, concrete specimens made of the desert sand had been tested in order to clarify its engineering characteristics. On the basis of determined chemical composition and physical characteristics of the desert sand, the mechanical properties of concrete made of fine aggregate from Maowusu sandy land were investigated. The results of the tests indicated that the desert sand could be used as a fine aggregate in concrete for general civil engineering. At the same time, the desert sand was used to confect high strength concrete, the strength and workability of which met general engineering requirement, which provided references for high strength concrete preparation in these regions

The burning point of coal sample is a crucial physical property of coal, and it is also a key technical parameter for the exploitation, transportation, and application of coal. The national standard for coal sample burning point detection prescribes a strict rising rate of temperature when coal samples being heated. To meet with this engineering requirement, we introduce a scheme of a coal sample burning point detecting instrument, which is based on an AT89C55 MCU. The characteristics, key techniques, and solutions of the temperature control system are introduced with respect to the instrument. We employ a self-tunning Dahlin controller with a Recursive Least Squares with Exponential Forgetting (RLSEF) algorithm to solve the control problems of this time-delay, big inertia, and time-variable plant (coal sample heating furnace). Simulations show that the self-tunning Dahlin controller is able to not only compensate the time-delay and big inertia of the plant and but also adapt to the variations of plant parameters, so that the requirement for the rising rate of temperature can be fulfilled effectively.

Digital camera is the one of the main devices in the computer and multimedia technology and its color management model is the key to guarantee the color consistency in the succedent image production and transfers. The paper presents a color conversion model for digital camera based on polynomial curve generation. First, color rendering principle of digital camera is analyzed.
