Gating Systems for Sizeable Castings from Al Alloys Cast into Ceramic Moulds In contrast to casting to conventional non-reusable "sand" moulds, for which calculating technique for an optimum design of the gating system is comparatively well-developed, a trial-and-error method is applied mostly for casting to ceramic shell moulds made by the investment casting technology. A technologist selects from gating systems of several types (that are standardized by the foundry mostly) on the basis of experience. However, this approach is not sustainable with ever growing demands on quality of castings and also the economy of their fabrication as well as with new types of complex sizeable castings introduced to the production gradually (by new customers from the aircraft industry above all) any more. The simulation software may be used as a possible tool for making the process of optimising gating systems more effective.

The present work studies the impregnation process through a carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP) during the resin injection filling stage of a vacuum infusion process by using simulation software PAM-RTM. Our work aims to study the resin injection time of carbon fabric composite laminate based on the type of weaving fabrics, permeability and porosity of reinforced fabric and to define the optimal structure of reinforced fabric based on simulation and experimental results. The resin infusion method procured from simulation and experimental results can effectively avoid the high cost caused by the trial-and-error method.

Luminance is an essential quality of a TFT-LCD display. Manufacturers have attempted to improve the soft-to-hard lamination stage to enhance the luminance of their TFT-LCD displays. In addition, many customers have complained about the insufficient luminance of the TFT-LCD displays of the case company. While product engineers have kept tuning the control factors in the soft-to-hard lamination stage through the trial and error method, the improvement of the luminance was not good enough. This study aims to assist the product engineers to fine-tune the settings of the control factors using a new method composed of the Taguchi method, a neural network, and a genetic algorithm. The confirmation experiments showed that the proposed method had increased the average luminance of the TFT-LCD displays from 17.03 to 25.15, which was higher than the required luminance value of 25. As a result, the number of complaints on the TFT-LCD displays had been significantly reduced.

The article focuses on the problems of translation in the field of hermeneutics, understood as a methodology in the activity of an interpreter, the doctrine of the interpretation of texts, as a component of the transmission of information in a communicative aspect. The relevance of the study is caused by the special attention of modern linguistics to the under-researched issues of hermeneutics related to the problems of transmission of foreign language text semantics in translation. The process of translation in the aspect of hermeneutics is regarded as the optimum search and decision-making process, which corresponds to a specific set of functional criteria of translation, which can take many divergent forms. The translator carries out a number of specific translation activities: the choice of linguistic means and means of expression in the translation language, replacement and compensation of nonequivalent units. The search for the optimal solution itself is carried out using the “trial and error” method. The translator always acts as an interpreter. Within the boundaries of a individual utterance, it must be mentally reconstructed as conceptual situations, the mentally linguistic actions of the author, which are verbalized in this text.

The determination of a pair of fundamental units in a totally real cubic field involves two operations—finding a pair of independent units (i.e. such that neither is a power of the other) and from these a pair of fundamental units (i.e. a pair ε1; ε2 such that every unit of the field is of the form with rational integral m, n). The first operation may be accomplished by exploring regions of the integral lattice in which two conjugates are small or else by factorizing small primes and comparing different factorizations—a trial-and-error method, but often a quick one. The second operation is accomplished by obtaining inequalities which must be satisfied by a fundamental unit and its conjugates and finding whether or not a unit exists satisfying these inequalities. Recently Billevitch ((1), (2)) has given a method, of the nature of an extension of the first method mentioned above, which involves less work on the second operation but no less on the first.

The design of extrusion dies depends on the experience of the designer. After the die has been manufactured, it is tested during an extrusion process and machined several times until it works properly. The die is designed by a trial and error method which is expensive interms of time consumption and the amount of scrap. Research is going on to replace the trial pressing with finite element simulations that concentrate on material and tool analysis. In order to validate the tool simulations, an experiment is required for measuring the deformation of the die. Measuring the deformation of the die is faced with two main obstacles: high temperature and little free space. To overcome these obstacles a method is tried, which works by applying a laser beam on a reflecting surface. This cheap method is simple, robust and gives good results. This paper describes measuring the deformation of a flat die used to extrude a single U shape profile. In addition, finite element calculation of the die is performed. Finally, a comparison is performed between experimental and numerical results.

In this letter, a non-reciprocal filter with enhanced directivity is analyzed methodically and the filter parameters are optimized using an evolutionary algorithm. The return loss, insertion loss, and isolation characteristics of the filter exhibit a trade-off that makes manual tuning a trial-and-error method. The veracity of the numerical modeling is conformed by designing a 150 MHz lumped element non-reciprocal bandpass filter based on the parameters extracted using an evolutionary algorithm based particle swarm optimization (PSO). The simulated and measured results comply well with the modeling and the results exhibit maximum directivity of 28.2 dB without degradation in insertion loss (1.1 dB) and return loss (16.2 dB) within the passband. The algorithm can be utilized in designing non-reciprocal filters having different center frequencies and bandwidths.

Mathematical model has been proposed for some system that involves a brushed DC motor and it is widely used in industry. Brushed DC motor ideals for applications with a low- torque, manage to change pace or speed and it is widely used in many applications such as x-y table positioning system, conveyor systems and other system that required to use the features that brushed DC motor have. Mathematical model of brushed DC motor in order to verify the performance of the DC motor. In this paper, mathematical model of brushed DC motor will be derived from a brushed DC motor circuit that consist of two parts that are electrical and mechanical part. To validate the functionality of mathematical model, the performance of the brushed DC motor without any controller will be compared with the brushed DC motor with the presence of PI-PD controller that will be tuned by trial-and-error method. Performances of both brushed DC motor with and without controller will be compared in terms of transient response which are, rise time, Tr, settling time, Ts, steady state error, ess and lastly percentage overshoot. At the end of the study, the brushed DC motor with PI-PD controller show a better performance compared to the brushed DC motor without any controller.
